Ouch! My CEO Fiancé Fell For His Maid By Lisa Salman Chapter 97
97- Fifth Stick
Ashley Walters pov
The elderly woman was still the same. Except, she was no more wearing the maid uniform. Her white hair was still tied back in a bun. One or two more wrinkles had appeared on her face, but she still was the same. Her posture was straight, at least better than mine, her chin was up and that might be the reason. she still didn’t have a double chin.
“Hello, Ms. Walters.” She said with a cordial smile. Unexpectedly Edith didn’t take time and brought her to me within one hour, “I have heard you want to talk to me?”
They both took their seats before us.
“Please answer whatever she wants to know.” Said Justin sitting beside me. All this time, his hand never left mine, “Also she is NOT Ms. Walters. You can call her Mrs. Deluca.”
The way Justin told her, made my heart flutter in my chest. A smile started teasing the corner of my
mouth.
“Oh,” she nodded in understanding, “I am sorry, Mrs. Deluca,” my heart was racing by now. A person calling me Mrs. Deluca was something I never imagined.
I knew what Justin was trying to do. He was doing everything in his power to win my heart.
“Edith and I think that you heard our conversation when we thought you were sleeping,” Justin turned to me with questions in his eyes. I never told him that I heard something about the curse before.
“Ms. Walters… I mean… please excuse me. Mrs. Deluca. The curse has been with the Deluca family for generations. Deluca people own an empire but always prayed for daughters. They had no problems if instead of a male child, their daughters would inherit their properties. According to the curse, the daughter -in–laws must bear its consequences, but the son–in–laws are safe. If a generation will have a daughter as their first born the spell can be broken.”
What? A firstborn daughter could break the curse? Then why Delucas never went for gender selection?
“I know what you are thinking, ma’am.” Helga cleared her throat, “But it must be a natural birth. Even IVF or any other technique won’t work. The older generations got alarmed when they started putting the pieces together. They went to palmists, fortune tellers, Astrologists, and whatnot. Every one of them advised Delucas to make their sons marry some other girl and then later they could marry their beloved.” She paused for a moment, “After so many generations, the young master was the first male child who not only married the girl but also started falling for her.”
I felt Justin squeezing my hand and I squeezed it back.
“Nobody wanted you here because we all knew what would happen to you. None of us was expecting that he would fall for you. When he heard that I could not give your luggage bag to you, he was mad at me. He warned me and then tossed me out of the household.” She sighed and then tried to hide her shivering hand, “I have got sons who were never ready to support me. I did their upbringing single–handedly.” Her lips quivered for a little while.
After I was sent away, I tried fitting into my sons‘ families because I was not left with any means of earning. My savings were spent on their studies plus I also gave them loans to build their houses. That was when I went back to the young Master Deluca and apologized.
I wanted help. A job to sustain myself. He told me that he would never take me back on the job but would help me with my finances. He started paying me my salary and arranged a small place where I could live peacefully.
Now my sons love me again because now their mom has her own money. But by this time, I have also learned my lesson.”
I was aware of her teary eyes but didn’t remark. She was a woman with pride and would never like it if someone would point out her flaws.
“Ms. Helga… I…” She didn’t let me finish.
“Please call me Helga, Mrs. Deluca.” She said with a smile, and I nodded at her.
“I never wanted to know about the curse. But thank you for letting me know.” I said with a smile, “It was very helpful and explains
