Turning Of The Tide

Chapter 7

A three–story white exotic–style villa with full glass windows caught Natalie’s eye. Right away, one could see the spacious and bright living room within.

There was a circular extended balcony on the second floor, which seemed to be connected to the master bedroom. On the third floor was another circular balcony large enough to contain several people for a barbeque.

Looking around, Natalie found that the other houses in the area were built similarly. It seemed to be the standard in this community.

As Natalie and Jim passed through the door, Nell, who was working busily in the kitchen, came out slowly and greeted flatly while eyeing Natalie up and down. “Mrs. Wilson.”

She had disdain for Natalie in her heart. “As expected, she was as what Mrs. Rachel Wilson said. She had nothing to bring to the table. Her outfit is cheap,” she thought.

Nell was Theo Wilson’s servant at Wilson’s old residence. Worrying that Trevon wouldn’t take good care of Natalie, Theo chose a servant to take care of them. However, Trevon Wilson’s mother, Rachel Wilson, successfully bribed Nell before the

latter came over.

The servants in the wealthy aristocratic households learned to be crafty. Someone like Nell, who had been with the Wilson family for decades, was used to judging people based on their mannerisms and as a result, providing differential treatment.

From the day they got the marriage license, Rachel Wilson was unhappy about the marriage. However, there was nothing she could do since it was arranged by Theo Wilson, the head and decision–maker of the Wilson family.

Nell also heard that Trevon didn’t like Natalie, so she became even more reckless.

Jim Hawk said respectfully, “Mrs. Wilson, this is Nell. She will take care of you in the future. I have some business to attend to at the company so I will leave first. If you need anything, you can call me.”

“Okay, thank you for your help today, Mr. Hawk,” said Natalie politely. She believed in reciprocating respect, giving three times what she received. Respect was mutual,

Just as Jim Hawk left, Nell began to act up. “Mrs. Wilson, I have something to attend to at home today and need to take leave. As for your lunch and dinner, please take care of it yourself,” her tone carried a hint of sarcasm. She was not asking for permission to take leave but notifying her of her decision.

Rachel Wilson told her that Trevon didn’t like his new wife, who came out of the blue, and they would divorce in a few months. She does not have to take good care of Natalie and just has to put up a pretense in front of Theo Wilson. Trevon would not be sharing a room with her either.

After the pep talk from Rachel, Nell firmly believed that Natalie would not be Mrs. Wilson of the Wilson family for long, and she had nothing to worry about.
