( IN THIS ERA)
Angela opened her mouth to utter apologies but doing so will only make her a thing for mockery and meaning she surrendered herself as a submissive slave to this brat..
However, on a second thought, if anything happens to her how will her family survive?
Definitely not by depending on Kerry.
Her younger brother Jace is way too young to shoulder all the responsibilities, although she was his exact age when she took over her family responsibility but he is a big deal himself and had no clue how to take care of himself not to talk of raise kids.
She clenched her hands by her side in total regret, she had to apologize, she must!
It's no use acting smart, intelligent and right at this point. She had to put her family first before her ego.
“I apologize”.
She muttered slowly, tears clouding in her eyes.
A smirk appeared on Antonio's face.
“Now that's what I thought, a contract with me is not a child's play Freckles.., You do know, you will get paid at the end of the day, so don't play games with me and don't try to act too smart. I hate when bitches like you act like you have anything in your head, yet nothing.”.
Angela was trying so hard not to say a word back.
“Stop the car!”
Angela looked up in shock at the command. Her heart raced,she thought maybe she is getting off the hook finally.
Could it be that her miracle is about to happen?
The door opened from the outside,she was about to rush out of the car when a security pushed her back into the car.
She didn't protest but instead she quietly sat down and watched quietly.
The same security and another of the men went into the car and took the naked man.
The man started pleading in tears, his nose mucus was running down his mouth…still with his hands tied and his ass stuffed with toys.
The fear in his eyes was enough to give Angela cold first and reveal her future.
“You did a bad job, you know…no payment, no satisfaction”.
Antonio's voice came deep and slow as he took a cigar from a gold pack.
“Give me another chance please…don't cast me away looking like this,I have a wife and a new baby…if they see me like this…it will…”
Before he could finish,they threw him out of the car and then the security shut the door after.
The cars started moving again, just when Angela was recovering from the shock ,gunshots were heard at the back.
She panicked and she looked back trying to get a view of what was going on but it was impossible from where she was seated.
In fear she adjusted uncomfortably on her seat, breathing heavily, her eyes went slowly to Antonio.
He had a cigarette in his mouth now..his head tilted back on the leather chair.
This is a lot messed up than I thought.
The journey to Montero's mansion was awkwardly uncomfortable for Angela,and it's nothing she would describe as adventurous. The silence from Mr Antonio was even more intimidating than his voice.
When they arrived at the Mansion, one could easily conclude that it is the biggest in the city and possibly the whole country according to reporters.
Four different, triple_storied identical buildings, old style yet classic with an arched or columned frontage.
It reminds Angela of a gleaming white and golden sultan's palace that could only be seen in fairy tales but not in any way excites her…when she knows she was only going to be a contract slave to Antonio Montero in the name of marriage.
Their car drove past the seventh gate,and never in Angela's life has she seen a place filled with so many people.. actually servants…it made her wonder if this many people were given a job then how on earth are there still people out there jobless.
The servants attention was drawn to the arrival of Antonio,each and every one of them stopped at a pace with their heads bowed.
“In this era and time people still worship others this way!”
Angela yelled in her mind.
“You seem to be absent minded Freckles,step down,your life is about to change”.
Mr Antonio said to her with a sly grin on his face.
Angela had no idea what he meant by that change? Or the secret behind that smile on his face but one thing is for sure,it's bad news,she can't get away easily from this monster…not with a seven gates mansion that is big enough to be a town and with hundreds of servants!
How can she survive this?
One out of many jacketed male servants roaming around the compound opened the door for her with a salute.
Another did the same to Antonio.
“Welcome home young master!”
Like a timed bomb they said it at the same time no one was out of line.
Heights folded into two from their bow.
Angela could sense the fear from their shuddering shoulders. The temperature of the environment completely changes to cold.
She wondered if they were being kept in against their will or paid well enough to turn themselves into slaves.
