The Billionaire’s Virtuous Slave - Chapter 4

Chapter Four

Another day here at Wrum’s mansion. I lost my mind running away from it. For escaping is impossible here is hard to do. With the tightness of their security here, I know I can no longer escape.

“Eat Silic. The beast wants you to eat today with special foods. I cooked it for you,” Wim said, as he is referring to Wrum.

I just managed to sit here in the chair of the dining table. He turned to me and laid down what he had cooked. He also cooked a lot and I guess it wasn’t just for Wrum. He is not even here for he is doing some of his business. I did not know that he was leaving and I had no intention of knowing that.

I just realized that expensive food is in front of me. I only eat this once, but here, it seems like just normal food. Just wow.

“Hey Silic, eat. I don’t want Wrum to scold me again. All right, maybe what is he going to do to you here.” he said as if he was scaring me. “But you don’t have to worry about it. He won’t kill you. He needs you.”

Does he need me? Damn hell.

“I’m not hungry. You just have to eat first.” I just told him. “All I want right now is to get out of here. That’s all I want Wim. ”

Wim took off his apron. He put it in its place and then faced me again. He just shook his head and not a word came out of his mouth.

“Please help me escape from here. Please?” I almost begged him but he just avoided looking at me.

He took two grapes from the fruit containers in the middle of the table.

He ate one while the other was still in his hand.

“Maybe you’re the only one who can help me with this. You look kind.” I said.

“Just a face, but not kind.” he smiled at me. He doesn’t seem to be taking what I say seriously. My face is already begging. Do I look like a joker?

He looked at me and shook again. “You’re wrong Silic. I can’t help you with what you want to happen. I don’t want to break the trust Wrum gave me. Among all his staff, I am the one he trusts and I do not want to break it because of you.” he took the apple from the table and bit it.

“Help me please,” I said.

“No. I can’t, sorry” he replied.

“I am begging you.”

“It is still a no for me,” he said. “You should be thankful for Wrum still let you live despite what your father has done to their family. You know, Wrum is not that brutal compared to his father and if I had to choose, I would have chosen Wrum even more. ”

“I don’t care about the two of them. I know since I first came here, I just want to get out,” I said. “And one more thing, I shouldn’t thank him.”

Should I be grateful? What he did to me was completely wrong. I must be sad and angry with him for what he did.

“Can you lend me a cellphone? I’ll just call my family and my friend that I’m here in a mansion and I can’t go home there first.” I told him. “Please? At least that’s all you can do for me.”

He just looked at me and scratched his head. “Fine. Do it just for a couple of minutes and return it to me after,” he said.

Finally, he felt sorry for me too. “Thank you.” my sparing answer.

He took his cellphone out of his pocket. He swipes his phone and looks like he typed his cellphone’s password. After he did what he did he gave it to me. I was about to pick it up when I heard someone speaking from behind me.

“You can’t use any cellphone.” a familiar voice I heard behind me. None other than Wrum. Killjoy. This would have been the only time to talk to my family. “Did I tell you that?”

Wim hid his cellphone. “Let me explain Wrum—”

“I do not want to hear your stupid explanation Wim,” Wrum said with authority. “Get lost.” Wim just nodded and immediately left the kitchen. I don’t want him to leave yet. He is the only sensible person I can talk to here. Hell.

“Eat. Did Wim told you that I don’t want you to be hungry?” he sat down next to me. He brought the plate with only food to me. “You need to eat slave.”

I stood up and just stared at him. “I have no appetite.” my sparing answer.

“Eat!” he shouted at me. I almost broke my eardrum because of his bullying. He just really asked. It’s okay for me to be angry with Mama, but I will not let anyone else get angry with me without me knowing. Just like him.

“How can I have an appetite if I am here in your mansion? I have no intention of eating from here and can you not call me a slave? I have a name and even more, you are not a slave do you understand me? “I asked him angrily.

He sighed. “No matter what you tell me, I don’t care,” he said.

Without any words, I slapped him in the face. He grabbed her face. He eyed me angrily just like he wants to eat me alive with his look.

“You slapped me ?!” he couldn’t believe he asked me. “Do you want me to kill you now ?!” he shouted again.

I was easily shaken. “Hell no. Please no.”

He slowly brought his face closer to mine. I was even more nervous. Does he intend to kiss me? Damn him.

“Don’t dare to do it again if you do not want me to skin you alive.” he threatened me. He could not continue what he wanted to say to me when we saw Wim come again.

“Wrum, Mr. Romeo just called me and said that he needs to talk to you. Some business probably,” said Wim. “Business before woman, that’s them,” he said again.

“Stupid. Don’t teach me what I should do.” with a streak of anger Wrum said to Wim.

“That’s what I said Wrum.” Wim just said.

I breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, Wim arrived.

“We’re not done yet.” I heard Wrum say to me and I saw it walk towards Wim. He even took Wim’s cellphone as if he had lost confidence in it.
