Chapter 1073 Joy
At this moment, Cecilia felt that Daryl was particularly boring, following her around for no reason.
Daryl, dressed in a black coat, put his hands in his pockets. His eyes met Cecilia's in the air, and then he walked towards her.
Daryl walked up to Cecilia and looked down at her.
Cecilia glared at Daryl with disgust. "What do you mean?"
"What?" Daryl pretended to be clueless.
"Are you really that idle?" Cecilia's tone was full of sarcasm.
Hesitating for a moment, Daryl naturally didn't admit it. "I was just passing by and happened to see you. I thought you didn't want to see me, so I tried to avoid you."
As he said this, Daryl felt a bit guilty and touched his chin.
Hearing this, Cecilia laughed in anger.
"Cecilia, how have you been these past few days?" Daryl looked at Cecilia, a hint of concern in his eyes.
Cecilia stopped smiling and said mockingly, "Very well. I live in a mansion, eat gourmet food, and have servants taking care of me. I'm doing great!"
Hearing this, Daryl frowned. "I know what happened last time was my fault. I hope you won't be angry."
"How dare I be angry? You're my boss. Everything I do is what I should be doing," Cecilia said sadly.
"Cecilia," Seeing the pain in Cecilia's eyes, Daryl called out to her.
But Cecilia interrupted him, "Mr. Fields, if you have any instructions, just let me know. I will do my best to meet your needs!"
Cecilia's glare made Daryl very uncomfortable.
He took a step back, feeling that Cecilia was extremely repulsed by him.
"Sorry, I have something to do. I have to go." With that, Daryl turned and left helplessly.
Cecilia watched Daryl's departing figure, feeling that he seemed different from his usual self today, but she couldn't pinpoint exactly what was different.
The next moment, Cecilia also turned and left, walking in the opposite direction from Daryl.
That evening, Cecilia sat on the couch, bored, watching TV.
Although she was watching TV, she wasn't really paying attention to anything.
At this moment, Freya placed a bowl of beef stew on the coffee table and smiled. "Ms. Thorne, this is beef stew. It's very good for replenishing blood. Please try it."
"Replenishing blood?" Hearing this, Cecilia frowned. She was healthy and didn't need anything to replenish her blood.
But Freya smiled ambiguously. "Mr. Fields sent over some top-quality beef. I know beef stew is the best for replenishing blood. You lost quite a bit of blood last time, so it's good to replenish it."
Hearing this and seeing the smile on Freya's face, Cecilia's face turned blush.
The next moment, Cecilia understood that Freya must have seen the bloodstains while washing the sheets.
Indeed, Cecilia had bled a lot that time. The entire sheet was almost covered in bloodstains, which even scared Cecilia herself. Did women really bleed that much the first time they had sex? And these past few days, she had been feeling uncomfortable, with a slight tearing sensation.
Thinking of this, Cecilia hated Daryl even more.
"It's late, Freya. You should go rest," Cecilia quickly instructed Freya.
"Okay." Freya walked away with a smile.
After Freya left, Cecilia looked down at the bowl of beef stew.
It looked pretty good. She lowered her head and smelled it; it seemed delicious.
The next moment, Cecilia started eating. After all, she had lost some blood, so it was good to replenish it.
The next morning, Cecilia was sitting in the dining room having breakfast, while the doorbell suddenly rang.
"I'll get it." Hearing the doorbell, Freya quickly moved her plump body to the foyer.
Hearing the doorbell, Cecilia felt a bit nervous. 'Could it be Daryl coming back?'
Sitting at the dining table, Cecilia lost her appetite and listened carefully to the sounds from the foyer.
"Douglas, hello!" The next moment, Freya's voice came from the foyer.
Hearing Freya's words, Cecilia relaxed.
Then, Cecilia heard a series of footsteps.
Douglas soon appeared in the dining room. Seeing Cecilia having breakfast, he greeted her, "Ms. Thorne, hello."
"Hello." Cecilia nodded.
At this moment, Douglas suddenly turned to Freya and said, "Freya, please pack Mr. Fields' clothes and personal items into a box and bring them down."
"Okay." Receiving the order, Freya quickly moved her plump body upstairs.
Hearing that Douglas wanted Freya to pack Daryl's clothes, Cecilia frowned.
'Where is he going? Back to the country? On a business trip?' As Cecilia was guessing, Douglas suddenly looked at her and said, "Mr. Fields is going on a business trip to Cobblestone City. If you need anything in the meantime, you can call me. I'll be staying in Northstar City."
Hearing this, Cecilia suddenly felt relieved.
She thought, 'That's great. He should stay there for eleven months. By the time he comes back, our contract will be over.'
"Okay, thank you." Cecilia smiled at Douglas.
Soon after, Freya came downstairs with a box.
Douglas took the box and left.
After Douglas left, Cecilia suddenly felt very happy. A business trip to Cobblestone City would take at least three to five days, maybe even a week. She could finally relax.
The next moment, Cecilia finished her last bite of breakfast, stood up, and hugged Freya with a smile. "Freya, I'm off to class."
With that, Cecilia grabbed her backpack and ran out the door.
Freya stood there, stunned, her round eyes a bit confused. 'What's up with Cecilia? Since I arrived, I have never seen her so happy.'
In the days that followed, Cecilia lived well, and shook off her previous gloom. She could even concentrate fully in class.
In her spare time, she would read "One Hundred Years of Solitude." She had intended to return the book to Barry, but she hadn't seen him. She really loved the book, so she decided to return it when she had the chance.
One afternoon after school, as soon as Cecilia walked into the villa, she smelled the scent of lilies.
Looking up, she saw a bouquet of lilies in a crystal vase on the coffee table in the living room.
