Chapter 17: The Party

Kendra didn't bother to look back at Marga. She spent all day at the library. At noon, she went back to the castle alone and didn't wait for the driver to pick her up.
When other maidservants saw Kendra coming back ahead of time, they were a little surprised. They told Kendra to put her uniform on and went to the living room.
Kendra walked downstairs to the living room and heard loud music. If Kendra never came here before, she would think she entered a club.
The classical living room turned to a dancing floor. Some women were showing off their bodies. Kendra saw Lendon sitting on a couch and holding a woman. What the hell? What was Lendon doing? Why did he bring women to the castle?
Kendra looked at the scene and didn't know what to do.
"Lendon, it's itchy!" A woman laughed with a seductive voice that almost made Kendra vomit.
Lendon looked at the woman and thought of Kendra. He could seduce any woman easily except Kendra. What was wrong with that woman? Why did she always refuse him when he approached her?
"Lendon!" The woman held Lendon's neck and fawned.
Hearing those dirty words, Kendra felt so annoyed. Did Lendon have to throw this party on the day? It was so ridiculous. He just would never care about other people's thoughts.
"Miss Miller, what are you doing?" A maidservant walked to Kendra and asked.
"What should I do? I can't bother Lendon's party, and he seemed to enjoy it," Kendra looked at the maidservant and asked awkwardly.
"Just stay here in case Mr. Martin wants something." The maidservant answered.
Kendra looked at Lendon and that woman, getting blushed. How could she stand next to them? It would be awkward to witness Lendon having an intimate moment with those women.
"Go." The maidservant ignored Kendra's unwillingness and urged her.
Kendra sighed helplessly and found a corner.
Lendon continued his game with these women.
"Lendon, eat this."
A few women surrounded Lendon and fed him with fruits.
"Lendon, I want it, too." A woman held Lendon's waist and said.
"Fine, here you are." Lendon laughed, eagerly fed the woman.
Other women that ignored by Lendon and felt unhappy. They saw Kendra standing there and called her, "Hey, give us some wine."
Kendra felt a little angry, but it was her job. She had to serve these women. Women giggled, and the man breathed heavily. Hearing these noises, Kendra felt so uncomfortable.
Suddenly, a woman screamed when Kendra accidentally knocked out the glass of wine, and it poured into that woman's dress.
Kendra turned around and saw the woman glaring at her.
"What are you doing? My dress got wet." The woman complained. Her dress was thin. When it got wet, her bra could be seen clearly.
"I am so sorry. I didn't mean to knock out the wine glass," Quickly, Kendra gave a napkin to her and apologized.
"Go away." The woman pushed Kendra away, annoyed by her clumsiness.
Lendon noticed the noise, and his eyes flew to Kendra.
"What are you doing?" Lendon asked. His voice sounded so charming.
"I am sorry." Kendra avoided his stares and apologized.
"Lendon, she ruined my dress." The woman glared at Kendra again and said, "She must do it on purpose. I think she was jealous of us,"
"No, I don't want to ruin your dress, Miss," Kendra immediately defended herself.
"Is this how you treat my guest?" Lendon questioned her coldly.
Kendra lowered her head and didn't say any words again.
Looking at Kendra's face, Lendon suddenly felt upset and roared, "Get out."
"I am sorry, Mr. Martin." Another maidservant walked to them and apologized, "I will get someone else to serve you and your guests. Kendra, let's go!"
The maidservant pulled Kendra away, but before they can leave, the woman kicked Kendra deliberately and glanced at her arrogantly. Kendra almost fell down. She turned around and saw the woman's proud face. She wanted to snap back, but she controlled her anger. Kendra could do nothing to her now as Lendon was looking at them.
"What happened?" The maidservant pulled Kendra to a corner and asked in a concerned tone.
"I poured the wine into a guest's dress accidentally," Kendra explained. She felt so angry when she said "guest."
"I will ask someone else to come here." The maidservant looked at Kendra and said, "You go now, clean the swimming pool."
Kendra nodded. After she walked out of the living room, she finally felt relieved. Lendon really turned this castle into a club. Since Alexis doesn't allow him to touch her, he brought so many women to come here? He was so disgusting! Why did so many women love him? They must be insane. On Kendra's way to the swimming pool, she felt mad and cursed Lendon in her mind. Suddenly, she felt a stomach ache. What was wrong? Did she eat expired food? Kendra rubbed her belly and thought it shouldn't be a big deal.
When Kendra got to the swimming pool, other maidservants had already been cleaning it. Kendra did her job right away. It was not easy to clean a huge swimming pool. It needed many people's cooperation. Kendra had been busy for hours.
After she finally finished her task, she felt so exhausted.
"Okay, we are done here. Let's go back." One of the maidservants said.
Kendra wiped her sweats and also wanted to leave. Maybe she bent over for too long, she got dizzy when she stood up. As Kendra wanted to take a step, a woman walked to her and crushed her shoulder.
They both fell down together immediately.
"Damn it!" The woman swore and got up first and kicked Kendra's belly.
Kendra felt worse. Her stomachache got more severe.
"I knew you. You ruined my dress earlier, and here you are bumping me again. You should apologize to me. Don't pretend you are hurt. You hit me first." The woman shouted loudly.
Kendra's colleagues turned around after hearing the woman's roar. They noticed Kendra lay on the ground.
"What happened?"
"Is she Fiona? Mr. Lendon invited her today."
"They don't seem good."
"We should tell Curtis."
Kendra covered her belly and opened her eyes. She saw a woman standing in front of her and glaring at her.
"You are still alive, huh?" Fiona kicked Kendra and said ironically, "Get up and apologize to me."
Kendra frowned and felt so painful. She clenched her fists tightly.
"Bitch! Do you hear me?" Fiona screamed. How could this maidservant be so rude? If she became Lendon's wife one day, she must let these maidservants be afraid of her. Fiona thought for a while and made up her mind. Before Kendra could get up, she kicked her belly again.
