Chapter 56 Cry baby
The ride to Xavier’s house was a quiet one, they barely said anything to one another as the car rode to his house. Xavier kept stealing glances at the lady, it is obvious that he didn’t quiet know what is going on. Each time Ruby senses his eyes on her, she secretly loved the fact that the man was picking on her. That was. awesome, she truly admired how they all acted Iike kids in a hide and seek game, well, that was enough to make her roll her eyes in anxiety.
Throughout the journey, Ruby felt sleepy to an extent that she couldn’t keep her eyes on the road and finally, she fell asleep in the car. It was kind of cool, she loved it, but then, what more could be done about it.
The car finally pulled out in Xavier’s villa located in Bomaka. It was a government residential area, the security here was top notch, more than anything someone could expect of such areas, and that was totally cool. Looking at the beautiful lady sleeping, his first thought was to wake her up, but on a second note, he decided to carry her without making any sound.
Xavier’s villa was breathtaking, it was a big mansion, from the outside, it was a three story building, painted with blue and green on an extension of the house. The young man had spent most of her time investing for this house, and it was not their family house, this one was from his sweat, from his company, and everything he owns. Well, the cost of the house had just scraped a little fortune of worth, that wasn’t anything, he had seen and lived many things before, and that is just so amazing.
The moment he carried Ruby in his arms, the lady flicked her eyes as she bore her white eyes into his own.
“You are awake,” Xavier mouthed out.
Ruby blushed profusely hearing these words, it was welcoming, she loved the manner in which the man had carried her.This content provided by N(o)velDrama].[Org.
“Yes, I am, thank you for carrying me,” Ruby said sweetly.
She was just trying to be nice, and indeed, that is the case. There isn’t much she could say right now, and the effect from it was just one that she could not do about it.
The view in front of Ruby was one that seized her breathe, indeed, there is not much that caught her attention more than what was in front of her, it was pleasurable, and the feeling to be somewhere apart from Ethan’s wrath is still overwhelming.
All the maids in Xavier’s house were all awake and as their master walked in with a lady on house, they couldn’t help but stare at the strange lady. Ruby was bleeding, and the blood had stained her, that was awkward, but then, what more can she do about it? in case she doesn’t know yet, she is stuck with Xavier for the rest of her life.
“Open a guest room for me, please, and a medical team should be alerted at once. Two maids should follow me, this lady needs help,” Xavier commanded.
Although it was late, everybody in the house were now focused on knowing who that lady is, and what she wants for herself. It was kind of bizarre for Ruby to see a million faces surround her, it was weird, there isn’t much that she can do about it, but then, that is a secret that she can barely keep to herself, in fact, it is a disgusting one, something she can barely squeeze her mind around it.
At once, a room on the second floor was prepared for the lady, and at once, Xavie r carried her there.
‘Oh my God! I knew this man was rich, but I didn’t a guess room should be this spacious,’ she thought..
The thoughts just consumed her mind, it is something that she can not even think about but then, what more can she even do about it, she wondered faintly.
An elderly lady followed them, and closely behind her was another maid of about twenty-seven years, she looks elderly, and they were the ones to help her out.
Xavier kept Ruby on the bed, and she was filled with dirt. There is not much that could be said about her condition, and Ruby felt embarrassed.
Standing with his full length, it was suddenly time to give out his instructions. It was funny yet serious. Staring at the maids, Xavier was now focused on addressing the ladies in front of him.
“Ma’am Lu and Tracy, here is Ruby, she will be leaving with us for a while, and she is my guest. I beg you both to treat her in the same manner in which you both will treat me. She can’t walk, thus will need extreme care and delicacy while treating with her please. If you don’t mind, I would like you to help clean her up, she needs a bath, let her be comfortable, and please, provide warm clothes for her. When you are done, the doctor will check on her and clean her wounds. I know that I can count on you both, so please, do not disappoint me okay?” he asked as he glared at them.
Indeedz he was being damn serious with what he said, it was awesome saying that that, and as they nodded their head positively, he added shortly.
“Alright ladies, I will be pleased to leave Ruby in your hands,” Xavier mouthed.
Walking over to Ruby, he knelt down in front of her with glistening eyes as he mouthed out sweetly to her,
“If you do not mind, the elderly lady is Ma’am Lu, she is like a mother to me, and can take proper care of you, here is another maid, Tracy, I promise that you are in good hands. Now, they are going to clean you up before anything happens okay?” Xavier mouthed out.
Having no choice but to nod her head, Xavier decided to leave as the two wonen walked him to the door. The little moment of distraction let to the lady swiftly removing the phone from her chest along side with the powder Ethan had earlier given her. She instantly hid it beneath the bed, but then, that is it, and there isn’t much to do about it right now, apart from the part that there isn’t much to do about it.
The maids suddenly swirled around and Ruby pretended like everything was normal, at least, she didn’t want to raise any suspicion on the lady’s side, that would be abnormal for a moment, but they didn’t aeem to notice anything, so Ruby was saved.
“Miss Ruby…” Ma’am Lu started but Ruby cut in almost immediately correcting her.
“Call me, Ruby, please,” Ruby muttered out.
Ruby awknowledged the fact that she wasn’t better than a slave herself, thus, it wouldn’t be better if they act any respect to her or not. There isn’t much difference at all. She thought faintly.
As she brushed her mind aside, the ladies that stood in front of her nodded their heads positively. At once, the lady knew their spaces, and how to respect them. That was cool, and as they carried her to the bathroom, the helped her remove her bloody clothes and thus carried her to the bathroom.
It was about thirty minutes when they walked out of the bathroom, it was kind If awkward, but then, Ruby was fully dressed it was cool and she felt comfortably in doing several things.
As they walked into the room, Ruby was being assisted and as she approached l the bed, she hit her leg on the bed before she could even sit on it, and dhe cried so hard, it made her cry so bad. She felt the pain, it ignited her entire body and at once she burst out crying so hard that Xavier had to be sent for.
The pain that shot through Ruby’s body was one in a million, no one could imagine such a thing, that was bizarre because she wouldn’t stop crying for bothing in this world. she was clad in a simple gown that cut across her shin bones. Ruby’s hair was tired in a ponytail, it was relaxing but the only thing is that her leg is paining her so much. She didn’t fake her tears, and as she fell towards on the ground, the maids assisted her to even put her on the bed but it seemed to be a failed mission, a real one for that matter, that was crazy, and it was out of frustration that Tracy had to be sent out to call for Xavier.
He had finished having his bath too, and was on his way to Ruby’s room when she saw Tracy running towards him while panting through out the way. His reaction was breathtaking, she could barely understand what is going on and had to constantly glare at the lady. It was awkward, but then, what more can je do about it? he wondered faintly.
“Mr. Xavier, Ruby just accidentaly hit her leg on the bed and she is on the ground wailing ever since. Ma’am Lu and I are just confused, so she asked me to come and call for you,” Tracy blurted out.
The manner in which she sounded, Xavier knew at once that it is serious, thus, he hurried towards the room to help Ruby out. Indeed, he was shocked when he heard the lady’s wail’s from outside. That was something to consider as being serious, in fact, he panicked, the fear that filled his eyes was one in a million, something that he could barely put her mind around it, that wasn’t fair, but then, what more can he do about It, he wondered in fear.
Opening the door with full force, Xavjer was caught aback when he saw Ruby on the floor. Her heart melted immediately, that was crazy, she could barely think about it, and the fact that he had the lady sitting on the carpet wailing caused his heart to melt almost immediately.
“Oh my sweet heaven! Ruby what happened to you?” Xavier called out as she rushed towards the lady’s side.
He didn’t bother when no reply came from Ruby’s side, he did not bother at all, and instead went ahead to swirl his large hand under the lady’s thighs as he secured them as one. His other hand was on her shoulders and at once, he carried her and gently placed her on the bed.
This didn’t stop the lady from crying, hell no! and the truth is that Ruby did not fake the pain, it was a serious one that consumed her entire body. She felt like she was truly going to pass out if need is not taken, and the more she glared at Xavier, the only thing that cut across her mind is the fact that Xavier had helped carry her. It was more than what she had expected that was crazy, and what more can she do about it other than crying her life Iut
“Who sent for the doctor? where is he?” Xavier asked raising his brows at the maids present in the room.
They all startled at the sound of the young man’s voice that penetrated their eardrums.
“I already sent for him, he should be here anything from now,” Ma’am Lu said calmly.
Xavier doesn’t always want things should be slowed down from him, it might not make a lot of sense, but then, he doesn’t want Ruby to be crying here and all the time, thus, he wished that Ruby will just stop crying anyways.
“Come on, Ruby, do not cry, okay? I do not want you to cry besides this wound, you might have a headache which will just be an added pain to what you already have. Please, clean your eyes,” Xavier said calmly.
Well his words seemed to aggravate the situation because Rubybonly burst out crying the more.
