Chapter 170: I am your family, Bunny!
[FLASHBACK: 14 YEARS AGO, Remsworth Mansion]
"Barnes? Have you checked the decorations of those tables set in the garden for guests? You know Madam would bite our heads off if there’s any mistake, right?"
"Yes, sir!" Enthusiastically nodding his head to respond to the head butler of the mansion, 14-year-old Barnes ran off towards the huge lavishly decorated garden where the party for Aiden’s 7th birthday was supposed to be held today.
As the Young Master and only heir of the Remsworth mansion, every year Aiden’s birthday party was supposed to be a showoff party to the VIPs of the Westport city organized by his mother, the proud President of their business empire, Lorelia Remsworth.
Most of the time, Aiden’s father, the Chairman, Alpha Gabriel would avoid attending any family occasion, especially his own son’s birthday...due to the great disappointment he had been enduring for his only son who was born as a beta by inheriting his mother’s genes, and not him.
Not only Gabriel, but most of the time Aiden also had to endure his mother’s negligence, only because Aiden wasn’t born as an Alpha. In that giant luxurious mansion, it was pretty clear to say little Aiden was devoid of both his parent’s love who had always used the excuse of being jam-packed with work and tried to stay far from home as much as they could.
But every year, his birthday was the only time he could have Lorelia along with him for an entire day, even if everything she did was only a facade before the crowd of VIPs attending the party every year.
In that same mansion, Barnes had been working since he was 13, after his grandma who was his only family and a housekeeper of the mansion suddenly passed away. As per the contract strictly stated the employees, if a housekeeper faced any accidental demise, their family member would have to take their position so that no work in the mansion would be hampered until they were kicked out from the mansion.
Thus, after losing his Granny, Barnes had no spare choice but to quit school and start working as a housekeeper in that lavish mansion, under the guidance of the head butler.
