Chapter 3: A bad mother and an awful wife
"I'm alive! I'm -- "
"Madam!"
Heaven jumped and her spread arms instantly folded to her chest. She turned her head at the door, where she heard someone calling her name in a panicked voice.
At the doorway stood a middle-aged woman, wearing a maid's uniform with an aghast expression on her face. She was looking at Hera like she had seen a ghost.
"Young Madam! What have you done? Why are all these pills scattered on the floor?!" she yelled. The maid looked at the pills on the floor with a horrified expression on her face. Her hand went to her chest and looked at the young madam.
Her name was Miriam.
Miriam hurriedly picked up the pills from the floor. Heaven rubbed her chin and kept her gaze on Miriam as she rummaged through the memories the real Heaven left for her.
Miriam was a maid serving the Zhu Family for decades. She had dedicated her life to the young master Dominic Zhu, Heaven's husband. Even now that Dominic had grown into a fine man and had a family of his own, she still served him. But now, as Heaven and Dominic's son's nanny.
According to Heaven's memories, Miriam was the only person who truly cared for her in this household. Not that Heaven was able to open up her heart to Miriam, but unlike everybody else, Heaven tolerated this nanny.
