Chapter 127: His type of woman (1)
"You are to fold it like this. It is simple and quick to allow you to move on to another task in good time. You won’t need another person to help you if you’ve followed the way I have now taught you," Mavis said as she folded a sheet for Annalise.
’How did I get here?’ Annalise wondered.
She finished cleaning Rafael’s bedroom after giving it a quick look around and found nothing important. She concluded that everything important was all in his study which he kept locked.
Though that was bad for her because it meant she had to sneak in again, she applauded someone in his position for not being foolish to leave important information lying around in a room that was not locked. Rafael shouldn’t trust all his knights and he certainly shouldn’t trust his maids. She was an example of why.
Just like her, there were others who would be sneaking around, trying to get information for their own motives. Annalise doubted she was the only one here pretending to be a maid.
"Are you listening to me?" Mavis asked, snapping her fingers to get Annalise’s attention once more. "It is a lot to remember, but it is important that you do. Since he wants you to stay by his side and you seem to like this position, you must remember everything that I am telling you. You are to become the perfect maid despite this," Mavis said, motioning to Annalise’s full body.
’What is it with the people here and their insults?’ Annalise questioned in her head.
"I have been listening and taking in your words. I was just repeating it in my head. I am sorry if it seemed like I was not paying attention," Annalise apologised.
She liked the lesson from Mavis, but it was just weird for the two of them to be alone like this.
