Chapter 10 (part 3)
In Anna's room, Anna sent a servant to go call Mike.
Anna:come in...explain to me this story about the worker that you punished and Jude found
Back in the living room.
Jamie:Chris told me everything and he wasn't mad or anything in fact he was fine and he enjoyed it
Sadie:enjoyed it?
Jamie:he was very mad with Mike but with Jude he was fine and he told me that she has a strong character and a great courage to do what she did
Back with Anna in her room.
Mike:that's why I wanted to talk to you this morning, to tell you everything and to tell you that Mr Chris was very mad and he even doesn't want me to be the supervisor anymore
Anna:he sent you away?
Mike:no, I'm still on top of the workers
Anna:it's your fault I told you to be careful with your punishments
Mike:but I locked him in a secure place...I didn't knew that Miss Jude could cause all that trouble
Anna:anyway it was your fault
Mike:so you're not going to help me?
Anna:what can I do?...go against my son's order?...and you made a mistake and now you have to pay for it
Mike:I always worked well, hard and I never betrayed you
Anna:yes, I know and I thank you but I can't go against my son's order it will make him seem weak
Mike:but in all these years I always was faithful to you...I never said a word, nothing
Anna:what are you talking about?...tell me
Mike:do you remember when Mr Dutois died?
Anna:yes, and?
Mike:he was taking a letter to the lawyer Mills, I found it and I gave it to you because if it went in the lawyer's hand how it was suppose to be...here in the mansion things will be different and Mr Chris will not be the only one to command
Anna:what are you saying?...have you lost your mind?
Mike:no, Mrs Anna and you know it because in that letter Mr Stuart has written that he wanted to leave part of the land to his other son
Anna:I never thought you could have read that letter
Mike:yes, but I never said anything and luckily that boy left and now he's a man and lives at the beach and everyone calls him Tommy Quincy
Anna:have you seen him?
Mike:no, but I heard people talk about him, they say that he's cruel and he's the devil
Anna:ok, I will talk to my son
Mike:thank you...I leave you now
Anna's thoughts 'oh, my god the past is returning. Now I have to be even treated
because of that bastard that my husband brought on earth. I have to destroy that
letter so there will be no evidence...where have I put the key?...oh, here it is'.
Anna tried to open the drawer where the letter was but she was disturbed by her
servant.
Luana:sorry, Mrs Can I help you with something?
Anna:it's just that the key can't fit properly in the hole...maybe it's because it's old
Luana:do you want me to force it with a knife?
Anna:no...No it's not important
In Jude's and Sadie's room.
Jude:you're right I exaggerated but if you saw in what condition that old man was...
Sadie:whatever it was this is not your house and it will never be...the future wife of Chris am I not you
Jude:oh, now I understand why you were so mad
Sadie:yes, of course and I am the only one that can give orders to the servants here
Jude:I acted like that only because I wanted to help
Sadie:oh, come on...you only tried to get Chris's attention to let him see how generous and helpful you are...you want to take him away from me
Jude:I don't want to argue for things without sense...I see you later
Sadie:Jude...Jude
But Jude left and didn't turned back so Sadie went after her.
Sadie:Jude I'm talking to you...Jude
It was for nothing because Jude left and went outside. Jamie that was in the office
came out to see what was with all the shouting. And there he saw Sadie.
Jamie:What is going on?
Sadie:nothing, that stupid keeps putting her nose in things that doesn't occur her
Jamie:oh, are you still going on with what happened?
Sadie: yes,
Jamie:don't you think you're exaggerating things?...it wasn't something important neither Mrs Anna or Chris took it that bad not only but Chris even found it funny Jude's reaction
Sadie:and that's why I'm angry...don't you see that she's doing everything to have his attention?
Jamie:(laughing) Jealous?...oh, please don't be like this calm down, let's go in the office...you know Chris is crazy about you...I swear it...you have to believe me
Outside the mansion Jude went to the stables and was admiring a horse when
Chris saw her and went to talk to her.
Jude:you're beautiful (to the horse)
Chris:you like horses?
Jude:yes, I like all kind of animals
Chris:even the dangerous once?
Jude:I'm afraid of them but even they are creatures of god and if he created them there was a reason why...where you going somewhere?
Chris:no, I was going inside the mansion
Jude:can we talk?
Chris:at your service
Jude:look about what happened with your worker it looks like it became as a problem and I'm sorry that I interfered with the things of your mansion
Chris:you don't have to be sorry instead I have to thank you because if it wasn't for you maybe I would have never found out what Mike was doing to the workers...why did you said that this became a problem?...have someone told you something?... my mother?
Jude:no, but maybe my reaction was exaggerated
Chris:no, Jude it wasn't and I understand why you did it
Jude:but this is your property and I had no right to do it
Chris:here you can do and say whatever you want and not because you're Sadie's sister but because I...I care...I care a lot about you and I respect you
Jude:me too
Chris:friends again then?
Jude:yes, friends
Back with Sadie and Jamie in the office.
Jamie:no Sadie you liked Chris from the first time you saw him
Sadie:mine was just a manner to be gentle and friendly
Jamie:yes, but your manners of gentleness was directed to the hearth
Sadie:now you're exaggerating
Jamie:you are a special woman Sadie and very dangerous
Sadie:dangerous me?...but I never even broke a plate
Jamie:no, one plate no but the entire set yes
They were laughing when Jude and Chris came in laughing too.
Chris:here they are
Sadie:and you where have you been?
Chris:at the stables, Jude was admiring one of my horses
Sadie:ah, I see
Jude:I leave see you later
Jamie:so the eleventh commandment say don't be in between a couple so I leave too
Now Sadie and Chris were alone.
Chris:you're more beautiful today
He went to kiss her but she turned her face.
Sadie:I'm mad
Chris:with me, why?
Sadie:with my sister, I feel so embarrassed...I don't know why you leave her does whatever she wants and give her whatever she wants. What does matter to her that a worker was punished?
Chris:it was nothing
Sadie:to you it seemed nothing...to treat someone with a knife it's not anything
Chris:she took the knife just to release the old man and I'm grateful to her because now I know what was going on behind my back
Sadie:but she has no right to do it
Chris:it's a solved thing now
Sadie:no, it isn't solved because I think you care more about her than me
Chris:no, what are you saying?...you can't see how much I care about you...you are my life and nothing is going to get in between us right?
Sadie:right
Teasers:
Victoria:so you didn't regret to come here?
Jude:because that is the decision I made
Jude:when have you met Mr Mills?
Chris:because it was a person I knew from before and that I have good memories with him
Mike:everyone has his skeleton in the closet and I tell you that they have one
Jude:have you talked about this to Chris?
Sadie:liar...you didn't say anything because you know that Chris wouldn't believe you...he would have thought that you said it to hurt him back and because you're jealous...but it's a waste of time that you are always around him trying to act as an angel...you don't have any chance sweetie...you can't never compete with me...no one can fall for you after they knew me Jude
