82 Chapter 82: The New Housemaid

“Maria? How come?”

Emy was sitting on the hospital bed, and Jasmin was sitting next to her. Devin and Reed were on opposite sides of the bed. They tell Emy what happened, and she can’t believe that Maria did that to her. And he found out that Jasmin already knew what Devin and Reed were hiding.

“You didn’t understand why?” Devin asked.

“For what? He’ll just lie. It’s better for me to find out why he betrayed me than to keep trusting her. Also, I know he’s not the only traitor in the realm. There are many more, and I’ll find out who they are when I see them. I am going to kill them.”

Emy swallowed, and so did Jasmin. Reed’s face turned serious, and his aura got darker. At that moment, both of them had goosebumps all over their bodies.

“Reed, stop it. You’re scaring them.” Devin said.

Reed looked at Emy and Jasmin and he calmed down. He inhaled deeply.

“If you’re feeling OK now, Wifey, let’s go home...” Reed said.

“Sir, he can’t go home yet. The doctor has said nothing yet. I should probably just ask the nurse.” Jasmin said something, then got up and left the room.

.....

Emy, Reed, and Devin were left alone in the room. Reed walked up to Emy and put his hand on hers. When Devin saw that, he turned away and moved toward the couch.

“I am wondering what happened to Eve,” Devin said while sitting on the couch. Reed and Emy both looked at him. “Since our last conversation when she got back, we haven’t seen each other again.”

“Do you think Eve has something to hide?” Reed asked. “You probably know him better than I do. And as far as I can remember, he doesn’t avoid us, but now she seems to hide.”

“Are you saying that Eve handled the deaths of the woman in the hotel and the woman in the hospital? Wasn’t it Maria who killed that woman in the hospital?”

Reed had a flashback when he asked Eve about the person who insulted Emy that night and even used Devin.

“I think Eve knows something, but she won’t tell me what it is because she doesn’t want to.” Reed said.

Devin said nothing because he knew Eve was afraid of Reed and didn’t want to upset him. And the way Reed talked to Eve was not good at all.

When the door opened again, they went back the way they came. Jasmin and the doctor walked in.

When the doctor said Emy could go out, they went straight home while Devin took Jasmin to her house. They found Eddie, who appeared to be looking for someone.

“Daddy, are you looking for something?” E my said.

“Hmmm, have you seen Maria?” Eddie asked.

Reed and Emy were looking at each other. “Tay, she’s gone...” Reed said.

“Gone? Did she leave already? Why didn’t she at least say goodbye?”

“Tata, why do you want to find her?”

“Oh, my medicine. She kept it. I’ve used it all up, so...”

“Why is he hiding your medication, Tatay?” Emy spoke up. “Why didn’t you give it to me? Let’s hurry and give you your new medicine, and don’t even bother looking for the medicine.”

“But it’s a waste of that medicine since there’s more of it,” Eddie said.

“We honestly don’t know where she put it. Let’s just get a new one, Dad...” said Emy.

Eddie saw Emy was holding his stomach with one of her hands.

“Is something bothering you? Why are you holding it in your stomach?”

“Oh, it’s nothing, Tay.” Emy took her hand off his stomach, which she had been holding.

Eddie took a deep breath. “Since Maria is gone, it looks like I’ll be in charge of the house,” he said. “I’m going to make a delicious lunch today...”

Eddie turned his back on them and headed to the kitchen. Reed looked at Emy when he noticed she was going to follow the old man.

“Where’re you going? Get some rest.” Reed said.

“Tay can’t do housework because he’s going to get tired...”

“But you’re not still okay. I’ll look after it.” Reed said.

“You’re going to cook and clean?” Emy was shocked.

Reed laughed and pinched Emy’s nose. “Silly! I’ll find someone to replace Maria.”

“Ah okay. I thought you were going to clean up.”

“I’m just going to leave for a little. When I come back, Maria’s replacement will be with me.”

“Ok, be careful,” Amy said.

Reed kissed Emy on the lips just before she disappeared in front of him.

“Who are Maria and Alexander?

The former king was shocked by what he learned. He knew Reed trusted Maria more than anyone else, and now Maria had betrayed him.

“I’m sure there are a lot more like them. I want to know who started it and who tried to rape my queen, father.”

“What?” Eldron was surprised.

“I’m sure that demon is an incubus because, besides the queen, it has killed many people in the next world.”

“Have you talked about that with Princess Eve?”

“He doesn’t want to say who he knows, but I know he does.”

“You can’t talk to Eve’s parents because it will only end badly.”

“I know. They are the demons who will think you are accusing them if you ask them. Demons like them don’t think outside the box enough. I don’t understand why they went to the Elite when they have such low-level ideas.”

“You know that because of their blood.”

Reed inhaled deeply. “Well, I need a servant for the queen that I can take to the other side.”

“When would you need a server?”

“Now, when I go out, I’ll take her with me.”

“Right now?” asked the shocked king.

“I’m about to leave, but I’ll be back in a minute.” Reed left the room quickly, and his father didn’t say or do anything.

Reed left the palace and went to the place where the soldiers lived. They were surprised, so they stood up and left the barracks right away as he told them to. He LOOKED for his locker of Alexander. Reed couldn’t open it because it was locked, so he used force. He hit it hard while black smoke was coming out of it, so the inside of the locker was ruined. Reed looked for someone who could teach Alexander and Maria’s friends as soon as it opened.

When he looked at Alexander’s locker and found nothing, he went straight to Maria’s locker in the other room. He broke it up as he did with Alexander’s locker, but he still found nothing.

“Damn it!” Reed said he was upset.

He was angry when he left the barracks. When he got back to the palace, his dad was there with both men and women. Reed cocked his eyebrow and looked around at everyone.

“They’re the best, so just buy them. How many do you need?”

“I’d like three. One boy and two girls.”

“Good. You can pick from among them...”

“I don’t just want to know how to clean the house or do housework. I must also be able to keep the queen’s family safe.”

“Oh...” Eldron said. “You can find out.”

Reed ran quickly to those who were there. He didn’t use any magic and only fought with his body. Those who were there could stay out of his way. Reed thought they were good, which made him stop attacking.

“Good, you are all good.” said Reed. “But for me, being good isn’t enough. I need someone I can trust and who won’t go back on their word. The last person who lied to me? I kill both of them.”

Eldron said, “So you won’t be afraid. Why don’t you make a promise you can’t break?”

“It’s unnecessary...” Reed said. Reed moved toward the people he had chosen.

When Reed came with his three companions, Emy’s father had already made food. One man and two women. Reed was outside with the three he had chosen, and he had made a mark on each of them.

Reed said, “I won’t say what that mark is about. Let me now tell you about a member of the queen’s family.”

Reed and his three friends went into the house together. Emy was in the kitchen with the rest of the people inside. They looked at the new person.

“Read, good, and come, come, come.” Ethan, get them a plate...”

Ethan got up and got everyone a plate.

“Emy, Dad, guys, they will be your new roommates.” Reed looked at the people he was with. “Tell me about yourselves.”

“I’m Becky... nice to meet you.”

“Anton, I’m Anton. “It’s good to meet you.”

“Marina, I’m Marina. I’m glad to meet you.”

.....

“You will serve Becky, Anton, and Marina. Emy’s father is Daddy Eddie, and her brothers are Mark, Markus, Ethan, and Elijah.”

“Sit down and eat,” Eddie said. “Let’s talk later...”

“We won’t eat now. First, we’ll walk all the way around the house to get to know it inside and out.”

“It’s better than that,” Reed said.

The three of them turned their backs on everyone and started wandering around the house.

“Where are you going?”

Eve saw Dynhir dressed up and looking like he was going somewhere when she went down the stairs.

He said with a smile, “I have a date.”

“You have a date?” As Eve went down the stairs, she asked with a raised eyebrow. He went up to her cousin. “When did you first start dating?”

“Well, I bought a phone once, and the salesperson showed me how to use a dating app. I now have two dates today.”

“Food or date?” Dynhir laughed when Eve said what she did. “Do nothing stupid again, all right?”

“I’ll try,” Eve said, and then she just vanished.

Eve bit her bottom lip. She didn’t know why, but she got nervous suddenly.
