My Substitute CEO Bride romance Capítulo 856

Back at the second-floor master bedroom with an independent bathroom. Mireille was vigorously rubbing every inch of her skin with a bath sponge until her smooth and fair skin turned bright red from the friction. No matter how much she scrubs herself, she still felt dirty.

"Ah!" Mireille roared in frustration and flung the bath sponge to the ground. She fell to the ground, hugging her knees as she wept with pain.

After spending an hour in the bathroom, she dragged her sore legs to the bedside, put on her clothes, and then left the room to go downstairs. There were only two maids in the house, both around 40 years old and with impeccable faces resembling numb robots.

Mireille accidentally stepped on the mop and tilted backward. She let out a cry as one of the maids quickly stepped forward and bent down to catch her before she fell to the ground.

"Miss Tanner, I… I'm sorry, I was negligent!" the maid said as she helped her up, apologizing nervously.

"Don't blame yourself. I was careless and stepped on the mop.” Mireille smiled gently.

"Please, don't tell the boss!" the man pleaded, her voice trembling. She seemed afraid that her boss would find out about this.

"I won't say anything!" Mireille smiled slightly in return.

Her fall had been planned to test the two and indeed, they were martial artists. The Duerson family's influence was so vast that even the hired maids were martial artists.

"I’ll get back to work then." The maid picked up the mop from the floor and resumed her duties.

Mireille sat down on the sofa and asked, “Where did Duncan and the others go?" T

"We dare not inquire about the boss's whereabouts,” the maid replied.

"Did he instruct you on anything?" Mireille asked again.

"The boss told us to take good care of you and mentioned that you are free to come and go from this place."
