Capítulo 72: Sitting Together

Fae was relieved to see that Ren had actually fallen asleep. She had no idea that the man was right when he said Fee's voice could make him sleep well.

Slowly a smile began to decorate the girl's face. Fae then sat on the sofa and watched Ren for a few minutes before turning on the mood light. Finally, she turned off all the other lights and closed the bedroom door behind her.

Fae carefully and silently took out her trolley and cleaning robot from the villa and returned to the housekeeping quarter.

Ms. Kohler looked up when she heard Fae coming. She immediately waved her hand and asked Fae to come closer to her. The woman's face looked worried.

"Fae... you better go home now, okay. I'll say that you are feeling unwell and need to rest at home. Don't come here before I call you ..." said the woman.

Fae frowned in confusion. However, as a lowly employee, she could not argue. Obediently she then nodded. "Thank you, Ma'am."

Fae then changed into her own clothes and rushed to get her bicycle to go home. She could only guess that this was related to Ren's threat to the Keller Hotel headquarters to revoke all their hotel operating licenses in Moravia.

Ugh ... I hope everything will be all right, Fae thought anxiously.

On the way home, she still saw some lavender in the meadow, and her thoughts drifted to the handsome young man who was sleeping soundly in his villa.

Without hesitation, Fae picked a basket full of lavender again and brought them home. Tomorrow, when she was allowed to come back to the resort, she would replace the flowers in Ren's room with the new ones.

As it turned out, Fae didn't have to wait too long. At 7 PM, Ms. Kohler already called her and shared the good news.

"Fae, from tomorrow, you can become Prince Renald's personal maid... Oof, I mean, Mr. Friedrich's personal maid." Ms. Kohler sounded cheerful on the other end. "You will start working at 9 am after the villa is cleaned by the housekeeper. You must wear a nice dress, okay. Mr. Friedrich said he didn't like our uniforms. His previous personal maids never wore our resort uniforms."

"Th ... thank you, Ma'am," said Fae in a relieved voice. "Uhm ... is Miss Franka going back to Switzerland?"

Ms, Kohler let out a long sigh. "Unfortunately not. Miss Franka came to Mr. Friedrich herself and talked to him. I heard that she apologized, or she did something big to get Mr. Friedrich to cancel his threat. What is clear, the prince no longer demanded that Miss Franka be sent back to Switzerland."

"Oh ..." Fae didn't know how to respond.

On the one hand, she was happy that Ren had managed to get her to work as his personal maid. But, on the other hand, she was worried that Franka would retaliate to her once Ren was gone.

Fae had just found out this morning how much the director hated her that she purposely transferred Fae to become a housekeeper.

"Don't worry," said Ms. Kohler, trying to calm her down. "Miss Franka won't dare to bother you while Mr. Friedrich is at the resort."

Fae was in a daze. She knew that with his power, Ren would be able to protect her from anyone .. However, he would only be at the resort for a few days or weeks. After he left, it was certain that Franka would come after Fae again.

Ugh.. the girl knew she really had to start looking for a new job and leave the Rhine Resort. Hmm ... if she didn't want to move from this village, that means she would have to find a job at a cafe or restaurant in the town center. She may no longer work at the resort.

Fae was still preoccupied with her own thoughts when she hung up the phone.

***

The next day, Fae wore her prettiest dress, covered with a light brown autumn coat, which made her look very feminine. She still remembered Ms. Kohler told her to wear nice clothes when she worked as Ren's personal maid at the resort. This was one of her only three decent dresses. She would have to wear it again in a few days.

Last night, Ms. Kohler also briefed her on what to do in her new job. For Fae, the tasks of a personal maid were quite easy.

She just needed to make sure all the guest's needs were met. The point was to make sure Ren enjoyed his stay at the resort without lacking anything. Fae would ensure the villa was cleaned on time; breakfast, lunch, and dinner were perfectly provided; and was always ready should Ren need her help.

"Good morning," Fae knocked on the villa door at exactly 9 am. She knew now that Ren was very punctual and didn't like people who arrived early or late. Fae actually waited a few minutes in the garden below the villa before she knocked because she arrived at 8.50 am.

"Please come in." There was a distinctive voice from inside as the doorknob turned, and the door was opened from the inside. Ren ushered Fae in and closed the door behind her. "I just woke up. Please make me coffee while I shower."

"Very well, Sir ..." said Fae politely.

She was very happy to hear Ren's words just now. This means that last night Ren managed to sleep well, again. Hopefully, this man will soon recover from his terrible insomnia and stop scolding people, Fae thought hopefully.

She could imagine that Ren's curt and cold attitude was caused by his bad mood due to lack of sleep. This made the prince's reputation on the outside suffer. When in actuality, according to Fee, Ren was a nice and pleasant man.

She looked at Ren's back, who was walking back to his bedroom. The man was wearing a black silk night robe, and oh... he looked really cool from behind.

Fae wanted to stare at the man's back for a long time, but she knew her place and hurried to the kitchen to prepare a cup of coffee.

Hmm .. she didn't have time to ask what kind of coffee this VVIP guest liked. Did he like his coffee black? With milk? Did he want Cappuccino or espresso? Fae was confused.

Finally, she decided to make several cups of coffee and put them on the tray. Later, when Ren had finished taking a shower, Fae would have any coffee he would ever want.

Ten minutes later, Ren came out of the room with his hair looking slightly damp. The man was already wearing his usual formal outfit, a dark blue long-sleeved shirt, a vest and black trousers with a formal cut.

Fae guessed that Ren really liked formal attire because it made him look older. Inwardly, she tried to imagine what Ren would look like in casual clothes. Ah, he must look very handsome. However, people might mistake him for a teenager.

"Sir, what kind of coffee would you like to have? Espresso, cappuccino, or something else?" Fae asked politely as soon as she saw Ren in the living room.

"Espresso," replied Ren shortly.

He took several books in his hands and sat on the large sofa in the middle of the living room, overlooking the pretty terrace. It was decorated with lots of greenery and flowers. He then opened a book and began to read intently.

Fae arrived with a cup of espresso and served it on the small table next to Ren's chair. "Here is your coffee, Sir."

"Thank you," said Ren without looking up from the book he was reading. "Sit down and make yourself comfortable. When I need your help, I'll ask for it."

"Oh ... all right," replied Fee.

The girl became confused. She didn't know she would be asked to sit in the living room accompanying Ren to read.

Was there nothing she could do? It felt weird just sitting together like this.
