(Grimm’s P.0.V.]

Ive been following my boss for quite some time now. It’s safe to say that I know a little about him.

He’s a workaholic. All he thinks about is work. When the company was just starting out, he did everything by himself. He would only rest when he was sleeping. However, this hard work made the company get on the right track. He still stayed at the company through thick and thin. He had no interest in
indulging in pleasure.

He worked hard, but he was not a person who valued money very much.
In terms of employee benefits, the company’s benefits were the best in the city. It was even better than the government’s food allowance. There were employees who performed particularly well alongside the benefits that came with it. The bonus the boss gave sometimes was enough to buy a building.
As long as it was beneficial to the development of the company, he would settle down to do it. He never cared about anything other than work.

That was why I was shocked when the boss diverted his attention to go and this lady.

Perhaps this lady was special to the boss. In that case, when the lady requested to see the boss, I did not say no.

“May I know your name, Miss?”

“My name is Martina.”

“Alright, Miss Martina. I’ll definitely pass on your wish to the boss. Please recuperate well for now. Everything will be discussed after you recover.”

“Alright. I look forward to meeting the kind sir. I wish to thank him in person.”

After receiving Miss Martina’s guarantee, I immediately went back to the company to look for the boss and tell him the good news.

Unexpectedly, after the boss heard about her request, his eyes were still glued to the document in his hand. He did not even raise his head.

“Saving her was a piece of cake. She doesn’t need to take it to heart. In the future, you can do whatever you want with her. There’s no need to go through me for that. Have the shops in Empress Alley improved?”

The boss quickly changed the topic to work again. I could only follow the boss’s train of thought. It was destined to be difficult to make a workaholic give up work.

[Lisa’s P.O.V.]

1am the maid of the Marcus family. My main job is to help the kitchen and deliver the food to the designated location with the dining cart. Recently, I have had a special task to deliver food to Miss Martina.

Although Miss Martina was the master’s daughter, everyone in the Marcus family knew that the master had her with another woman. The Madam disliked her very much and allowed the servants to bully her.

Therefore, I was very nervous about delivering food to her. The Madam had never allowed the dining cart into Martina’s room before. Her sudden change in attitude was probably not a good sign.

My hunch was very accurate. After I knocked on the door and entered the house, there was no sign of Martina in her living room. I was afraid that Madam would blame me if she ran away, so I hurriedly went to the bedroom to look for her. However, when I looked, | felt a sudden sharp pain in the back of
my head, and then I lost consciousness.

I never expected that when I woke up, Madam would look at me with a livid expression. There were more than ten bodyguards standing beside me.
Iwas so scared that I did not know how to speak. I supported my aching head and got up. I stuttered, “Ma… Madam… Why are you here?”

Madam laughed out of anger. “I wanted to ask you the same question. I asked you to bring food to that little sl*t. Where’s the little s!*t? Why are you lying on her bed?”

I looked around in panic. I lowered my head and said in shock, “These aren’t my clothes! What happened?”

I recalled what had happened before and explained to Madam in fear, “Madam, it’s not my fault. It was Martina who knocked me out and took my clothes. Please spare me, Madam.”

Madam clenched her fists. She did not speak for a long time. With that look in her eyes, I felt that Madam would have her bodyguards beat me to death in the next second.

Finally, Madam opened her mouth and gave a serious order, “Go check all the maids in the house and see if the little sl*t is mixed in with them. Dig three feet deep and find that sI*t no matter what!”

“Yes!”

More than ten bodyguards received the order and went out to do their job. There were only two bodyguards left in the house. Only two bodyguards were left by Madam’s side. Even if there was only one left, as long as Madam gave the order, I would be in big trouble.

The bodyguards moved very quickly. In less than twenty minutes, they returned. The leader of the men reported respectfully, “All the maids have been checked. There is no Miss Martina. We have searched all the possible hiding places inside and outside, but we have not found any traces of her.”
Madam’s face was etched with anger. I tried my best to lower my head and lower my presence. I secretly prayed that Madam would not notice me.

However, my prayers were useless. Although Madam did not look me in the eye, the corner of her eyes was all on me. Her voice carried with a whisper, but it gave me goosebumps. “When did the little sl*t leave? Do you know?”

Of course, I did not know, but to be honest, Madam would probably kill me if I gave such an answer. Thus, I could only tell her everything I knew. “I gave… gave Miss… gave the little sl*t food at nine in the morning, and then I was knocked out. She… she probably left at that time.”

“You piece of trash! You can’t even control a woman?!” Madam was scolding everyone, but she raised her hand and threw the teacup on the table toward my face, splashing water all over me.

She lost control and roared, “Get out and look for her.. If you don’t bring the little sl*t back, don’t come back at all!”
