"Robbie, I'd like you to meet Mr. Williams."375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCcpGMJ5LWs
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQqL1nGMMMB
I glanced up at the unfamiliar man standing in the doorway. He wore a chauffeur uniform with a matching hat and gloves. He looked to be in his late 60's and had a smile tugging at the corner of his mouth.375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMf6JASrfOW
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡClxSfZHHSi
"Absolute pleasure to meet you, Ms. Quinn." He said in the thickest English accent. "We are more than thrilled to have you join the Wolfe home."375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyyPjuvvgc0
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQLdqbhThNm
I stammered, "G-great."375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGeS9UNFoj9
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP4dIkMhlqG
Angel looked over and tossed me a black bag, "I got you some extra things as well and even took the liberty of getting what I felt was important from your apartment."375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYyVVAyLzMN
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ974UfxNLD7
"Really!" I beamed.375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe3m8f9FMgP
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFPFMwnKCbK
School books, cell phone and charger, toiletries, some of my favorite pieces of jewelry and snacks I had hidden from Josh under my bed.375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgOarFLSWs8
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA4kO7uFLbi
"I assumed the snack cakes were important." She winked and I started laughing loudly. "We did also grab some shoes and clothes we assumed you'd want and have already transported a large amount of your belongings to the estate."375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqUy4ghyOqG
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4by4mzWzed
"Wow...Thank you! That means a lot." I told her wholeheartedly.375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0nMWhShHtN
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOiWl6wBS23
I'm going to miss this strange, humorless woman. 375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd2hAXyS0rD
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8wRgGtcHe4
"Of course! We want this to be a positive time and experience." She looked over at Mr. Williams with a look I couldn't decipher. "I think she's ready for you."375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKiHyqTUmzO
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0H0hsB8ZhH
"Delightful! I'll be driving you today." He enthused and took my bags from me. "Would you like me to stop and get you something for dinner first?"375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpFJEGX3wpp
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNE4anRqxuV
"Oh...wow..uh."375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT5siePtogq
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2Hr7J2r8ui
"We'll decide in the car." He chuckled and gave Angel a parting glance before exiting.375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5crb4QjbtA
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJD2IBidhwO
"So..."Angel began and waited for him to be out of hearing distance.  "I'll be keeping tabs on you...I put my number in your phone as well."375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1v28iS6QPw
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnWx9bVuBHB
"Thank you," I replied and without thinking tossed my arms around her.  "For everything."375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡucNJbPAK84
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn7NJLIWU5u
She stiffened a bit by the sudden display of affection, but let her arms cradle me in the embrace.375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeBFA8NWXc3
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsRIRNB8y3K
"Of course, Robbie. Let's get you down there."375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxNsmogoQ8L
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkSjLLI130k
The two of us headed down towards the front of the entrance where Mr. Williams waited in front of a sleek black  Mercedes.375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiU4ko1REOk
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqbX49UqxrU
"Alright! I'll see you soon, Robbie. Take care and remember to call if you need me." Angel piped up from the side.375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpfn7X10O9P
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3EezOtvGsZ
"She'll be in great hands," Mr. Williams assured her warmly. "Ready to go Ms. Quinn?"375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUCgmtSGiUd
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv1Wj3lAflc
I nodded, swallowing the lump in my throat. "Yes, sir."375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVURUlID6IH
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn31XbPHRYe
I stepped toward the open door and glanced back giving Angel a worried look. She just smiled back at me and nodded.375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnz2DAuRt6B
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8yRvczu2Zk
"Ready?" Mr. Williams mused as he stepped into the drivers side375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzamXlNw0d8
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj07rVkCFO6
"Yes..."375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4B0cMVWy2G
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvvhmTdzi35
The car started to pull away from the curb and I pressed my face against the window. The hospital disappeared too quickly and I could already feel the tears burning my eyes.375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYS7xjYAHLm
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuI68Zsty9X
_375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCSrZpZQ0Hj
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTCWa5D5Kbf
"We're here, Ms. Quinn."375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9nGuDJQnZi
 375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOGWBpvYiXe
My eyelids fluttered as Mr. Williams spoke. The car now parked along some secluded dark pathway surrounded by massive trees.375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKhSqx692W0
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTnIHugn4ND
"Where's the house?" I asked, peering out the dark window.375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5uDHJMwV6J
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkXnfJAxkmG
"About a 5 minute drive from here, Mrs. Williams will take you the rest of the way. I'll be finishing some errands immediately for Mr. Wolfe."375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5G3AgEpDdM
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRPJACUskHA
"Is she your wife?" I wondered.375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqKECG5IQEs
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo3PuJlxdzv
"She sure is. My ball and chain."375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvpIbb3Kv9X
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa9n1eGNNkB
I smiled at his response just as a woman in a nightgown appeared on the path in front of us. A large, black jeep rolled silently behind her.375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEVx0K3dR0r
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEmSkR586vg
Her peppered hair whipped around wildly as she walked towards the two of us. She had a massive smile on her face and nearly yanked open Mr. Williams door to greet him.375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRW1sJiOSWs
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx7UOqZZIo7
"Hello, Ms. Quinn!" She cheered as she caught sight of me. "I'm Mrs. Williams, but you're welcome to call me May."375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWTFKw1IABs
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOMDYfs3qes
I grinned back at her, relieved by her kindness. "It's a pleasure to meet you!"375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0bCze7dl8G
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrekJiLuwpQ
"May, I'll be back in about twenty. Take her to the estate and get her settled?" Mr. Williams asked her and took her hands in his, kissing them gently.375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ64sG5ZTA3s
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDBnsAzKMa9
"Of course, love." She smiled down at him.375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4Dtl7DaXOP
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgVA6Z5Fkxz
The two of them embrace quickly and kiss one another with so much passion as if they wouldn't see each other again.375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC5iI3Vr41L
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzKrjgR3fF9
Watching them together really made me miss my parents. They were so in love.375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAg3vKV2cfJ
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5p1B149g5H
A day didn't pass where they weren't cuddled up on the couch or getting lost in each other's eyes. I always admired that kind of romance and hoped one day I'd have that kind of connection with someone.375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwXxCIiXV33
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJLw4ampDP4
"Alright! Ready to finish this trip up?"May asked, pulling me from my thoughts.375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIqmuVyb3Cf
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZMoVnqGXKD
"Yes ma'am!" I replied and watched as Mr. Williams climbed into the jeep parked across from us.375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJMgNk7PElT
 375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB0tqWFftUz
The drive up the path took only a few minutes before we came face to face with a massive gold gate blocking the entrance to another path that seemed to smooth out.375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkCEdGLGBEr
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwt73ybAtK2
I watched silently as May leaned her body out of the driver window and typed in a password. The gates before us groaned open and pulled back allowing us to enter.375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZOAMECLrBk
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKl72FgybEP
"Just wait til you see this house." May mused from the front seat. "Have you ever seen a 3.8 million dollar mansion?"375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXKNztucArT
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgaD8YtlpJP
My jaw fell open, "3.8 million dollars?"375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhdXyHsTBXA
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU6ygrwVi5l
She laughed loudly, "Mr. Wolfe is all about the riches."375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ59VxAFYEEA
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyqEVfbWY6K
I peaked around her seat as a beautiful display of white lights shined out across the lawn lighting up the vehicle as she pulled around a large fountain in the middle of the drive way.375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEB4Xwv451q
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdHPqCCP4Gy
Before us stood a home like nothing I could ever imagine. It's massive structure towered over the yard like a castle.375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl1EeaZju9A
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgDOZUK6pEJ
The garden looked so rich and green even in the dark. I noticed an Olympic size pool and several more ancient statues scattering the lawn that looked to be hundreds of years old.375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJO7p4FbqM6
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsu7ffzIkqQ
"Welcome!" May cheered and turned the car off. "This is Mr. Wolfe's first home he ever purchased. It was built in 1910 and holds a grand library, home theater, indoor pool, and bowling alley."375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoN8HzbQjSc
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRPB5dtFtDK
"He has his own bowling alley?" I gasped.375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBMcVCoeGAA
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpPGpxx7ix0
She nodded and grabbed some bags from the front. "There are also several guest rooms home to Mr. Wolfe's staff including a grand kitchen and beautiful ballroom for entertaining his guests."375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgo5NWUDQp3
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfl9W0F96tn
"Does he have many people over?" I wondered as she came to my door.375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPNlsYRt946
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgISS2RnjIe
"Not often," She shook her head and moved around me. "Mr. Wolfe is a man of...solitude."375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmRhI82a3Ii
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFkANSIZoTv
"What kind of work does he do?" I pushed, hoping May would give up something.375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBbKgXrp6o0
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkMxcpf2Uf5
She averted her eyes, "Honestly, none of us know for sure. It's more of a need to know thing."375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHs5IHk28Rp
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlR8cteqO9T
I nodded, laughing a bit. "Need to know." I repeated.375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFcGMeCejID
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2pokf0JnHR
"Now," May interjected and bumped the door shut with her hip. "Let me show you inside."375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIjv0M4Au1n
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSe3hjXicor
I walked quickly behind her, trying to keep up with her pace. For a woman in her 60's she really does move freaking fast.375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ95Is64YRBq
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMoHNdg69rw
"This is the foyer." She stated as we stepped through the all glass front door.375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9vT43LqyNf
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdKxoAe4ETx
Inside the home was even more elegant. The floors a beautiful warm wood with high expansive ceilings and chandeliers dancing in the light from above.375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPsTipjiS9K
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGEh9e6K67D
Never would've guessed a lonely dude in his 20's lived here. 375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEMEx4rDowt
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZmQR4Ssx8O
"This is stunning," I gasped and watched as several women in maid uniforms hurried over to us, gathering my belongings. "Does Mr. Wolfe have a partner?"375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyToy54IBlN
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtz1sXTAYOc
"Like a wife?"May wondered, giving me a suspicious grin. "He's very single and very gorgeous."375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvXqgCFB4ak
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkL1doHEOwB
I scoffed, "Mrs. Williams! You're married."375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡORo54fIlSS
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5QcTqaDP56
"May," She corrected and chuckled. "Mrs. Williams is so old sounding."375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXmpu6cvhOV
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeBeX9cJRw4
I giggled at her and watched as she led the way up the stairwell that seemed to spiral forever until it reached the next level.375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5K6oZ3cxav
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7ILIMJyh5c
"You'll be staying on this side of the home," She told me and nodded down the hallway. "Your room is the second on the left."375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcqRSBv77iu
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr0FPBlH5cW
"Does he have a lot of other people here?"375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG6zCiaS6QH
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF1XRvwkaTd
She shrugged," Mostly employees really."375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnEIZJ6pQyA
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZg1qwcMTOA
May continued down the long dim-lit hallway and stopped in front of a set of double doors that towered over the both of us.375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlaXLVQKvIv
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG7uFDLRLmE
"Go on." She nodded towards it and waited patiently.375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl9avN25ZSj
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhe4vm7Voq7
I pushed on the doors hard until they groaned apart and swung away from one another. Inside, was a gorgeous room fit with a king sized bed in the middle dressed in the most stunning gold and white silk bedding. Mr. Wolfe had set up the room with items he probably assumed I'd get the most use out of.375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsak8OHIgkV
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWslfbdrLDI
A large flat screen TV sat mounted over a wide dresser supporting a mirror decorated in vanity lights. There was a desk and computer against the furthest wall and what looked to be a reading area made out of bean bags and blankets nestled into a little corner surrounded by book shelves built into the walls.375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI9eON04lUE
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzwirnnEpwo
"Does he like to read?" I wandered and let my fingers brush along the edges of the wood.375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkofsfDXdhS
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡth2VgmoGdz
"I'm not too sure what Mr. Wolfe fancies," May spoke from behind. "I make his meals and see him for all of three minutes before he's gone again."375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRmoiKLhKNS
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCru1ITDc45
"Hmm."375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQF55YTlckZ
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM14SOverLy
"Anyways," May continued and sat the last bag down next to the others. "Check out your closet."375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNJDVDsGqV8
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdGsKugnV13
I followed her gaze towards another set of doors next to where I assumed the bathroom is.  May hurried past me and pushed against the doors. I watched in silence as they opened up to a room tall shelves full of the most elegant shoes dripping in diamonds and silk.375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAIocLA1fSp
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ65Nv9OmHDh
There were rods installed above one another displaying everything from extremely formal ball gowns to plain shirts and jeans. It looked as if most of them had tags still on them, which I definitely wanted to avoid reading.375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRA987kS314
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVHM3MGkycm
"This is..."I started as I lifted up the strap of a Gucci purse.375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwYHEyqgdsS
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGfODdXTeET
"Amazing?" May chirped, eyes lighting up with delight.375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwHo22Vyucj
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn8vt3Uy0Ab
I nodded and set it down, "I was going to say a little but much."375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpazNAnAsMa
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnMMyTdTOq6
"You get used to it."375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQTsHyTiU6n
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvWArgRcCXe
I highly doubt that. 375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4EpNRe7UlF
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL9jWClq2Ey
"Anyways! I'll leave you to settling in for the night. Breakfast will begin at 7 am tomorrow morning." She told me and turned to leave.375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNCpcIgnwZX
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyDDrMe4Ctp
"Will Mr. Wolfe be present?"375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHEh2WqdYPr
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTDOBvZH02T
She stopped, "He doesn't eat with anyone."375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhenPEzhevp
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡegHK5hqEJg
"That's kind of sad." 375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp8b3cvweAF
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLggggMEuxr
She glanced back at me, "I suppose it is."375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWi6z6L42m0
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbuDS0vfBU8
I watched May's back as she exited the room without another word.375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeB7dpvKE6t
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDBRp7tA7sW
I was alone again. For the first time, I had nobody.375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjHR3PAjYsY
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKz5FCP8pnT
Just me.375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiDOTUd6ENJ
