The Billionaire's Naughty Maid

Chapter 5- The Vincenzo Mansion

I was led by one of the guards into the mansion and men did I just say mansion? It was a damn castle. I couldn't stop staring like a kid visiting Wonderland for the first time. I had seen a fair share of big buildings but none of them compares to this. I had to caution myself to behave. I just followed the guard silently until we reached the door. He just knocked on the door once and then he left. I stood at the door confused when I suddenly heard a male voice from inside telling me to come in.

As I made a move to open the door I stepped on something, I looked down and it was an envelope, it must have fallen off from someone, I bent down to pick it up and to my surprise, I got a glimpse of what was inside and it was cash. I opened the door with the envelope still in my hands, when I was fully inside the office, I saw a man who looked to be in his late twenties, he was in a business suit and sitting down on the couch.

I took a quick glance around the office and it was quite huge. I returned my eyes to the man and he had one brow raised in question. I cleared my throat in embarrassment.

"Good day, sir." He simply gave me a nod before before gesturing for me to take a seat. I was about to sit when I remembered the envelope still in my hands.

"Uhm sir, I found this outside the door, must have fallen off someone," I said as I stretched my hand to the man but he didn't even make an attempt to collect it, he only gave me a sign to sit. I sat down not wanting to make him angry.

"Miss Katherine Westbrook?"

"Yes Sir."

"I'm going to tell you what the job is all about even if you know what you should be doing but here there are rules as you'll be the boss's personal maid and I'll be showing you around the mansion so you can start tomorrow." As soon as those words left his mouth it was like the whole world stopped, what was he trying to say, so far he hasn't asked me any questions. And from what he just said I got the job. Was I dreaming?

I was sure surprise was written all over my face, who wouldn't be? "Miss Westbrook, there's no need to be surprised. Your interview was a test and you passed, As you know, the owner of this mansion is a wealthy man and you don't think anyone could get through that gate without a background check-up." When he mentioned background checks my heart skipped a beat, I was tempted to ask him what he knew about me.

"Before we let anyone into this mansion an investigation is carried out about the person as we wouldn't be careless to let just anyone into the mansion, our boss is a billionaire, young and successful which means many enemies. For the past two weeks, different girls have worked through that door but none of them passed the test, you were the last on the list." He explained I was confused about what test he was talking about.

"The envelope." He gestured to the envelope I had placed on my lap…"Just like that envelope, you have with you, the same way I've dropped several expensive things just right in front of the door where anyone could see it just like you did, but the difference is none of them tried to return it. I cannot employ a dishonest person as the boss's maid. And that envelope is your welcome package" My eyes grew large as I looked down at the envelope on my lap. I quickly composed myself muttering a thank you.

Now I understood why he was giving me that look, right from the moment I stood at that door my chances of getting the job were already decided, and I am glad I made the right choice. I finally relaxed myself, smiling at the man.

"By the way am Henry Ford. Manager of the Vincenzo Mansion." He said as he stretched his hand getting up for a shake, I quickly got up accepting his handshake.

"Congratulations. I'll show you around the mansion while I explain what the boss expects."

Mr. Henry Ford turned out to be a friendly and nice man, he took his time to show me the part of the mansion I mean castle we could cover, it was so huge. Basically, my job was to prepare the boss's meal, clean his room, do his laundry, and help him in any other way he needed me to. I didn't have to clean the whole house because there were other maids for that.

That's why I was his personal maid. By the time we were done with the house tour, I was tired. Finally, he showed me the room I would be staying in, It was beautiful, and according to him, it was on the same floor as the boss. He showed me the boss's room and reminded me to always knock. I was expected to go pack my things, Mr. Ford told me there would be people available to help me move my things from my house to the mansion. I couldn't be more happy to hear that.

I couldn't hide the smile on my face, I was beyond happy, it finally happened, am not going to keep explaining to anyone why getting a maid job would make me this happy, but I knew what this meant to me.

As I got to my apartment I threw myself on my bed in happiness, I wanted to scream, I would be leaving this shitty neighborhood. I called Anna as soon as could calm down. She picked on the first ring and before I could speak she beat me to it.

"Congratulations girl!" What! How did she know?

"How did you know I got the job? Don't tell me you're stalking me again."

"You wish." Came her reply.

"I just knew you were going to get the job. Am glad you did." We talked for a while, I told her about what I was expected to do and all. After I ended the call with Anna, I called Jordan. I told him everything I told Anna, he was a little upset he won't be able to come into my house and leave as he pleases as I'll be moving into the mansion, he was worried he wouldn't be able to come to visit but I told him I'll make sure to visit him as often as I could that he'll be tired of me.

When we finally finished talking I dropped my phone by the bedside table and started arranging the things I would be taking with me. By the time I was done packing, it was already dark outside and I was exhausted, deciding to call it a night, I thanked God that today went well and happily jumped into my bed with the biggest smile I've had on in a long while. Knowing that tomorrow would be a new chapter in my life.
