The Richman - Shocking Betrayal

Christabell and Richard's relationship grew closer. Richard grew warmer and loved Christabell more and more, while the girl depended on him more and more. However, Richard's busy life as a businessman required them to separate for some time because Richard had to go on a business trip to another state. Unmitigated, this time he did the official trip for four days plus the remaining day to visit Eleonore, her stepmother. And during those five days, both Richard and Christabell had to harbor their respective longings.

During the visit, Richard brought gifts to Eleonore and Brandon. To Eleonore because Richard felt bad for treating Brandon that way because that bastard was harassing Christabell. Even though it's not his fault, but to maintain a good relationship with Eleonore and her son, Richard is willing to come and apologize. All that he did to honor his late father.

Eleonore seemed a little cold in response to Richard's arrival this time, not without reason. She had heard the story from her son Brandon that Richard had a gun to his head because Brandon was approaching a girl at Richard's house.

"I'm here to apologize, I know you've heard it from Brandon." Said Richard started the conversation.

Eleonore took a deep breath, she looked at Richard irritably, "I didn't expect you to have the heart to point a gun at the head of my son, who is your brother for a servant." Her expression was full of disappointment.

"You and Brandon lived together for many years as brothers, and you were willing to almost kill your brother for the servant who had only been working for you a few days." She added with an annoyed face.

"I am sorry," Richard said again not because he was truly sorry, but he did not want to prolong the matter and make it more complicated.

"If Brandon likes the maids in your house, let it be. Ever since he was a kid he always gave in to you, what's the problem this time you gave in for him. Besides, you can find dozens of servants who are even better than the servants Brandon wanted." Eleonore defended her son.

"She works for me, but the girl is not a servant. I'll marry her soon." Richard replied.

"Are you crazy to marry a maid? Richard, you can choose any girl you like. Is it difficult for you to find other women from any circle, why do you always have to grab what Brandon likes? Since you were little I refrained from saying this, but it hurts me to see you always win it all over my son. Your father's love, all of your expensive gifts, the best schools, even your father's company, and now the maid in your house will you marry to destroy my son? "

"I came to see you with a gift that you and Brandon like because I respect you as my father's wife. And for my decision to marry that girl, it has nothing to do with Brandon, because I have decided since the first time I met that girl." Said, Richard. "You should be grateful I didn't pull the trigger and make your son of a bitch lose his head trying to harass my woman."

"Your father must be very disappointed in who you are now Richard. You are successful, but you are still a bitter man. You never really liked me and my son. You were very cunning." Eleonore raised her voice, looking angry.

"Your father must be very disappointed in who you are now Richard. You are successful, but you are still a bitter man. You never really liked me and my son. You were very cunning." Eleonore raised her voice, looking angry.

"Whatever you say, I have transferred two million dollars to your account. Live well with your beloved son and teach him manners and ethics, I hope you are not too late to improve your son's morals." Richard rose to his feet, he left the Louis Vuttion bag worth hundreds of thousands of dollars as a present to his stepmother.

Talking at length to like-minded people was a waste of time, and Richard hated to waste time. All he wanted to do right now was to go back home and make love to Christabell, fuck the rest.

Richard immediately went to the airport and waited until his private jet was allowed to fly, given the bad weather that was happening at that time. Richard waited anxiously and the pilot met him to explain the reason for the flight delay to Richard, his boss who had been waiting anxiously.

"The weather is bad and we have to wait until we are allowed to fly by the Air Traffic Control tower." Said the Pilot.

"How long do we have to wait?" Richard asked anxiously, not without reason. Richard was nervous because he couldn't reach Christabell's cell phone. Meanwhile, when he called home, no one picked up his call. Richard felt that something was wrong, which was why he wanted to get home quickly and confirm Christabell's situation.

"I have not got confirmation yet sir, but I will inform you after I get confirmation from the ATC tower." Replied the pilot.

"Ok." Nodding Richard, he tried to calm himself down and was quite helped by the incoming calls from his business associates. For the next half hour, Richard was preoccupied with talking about the cooperation of his company and its partner companies. Ten minutes after Richard's call ended, the pilot approached him and said they were allowed to take off in half an hour.

"How long are we going to land in New York?" Richard asked the flight attendants, and the flight attendant seemed to ask Richard to wait because she had to confirm with the pilot or co-pilot who drove the plane.

The flight attendant returned with the news that they would be landing in about an hour and twenty minutes. Besides, the stewardess poured wine for Richard, but the man refused.

He seemed busy looking at the last message Chritsabell had sent him. "I can't wait for you to come home." Christabel wrote before Richard met Eleonore a few hours ago. That was the last time Christabell replied to her messages, she didn't even answer Richard's calls so many times that the man became frustrated.

Once home, Richard immediately went to Christabell's room because he did not see the girl on the first floor. The only one he wants to meet is the girl and hopes to get a warm welcome from her, hugs, kisses, and more.

But when Richard opened the door to his room and called out Christabell's name, he didn't get an answer. Richard spread his gaze across the room and found the Christabell cell phone that Richard had given her, lying on the pillow with a letter. Richard took the letter and read its contents;

Dear Mr. Richard. I'm sorry for going this way. I don't want to hurt you, but my being in that house is only a problem for you. I really feel like I don't belong in your stately home, and cause trouble. Thank you for all your kindness so far. -Christabell-

Richard read the letter and became very suspicious. If Christabell had intended to leave him, he would not have written such a stiff letter, let alone their relationship was not as employer and servant. The feeling between them was deeper than that, and Chritsabell could not possibly leave it, was what Richard believed.

He went down to the first floor, ignored all his tiredness, and gathered all the employees on the first floor. Richard asked all the servants in the house the same question.

"Where's Christabell?" He asked and no one dared to answer.

"Who was it that presumptuously kicked her out without my knowledge?!" Richard looks angry and everyone is scared, including Mrs. Norah also looked pale.

With a shaky voice and a pale face, Mrs. Norah answered Richard's question. "Maybe he went of his own accord sir." The answer.

"Impossible." Refuted Richard. "Mrs. Norah, you are the butler in this house. You are in charge of all the people who work for me in this house, how can you be negligent with your duties?!"

"Some of the servants just don't know themselves until they act on their own. I'd better clean up her room and find a new maid to replace her, sir." Answered Mrs. Norah.

"I don't like hearing the way you judge it," Richard replied.

"It's not fair if you blame me for one of the new servants in this house choosing to quit her job on her own initiative. She doesn't have any specialties, sir, I'm sure I could find a better servant than her." Mrs. Norah explained, but Richar's expression seemed even angrier.

"If none of you find Christabell, then you won't be working again from tomorrow morning. Unless someone tells me honestly what happened." Richard threatened before he walked into his room. Richard threw himself on the sofa and tried to contact his trusted people to help find Christabell.

Suddenly a maid knocked on Richard's door and he let her in. Richard was not familiar with her face because this was the first time they met.

"Sir, please don't fire me. I really need this job," She said in a trembling voice, pale face, and teary eyes. "Instead I will say everything I know."

"Say it." Richard looked deeply at the maid.

"Yesterday I saw her tied up, Mrs. Norah caught me and threatened to fire me if I told anyone else." She said.

Richard was quite a shock, but he couldn't just let his golden informant loose until he found another clue as to where Christabell was. "What is your name?" Asked Richard.

"Olivia." The girl replied innocently.

"I'm not going to fire you, tell me what do you know other than that?"

"She gagged Bell's mouth and tied his hands together."

"Where?!"

"In the back shed yesterday sir, when I came to help her, Mrs. Nourah threatened to injure my grandmother. So I couldn't do anything until a car came and took Christabell."

"Dammed !!!" I hit the table, it's frustrating.

"Exit!" I snapped.

"Please protect my grandmother, sir. I'm really afraid of the woman's threat."

"Get out right now !!!" I snapped again, fuck everyone else, I'm just afraid if something happens to the Christabells.

After all, that old lady, who the hell is she?!

I already think of her and treat like my own mother, but why did she have the heart to betray me!
