What Will You Do?
Cassie eventually moved over to Ragnar Marshall’s house. From the top of the house, Brigitta watched as the new butler, Rollo helped Cassie carry her luggage to the room. Brigitta’s only concern was her children.
She should be able to handle Cassie but she was not sure Cassie wouldn’t hurt her kids. She then thought it best to inform Ragnar Marshall about this.
Cassie shot one glance of beef at Brigitta before dissapearing into the room she would be staying.
“If you need anything, please reach out to me.” Rollo said, after helping Cassie take her luggage inside.
“I’ll be needing you for hundreds of things. How loyal are you, Rollo?” She asked, staring directly into his eyes.
“Loyal enough to be trusted by Mr. Ubba, The great Ragnar Marshall.” He said.
“Okay, how often does Mr. Ragnar comes home?” Cassie asked.
“Ragnar Marshall has lots of schedules and barely comes home. But on an average, I’ll say once a week.” He replied.
“Okay, if I need anything else, I’ll let you know.”
“Okay,” Rollo then walked away.
Cassie wondered why a butler will be this hot and drop dead gorgeous.
When Ragnar Marshall came home, Rollo informed him about Cassie’s presence so once he was done in his room, he went over to her room and knock. He could have invited her over to his room but he chose not to.
Once the door was opened, Cassie said happily, “welcome, Mr. Ubba.”
“You already know I’m Ragnar Marshall so just address me as that. But remember what I told you, no one must find out that I, Mr. Ubba is also Ragnar Marshall.” He warned.
“Definitely, Mr. Ragnar. Please come inside,” Cassie said merrily and he walked in. He walked to the baby’s bed where Cassie’s baby laid and looked very closer at the baby. This was the first time he was seeing the baby and the baby looked okay. He didn’t look paralyzed or like someone with a mental disorder.
“I may be lucky with this baby,” he mumbled to himself. The baby was already seven months old. “If this baby survives the next two months, then I’ll take it that God has favored me.”
Cassie smiled, “our baby sure has the gift of long life. I haven’t given him a name yet, though. Please christien him.”
“I’ll christen him when he’s ten months old.” He assured her and then took a few walks away from the baby’s bed, “I believe this room is okay for you?”
“Sure, even better than I originally thought.”
“And I believe you have seen Brigitta. Just like I said in our previous conversation, she’s the wife while you are the mistress, that is the reality now. Avoid her as much as you can and focus on raising your baby.”
“I won’t give you unnecessary headaches. As you can already tell, I’m a very easy going woman.” Cassie responded.
He nodded and glanced at the baby once more then he began to walk out.
Cassie was shocked, “sir …”
Ragnar turned and gave her a questioning look.
“It seems you are leaving already. Can you spend some time with me, please?”
“This place smells unpleasant. I think your baby needs a clean up.” Then he walked out.
Cassie felt very embarrassed. She walked to the baby and as she moved her nose closer, she could also perceive the smell. “you stupid baby, how dare you shit again!” She felt like slapping the baby to death. She had cleaned up for the baby earlier and had wore another pampas for her, yet, the baby already defecated in that pampas and now she must change it.
If this was baby was her own, maybe she wouldn’t have mind. But this was someone else’s baby. If not that she needs this baby to win Ragnar Marshall’s favor, she would have already killed this baby by now.
Ragnar Marshall had told her in their previous lenghty conversation that Brigitta had five babies and that those babies must not be touched nor harmed in any way by her. Ragnar Marshall was speaking possessively of the kids as though he’s their father. Was Ragnar Marshall really the kid’s father? Can’t be. Cassie concluded.
Ragnar Marshall had told her when she was pregnant that he has never given birth to healthy babies, perhaps because he’s cursed or maybe he has some weird and serious medical problems.
She would like to know Brigitta’s kids. She had already informed Alex Roberto that Brigitta has five kids. Afterall, she was working for Alex Roberto eventhough, at this moment, she wants to win Ragnar Marshall all to herself. That way, she will even be more powerful than Alex himself.
Brigitta was watering her little garden in the compound of the house when she noticed someone’s presence behind her. On turning, she saw Ragnar Marshall. Ragnar Marshall had seen this new garden in his compound but he didn’t know it was Brigitta who built it.
“Hi, ” she greeted merrily. “Just watering my garden.” She smiled even more.
He walked towards the garden and examined her plants, “my late mother also had a little garden in the Wigglesworth’s villa. She waters it everyday just like you do.”
She blushed but didn’t say any word.
“I don’t have any intention of having any woman in my life but in a twist of fate, I now have two.” He said.
“Don’t bother about it.” Brigitta said. “The more you think about it is the more you feel burndened.”
He hummed.
“And… Can you please tell Cassie to avoid my kids?”
“I already did. You should do well to avoid her too. I’ll be traveling now and would be back by Sunday evening.”
“Oh… okay. Stay safe.” The day was a Friday.
He nodded and turned but suddenly paused, he turned back to her and said, “do you remember that night you slept beside me… I didn’t have the nightmares that had troubled me for many years all my life.”
“Is that true?”
“I slept sound like a baby. Thank you.” Then he walked away.
Brigitta was happy to hear that, he even thanked her, something he would never do before. Brigitta then turned back to her plants and continued watering it. As every day passes, her love for Ragnar Marshall kept growing.
“I wonder what he’s talking to you about,” Cassie suddenly appeared and said. She had a malicious look on.
“Didn’t Ragnar Marshall tell you to avoid me?” Brigitta said but Cassie suddenly went into her garden and began to match on the plants, kicking it and destroying it in any way she can.
Her six weeks plant were now trampled as they had been matched on, she had a purpose for the plant and now this?
“What will you do, huh? Ragnar Marshall won’t be around until Sunday evening so?” She said proudly.This text is property of Nô/velD/rama.Org.
Brigitta swallowed hard, trying her very best to control her anger, “thank you ” she even thanked her and walk away. She will definately deal with her but not in an irrational way.
That wasn’t the reaction Cassie was expecting from Brigitta, she could only grit her teeth as she watched Brigitta walk away.
Whereas, there was someone standing upstairs, watching the whole scene.
