A Miracle Fault

Chapter 82 The Fiancé She Never Met Before

And there were no servants here. She was afraid of the dark and of thunder.

"The president will come back. The Filipino maid, Mary, will take care of your daily needs." Jay glanced at Agnes. "Miss Jones, if you don't need anything else from me, I'll be leaving."

"Okay. Thank you." As long as there was a servant, then she would not be the only one in the villa. Although she liked peace and quiet, this was a place she was not familiar with at all.

Agnes opened the door gently. The villa was newly decorated. The luxurious furniture inside revealed that the person living inside was of the upper class.

Looking down and seeing the new women's slippers on the shoe rack, she put them on and walked in.

There was a woman in the kitchen who was bending over as she sorted out ingredients. Agnes walked over, "Hello!"

The woman immediately looked up at Agnes with a smile. "Hi, hello, is this Miss Jones? I'm Mary, and I'll take care of you in the future. If you need anything, please don't hesitate to tell me!"

"You can speak Chinese?" She did not expect Mary to speak Chinese. She suddenly felt a lot closer to her. Content property of NôvelDra/ma.Org.

"Yes, my dear. Mr. Roberts said that you are Chinese. I served a Chinese master for three years in the past, so Mandarin is not difficult for me." Mary enthusiastically led Agnes to the couch.

"Miss, please takes a rest first. Dinner will be ready soon." She took Agnes' luggage upstairs and then went to the kitchen to cook.

It was late at night, and Agnes sat in the bedroom alone. Mary left after she had dinner.

She was truly alone in the huge villa.

There were five or six bedrooms upstairs. She randomly chose one to stay in.

She looked around and found that all the rooms were empty except for the first one, which someone used to live in, and another one, which was locked.

The first one must belong to the fiancé she never met before.

She opened the window and looked at the stars in the sky as the night wind blew.

She turned around and walked into the bathroom with her pajamas. After taking a shower, she sat on the bed, turned on her phone, and logged into QQ.

When she saw Lena and Emmeline online, the three chatted happily.

Agnes: Hello, dears. Did you guys come to chat with me because you knew that I'm lonely?

Lena: Are you not with your fiancé? You just arrived today. You should go with him to the Victoria River to see the night scene.

Agnes: I haven't seen him yet. I'm living alone in a huge villa. (sad)

Emmeline: ... Agnes, where did he go?

Agnes: I don't know. It has nothing to do with me. I'm going to go to school tomorrow to see if there are any self-study classes. If so, I'm going to go to class.

Lena: Oh, my dear Agnes. I feel bad for you. Ugh, your fiancé doesn't get it. How can he leave a beauty in the villa all alone?

Agnes: Come on, I'm don't care. I'm fine alone!

Emmeline: Take care of yourself and call us if anything comes up.

Agnes: It's okay, don't worry. Have you forgotten who I am? I'm Agnes, someone who won't ever be defeated! Haha, nothing will happen...

After logging out her QQ, she lay on the bed and closed her eyes.

It suddenly rained heavily in the middle of the night. Sounds of thunder woke her up. Looking at the trees dance outside the window, she was so scared that she covered her head with the quilt.

She hid tightly beneath the quilt until dawn.

Not knowing how much time passed, the quilt was suddenly pulled away from her.

"Ah!" She yelled!

"Miss Jones, it's me. What's the matter with you?" Mary arrived a long time ago. Since Agnes still wasn't up, she decided to check out her room.

To her surprise, she saw Agnes asleep and covered by the quilt, so she reached out and took the quilt away. It made Agnes scream in fright.

"Mary, it's you..." She looked at the window. Rays of the sun shone inside. It was past daybreak.

"What's the matter with you? Were you afraid? Or did you have a dream?"

"...No" She was too embarrassed to admit that she was afraid of thunder.

"It's okay, you weren't used to it. Did you miss your family? It'll be fine when President Roberts comes back." Mary handed Agnes clothes with a smile.

"Miss Jones, do you need me to help you change? Breakfast is ready." Mary was a caring maid.

"I can do it myself. Thank you Mary. You can head downstairs first. I'll be right there."

After Agnes had breakfast, she went to the school that grandpa arranged for her. She met Professor Tom, her advisor in France.

Tom had long brown hair. He was thin and tall. There were two deep dimples on his face when he smiled.

"Miss Jones, I didn't expect you to come so soon. I thought you would have to wait until it was time for school. Well, it's great that you came. A compulsory course for this summer is art. It suits you well. Would you like to come?" Tom grinned, showing his white teeth.

"Yes, I would like to, Professor Tom. You're the most handsome advisor I've ever seen!" Agnes could not help but flatter the professor.

"Hahaha...You are so cute, Miss Jones. I hope we have a great time together in future studies!"

From that day on, Agnes focused on school.

One week later, her so-called fiancé still did not appear. Agnes smiled.

Very well, so what if he would not show up? They each had their lives to live anyway.

But she thought that he was quite rude. He should come back and say hello even if she was just a guest. He must dislike her a lot that he had yet to show up. Oh well, she liked her peace and quiet.

Agnes stood on the balcony watching the sunrise and sunset every day. She decided not to think about that fiancé again. She wanted to live her own life.

It was good that he did not show up, so she did not need to worry about not knowing how to face a stranger like him. Her lively character quickly made her classmates like her.

There was a girl from Australia whose name was Aileen. They hit it off and quickly became good friends.

"Agnes, come to my house after class today. I'll cook some local cuisine for you." Aileen had big wavy hair that covered her small face.

Her face that was only as big as a palm looked even more petite.

"Local cuisine?" She had never heard of any of this from Australia. All she knew was that steak was cheap and delicious there.

"Yes, dear. Let's go. You'll know when you are there." Aileen would not take no for an answer.

Agnes thought that she would be all alone when she went home, so she might as well visit her house.

Agnes followed Aileen to her home. Aileen had an older brother and mother, both of whom worked in France.

When Agnes walked in, Aileen's family was very happy that dinner was filled with laughter. It was the first time that Agnes felt happy, having been here for so long.

Aileen's brother, Lanchester, was gentle and reserved. It was very gentlemanly of him to place vegetables on Agnes' plate, help her cut steak, and tell her to help herself. They were all from different countries, and it was fate that brought them together here.

Agnes readily accepted the family's enthusiasm. After a good dinner, Lanchester sent Agnes home.

When the car drove into Weamont Estate I, Agnes saw that lights were on in the villa. She thought to herself, "Was Mary still waiting for her?"
