The Woman the Lord Pays
First Offence

Before going to work, Eliana cleans her mother's body first and helps her mother put on clean clothes first. Although there was a nurse who would do it but he wanted to do it for his mother.

Eliana did it before she went to work. As much as possible he should be able to spend time with his mother because he knows, their time together will not be long anymore.

Doctors have said that his mother will not recover from the late-stage cancer that gnawed at her mother's uterus. Although Eliana knows there is no hope for her mother, she still fights for her mother. He wanted to give his best to his mother until she was gone.

Anna Bowie smiled as her daughter put her clothes on. If she doesn't have Eliana, I don't know what's going to happen to her right now. Luckily she has a daughter who cares and loves her so much that someone notices her but she never knows what she is doing for her sake.

"What time are you coming back, Eliana?" ask mother.

"Maybe morning" Eliana seemed nervous because she had to go again to do her second duty.

"Don't work too much, you need to rest" his mother said.

"Mommy doesn't have to worry, I've rested before I get back."

"If so tell Mommy, what kind of job did you take?" her mother just wants to know what her daughter is doing but the question sounds so scary to Eliana that she doesn't dare to answer because she knows, again she has to deceive her mother. I don't know when he had to cheat on his mother, he doesn't know.

"Eliana, why don't you answer?You didn't do the dirty work to get Mommy's medical expenses, did you?" ask her mother suspiciously.

"No, of course not, Mom. I work in a bar, being a waiter so Mommy doesn't have to worry. I don't do the dirty work that Mommy worries about" he said, but what he's doing right now is no different than what his mother said.

"Mommy's happy to hear that, honey. Don't let you do that because Mommy won't like it and Mommy will never forgive you!" the words his mother said were like a slap to Eliana.

Eliana tried to hold back tears, it turns out that what she did was not liked by her mother. Has he made a wrong decision? No, he thinks not. He made no mistake in making the decision because he would not be able to get his mother kicked out of the hospital and lie at home without medical treatment. His mother would quickly leave him if he did nothing.

"I've got to go, Mom," Eliana said after she finished helping her mother clean up and after her mother lay down.

"Be careful, honey. Mommy will be waiting for you to come back" his mother said.

"I'll bring you Mommy's favorite meal tomorrow" Eliana kissed her on her mother's forehead and then she left with a smile but it wasn't long, the tears she was holding were spilled while she was outside.

Eliana walked away with tears flowing. As his mother said, he was dirty, completely dirty. He sold himself, even though he only served one man. The words spoken by his mother really made him sad even though his mother did not mean to offend him.

Eliana's steps came to a halt, Eliana crouched down on the floor and cried while covering her face using her arms. Why does it feel painful?

"I'm sorry, Mom. I'm sorry, "that's all he can say. She had to close the secret tightly, her mother could not figure out what she was doing.

"You can do it, Eliana" he told himself. Eliana moved as she wiped her tears violently. He can do it, he can do it so he can't give up. After all there is a contract, it is not as safe as he would do that.

Eliana stepped back, it was time to go to work. He should not be late especially the restaurant will be crowded at lunchtime. Eliana arrives at the restaurant, not knowing that Ray has sent two men to watch over her. He has to remember the agreement he signed but until now Eliana has not studied its contents and what he can do and what he should not do also whatever it will happen after she gets pregnant.

Both Ray's men continued to watch him, their eyes could not be separated from Eliana even until Eliana rested after lunch and the visitors were not too crowded.

A fellow man approached just to give her a drink.

"Thank you" Eliana smiled, and the colleague sat down for a moment to talk to her.

"How's your mother doing?"

"All right, thank you."

"If there's time, I'll go visit your mother with the others."

"Thank you, I'm looking forward to it" Eliana still smiled but the smile disappeared when she saw Ray calling her.

Eliana passed away to answer Ray's call. She was afraid that someone would hear her talk with Ray.

"A-What's up, Ray?"

"Miss, you're violating the contract, '" Ray said.

"What do you mean?" eliana did not understand.

"During being Young Master's hired woman, you were forbidden to talk to any man and you just broke. The agreement will be void and Miss Eliana will have to pay the penalty."

"What?" Eliana was surprised, she did not remember any such agreement.

"I'm going to see Miss to cancel the agreement!"

"What's? No, Ray. Please don't do it. I didn't know there was such a deal so please don't neglect it!!" pinta Eliana pleaded.

"You're supposed to abide by every deal!" said Ray.

"I haven't learned it, I really don't know. Please don't cancel this agreement, I beg your generosity" he still pleaded. However, the agreement should not be canceled because he is the one who will lose and again, the hospital costs have not been paid off.

"Please, Ray. Please, don't cancel the deal. I'm willing to do anything but don't cancel" Eliana said. Her tears were almost spilled, she really did not know that she should not talk to any man as long as she played the role of a paid woman.

"Did Miss Eliana promise not to do it again?" ask Ray. He was so sorry for that girl. Anyway Morgan doesn't know yet so he'll help cover it up.

"I promise, I won't do it again. I will also study the contents of the contract well. I beg you not to cancel the deal."

"Alright, but I hope Miss doesn't repeat it because there's no next time!" threatening Ray. He hopes the girl is smart.

"I promise, I promise!" eliana's tears spilled, she really didn't want to, but it all happened.

"If so as punishment, Miss Eliana must clean the whole house. I'll call Greta later, do the job well and don't repeat the same mistake."

"I won't repeat it, thank you for being so kind to me!" his tears were flowing more and more, would he be able to with the rules? He had better study all the contents of the agreement so that he would not make a mistake a second time because he did not want the existing agreement to be void so he lost.
