32 Elizabeth, the FRIEND (1/2)

Lyndon plopped down in the bed and closed eyes. He's so tired and exhausted. He did not rest properly since four days prior to his flight. He made sure that there's nothing major will happen to the company while he's in Paris. He also made sure that no one will know where he is aside from Maybel and his family.

He tried to mobilize his exhausted body towards the bathroom to have a shower before going to bed when Butler Chen came knocking at his door.

”Did I told you, not to interrupt me.” he growled at Butler Chen. He's so irritated by this point due to exhaustion and him restraining his inner self earlier. He lashed out his anger to this poor butler in front of him.

”I'm sorry sir, but it's Lady Elizabeth.” said the scared butler. Butler Chen knew that his master is quite a monster when deprived of sleep and rest so he didn't took his anger to heart.

”What about her?” he asked in an annoyed tone.

”She arrived at the manor sir.” reported the poor butler. ”She wished to see you.” the man added.

After he said his piece, Lyndon shut the door in front of him causing a loud bam at his face.

'What to do?' Butler Chen is quite nervous not hearing an answer from his boss. He did not leave at the door either in case his master would come out. He just paced back and fort in front of his boss' door. He couldn't relax because he knew his master's temper now is quite sour so he did not agitate him more.

Elizabeth had been sitting on the couch for about half an hour now. She's a typical French woman but her beauty is still unparalleled. She had an auburn hair and green eyes with small semi-round face and pointed nose with pouty lips. She's quite stunning and alluring to many men but not to Lyndon's eyes. She's what do they called, 'friend-zoned.'

She's sipping some rose tea and eaten an ample amount of short cakes, served by Lyndon's servants. As one could see, not a single ounce of annoyance in her face even though she had long waited for Lyndon and her bum warmed enough the chair to have a smoke coming from it. She just sighed.

'Is he not happy to hear that I am here to welcome him?' she asked herself in her mind. She positioned herself to where she could immediately see Lyndon when he come's down.
