Chapter 4：Hidden Hatred (1/2)
Anya stepped her feet towards her childhood home. Seeing a familiar face, the house guard immediately opened the gate for her. Salim had been working in that house for decades, so he had known Anya since she was a child.
”Wow, Miss Anya, it's rare of you to visit the house these days. Who are you looking for, Miss?” asked Salim. His face, which was old and wrinkled, smiled when he saw Anya.
Anya smiled back at Salim. ”I want to meet Natali, sir.”
Anya did not have time to make small talk with Salim. Right now, her mind was in chaos so she headed straight to the door of the house. Not yet at the door of the house, a middle-aged woman hurried over and stopped her. ”Non, don't go in yet. Just come back tomorrow. The madam was furious, ”She said. This woman was a housemaid who had taken care of Anya since she was a child so that she loves Anya like a daughter.
”What's wrong, Bi Ida?” asked Anya in confusion.
”That, non. Madame…” Ida had not had time to explain what was going on, Mona suddenly appeared and approached Anya. Without further ado, her left hand grabbed Anya's long hair, while her right hand slapped Anya's cheek hard.
”You cheap woman!” She shouted as she kept pulling Anya's hair hard.
Anya felt confused. She just arrived, but Mona suddenly attacked her without explaining what had happened.
Anya tried to fight back. She hit, scratched and did everything she could to get Mona off her hook, ”It hurts, Mrs. Mona. Let go! What did I do wrong?” Her head ached from getting her hair yanked, while her cheeks felt burned from Mona's slap. The scars left by Mona's nails were clearly visible on her white cheeks.
Salim and Ida were very surprised to see this. All of this happened so suddenly that they didn't have time to react. After awakening from their surprise, they rushed over to help Anya. But Mona looked at the two of them sharply and shouted, ”You want me to fire you?”
Mona's normally graceful face became creepy as she glared at the two people, while her eyes were red with anger. Salim and Ida were in a dilemma. They really wanted to help Anya, but they couldn't lose their jobs either. Where should they find a new job with their age like this?
Mona's threat made them stop, but the anxiety did not fade from their faces. They exchanged glances and thought, what could they do to help Anya.
”You bitch! How dare you tease Natali's fiancé! How insolent! ” She said while continuing to pull Anya's hair and beat her.
'Fiance? What does Mona mean?'
”I'm not flirting with Natali's fiancé. I don't know what Mrs. Mona means! ” cried Anya.
”Can you still deny it? You women don't know themselves!” Mona pushed Anya to her knees on the ground. Her right foot, wearing high heels, kicked Anya's body.
Anya could only curl up, trying to protect herself from Mona's kicks and punches, ”I don't understand at all. What did I do wrong? I just want to meet Natali…”
��What are you looking for Natali for? Now my daughter is crying because of your actions. You have ruined Natali and her fiancé's relationship. You have destroyed this family.” Shouted Mona.
Anya really didn't know what made Mona beat her like this. She came to this house to ask for an explanation for Natali's actions, but she got beaten for what she did not do.
