“Can I borrow your phone, please? I need to make a call,” she asked in a low voice.

Once she was safely back home.
Rachel sat on the sofa with a warm towel thrown over her knees. She looked at the maid standing in the corner of the room, waiting for further instructions, her eyes downcast.
“Do you need me to change your hot towel, Miss Bennet?” The maid raised her eyes and looked at Rachel timidly as she asked the question.
“No, thanks.” Rachel threw the hot towel into a basin besides her feet.
“Where are all the servants?”
“They… they left a few hours after you’re taken away by those men.
They- they said that you wouldn’t come back, and that since Mr. and Mrs. Jenkins weren’t here either, those that stayed here would have a hard time. So, they followed Viola’s lead and left to work for Mrs.
Jenkins,” the maid explained, her voice getting Lower with each word.

“Why didn’t you go with them?” Rachel leaned her head against the back of the sofa. She felt exhausted, which was not surprising, considering she had barely slept these past three days. It was really hard to get some rest while being kept prisoner, forced to kneel on the ground the whole time.
Rachel had thought that she could finally rest when she returned home, but it wasn’t going to happen. All the servants were gone and she had to do something about it.
Only one maid left in the house. Thankfully, the rest of the staff were not bold enough to steal some valuables as they left. They had just packed their own things and disappeared.
The maid bit her lips and said, “I’m a little clumsy. Mrs. Jenkins and Miss Jenkins never really liked me. Even if I followed the other servants to work for them, I am pretty sure they would turn me away.”
Rachel smiled fondly.
The maid lowered her head quickly, as though she had misspoken.
“Then how did you know that I would keep you? As you said, you are clumsy. Why should I let you stay, if you are not fit for the job?”

Rachel asked, her eyebrows raised.
The girl looked up in fear and then she quickly lowered her head again. Staring at her feet, she squeaked, “I’m- I’m sorry, Miss Bennet.”
The girl was so timid that Rachel didn’t have the heart to tease her any longer.
“Forget it. I can’t find another servant in such a short time. You may stay,” she said.
The door opened right after she had finished her sentence and Andy came in carrying a bag with medical supplies.
When Rachel had borrowed that nurse’s phone back in the hospital, she had called Andy to come pick her up.
She had been on her knees for too long. She was in so much pain afterwards that she could barely stand.
When Andy arrived at the hospital and saw her, he was shocked. He carried her to the car and he dropped her off at the house before he went out again to buy her some medicine.
“You may return to your work,” Rachel told the maid, trying to stifle a yawn.
