Standing Right Next To You Chapter 364
Advertisement
Mandy, who had just left her faithful servant's room blushed when she recalled his face.
His clothes fitted his body perfectly and were unlike the ill-fitted servant's uniform that she was used to seeing every day as he served her.
The muscles on his shoulders, arms, and chest were still vivid in her mind which only caused the heat in her cheeks to intensify.
The marks on his face had only increased his charm in her eyes which was now making her look at him in a different light.
'I always knew that he had a good looking face but… Hot damn!' She squealed in her heart as she hastened her steps to reach her room.
The maid following her did not understand why they were practically power walking out of the servant quarters but she did not utter a single word as she followed this young miss.
Mandy did not want anyone to see her flushed cheeks which only made her move faster as she headed to her room.
Soon, they reached her room in the Outer Block where she and her mother resided in.
Opening her door, she entered the room and slammed the door shut right on the maid's face who stood outside with confusion apparent in her eyes.
Inside her room, Mandy finally had the opportunity to look at her blushing appearance in the mirror which only made her feel shy once again.
'Do I like Richy?' She wondered and cupped her heated cheeks in her palms.
Today, she had gone to visit her servant to check on his health but as it turns out she had seen a whole different side of him.
His tousled hair was different from his usual neatly combed hair which swept to the side while his clothes accentuated and flaunted his chiseled body.
Mandy always had a soft corner in her heart for men who looked like the bad boy type and Richy's current appearance had hit the spot for her.

'He looked like a sexy gangster with those bruises.' She bit her lower lip when she recollected that face.
Her appreciation for his presence in her life was growing with every thought she had about him.
She was still unaware of the fact that the feelings hidden in her heart for her cousin Wayne were now being transferred to this servant who was always by her side and supported her.
"He is so cute when he blushes!" She muttered to herself and fell to her bed while hugging her pillow.
Richy was gaining a higher place in her heart and the person who should be thanked for this was none other than Lina's assistant, Benji as he had given those bruises to the servant.
While Mandy was rolling on her bed as she tried to recollect the memories that had just been created, there was someone who was trying hard to wipe a certain memory from their brain.

Sitting in a dark room with no lights turned on, a woman clenched her fists around the phone which was in her hand.
"They humiliated me, Uncle!" She snarled into the phone, at the person who had been speaking to her.
A gentle voice echoed in the room, probably from the speaker of the phone which was by her ear.
"Have I not told you to stay away from that idiot from the Luo family?" A man whispered his reply to her words.
Though his voice sounded gentle, the woman knew that there was a warning hidden in them.
Jeanette Liang, the woman sitting in the dark bedroom sniffled as tears began flowing from her eyes after hearing his stern words.
'Daddy is also against my relationship and now even uncle is the same!' She mourned that there was no one around her who could understand her love for the Luo family heir.
She had called her uncle to pour out the suffering she felt during the tea party which he had listened in silence, letting her vent out all of her anger before him.

However, after everything was said it seemed that he was also like her father and did not support the feelings she had for Wayne Luo.
"I hate you too!" She cried out, aggrieved and saddened by his lack of support.
The Uncle froze when he heard her sobbing words of hate, making him panic as he had never heard her say such things ever before.
Soon the panic faded when he recalled the reason why she had used such harsh words for him.
No matter how much he disliked the sound of those words, his dislike for the Luo family was much higher which made him grit his teeth and did not console her.
Jeanette was waiting for some sort of comfort coming from him but found none.
"My opinion about this will not change, Jeanie." He spoke after a long silence.
He did not want his beloved niece to waste her precious youth running after a man who was not worth her time and efforts.
Thus, he was stern in his answer that she would not gain any help from him in this regard.
"I had helped you the last time because you said that he was tossing Lina aside for you." He expanded on his answer.
Jeanette's frown softened when she recalled the memory of the time she and Wayne had spent in the hospital room after Lina had 'injured' her.
She had called her uncle who was an important figure in the medical field which was the only reason why the upright attending doctor had made a false medical report for her.
"If I had known that you were trying to use that opportunity to get closer to him then I never would have helped you." He added when he noticed her silence.
When he had received the call from his niece, he had been in an important meeting and only had a few seconds to talk to her.
In her hurried explanation, she had only mentioned that she needed his aid to prove that Lina had injured her.
As any loving uncle would, he helped her out as he did not want anyone to point their fingers at his niece.
However, now he knew the entire truth that she had ulterior motives on that day as she wished to gain the care of the man in her heart.
Now that he was well aware of the entire situation, he did not wish to lend her any of his assistance as that would only ruin her life.
"Forget about that womanizer." He advised as his gentle and indulgent tone returned.
Jeanette gnashed her teeth when she heard what he was asking was close to impossible for her.
Even now, she was sure that it was the circumstances that had made Wayne deny their relationship during the tea party and that he still had a soft corner for her.
'Why else would he come all the way to the tea party if he did not like me?' She scowled at her uncle and everyone else who thought otherwise.
"But, Jeanie baby… If you need my help to teach those Zheng sisters a lesson then you only have to say the word." Uncle offered with a generous heart.
Those wicked women had dared to raise their hands and voices against his niece and deserved to be punished.
"There's no need for that…" Jeanette declined his kind offer without any hesitation.
"After all, we are using them as our puppets to destroy Lina Yang once and for all." She smirked as the very thought of that happening was exhilarating for her.
