Chapter 6 - Rachel and Lily Move into the Master Wing
Rachel stared at Roman in absolute disbelief, shaking her head slowly against the unimaginable offer.
“I’m just a maid, Mr. Calder. I can’t possibly live in the main wing with you,” she protested nervously.
“You are a mother who protected her child under impossible conditions, and starting today, your safety is my priority,” Roman said.
He signaled Daniel Pike to assist them with their belongings from the small basement quarters.
That evening, Rachel and Lily settled into a spacious, sunlit suite on the third floor of the Calder estate.
For the first time in years, Lily had a comfortable bed, warm blankets, and a window overlooking the pristine gardens.
Rachel sat on the edge of the velvet mattress, holding a warm cup of tea that Roman had personally sent up.
She still felt like she was trapped inside an elaborate dream that could shatter at any second.
A gentle knock echoed against the heavy wooden door of the suite a few minutes later.
