The Maid's Daughter Stole My Life,So I Took It All BackChapter 1

The housekeeper's daughter stayed at my place every weekend she had off from school. Out of respect for her mother's years of service, I never said a word about it.

Until the day I came home and found the door code had been changed. A note was taped to the front door:

"Freeloading strays not welcome."

I tore off the note, knocked, and asked the housekeeper when she opened up, "What's going on here?"

Her daughter was sprawled across the couch, legs crossed, not even bothering to look up. "Can't you read? You mooch off my family's house every single day. Have you no shame? If you've got nowhere to stay, go sleep on the street. God, I can't stand freeloading strays like you!"

I stared at her, completely baffled. The housekeeper rushed over and whispered to me, "Miss Henson, I'm so sorry. My daughter doesn't know I'm just the housekeeper. She's a bit spoiled, and she doesn't like sharing the house with outsiders."

Then she added, "You have another place out in the suburbs, don't you? From now on, when my daughter's here for the weekend, maybe you could stay out there instead."
