I Am Your Master
So, are these all the things she has done in the past three years? Maverick was left speechless
instantly
He knew that Frida was rather mean towards Gwendolyn. Could it be that Frida had deliberately
dismissed the villa’s housekeepers in the past and left all the household chores to Gwendolyn alone?
At that time, every time Maverick came home from work, he could see that the house was clean and
tidy, with steaming hot meals prepared, but he never paid attention to the details.
Due to his repulsion of Declan’s insistence on him marrying Gwendolyn, he would always choose to
ignore her presence subconsciously. Moreover, he would even make a few sarcastic remarks at her
whenever he was in a bad mood…
Gwendolyn noticed that Maverick was in a daze, so she waved her hand in front of his eyes before she
continued, “However, you should be mentally prepared for it. With one year offsetting to three, the tasks
you’ll need to accomplish will also double.”
Maverick shook his head and let out a cold laugh. She is adamant to give it all back to me.
Gwendolyn walked ahead, not noticing the man’s expression. Then, she remembered something and
said, “Oh, that’s right. I forgot to buy a washing machine, so you have to hand wash and put up the
laundry from now on. Some clothes were made from different materials and needed to be washed
separately, so don’t mix them up.”
Maverick stared at her back and mercilessly exposed her lousy excuse. “Are you the type to do
something like that? I remember when the property was transferred to you, a woman named Joanne
was running around and replacing all the furniture and appliances in the entire house.”
After being exposed, Gwendolyn turned around and gave Maverick a cold stare, not intending to cover
her lies up.
Maverick was right. Gwendolyn had intentionally donated the washing machine to the orphanage.
The children in the orphanage needed the washing machine more than Maverick.
The two of them entered the hall side by side in silence.
Gwendolyn fumbled slightly along the wall and instantly turned on the light. This was an action guided
by her muscle memory.
The living room was brightly lit. The house maintained its original structure, but the furniture and the
matching style were no longer in the black-and-white tones like the past.
Gwendolyn headed straight for the kitchen with Maverick quietly following behind her.
Upon entering the kitchen, she took a thick book out from the cabinet and handed it to Maverick.
“Here’s a cookbook. From now on, you must prepare each meal according to the recipes in this book.
Each meal should consist of one meat dish, one vegetable dish, and one soup. You must make
different dishes every day with no repetition.”
Maverick took the book and roughly flipped through two pages.
Seeing that he did not object, Gwendolyn glanced at the time. It was already half past eight, and she
had not eaten dinner yet.

“Let’s start tonight with your cooking. Let me know when it’s ready. As for the room for your sleeping
arrangements, you can choose any room on the second floor but not the third floor.”
After she finished speaking, she went upstairs to her study. There was still a pile of documents from the
office to be read, so she had to work overtime.
Maverick watched her figure disappear from the staircase, and only then did he let out the breath he
had been holding. The pain was so intense that he arched his back, barely managing to steady himself
by leaning on the table.
The bloodstains on the white shirt had long since dried up. The shirt was stuck to the wound and
couldn’t peel off.
After wetting the shirt with hot water, he applied a warm towel to compress it for a few minutes before
carefully separating it from the skin bit by bit.
To avoid being discovered by Gwendolyn, he quickly took off his shirt and washed away the
bloodstains.
If it were before, Maverick would probably wring the clothes until it was almost dry. Nevertheless, due
to the injection today, he had become too tired just after wringing it half dry.
not to leave Since there was no other choice, he could only put on the damp shirt that was just dry
enough. water droplets on the floor and then wore his original dark-colored suit jacket over it. If one did
not look closely, it should not be noticeable.
After doing all of these, he felt as if he had used up all his energy and was too exhausted.
The special drug was indeed effective.
He had not even started cooking dinner, and half an hour had already been wasted. Maverick had no
choice but to grit his teeth and start studying the cookbook.
Opening the refrigerator, he found all kinds of fresh vegetables and meats in their freshest condition.
It was very clear that everything that happened today had been planned by Gwendolyn in advance.
Maverick’s gaze darkened, but it was unclear what he was thinking.
At the study upstairs, Gwendolyn sat in front of the computer with full concentration.
The girl groups talent show she created had already progressed until the third season, and its
popularity and trending topics on the internet remain consistently popular.
As for her friend Jennifer from the orphanage, she seemed to be unaffected since returning to continue
recording for the show after recovering from her injury. She quickly got into the groove and consistently
ranked within the top fifteen. If everything went well, she should be able to make it to the finals without
any issues.
Everything seemed to be moving in a good direction.
After watching the talent show, she called Hannah at the Wright residence.
Hannah said, “I arranged for the two of them to mop the floor tonight, but Sheralyn was making a big
fuss, even cursing at you. I locked them back in the basement. Did I do the right thing?”
Gwendolyn spoke seriously, “No problem. Since they’ve become housekeepers, restrain them by what

required of a housekeeper. If they don’t listen to the instructions, punish them accordingly. However,
there’s one thing you need to take note of: Make sure to discipline the male housekeepers at the
Wright residence well. They must not have any dirty thoughts!”
Hannah replied, “Yes, Ms. Shalders. Please be rest assured, I will definitely handle everything properly
and well.”
Hannah was still incessantly assuring from the other side of the phone. The window remained open,
and Gwendolyn suddenly caught a whiff of a burned smell in the air. It seems like… It’s coming from
downstairs?
She hung up the phone in a panic and dashed downstairs, only to find the kitchen filled with thick, black
smoke.
Maverick tried to fan away the smoke while coughing from inhaling the smoke.
Gwendolyn was speechless. “You are supposed to cook a meal but look what you have done. Are you
trying to burn the house down?”
She covered her nose and mouth as she entered the kitchen. She turned off the stove and switched on
the smoke extractor and ventilation fan.
After quite a while, the suffocating smell finally dissipated just slightly.
She pointed at the charred, coal-like black object in the pan and asked, “What is this supposed to be?”
Maverick honestly answered, “Pork ribs,”
Gwendolyn took another glance. Oh, my. This is such an eyesore!
She asked, “Did you put a catty of barbecue sauce on this? It’s burned too! Not even a cookbook can
save you from cooking anything now. How terrible are your cooking skills?”
Maverick expressed innocently, “I just followed the cookbook. It said to simmer on low heat for an hour
and a half, but I thought that was too slow. So, I figured that using higher heat would be faster. That’s
why…”
Gwendolyn asked, “So, you thought you would not fail by doing that?”
Maverick did not respond. How come it feels like her words are not only about the dish but also seem
to be criticizing me indirectly?
Gwendolyn’s face was sullen, and she sighed before continuing to ask, “Do you really expect me to
have this for dinner?”
Maverick replied, “I have also grilled some vegetables.”
Gwendolyn asked again, “Where’s the dish?”
Maverick led her to the dining table.
Although the grilled vegetables may appear bland, the color looked normal and they appeared to be
cooked, which should be edible.
Gwendolyn sighed. Alright, I’ll just have to make do with this meal.
Chapter 108 I Am Your Master
Seeing that Gwendolyn wanted to have a taste, Maverick helped her pull out a dining chair and went to
the kitchen to get a set of cutleries for her.
Gwendolyn watched his figure strangely as the latter entered and exited the kitchen. Just an hour ago,
he felt humiliated and uncomfortable because he had to do the chores, and now he had adapted to the
job that quickly?
On the other hand, Maverick stood quietly to the side after completing all those tasks, behaving so well
that it was almost unbelievable.
Is he a little too attentive? Gwendolyn felt that his behavior was strange.
ange.
Hence, she picked up a piece of grilled vegetable, but she caught a glimpse of an almost imperceptible
gleam shining in the other’s eyes. Hmm… Something’s definitely not right.
She furrowed her eyebrows almost inaudibly and brought the grilled vegetable to her lips, ready to take
a bite.
The man gently raised his eyebrows, seemingly anticipating something.
However, when Gwendolyn looked over, the other’s face returned to his cold and icy expression.

Gwendolyn put down her fork and playfully curled her lips. She said, “You eat first.”
Maverick lowered his head. “I dare not.”
Although bowing his head, his attitude was not respectful. Gwendolyn thought that Maverick’s behavior
was indeed all just an act.
She smiled slyly, and her sharp gaze swept toward him, leaving no room for discussion in her tone.
“Now, in this villa, I am the master, and you are the servant. Therefore, this is an order. Come here now
and sit. down!”
