Chapter 73
“I admit that I lied when I told you on the phone that I was out shopping with friends. That’s because I know that you don’t like Gordon, so I didn’t want to tell you that I was with him.
“The maids said I wasn’t needed here at the mansion, and that Isabel is the true mistress of the house. They said I had no right to move in here with you and that I would be slandered even more if I continued to stay here!
“I don’t know anyone here except you. It’s an unfamiliar place to me. If I hadn’t called Gordon and asked him to come and get me, who knows how much worse I would’ve been treated?
“They spoke to me like that, but you only believe what they say!
“If i had known this was going to happen, it would’ve been better for me not to move in at all…”
Anderson looked at her tears. In the past, he would’ve wiped her tears away and comforted her.
However, if someone kept saying the same things, no one would continue trusting them.
Anderson’s dark eyes were like black holes, and it was as if he could see right through her. “Mayra, these maids all went through a rigorous training program conducted by the Fishers before they earned the right to enter Barlow mansion. Isa chose them all personally She wouldn’t have made a mistake.”
Mayra wiped her tears away with her hand.
She nodded when she heard what Anderson said about Isabel.
Mayra was destined not to be trusted.

Mayra did not say anything else. She couldn’t be bothered trying to explain.
“Yes. To you, Isabel will always be right. You would rather believe the people around her.”

No matter what Isabel did or said, he always believed that she was right.
Conversely, he thought that Mayra was the one who was unreasonable and full of lies.
Mayra took out a pink wallet and her school ID from her bag. She took out all the money inside, including her bank card, and put it all on the table next to him. She looked at him with her eyes full of tears. “I like Gordon, and I hate you.
“I don’t want you to bother about me in future!”
Mayra turned and ran out of the Barlow mansion.
She had no idea how long she ran for. She only slowed down when she could not run any further.
Tears fell from her eyes, and she could not wipe them away no matter how much she tried.
Isabel!
Isabel!
Isabel was the only one in Anderson’s heart.
Why didn’t he trust Mayra?
In her past life, Anderson had acted as if Isabel’s fall into the pool had all been because of Mayra, even though Mayra hadn’t done anything.
Shane was on the road when he suddenly got a call from Anderson, saying that Mayra had run away yet again.
He wrenched the steering wheel around and began to look for her. He saw her almost at once. She was walking and crying, looking extremely piteous.
“I’ve found her, Mr. Barlow…”
A piercing light shone at her from a distance. Mayra shielded her eyes and squinted…
