Chapter 23
Elizabeth’s POV
“Does that mean I can’t eat in your house again?” I questioned Mr Ashley Romeo.
He was still inside his room and has not opened the door to his room.
“There are foods available in the house, I can’t watch you starve to death, but yoghurt , no!” He replied.
“But yoghurt is my favorite and will you open this door and speak to me?” I requested.
“No, you can’t see me anymore.” He replied.
“Cause you are a ghost or what?” I hissed and walked to the kitchen.
All the foods that were available in the kitchen were not my taste. It seems he knows someone that told him the foods I love and the ones I despise.
I walked out of the kitchen and went to lay in my room, those food are not my type.
I was hungry. I would have run away from this house but just like he said; I can neither go to my parent’s house nor afford an hotel.
Meaning that I’m practically stuck here.
I was so angry at myself.
An idea then came to my head: It was to steal from him and go start a life somewhere.
Afterall, he’s rich
I stepped down from my bed and sauntered around the house, I was looking intently at every rooms and wondering where he could keep money
A room was left slightly opened, I twisted the knob and walked in.
There was just a wardrobe, a chair and a desk. It was tiled with gold. It looked beautiful but the room was designed in a simple way and that was what caught my attention.
I began to search the wardrobe and to my surprise, I saw bunch of money.
I arched my brow in shock and looked around, it doesn’t sound like anyone was coming so I packed two bundles and smuggled it inside inside my pocket.
I quickly walked out like nothing happened, I could have packed everything but I do not want to be too greedy plus I can be caught at any moment.
I got to my room and brought the money out, I counted it and it was $17,000
I waa so glad , that’s a huge one now.
I think I can run away with this, I changed into a cloth that can accommodate the money without anyone suspecting and I walked out of the house.
