For two weeks Maria Moore trained in martial arts with Edward James guards at first she was clumsy with the moves, it was more or less she was dancing balle. Mrs Bridget who brought her water couldn't help but chuckle but still sheers her up, main while Edward James gets all info regarding to Maria Moore's performance. He knew his men were trying not to work her out but after the first week he instructed them to go hard on her.
"Boss are you sure about this" one of the guards once asked, but Edward James nods. The following days Maria Moore was surprised that the guards were now strict on her and anytime she missed a step she'll be asked to kneel for half an hour, this made her to be more fearless and confident.
After about three months of training she became perfect and even the water fight which the guards were worried about and they tried to put in good words for her to their boss but he refused.
"She will be fine with it" Edward James told them, the two guards who were the best in martial arts wondered if he doesn't love the young madam.
At first when Maria was told she was gonna be under water for an hour she bluntly refused and went back inside her room, to her astonishment she wasn't allowed to eat her dinner as her punishment _at this point she doesn't need a prophet to tell her who's behind it. That night she went back to the pool to train, normally she can last 15 minutes under water but day she managed to last twenty minutes for her first try before she came out the surface for air.
Edward James who was on the phone in his bedroom happened to see her actions. He knew she is gorgeous but seeing her in a swimsuit he lost his mind as he forgot he was on the phone with his grandparents_ the old folks thinking he might have slept off when they didn't hear him reply to them hung up the call.
Maria did five more rounds and she was able to last under water for thirty minutes and she decided to head back inside, Edward saw her coming back and went out of his bedroom.They both came in contact on the stairs, these two seem different now.
While Edward James is dying inside with love for her she was making it difficult for him as she has created the boss and employee strictly relationship.
"Is Ms Moore trying to catch a cold by going to the pool at this hour" Edward James said descending the stairs majestically while Maria Moore just stood there.
"No it's not w_" she was saying
"What ever the reason is Ms Moore but you most know I don't have the luxury to waste in hospitals" Edward James told her.
"I understand Mr Edward" Maria Moore replied, she got the underlined meaning in what he said 'i don't like hospitals so, don't get sick'
