**after one year**
In Hudson mansion…
Michael was sitting in the living room all alone waiting for his breakfast when he yelled at one of the maids,“ go and bring me breakfast. It's already 9am and breakfast is not served yet. You didn't even make me tea."
The maid looked down at the floor and said fearfully“ sir, breakfast is not ready yet. It will be ready soon."
Michael stood up and threw the newspaper on the table and shouted, “no need for that now, just throw the damn cook out of this mansion. In this whole year, we have changed at least 20 cooks. Still, they have no timings nor taste in their food".
The maid nodded, and Michael left the mansion, thinking about the sapphire sadly. Nothing was the same for them from the last one year. Michael was not getting anything on time. He almost misses his breakfast now and then. Natasha doesn't care enough to wake up early and make him something. No one was happy in the mansion except Natasha. Granny misses her a lot. Her health started affecting. She is not having proper care. Emily was not getting her morning coffee like always. Rowan always shouts whenever he can’t find anything on time. He was moody. He was the most affected one, but never let them see it.
The maid came inside the kitchen and the head maid Catherine handed a check to the chef, asking him to leave the mansion. The chef got irritated and curse them.
Chef: how can they do this to me? I left my job at five start hotel to cook for them, and they are throwing me out.
Catherine : it's better to leave on your own rather than by your collar.
The chef grits his teeth but left the mansion, not before cursing them. Catherine leaned against the wall and said,“ how many cooks will they change now? "
Maid : until they find someone who will cook for them like madam.
There was anew maid in the mansion who recently joined, she asked“ so the witch knows how to cook?" she asked curious now.
All the maids laughed at her blunt question while Catherine softly slapped her head and warned“ watch your language. If they hear you, then you are gone."
New maid : but it's so shocking, YAR, that she even knows how to make food.
Maid : no. She doesn't anything. I am talking about madam.
New maid : not about Natasha, mam?
Catherine : no, my doll. Sapphire madam.
New maid : who is she?
Catherine : who is she not, WHO was she? She was a beautiful and innocent girl. Who knows how to cook? How to treat people? If you ever taste her handmade good, then you will forget about every other cook.
She praised sapphire, who was still in her heart. She loves her like a daughter.
Other maid excitedly : she was so beautiful. She has long, beautiful, thick hair. She was a small one. Her height was so cute. She was not like Emily and Natasha's mam. She was so helpful. Furthermore, she always helped us. Likewise, she always woke up early before all of us. Not only that, but she was just wonderful. Likewise, she was always there to help others. Not only that, but she always did her chores perfectly. In other words, she was our lifesaver. She always saves us from others, mostly our master.
New maid : who was she?
Catherine : Rowan's wife.
New maid : this ruthless, arrogant man was married?
Catherine : he is rude and short temper, but he never disrespects anyone. He never misbehaves with us. He is also a good YAR. We hope that sapphire returns.
New maid : how was she, you know, like him?
Catherine : no, she was a sweetheart. She always calm his temper. He always wanted her attention, whether he liked it or not.
New maid : did she leave him because of his behavior? I mean short temper?
Catherine : no, she was never afraid of his anger. They misbehaved with her countless times, still she was here. She was so soft, so fragile. I think they throw her out of the mansion.
All the maids sighed sadly and hopefully prayed for her to return here to make this mansion a home again…

In Canada…
In a small one-story apartment a boy is yelling for his clothes“ sis where are my clothes? I couldn’t find them". He was looking here and there in the room as he will be late for school. He was in boarding until now but as his sister is here then he is also back for sometimes.
“In the cupboard my dear brother” replied a sweet voice.
He opened his closet and found his clothes neatly ironed and hanged. He smiled and shouted,“ I love you, my angel".
Furthermore, he wore his clothes and took his comb to style his hair, but he couldn't do that properly. So, he again came out of the room and entered a small kitchen which was not luxurious but enough for them“ please my angel do my hair also, I can’t do that". His angel was busy in making breakfast as both are getting late. She turns and looks at him.
He looked at his sister with teeth on display and forward the comb. She placed her hands on either side of her waist, and asked,“ why can't you learn to do it properly? How did you manage all this in your boarding school? "
“ It was always my friend, an angel. Now that you are here, my dear sister SAPPHIRE you will do it Na, come on can't you do that for your little brother" he said cutely and was looking at her with innocent eyes.
Sapphire slapped his head playfully after styling his hair and said, “come on now do your breakfast quickly otherwise we both will be late for our respective works.”
The boy came out of the small yet beautiful house towards his school bus and bid bye to his sister. He was happy that he got such a beautiful and kind sister. Some people are just too selfish to take care of others. His friends always complain about how their family ignored them sometimes for their business, but here is his sister always takes care of him along with her work.
Sapphire smiled at him and said,“ take care, Nathan"
Sapphire got ready for her office and took a bus towards her workplace. After coming from Hudson mansion, she tried to find a job for herself, and she found one which was enough for her. She was not educated much, but her ideas and passion towards her work got her a remarkable position in her company. Her boss was amazed at her dedication. First he was not ready to accept her now he is not ready to leave her. She is just outstanding in everything she does. She is perfect.
Furthermore, she entered her work place, it was a fine company, as soon as she entered, her friend circled her and said“ you came, please go inside the meeting room and do everything properly. Twinkle has made mistakes," begged her other male friend. He was looking at her with puppy eyes and was folding his hands in front of her, like pleading to her.
Twinkle came and hugged her tightly and said, “please help us sap, please my friend”.
