Love is blind

Chapter one: sold!

3rd person

Hubert came from a poor family of farmer, his parents weren't the best people. Greedy, selfish and entitled,
So naturally when they heard that the richest family in town is looking for a servant for their son, sir Billiam the third they would sell Hubert to them.

"It's a deal!" A man around his 40s in worn out clothes said as he reached out to shake the other's hand

"Great doing business with you, have him prepared and in uniform by 8 tomorrow, I'll send a servant to pick him up" the man dressed in formal clothing said as he walked away leaving a bag of gold coins behind on the table, wiping away the dirt from shake the poor man's hand.

Time skip

"Hubert! Pack your bags" the man said as he entered the house with the gold

"Why father?" Hubert said looking up from sweeping the floor

"You are now Sir Billiam's  personal Butler,"

"Did you get the gold?" A woman said as she came in through the back door

"You just sold me?" Hubert said as tears started to build up

"Oh hush, I think it's time you start proving for this family, besides your getting paid to work for them!" The man said dismissing him

"Now go pack you bags, you'll be leaving at 8 the next morning."

The next morning
Hubert

I can't believe that they just sold me! Now I'm truly done for! I heard that Sir Billiam hated poor people and will go out of his way to make their lives hell.

I sat down on my old bed and waited for father to call me, he had me change into a black suit with a tie, I packed what mattered to me the most, a few changes of clothes, pictures, and a plushie from my sister before she passed away

"Hubert, get up! You leaving in five minutes!" I heard mother knocking on my door

"Coming..."

I sat up grabbing my bag as I walked out of the door to see a well dressed man

"Greetings Hubert, I am the head staff of the mansion you'll be working at" he said as he offered his gloved hand to me

"Hello..."

"Ah you can call me David"

"Hello David" I said as I shook his gloved hand with my own

"Shall we get going? Young master isn't patient"

"Yes of course!" I said as I followed him to the mansion

The walk to the mansion was awfully silent except for David explaining the rules of the mansion as we walk

"We are not allowed to go into young master's bedroom with out permission," I nodded as he continued

"We get meals twice a day unless you are being punished."

Twice a day?! That more then my daily intake of food!

"We are required to obey every word the masters tell us to" that shouldn't be too hard... right?

"Since you are the young masters personal butler he will have to decide the rest of the rules for you, but those are the ground rules." I nodded.

Up ahead I can see the mansion in the tree lines, it was huge

"You will need to follow the master around, curfew is 10pm your room will be shown to you by the young master home self, enjoy the rest of you day" with that David left to attend to his own duties.

"Who are you?!"
