Natthaphol Phinit, 26, said the home was owned by his boss, and the four residents all pitched in to take care of the household, according to the Bangkok Post.
The boy was reportedly staying at the home, where his friend and suspected murderer, also 14, lived with his mother.
The 14-year-old boy stabbed the teen in the chest for refusing his request to clean something in the kitchen, Natthaphol said.
