Kapitel 42: My Husband's Mistress

Ophelia didn't want to see Lady Mirabelle. Which wife wants to meet the mistress? Ophelia swallowed down her protest, for it was improper of her. If Killorn wanted her to have breakfast with Lady Mirabelle, then it should be done… right? 

Ophelia began to convince herself that maybe it was good to meet the mistress early on and establish rules? Yeah, rules would be good… But then, Ophelia changed her mind. She suddenly realized she had no grounds of control over Lady Mirabelle. The mistress must've been by Killorn's side for long, what if Mirabelle was the one creating the rules?

"U-uhm, what if I don't go?" Ophelia mumbled.

Ophelia hated herself for not being able to control her tongue properly. Had it not been for the trauma, she would've been at least able to utter a sentence correctly.

Ophelia couldn't imagine how the servants felt about her. Would they ever respect such a flawed lady of the house?
