When the female servants heard Chief Valencia's offer to Leon, they unwittingly trembled and lowered their heads.
Leon could not see their expression, but he could tell they were feeling anxiety, fear, and apprehension. Perhaps there was also a little bit of anticipation mixed within.
It might have just been his imagination, but there seemed to have been some disappointment from some of them when he rejected the tribal chief's offer.
Nevertheless, Leon was unsettled by Chief Valencia's offer. Although the tribal chief was trying to do him a favor, the treatment was unfair to the female servants.
To win him over, Chief Valencia did not hesitate to use the people she should be protecting. It was all a matter of when they are useful or not.
Noticing Leon's unsettled expression, Chief Valencia asks, "Do you feel that my offer just now is unfair to these girls?"
Leon did not answer. However, he tacitly admitted with a forced smile.
