Paula had a mocking smile on her face after hearing these words.
'Of course, it would be because I was a maid's daughter and was easy to boss around.' She surmised that these were the reasons for being chosen as the Viscount's daughter's maid.
However, her thoughts varied from the answer she received from the now Countess St. Claire.
"First, you were the only one close to my age so you were the obvious option." She explained and without giving her time to retort, she revealed the second reason as well.
"Second, because your mother had asked me to take you as my maid." She uttered without changing the expression on her face.
Paula was blaming her for the decision she had made in the past but what she had done was at the request of her nanny.
She was attached to her nanny and when the lady had asked for a favor, Raylene did not have the heart to refuse her.
Do you agree with Paula's way of thinking? Was life cruel to her or was she looking at life the wrong way?
