Capítulo 113: A Laundry Maid

Kade never returned to his estate. Ten days went by and Lina was all alone. 

The maidservants were rude to her. They paid her little to no attention and would even whisper about the Princess right behind her back but fully within her hearing. Lina didn't want to go anywhere, but the estate. 

Everywhere Lina went, she knew people were talking about her. 

"Ow…" Lina hissed in pain, feeling her hair being yanked back.

Lina saw strands of her hair had been pulled from the comb. She bit down on her tongue and said nothing. 

Then, Lina flinched when her hand touched water that nearly burnt her finger. She endured the painful trimming of her nails. She jumped, watching blood seep from her tips.

"My apologies," the maidservant said in a snarky voice. "Some little girls don't have this kind of luxury."

The maidservant didn't even use a proper address—not that Lina cared.
