Chương 18: Chapter 18

Betrayed by Blood~

I knelt down, scrubbing the floors as hard as I could when I saw a pair of shoes stop right in front of me. I slowly looked up to see the head maid in front of me, glaring hard, her arms crossed over her chest. "Can I help you?" I asked politely, not missing the scowl on her face.

"Why are you here? Didn't you check your chores for today?" She snapped at me. I straightened up, my eyebrows furrowing at her words. I had checked my chores for today, and washing the bathroom was included in it.

"I did; this is my chore for today," I replied, and she got even redder.

"Are you illiterate? You have kitchen duties today. Leave here this instant and go where you're actually needed," she snarled at me.

"Martha, I don't think…"

She stepped forward, her eyebrows cocked up. "What did you say?" She gritted out. I sighed internally and nodded.
