Evil Duke, Please Be Gentle!-Chapter 523 Green Tea Bitch(Chapter Preview)
Eli knocked again with confusion. She was sure that the door was open when they visited some time ago.
The sound of hurried footsteps came and soon the door was opened from inside by a girl she had seen for the first time.
"My lady!" The maid bowed her head before Eli could open her mouth and ask anything.
Her clothes were looking disheveled and her hair.. Eli frowned as she had never seen a maid with such a bad dress up.
But when she entered, she saw red marks on Ethan's shirt and her eyes narrowed.
"What were you doing after closing the door?" she asked in a cold and direct tone as she glared at him and then at the maid.
She could not believe that they were doing all this in front of her father when he was sick.
"If you have other things to do, you can leave the room. I will be here with my father!" she added when she saw Ethan's face turning red but not a single reply coming out of his mouth.
Her face filled with anger and disgust.
"And you? Who are you? I have never seen you before.`` She was sure that each of their maids had good character and they had never tried to cross the line between the maid and master. ƒ𝘳ee𝔀e𝚋n૦𝐯el.c𝗼𝓂
"I…" Hannah bowed their head further as she stumbled for her words. Her whole body shook as if she was trembling with fear due to the cold and accusing voice of Eli.
"You should not blame, my lord. It is my mistake. I was the one to blame." Hannah spoke through tears in her eyes.
She was looking so afraid that her voice turned incoherent yet she tried to defend Ethan while taking all the blame on herself increasing the frown on the face of Eli.
"Who said that I was blackmailing my brother or even you? I just asked who you are! I have never seen you in the palace before.'' Eli had seen these kinds of tricks all her life.
Another green tea bitch who tried to show that she was an innocent girl. She could see her shoulders trembling a bit but she was sure that the girl was laughing instead of crying by that muffled sound.
She had seen many doing the same in the noble parties. But that was not for Ethan who felt that Eli was bullying Hannah intentionally.
He had felt guilty when he saw the disappointed look in the eyes of Eli but now that she was crossing the line, the feeling of guilt was gone and was replaced by anger.
"Elizabeth! Watch your tone? Why are you bullying a young girl! She is a new maid I have appointed for myself since I never had one in the palace.
And the older staff did not look at me with respect." he defended as he turned to look at hannah who was already red with tears in her eyes.
"Hannah, you do not need to be afraid or ashamed. You have done nothing wrong. But if you are not feeling well, then you can go and have rest.'' His voice was so soft as if he was talking with his lover, not a maid but when he turned to look at Eli, his face hardened and turned cold.
Eli laughed a humorless laugh. She could not believe that she was seeing this kind of drama in her house. The girl was obviously acting yet her foolish brother believed her with cold eyes.
"No master, what are you saying? I am the only one who is serving you. If I leave, you would be alone with his highness. What if something happened and you need me?
I can not leave!" replied the girl as she finally raised her face and looked at him with a tear stricken face and red puffy eyes.
"You are giving yourself too much importance. Do you think we do not have other maids to take care of the young master of the family or the head of the house?
You can leave, I will ask a bunch of other maids to replace you. Since you are looking so hurt by my words." Eli scoffed as she looked at the crocodile tears in her eyes.
Her words and her face were so sweet that she felt like she would vomit looking at the drama when Hannah trembled again and bowed her head.
She looked afraid with Eli and hurt by her cold words and eyes. How could she be replaceable so easily? She had spent days getting her place and making sure that he was curled on her little finger.
If he did not take her side, she was really going to be pissed off as she had used all her energy in taking out these tears.
"Why are you being so disrespectful towards her when all she was doing was apologizing to you Elizabeth when she had not even done anything. ƒ𝔯𝗲𝗲𝙬𝒆𝚋𝐧oѵℯl.𝒄𝑜m
Are you using your false position to bully a commoner when you are one too. Or have you forgotten the reality by living in luxuries so far.
As for your background, I thought that I could relate to them but I was so wrong. You have been spoiled too much by your father.
But do not worry, after him, when I become the head, I will make sure that you will learn humility and discipline." he spoke in a cold voice when he looked at her with a look of pity in his eyes.
As if she was not his sister but another maid who had forgotten her place and was trying to poke her nose in the matter of their masters.
"I only want you to do these kinds of things later or not in front of my father if you could not wait and control your lust. If you think that is wrong then go and do it in public.
And as far as disciplining me, Ethan, you should learn to stand in front of me first!"
