The two maids respectfully bowed as soon as they stepped into the greenhouse. “Master, Madam, Miss.” The maids bowed and greeted each other respectfully.

    Gillian's shoulder straightened, and she nonchalantly stepped into the room despite Phoebe's provocative words. Seeing Phoebe have those same features as that old hag and seeing how provoked Phoebe looked about Gillian getting married to Albrecht, a faint understanding suddenly sprouted in her mind. Gillian finally understood that the reason that old hag kept glaring at Gillian as if Gillian had stolen Emma's precious treasure—if she ever had one in her life—was all because that old hag Emma had a daughter interested in Augustus.

However, he stubbornly looked down and continued crying, making Gillian’s heart ache more on his behalf. Had Gillian known Augustus would react intensely like this, she'd never have rejected him.
