"In the beginning, the young master was in the back garden, who would have thought... who would have thought..." Kristin was so frantic that sweat covered his forehead. "Who would have thought that Third Young Lady suddenly brought a group of people and mercilessly beat the young master..."Luna Sandra was shocked, her eyes seemed to frost over, and she exclaimed, "Emma? What exactly happened!"Kristin stuttered and couldn't get his words out.Luna Sandra's voice turned icy. "He fell for Emma?! Outrageous! Truly outrageous!" Just then, Luna Sandra heard a shattering sound beside her. Felicia had accidentally broken a teacup, and tea splashed everywhere.In an instant, Luna Sandra seemed to grasp something, her voice turning stern. "Everyone except the first young lady, leave the room!"Kristin wanted to say more but was pulled out by the others. Felicia's beautiful face turned pale, shocked by Biểu Ca's defeat. She was at a loss for how to face her mother's interrogation."You are so
Qri spoke softly, "Allow me to explain, esteemed ladies and young mistress. Today, the Third Young Lady led the maids to the garden because she heard from the young mistress that a famous Toucan bird was seen here this afternoon. She intended to catch it and present it to the Senior Madam. Unexpectedly, someone suddenly emerged as she attempted to capture the Toucan. This caused not only a disturbance among the birds but also—"Lyly interrupted loudly, "What do you mean 'unexpectedly'? That was my Second Older Brother!"Inside Qri's heart, she felt uneasy. She looked at Emma's unchanged expression and calmed herself: "Dear young mistress, this is what the maids witnessed. It's not just me saying it."Lyly's face immediately turned furious, and she swung her hand fiercely toward Qri's face. Emma swiftly moved, taking hold of Lyly's wrist. Lyly had intended to put on a display of her own but was taken aback when her wrist was suddenly halted in mid-air by Emma's firm grip. She couldn't
Both Luna Melody and Lyly became anxious upon realizing this. Luna Melody even suspected that Emma had attacked her child. However, she couldn't believe a note like this was involved. She wasn't a fool; she immediately understood. Felicia's mother intended to manipulate her into handling a private matter for her. Luna Melody felt it wasn't appropriate to toy with her daughter in such a manner. Her expression turned grim, and her icy gaze assessed the situation before her.Hearing a growl, everyone turned to see Luna Sandra's extremely displeased expression. "Stop with the nonsense!"Emma's expression remained unchanged as she spoke, "Mother, each wet nurse here can testify. Everyone witnessed it with their own eyes. This paper was found on cousin Ethan's person."Luna Sandra's stern gaze scanned the people, and she asked, "Who among you saw it?"No one dared to meet her terrifying gaze. Luna Sandra pointed casually at a wet nurse and said coldly, "Did you see?"The wet nurse's eyes da
Emma was deeply moved. She had persevered for this long merely for her father to understand that Felicia, his most cherished daughter, was behind this scheme. Only now did she realize how skewed her father's affection was? She never expected that in this critical moment, only this young boy would step forward to help her.At that time, everyone was distant, and no one knew whether Draco was present. The obedient young master of the third palace suddenly appeared as a witness, claiming that Ethan attacked him. Without concrete evidence, who would believe his words? Yet there was one thing—the wound on Draco's forehead...Luna Sandra's complexion turned slightly green, and she said, "Emma, with things as they are, why didn't you speak up from the beginning?"Emma clenched her hands and finally lowered her gaze. She gently said, "Third younger brother was attacked by someone else. He was terrified, so I sent him back first. I only learned about my cousin's identity recently. I feared it
He walked forward, and everything around him instantly darkened and vanished.Emma's eyes widened as she looked at the approaching figure. He walked towards her with deliberate, graceful steps, exuding an air of elegance and nobility. In a heartbeat, her breathing felt like it had been caught in her throat.His face had distinct angles, his features were refined, and his dark eyes held a combination of seriousness and coldness. There was also a deep inner calmness that radiated a brilliance that could captivate one's soul. There was no doubt – this was Alpha Crown Prince Jeffn.Emma's hand slowly clenched under her sleeve. She suddenly heard Luna Sandra's cheerful voice in her mind: "Emma, you're smart and obedient, always attentive from a young age. Naturally, your mother and I must choose a good fiancé for you. Alpha Crown Prince Jeffn is a heroic young man with extraordinary intelligence. Standing by his side, you would undoubtedly make a perfect couple. Emma, you'll marry him and
Talking about Emma, Felicia's expression changed: "That little troublemaker! Right now, she's favored by the Lady. The Lady's emotions are quite heavy, showing favoritism toward the Third Palace. She has never been close to our mother and us sisters. Mother will have to let her stay if she deliberately protects that brat."Moreover, the plot didn't succeed and raised suspicions in Father's mind. They couldn't act recklessly.Jadeite pondered momentarily and said, "She's just a village girl with no education or upbringing. Why bother comparing yourself to her?""Big brother, how can you say that? Emma is tormenting me to death! When you return, I can only count on you to help me vent my anger!" Felicia's eyes widened, and the golden phoenix-shaped pendant on her hairpin tinkled softly as if it carried a hidden intention. The sound grew louder, expressing her anger.Jadeite was taken aback and said, "Dealing with a little troublemaker like her is certainly quite easy. Why get so angry a
The little servant girl entered hesitantly and bowed before Emma, saying, "Miss, there's something this servant needs to report."Emma looked calmly, and Qri softly spoke, "Miss, this is the little servant girl Stela from the tea room."A servant girl from the tea room? Emma felt suspicious, but her expression remained gentle. "What's the matter?"Stela said, "Earlier, the First Young Master came and mentioned that he dropped a fan near the grass. He then requested the help of some maids under Miss's command to search for it. Initially, Ori was in the embroidery room, but she volunteered to leave and informed me to come to report this to you."Emma looked at Stela for a moment, then suddenly smiled. "Qri, reward her. In three days, promote her to second-level maid. She doesn't need to return to the tea room. She can stay and serve in the mansion."Stela was overjoyed and quickly gave a deep bow. "Thank you so much, Miss!"A lowly maid was instantly promoted to a second-level position
Emma took a deep breath. She had exhausted all her patience, leaving the other party two chances. But they only thought about seizing opportunities without realizing the predicament of the host! If Ori had a bit of insight, she would know that she couldn't possibly have anything to do with the First Young Master!Much later, Emma remained extraordinarily calm and silent. Qri, unable to bear it, said, "Perhaps Ori was deceived by someone."Emma looked at her and slowly said, "Deceived? She doesn't even reflect that if she's not of use, how could the First Young Master possibly value the servant of his younger sister!" Emotions surged from her heart and a cold expression formed on her face.Luther pondered and cautiously asked, "Miss, what should we do next?"Emma's face gradually calmed down. "Find someone to monitor her closely. Every move she makes must be reported."Luther respectfully replied, "Yes."Qri wiped her tears in secret. Emma saw and sighed softly, "Qri, I know you and Or
