"Did Audrey tell you to say all that?" Danielle sneered, her voice dripping with sarcasm. "I've got to hand it to
you both. You and your dear Audrey are amazing actresses, especially when it comes to pretending to be all pure
and innocent. You both deserve an award for your performances."
Skylar’'s eyes were filled with tears as she looked up at Danielle. "I'm just a lowly servant, not as noble as you,
but I've worked here at the Darling family for years. How could you slanderlike this?"
"Really?" Danielle raised an eyebrow, her tone growing colder. "You can accuse people, but I'm not allowed to
defend myself, huh?"
"I'm not slandering anyone, Miss Danielle. I'm just telling the truth. You're all good people, and | don’t mind the
injustices I've suffered. But Miss Audrey... she’s been through enough. Please, don’t make her suffer more,"

"No, no, that’s not what | meant..." Skylar stammered, her voice now tinged with regret.
Among all the young men in the family, Joseph's presence was the most intimidating. The servants were always
wary of him, and now, despite her earlier bravado, Skylar looked genuinely afraid.
"What are you trying to say?" Joseph's voice was icy, each word sharp like a blade. "Since when does the Darling
family need to ask a servant for their opinion before making a decision? Or are you tellingyou've suddenly
becmore powerful than your masters?"
"I-1 didn’t mean it like that, young master," Skylar stammered, her voice shaking. "I just... I've seen Miss Audrey
Darling suffering sometimes, and | couldn't stand by and do nothing..."
Slap!
Danielle's eyes flashed coldly. She was done with this performance. Without another word, she slapped Skylar
across the face, the sound sharp and final.
"You... You-" Skylar gasped, her hand flying instinctively to her cheek, too stunned to speak.
Slap!
"You-" Skylar started again, but her voice faltered.
