No wonder Tillie, despite being a servant, seemed so lofty. Loraine found it amusing. So what if Ariadna was a
Cruz? Did that imply everyone should shower her with extra attention?
Yet, Tillie continued to posture arrogantly, her pride evident.
Clearly, that's exactly what Tillie thought.

Not knowing exactly what had happened, Marco only knew of Tillie’s disrespect for Loraine. He stepped forward
to defend Loraine, his face stern. “Is a noble family’s prestige all that impressive? The age of nobility is Long
