NovelEnglishThe next morning, before Eliza headed to work, Aaron found her. There was no need to guess why-she knew it was about last night's incident in the private room. "Aaron, I'm really sorry about what happened..." She had heard Casper had broken the furniture in the private room the previous night. Today, she was planning to discuss the compensation for the damage with her boss. "No, it'swho should apologize. I didn't expect Casper to bring such men and cause you trouble. That was my oversight." Aaron looked genuinely remorseful. He adjusted his glasses, pushing them up on the bridge of his nose. "Do you needto find you another job?" "No, it's okay." She knew it would be the sanywhere.
"I'll talk to Casper about this." Eliza had no faith in Casper; she just gave a faint smile.

Hope Hospital was the local clinic. Since her mother had been admitted, she had only managed to call a few times and had never found the tto visit.
"My mom's illness...honestly, there's nothing much to say." The medical care available there wasn't top-notch, and her mother staying alive was all Eliza asked for. Aaron nodded. "I'll check on your mom and ask the doctors about her condition." "Thank you." After parting ways with Aaron, Eliza went to work at the lounge. The boss was kind and didn't mention the compensation, only saying that Aaron had taken care of it. What exactly Aaron had taken care of, he didn't specify.
Work went on as usual.
At noon, Eliza left the lounge to head home. Just as she stepped outside, she saw Marian rushing over.
"Ma'am." Eliza was surprised. "Marian, are you here to see me?" Marian looked uncomfortable, pressing her lips together before finally speaking. "Mr. Casper sentto find you..." "For what?" Why would Casper send a servant to find her? Wasn't he good at showing up out of nowhere? "Ma'am, Ms. Nova is sick and craving meatballs you used to make at the Pinotti family's place. Mr. Casper wants you to chand make them for her." Marian knew this was just another way to humiliate Eliza. But she was just a servant, and no matter how much it pained her, she had no choice but to convey the message. After speaking, Marian lowered her head.

"Mr. Casper said he wants you to make them..." Marian hesitated, "...and if you don't, he will..." "He will what?" "He will transfer Robin to another hospital." Transfer? Wasn't sending him to Mercy Hospital enough? Where else could he possibly want to send Robin? Eliza clenched her fists tightly. She closed her eyes for a moment, took a deep breath, and then relented. "Fine, I'll go."
Every tEliza stepped into the house where she had lived for two years, she felt an indescribable O an suffocation. Standing outside, she adjusted her breathing, then followed Marian inside.
From afar, she saw Nova lounging by the sofa. When Nova noticed her, she looked up and sneered. Her nails En were painted in a deep oxblood red.
"Look at you, Mrs. Welton. One word from me, and you crunning back, following my commands. It's true, Casper really spoilsrotten." X
