Don’t tell me that Arielle is still waiting for Vinson to take the initiative? Essentially, it’s all because Arielle and Vinson
are similar in too many ways and are equally arrogant. That’s why they’re growing further apart from each other.
Hmm… I shall be the one to cause a rift between them then! When that happens, Arielle can’t blame me. She can
only blame herself for being too outstanding. Men are all arrogant and lustful creatures. Her demeanor will only
make any man feel inferior and dare not take a step forward to reach her.
With those thoughts in her head, Penelope felt increasingly thrilled, so much so that she felt elated.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtSo, when Susanne and the rest headed back to their rooms, she sat on the couch in the living room and haughtily
beckoned a housekeeper over.
“Are there no fruits in this house? Go and bring me some fruits right now!”
The housekeeper frowned. “M-Miss, the fruits we bought are all catered to the preferences of the three owners of
this manor. We have none prepared for you. I’m sorry.”
“What?” Penelope’s expression turned grim at once.
She stood up with her hands on her waist. “What do you mean by that? Are you belittling me? I’m Mr. Nightshire’s
woman! Do you want me to throw you out of this house for not being willing to prepare fruits for me?”

The housekeeper’s face fell instantly.
“Only the owners in the manor have the right to fire me. I’m afraid you aren’t qualified to do that?”
As soon as her words fell, a loud smack reverberated through the entire living room.
The housekeeper covered her cheek and stared at Penelope in disbelief as she confronted, “You hit me?”
The latter rolled her eyes. “So what if I did that? Yes, I’ve slapped you! Let me ask you again. Are you going to
prepare some fruits for me? If you don’t go and do that immediately, I’ll ask Mr. Nightshire to throw you out of this
house tomorrow and make sure that you won’t be able to find another job!”
The housekeeper was utterly furious.
She’s a nobody who appeared from nowhere! Yet, she dares to slap me? Mrs. Nightshire has personally chosen me
and offered me this role! I’ve worked here for more than a decade, and technically I’m considered an experienced
housekeeper. Since when have I ever suffered such humiliation?
“You-” Just as the housekeeper walked up to Penelope and wanted to fight back, Geoffrey hurried over to stop her.
He then turned to Penelope and took a deep bow. “I’m sorry for not training my subordinates well. Let me go and
get you some fruits right away. Please lose it for you are such a prestige person.”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmGeoffrey’s words put Penelope on cloud nine.
Thinking that she should not kick a fuss and make Vinson learn about her temper, she raised an eyebrow quizzically
and sat down. “I want strawberries, cherries, and mangoes. The mangoes have to be diced in small cubes so that I
won’t have to make a mess while eating them.”
“Sure, we will do it according to your request.” Geoffrey smiled faintly and pulled the housekeeper with him to the
kitchen.
The indignant housekeeper asked, “Why do we have to listen to that woman? She slapped me! Why did you
apologize to her?”
“Silly woman!” Geoffrey scrunched his brows tightly as he lowered his voice to explain. “We’re only housekeepers in
this house. You have to know your place! Since Mr. Nightshire has brought her back, we have to treat her just like
the lady of the house.”
“Lady of the house?” The housekeeper was really annoyed. “In my opinion, she can’t even hold a candle for Mrs.
Nightshire! Though Mrs. Nightshire is the chairman of Sann Group, she’s extremely respectful to us. Just look at that
woman… Huh, I honestly have no idea why Mr. Nightshire is interested in her!”
