RedNovelChapter 552
---- Sweat trickled down my skin, making my dress cling tolike a second layer.
My legs wobbled, and | leaned against the wooden desk, my breath ragged.
Trying to pull myself together, | had the horrible feeling that this confrontation was only the beginning of the
nightmare awaiting me.
As expected, Lavinia refused to seein her room, demanding | bring back her nanny.
She, of course, also acted out against Freya.
My old nanny had endless patience.
Alifetas a governess had taught her that twas needed.
It was clear | couldnt force things from the start.
The change was too drastic, and | couldnt draw too much attention.
Sighing, | finally headed to Rossellas room, and Freya also left with a maid to settle into hers.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt---- Youre fired!" | screamed, enraged.
She looked at me, her eyes red with fury, holding her cheek where | had hit her with all my strength.
I knew it hurt, but not as much as her words had hurt me.
"How dare you strike me?!" "I dare because | am the Duchess, the owner of everything here, whether you like it
or not!" | shouted, cutting off her complaints.
Thad to remind myself every second who | was now, or else | would drag her out of here by her hair myself.
Tears of rage rolled down her cheeks.
She was on the verge of hittingback.
What are you going to do about it? Tell me!" | stepped forward again, threatening, ready for anything.
"This isnt over! Ill speak to the Duke!" the wretched woman threatened, turning on her heel and slamming the
door behind her as if this were her house.
It was obvious that, despite Rossellas neglect, this woman had been poisoning my daughters mind, making
herself indispensable to her, turning her against Rossella.
That was where her confidence cfromthe belief that she was irreplaceable.
My whole body trembled, my inner madness wanting to burst out.
Tlowered my head, the pain pounding in my skull, clutching it with my pale, cold hands.
---- "You think its appropriate to tell a ten-year-old girl she can lure aman under her skirt?" | asked through
clenched teeth.
Her relaxed attitude was seriously pissingoff.
She didnt even look nervous or remorseful.
| wanted to ask who this Theodore was, but I didnt want to give myself away.
Id find out later.
"T already told you, she was just curious, as any girl her age would be.
| was only giving her advice on how to be likable and not grow up to be an arrogant, despised Duchess," she
said, lookingstraight in the eye, making no effort to hide.
| realized there was no respect for my sister in this household.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm"Who the hell do you think you are to give MY DAUGHTER advice on how to please men?" My voice rose, fury
coursing through me.
"Tm the one who held her in my arms since she was a baby, who gave her the motherly love you never did," she
retorted defiantly, even stepping closer.
"Its better she learns how to truly win a mans heart rather than resorting to tricks like getting pregnant and then
abandoning the child like trash..." SLAP! My hand moved on its own, striking her face hard.
How dare this insolent woman say | abandoned my daughter?! [knew she was talking about Rossella, but |
wouldnt let her get away with it either! "You are leaving this estate! You will never be Lavinias nanny again!
