Paula flicked a glance at Philip. Amused by his timid and obedient display, she could not help her sarcasm. “You have such a good son-in-law. Although he’s not promising, he’s good at doing housework. You can be relaxed because of that.”

Martha was angry when she heard this and promptly cursed. “He’s nothing but a useless piece of trash. So what if he can do the housework? If he’s half as good as Frank, I won’t have to suffer so much and live in this old manor with Charles.”

Paula’s eyes narrowed with a smile. When she saw Philip walking over with the tea, she deliberately loosened her hold on the cup, making hot water spill all over Philip’s hands.
