The Princess and the Paupers

Chapter 337

“Punishment?” Louisa looked down on them with a haughty gaze. “Of course you’re getting punished! If Bella hadn’t restored the surveillance, how badly would you have misunderstood her by now? She wouldn’t have been able to prove her innocence!”

“Sorry, Ms. Bella!” The servants were shaking in their boots and quickly kneeling down. “We’re sorry, madam; we’re sorry, Serena; it’s all our fault.”

It was all because they were so greedy for snacks, and Serena was always chatting with them and entertaining them, so they completely forgot about their duties. “Martha, your job is to take care of Serena. Although you meant well by helping out, you spilled oil. You should’ve called someone else to clean it up. You said you’re old and forgot; I can understand that, given you’ve been looking after Serena for eighteen years. But now look at the mess you’ve made. I’ll dock you a month’s pay. Don’t make the same mistake again.”

“Thank you for your understanding, madam!” Martha, feeling grateful, shot a defiant glance at Arabella, as if to say, “What can you do to me?”

Arabella curled her lips slightly, as if everything was going exactly as she expected.

“As for you lot, you got so carried away with your snacks that you forgot to clean up, causing Serena to fall and nearly causing Arabella to be misunderstood. I’m docking two months‘ pay from all of you!”
