When There Is Nothing Left But Love

Seeing no response from him, I was about to say something when the sound of glass shattering came from outside the door.

The noise was then followed by a servant’s apology, “I’m sorry, Mrs. Stovall! Are you all right?”

John ran out of the room immediately upon hearing the commotion and was having a fight with Emma by the time I got to the door.

“You stupid woman! Can’t you even watch where you’re going?”

Emma’s arm had been scalded by the hot tea, and him scolding her like that pushed her to the verge of tears. “What are you yelling at me for? It’s not even my fault, to begin with!”

Despite having a scary frown on his face, John didn’t talk back to her at all. Instead, he simply glared coldly at the terrified servant as he said, “How could you mess up something this simple? You’re fired!”

“Stop it, John. I know you’re mad at me, but you shouldn’t take your anger out on the servants. I’ll just apply some ointment on the burn.” Although furious at how she had been treated, Emma was too kind-hearted to just sit by and watch the poor servant get fired.
