Chapter 3 3

"Then what? How did you answer?" Lisa, the little maid sitting across from Vic, asked excitedly, but she kept her voice down. After all, it was still a taboo topic about the new Master Rudolf.But she soon discovered that there was no need for this at all—in the cafeteria where the servants were, noise was the main theme here, and no one would pay attention to what they were talking about in the corner.

"Then... I'll come to eat." Seeing the disappointed expression of the little maid, Vic grinned and took a bite of the bread in his hand, but V's heart was definitely not indifferent as he showed. Vic will never tell the little maid in front of him what happened afterwards: he was scared and fled, and then let the group of well-trained and vicious hounds chased half of the manor, and finally hid in the stable to escape Fate to be torn apart.Thanks to Webster who took him to the bathroom and lent him a suit of clothes, otherwise he would smell of hound spit and horse manure at this moment - while the damn Master Rudolf was sitting leisurely on the balcony while eating (The tableware in his hand is something that Vic can't afford in his life, the evil rich man!), while enjoying this sideshow-he decided to let this ridiculous thing rot in his stomach.

The little maid on the opposite side was still chattering excitedly, expressing her admiration and admiration for Rudolf to Vic.The dreamy look on her face wasn't some idyllic girlishness, Vic could sense the - crazy - fanatic lurking in it.

God knows how much he dislikes this kind of people. They are blindly immersed in their own world, and others' doubts about them, no matter how slight, will arouse their rage.At that time, they were like grenades pulling strings, blowing themselves and others to pieces with a bang...Stop!

In order not to remind himself of some unpleasant past events, he quickly changed the subject, "Lisa, how long have you been working here?"

This question is very well asked, and it successfully diverted Lisa's attention, "Hum... only a few months, I came here with Master Rudolf." Speaking of this, Lisa proudly puffed out her chest, Although it hasn't started to grow there yet, "I take care of Master Rudolf, which is an honorable job."

"You came here with Master Rudolf? Oh, dear, this is incredible. Can you tell me what's going on?" Vic repeated Lisa's words, looking surprised.In fact, he already knew about this, otherwise he would not have come to talk to her on purpose, this little girl has no scheming, and she was easily hooked.

"Of course, it's no secret. I'm not from England. My hometown is France. Master Rudolf bought me from a human trafficker. He's so kind. I (Vic: cough cough.)... sorry, off topic And then I've been taking care of Master Rudolf. But to be honest, I should be counted as a playmate."

"Playmate? I don't think Master Rudolf looks like... well, he looks very mature." Realizing that there is a fanatic watching from the opposite side, in order to prevent her from pouring hot soup on her head and face, Vic said those harsh words Swallowed it all down, and chose the words carefully.

"Indeed." After confirming that there was no disrespect for the young master she admired in Vic's words, Lisa nodded in satisfaction, "That happened not long ago, and the young master had a conflict with several other cousins ​​who came to play. ——Those young masters really didn't care about the seriousness. Master Rudolf vomited and diarrhea when he came back, and completely refused the approach of others—but it was a blessing in disguise, the young master became much more mature than before. In order to avoid the irritation of Master Rudolf, the master Take him here and live."

"Isn't Master still married?" Vic asked the question that had troubled him for a long time.

"It's a bit complicated to say." Lisa scratched her face in embarrassment, "I still haven't figured out what their relationship is. But what I can tell you is that the young master is not the master's child, he is the master's brother .”

... a group of corrupt (and to some extent enviable) aristocrats who have absolutely no regard for ethics.

Where Lisa couldn't see, Vic unceremoniously rolled his eyes to express his contempt for the group of nobles with chaotic relationships—unfortunately, this behavior was seen by someone who was watching.
