Chapter 41
Grace felt annoyed and frowned when she heard that voice. She turned around and saw Avs arrogantly sitting by the swimming pool
Grace took a deep breath. Then, she slowly walked over, asking “Miss Adkins, is there anything I can do for you?
Melvin noticed that Ava was going to boss around Grace. Thus, he hurriedly followed Grace and walked over
Ava raised her chin at Grace and ordered condescendingly, “My servants will deliver my clothes later. Get prepared. You are going to take my baggage to my room and arrange everything”
Before Grace could speak, Melvin took the first step to reply, “I am sorry, Miss Adkins. Grace is injured and is off today. This
is Mr. Brian’s order.”
Ava glared at Melvin and fired back. “Seriously? Is this supposed to be an injury? And now she gets a day off for that? She’s just a maid! Well, she does not seem qualified to be a maid. She better disappear before the embarrasses herself even morel”
Hearing Ava’s harsh words, Melvin could not help but defend Grace, ‘Miss Adkins, trust me Every maid working here has passed the Francis family’s strict screening. Whether Grace is qualified for her job is up to Mr. Brian.”
Grace did not want Melvin to offend Ava because of her. Thus, she stopped Melvin and said, “Melvin, I’ve got this. Please give us some moments”
Ava glared at Melvin and thought, The Francis family’s servant and maid are so rude! Why do they think they can talk to me like that?
After Melvin left, Grace looked at Ava and said, “Miss Adkins, It seems that you have immense hostility toward me.” Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.
“Humph!” Ava disdainfully snorted. Then, she replied, “Yeah. I don’t like you. What about it?”
Grace was confused and asked, “What did I do? Why do you think that way?”
Ava stared at Grace with disgust and shouted, “Humph! Because you have a seductive appearance! Do you think I don’t know that you are planning how to make Brian fall for you?”
Grace smiled and replied coldly. “Miss Adkins, with all due respect, your elder sister is the future Mrs. Francis. However, you look more nervous than your sister. I think it is you who are trying to seduce your sister’s man!”
Ava hated the most when someone mentioned Louise was Brian’s fiancée!
Grace continued, “Miss Adkins, I’ve been with Mr. Brian for some time. Here is my kind reminder. Mr. Brian has no interest in condescending women like you. You should probably learn more from your sister.”
Ava was irrigated and shouted, “What do you mean? Are you saying Louise is better than me? I’m telling you! If I can’t get Brian, so can’t you!”
Grace could not help but burst out laughing when she heard Ava’s words.
Ava immediately realized she revealed her purpose before Grace. She was so annoyed that she bit her lower lip, crying. “What are you laughing at? I’m warning you! Do not say a word before Louise!”

Grace replied, “Oh, no worries. Liking someone is not something embarrassing.” After that, Grace turned around and left.
Ava was so furious that she stomped. She thought, ‘Grace doesn’t act like a regular maid. She talks and behaves as if she’s one of the Francis family. How can Louise tolerate with her?”
Brian had not seen Grace since he went home after work. Instead, Ava kept talking in the living. She successfully annoyed. Brian and gave him a headache. Thus, Brian went upstairs to his room.
Grace did not show up when dinner time approached.
Brian sat at the table, lost in thought. He did not even realize when Louise served his favorite dish onto his plate.
Louise kept observing Brian’s expression. Noticing Brian was a bit off to her, Louise asked, “Brian, are you okay?”
Brian lowered his head and glanced at the food on his plate. He frowned and suddenly ordered Melvin, “Ask Grace to be here right now.”
Melvin replied, “Mr. Brian. Grace is having a rest. What do you need from her?”
