Chapter 2015


    Reba felt flustered, not daring to move in the passenger seat.


    Persephone smiled after speaking, recliningfortably in the back seat and stretchingzily.


    "Oh my, it seems like I''m really drunk now." Sheughed. "I''m starting to feel a bit of a headache.


    Reba..."


    "Yes?" Reba felt extremely uneasy.


    "When we go backter, I won''t have you stay there tonight."


    Reba was startled. "What?"


    Since she arrived in Southeast Aciatic, she had been living and eating together with Persephone as it


    was convenient to take care of her. If Persephone didn''t let her stay there tonight... where would she


    go?


    "Ms. Jacox, you might not know, but Ms. Hamerton has always been like this. When she has a


    headache, she dislikes having anyone around her," the chauffeur said with a smile.


    "I... I won''t be around her!" Reba turned to the backseat. "Ms. Hamerton, I''ll stay in the downstairs


    living room! If you need anything, just call me. I—"


    "Ms. Jacox, when Ms. Hamerton asks you to leave, just leave. Don''t bother her," the driver interrupted.


    "Don''t worry. You won''t be homeless. You can stay at the servants'' quarters of the pce for the night."


    "But—"


    "It''s pretty decent," the driver said. "Of course, it can''tpare to Ms. Hamerton''s ce."


    Reba bit her lip. In the back seat, Persephone''s eyes were closed, her face slightly flushed,


    seemingly asleep. Yet, Reba noticed the faint curl of her lips.


    She took a deep breath. When she arrived in Southeast Aciatic, everyone saw her following


    Persephone, so even the service staff in the pce treated her with respect. What would people say if


    she inexplicably went to stay in the servants'' quarters now?


    The pce was full of people, all astute and perceptive, quick to notice something amiss. How would


    she carry herself then?


    Wealthy people like Persephone enjoyed mocking others, didn''t they? They had money, power, and an


    innate sense of superiority, punishing others for their slight displeasure... Did they know how much


    effort someone as insignificant as her had to put in just to stand beside them?


    With just a few words, they could negate all her efforts!


    "Ms. Jacox, I''ll send Ms. Hamerton back first." The car had already stopped at Persephone''s residence.


    The driver looked at Reba and said, "The butler will bring your luggageter. Just wait here."


    "What... What luggage?"


    "Your luggage! You''re staying in the servants'' quarters tonight. How can you manage without your


    personal items?"


    "You..."

    Reba was appalled. Was this a way to drive her away?


    "Ms. Jacox." After the driver got out, he quietly observed her for a while. "Normally, Ms. Hamerton


    treats people well. She wouldn''t have done this to you if you hadn''t upset her."


    "I didn''t do anything!"


    "Even a mere driver like me can tell she''s upset. Why don''t you have the slightest self-awareness?"


    Reba was furious as she watched Persephone get out of the car, pretending to be drunk. When she


    passed by, she deliberately ignored Reba.
