"Do it quickly! Maud has already gone out shopping for Dad's birthday party. Thus, she can't be relied on to do the house choirs." Claire sneered. She had deliberately sent their maid Maud on errands early in the morning to make sure that Leena would make mistakes and shame herself.
"Alright. I see. Please get out so that I can change," said Leena. She was not accustomed to changing her clothes before anyone, let alone Claire. Although models in those fashion shows could get changed at the backstage with the presence of other staff, Leena couldn't allow herself to do that.
"Don't be a fool. I won't stare at you." Claire gave Leena a condescending glance, raised her chin proudly and walked out. She was deliberately treating Leena as a maid rather than Kevin's wife.
Leena bit her lips and swallowed her anger. Frustration was beginning to be a constant scenario for her whenever she was dealing with Claire. The woman was obviously belittling her in any possible way!
To tell the truth, Leena could cook a decent breakfast for the family. It was just that she had no idea what Kevin's family liked for breakfast. Standing at the kitchen, Leena looked troubled and didn't know what to do.
"What's wrong with you? What're you waiting for? I'm starving. I need to eat my breakfast as soon as possible." Claire came inside the kitchen, sat down on a stool and seemed to have made up her mind to supervise Leena.
"Claire, can you tell me what you guys want to eat for your breakfast?" asked Leena humbly. Although she knew Claire might refuse to give her an answer, she had to try finding out what the family preferred when it came to foods.
"Will you do whatever I tell you?" Claire's mind was set to put Leena in an awkward situation. She stared at Leena cunningly and decided to make fun of her while everyone else wasn't around.
