Love Burned, She Rose Unscathed novel Chapter 508

Kathleen stared at the disconnected call, frustration boiling over as she knocked the tray in front of her to the floor.

The freshly made chicken soup spilled over, the porcelain bowl shattering on the ground with a crisp sound.

"Ma'am…" The servants collectively trembled.

"Out! Get out—all of you—" Kathleen pointed towards the door, her usually well-maintained face unusually twisted in anger.

The servants filed out in silence.
