However, in Bella's opinion, Donald was just a butler here. To put it bluntly, he was just a servant of a higher rank. She didn't think it was a big deal even though she had offended him.
Little did she know that Donald was more than a butler in this castle.
He was also Felix's only family, and even... saver.
Therefore, Donald had a high status both in the castle and in Felix's heart.
She didn't know what a difficult time she would have after she offended Donald.
But Donald was well-educated after all.
Even though he hated Bella, he forced a smile and politely asked her, "Miss Collins, what can I do for you?"
Bella was a little embarrassed.
After all, she had just been rude to him. It was embarrassing that she wanted him to do her a favor.
But she had no other choice.
She was determined to succeed before she went to see Felix so she burned the bridge.
In her opinion, Donald was nothing as long as she impressed Felix and became his woman.
She could treat him as she pleased.
Therefore, she was rude to him before.
However, Felix wasn't impressed by her and she ended up running out crying.
She no longer dared to offend any of the servants in the castle, let alone Donald.
At this moment, she could only smile at him, "Donald, I'm sorry I was rude before. I didn't mean it. I hope you weren't offended by that."
After that, she looked seriously at his face.
Donald was no ordinary man.
He was a properly trained professional butler and wearing a poker face at work was like lesson one.
Bella stared at him for a long time, but she couldn't tell if he was angry or not.
He looked at her and said lightly, "Miss Collins, you're a guest and I'm a butler. How would I be angry with you? I just work for Mr. Bissel and abide by the rules he established. Since Mr. Bissel didn't say anything, I don't have any problem with it."
Bella was relieved to hear that.
Then she gave an ingratiating smile, "I see. By the way, a maid named Katy just told me you asked her to take care of me. Is that true?"
Donald answered lightly, "Yes."
Bella felt hopeful again and asked, "May I ask who gave the order, you or Mr. Bissel?"
Donald smiled.
"Mr. Bissel is the owner of the castle and pays all the servants. It was him, of course."
Bella's face lit up.
She blurted out, "So he won't send me away?"
Donald looked at the ecstatic look on her face with mixed feelings.
She was too young and innocent.
She just wanted to take advantage of others and didn't know that she would pay the price.
To put it bluntly, she deserved it.
But Donald just said lightly, "Miss Collins, Mr. Bissel won't send you away if you don't want to leave."
He looked at his watch and said, "Excuse me, Miss Collins, I gotta go. Mr. Bissel is waiting for me."
Bella didn't dare to make him late and nodded.
