Chloe checked the time on her phone again—for what felt like the fifth time that evening.
“Sir Liam will soon be back,” Clara said reassuringly as she handed her a glass of juice to calm her growing anxiety. “Sometimes he comes back after midnight. On more fortunate days, after dinner time. But the night is still young. I suggest you relax a little by watching a movie.”
Chloe smiled warmly at the maid’s kind gesture. She didn’t know what she had done in her past life to deserve someone as thoughtful as Clara.
Normally, any other maid might have chosen to ignore her, treat her like trash, or worse, after seeing how Liam treated her. But Clara wasn’t like that. Or perhaps she was simply masking her true self behind those innocent, gentle manners.
Nevertheless, she was kind for now.
