Chapter 137
Undercover Infiltration Duchess
Accompaniment of a Suspicious Couple (6)
âSorry, Madam! Where you got hurt⦠Ouch!â
The maid, who was about to rise in haste, cut her hand on a broken wine glass on the floor and grimaced. A drop of red blood formed on the palm of her hand with a splash of dark red wine.
âYou canât press the wound like that. Show me your hands.â
âOh, no, itâs not. Madam, itâs my faultâ¦. Oh my!â
Ezet lowered her posture and examined the maidâs condition, lifted her injured palm, and tied her handkerchief loosely to avoid touching her injured hand.
âWell, well, Duchess of Jaxenâ¦â
âIf a piece of glass burrows into a wound, itâs a big deal, so get it treated right away. And other maids, please clean up the place.â
âYes, madam.â
When Ezet beckoned, the other maids approached and began wiping the broken glass and spilled wine off the floor. Ezet called in a servant and ordered the hand-injured maid to be sent to the infirmary.
âOh, my God, it fell right in front of the Duchess of Jaxen, and she was so calmâ¦â
âThatâs not like a young lady. If I were her, Iâd make a fuss and step back.â
The great nobleman familiesâ servants also have a rigorous education. If you make even a small mistake, the warning drops immediately, and if you make two mistakes, you will be fired.
So they who are accustomed to sitting gracefully and being served by servants will not understand. Theyâd never expect a maid to fall in front of them and break a wine glass.
But Harriet was not good enough to educate servants. There were not enough people to fire them for making mistakes and hiring new people.
Human employees sometimes forgot or made mistakes, and Grandma and Jet helped each other out every time.
It would be very embarrassing for a noble lady of a prominent family to be invited to this Imperial palace Fortress, but it was not a surprise to Ezet.
The fallen maidâs hands were treated, picked up a broken wine glass, and had other servants clean the floor.
After tidying things up, Ezet glanced at Countess Devon.
âWhat, are you gonna tell me I stepped on it?â
The Countess of Devon cleared her throat, intending to pull out if she was to point her foot at the maid.
The maid went to the infirmary to get her hands treated, and if not, the maid wouldnât dare.
âThe Countess of Devon tripped her over me, and she fell.â
It was impossible to say that.

Rather, it was good that she could use it to counterattack the Duchess of Jaxen, and Countess Devon thought of an excuse to push her inwardly.
But Ezet grinned as if she didnât care about the accident just now, let alone pointing the finger at Countess Devon.
âWe must have been too crowded. If you clink the glass all at once, you might drop it and break it or spill wine, so why donât you raise the glass instead?â
Even though there was an accident in which a maid suddenly fell over and broke a wine glass, the ladies who saw Ezet respond calmly responded with a hoot.
âOkay, letâs do that.â
âI think itâs going to be okay. If these people clink each otherâs glasses, they might spill them again.â
âOh, but Duchess of Jaxen. Are you going to be okay with this?â
âCountess of Devon?â
Countess Devon, who came in between the ladies preparing for a toast standing side by side, looked sorry.
âThe Duchess of Jaxen must have been very embarrassed to pretend otherwise. Seeing as youâve never noticed this at all.â
âWhat?â
âLook at the skirt. That dress is hand-washing, but itâs left with wine marksâ¦â
She sighed, eyeing Ezetâs dress stained with dark red. The ladies standing next to her also glanced at Ezetâs dress and said, âOh, my!â in a minor panic.
The elegant tailored dress worn to emphasize the $4.9 billion diamond necklace was Madame LaPrometâs new product at the price of a castle going back and forth.
Of course, the Duke of Jaxenâs wealth would not be hurt by a dress even if it was broken, but Countess Devon looked envious and was at a loss.
âWhat do we do about this, Duchess of Jaxen? It must have been the first time in a long time since youâve worn this dress, but now that itâs stained like this, you canât wear it anymore.â
Harriet, a relative of the Duchess of Jaxen, was a financially challenged family that could not even run the estate. No matter how much a member of Jaxen Duke, the pet peeve characteristic wouldnât have gone anywhere.
The Duchess of Jaxen said that she could not wear an expensive dress and could not help but criticize the poor person who grew up in poverty.
On the contrary, if she tried to gloss over the situation, saying that it was okay to have a stain on it, it would humiliate her by pointing out that there are no cases where she would not be ashamed even after wearing a stained dress to the party.

But Ezet took a look at the hem of her skirt and naturally put the wine glass on the table.
âItâs okay. Itâs not a big deal.â
âOh, my God, Duchess of Jaxen. No matter how embarrassed you are, I donât care that youâre wearing a stained dress hereâ¦â
He intended to encourage and encourage Jet, saying he was constantly embarrassed and gain the upper hand.
But Ezet wasnât at all embarrassed.
