"Where is she?" Dante asked with his unsmiling face and stern voice indicating how unhappy he currently was.
"Follow me," Mary responded while leading Dante to the entrance of the dining room.
As Dante walked through the hallway, he could see that every other maids and butlers weren't presently positioned in their posts.
This bothered him a little, because he knew most of them had head towards the dining room door to serve as spectators to his mother's bouts of depressive episodes.
And he hated this.

Just outside the dining room door of the Duke's mansion, a small group of butlers and maids gathered around as they each took turns in watching how the helpless duchess expresses her anger as an insane person. The screaming and yelling attracted everyone to this very spot.
"She has started again," A maid said.
"How sad. So rich families have problems too. That's too bad, I really thought she was cute compared..." A brown haired Butler said before being abruptly interrupted.
" It seems you want to loose your job after just joining in last week right?" A green haired Butler suggested.
"Just leave the fool alone. Those of us who have been here for almost a decade now are used to how Lord Darik and Lady Deborah verbally abuses their mother. Only those that have been around in this mansion for over a decade knows why this happens almost every year,"
A white haired Butler declared while noticing he was the only one who had been in this mansion for almost a decade among the group of maids and butlers currently gathered.
"But doesn't the Duke has anything to say about this?" The green haired Butler inquired
"Nope. He doesn't care about such things," The white haired Butler bluntly replied.
" Eh? Really? But why would anyone want to be mad at a beauty like her?." The brown haired Butler inquired.
" Eh? Are you blind? What part of her body entice you so much to make you think she is pretty? Is it her over sized melons? In my opinion, she's ugly. Just look at those eyes. Yikes," A jealous maid who arrived around the same time as the brown haired Butler bad-mouthed the duchess in the hope of gaining the butler's attention and gaze. Clearly she had a crush on him.
But Hush!! Don't tell anyone.
"Now that's enough from you two. Everyone I suggest you leave this place at once!!" The white haired Butler proclaimed.
"Eh? Aren't you interested in finding out how she'll react more?" Another new maid joined the conversation.
*******
Upon getting towards the dining room door entrance, Dante saw a group of maids and butlers standing outside the dining room door as they peeked to see what was going on inside. Noticing what they were doing his rage was ignited.
"Lord Dante!" A maid exclaimed in shock.
All the other maids and butlers noticed his presence and they all bowed deeply before him.
"Leave!!" Dante uttered in a rather calm and 'gentle' tone but what the maids and butlers were experiencing were anything but 'gentle'.
Dante had released his
"Have...M...mercy," The white haired Butler implored.
Their eyes were dilated in shock because Lord Dante standing before them, had ordered them to leave but yet he had pressed them down with his domineering aura. It didn't take too long for their face to begin changing color into purple.
All could see their lives flashing before their eyes and there was nothing they could do about it.
Meanwhile, Dante was noticing how each of them were desperately trying to gasp for breath but rather than feeling pity for them, he felt ecstatic seeing them feel helpless. He was happy to witness how they were suffering before him.
He wanted them all gone at that very moment until....
*Clatter* The sound of glass breaking brought Dante out of the sadistic realm he had delve into. He composed his thoughts so that he could face his mother with the most dignified facial appearance he could come up with.
"Mary?" He uttered in a deep husky voice, not devoid of exasperation.
" Y...yes Milord," Mary timidly replied.
" Get these insects out of my sights," He declared with a vivid irritated tone.
"Yes Milord," Mary replied before bringing out a space cube which was used to absorb all physically weakened Butlers and maids.
Now being the only one left, Dante slowly opened the door to meet a beautiful woman around her early forties having her hair disheveled,her white dress torn around its sides and a disoriented make up on her face which formed a black colored tear line that had dried on her face.
The woman who happened to be Suzanne held a stainless jug in hand before throwing and yelling to the person opening the door of the dining room.
"I SAID GET OUT!!!"
********
Meanwhile in the kitchen of the Duke's mansion, a matured looking maid held a space cube in hand before placing it on the floor and in a few seconds later, a group of maids and butlers emerged out of the cube with very few already feeling better while the rest had yet to get over the feeling of staring death in the eye.
"Forgive me Head maid Mary for I was unable to control the group of ...."
*Slaps*
With the white haired Butler being the one in charge of handling the group of butlers and maids around him, he had been unable to do his task right. This lead to-the-out-of-the-blue slapped he received.
"You imbecile. Just count yourself lucky to be alive this very instant."
"I'm sorry. It won't happen again,"
"It better not or else it is your corpse that would be left remaining in this world if such a thing were to happen again,"
"I'll remember that head maid. Forgive my boldness but why do Lord Darik and Lady Deborah chastise Her Grace so openly like that whenever they return back home,"
"*Sighs* I guess to avoid the same thing that happened today happening in another day, I will have to tell you guys the truth." Mary replied in a rather disappointed voice.
"It all started like this,"
The head main uttered to which every other maid and butler hurried up to their feet to grab a pair to stool to sit while listening to her story.
