As if they were worried that Olivia would not have enough courage, the housekeeper covered her face with her hands, pretending to be crying.
But she glared at a maid standing behind her. The maid took the signal and ran to the young lord's room. She brought Abi and Leo with him.
The housekeeper ran to the kids and kneeled on the ground.
"Oh my! Look at the poor lord. His face looked pale in a single day." as if she could not bear the pain, she hugged the child tightly and cried again.
Many maids went closer and cried loudly. As if they have not lost their master but their own husband, their walls were gut wrenching. Olivia shifted on feet. When the kids started crying with the adults, she closed her eyes and sighed.
She knew that they had won this round.
"Alright, I would go with them." she spoke in a helpless voice only then did the housekeeper let Leo go.
