I couldn't have a maid riding on my head if I wanted enough power to investigate my father's murder.
I turned to her as I fastened the belt of the dress Anita had brought me earlier to wear as I left the hospital and stepped into a new life.
"Do you have a problem with the duties Lady Bernice has assigned you?" I didn't put myself as the superior immediately, but brought out Lady Bernice since she was the one who had sent them.
Janice tensed for a fraction of a moment before relaxing again.
"Don't try to use Lady Bernice to scare me. You are not my Luna and I won't serve a slave." She said arrogantly expecting me to maybe react violently or something.
But I did none of that. I turned to Lilith and said to her, "Please go back and inform Lady Bernice that I will not be needing Janice as my maid. I am quite satisfied with you alone."
