Olivia was woken up by Krystal's voice. She muttered, "Ugh, how noisy."
Ethan's voice rang out in her ears. "Shall I cut off her tongue?"
Olivia's sleepiness was instantly gone. Opening her bleary eyes, Olivia said, "You're getting more violent these days."
Ethan gave her a peck on the lips. "Liv, to me, no amount of money can buy your happiness. To me, neither Krystal nor anyone else is as important as your happiness."
With the ruckus Krystal was making, Olivia could only get out of bed. She had no idea what Krystal was making a fuss about either.
After a quick washing up, Olivia left the room. She noticed a huge mess at the entrance of Krystal's room. Krystal was even shouting, "You're all useless trash! You can't even make a proper breakfast for me.
"What sort of maid treats her employer like this?"
Olivia glanced at the food strewn on the floor, then at the young woman whose body was scalded from the hot chowder Krystal had thrown at her. "What happened?"
The maid was new here, so she had never experienced something like this before. Before this, she heard that Krystal was difficult to deal with, and the other cunning maids had shoved the responsibility onto her.
She didn't expect Krystal to behave so oddly.
"Ms. Fordham, Ms. Heath asked for breakfast, but she doesn't like anything that I serve her."
"Why are you looking at her? I'm the real young lady of the Heath family. You bunch of ingrates…"
Olivia patted the young woman on the shoulder. "Go and apply some ointment on your burns. I'll handle things here."
"But…"
"No buts. Just go."
The young woman glanced at Olivia gratefully. But Krystal was incredibly upset when she saw that. "Get off your high horse, Olivia.
"Don't think that you can order me around just because Dad acknowledged you. I'm the real young lady of the Heath family."
The word "real" sounded extra ironic when she said that. Mason hadn't said anything about it, and since Olivia wasn't a talkative person, she didn't expose Krystal.
"No matter what identity you have, you shouldn't insult people at will. The food you threw away without hesitation might be the meal of someone else's dreams."
