After that the security of our household tightened especially since both mother and father weren't here, so the full responsibility was in our hands.

"Hah another pile of letters!!!!!" I said as I looked at the letters pilled up in my room.

"This is so tiring...." I said as I opened the letters. "Full of worthless talk." I aid to myself as I looked through them.

"This is from the royal family." I said as I looked at the blue letter with a golden seal in it.

"Hmm, who must have sent it?" I thought as I opened the letter.

"To Lady Winter,

I heard about what happened at your household,

And I really hope that everything will soon go back to normal, my reason of writing you this letter is to let you know that the decorating of the hall has been done. And I would like it if Lady Winter could come over and give us some thought on it.

Yours truthfully

Alan Uziel Stewart "

"Hmm, decoration are done then the one day delivery must have worked, and her majesty birthday is 2 days away. I must quickly go and take a look at the decoration tomorrow." I said to myself.

"But before that I need to attend a tea party held at the Smith residence." I said as I rose up from my seat to get ready for the tea party.

"Now you can start your work." I said to the maid's who were standing behind me.

"Yes my lady!" All of them said.

Hah, another war is about to start.

"Bring that dress here." A maid said. "No No this doesn't suit her something else." Said another.

"Please hurry up." I said as I looked at the time.

"Yes my lady, only final touch is left." Said a maid.

"And now with this hairpiece. Wow our lady looks so pretty!" Said the maid as she clapped her hands.

"Ha ha thanks everyone. But now I need to leave!" I said as I left my room.

"Sister are you leaving." Ash asked.

"Yeah I am, Look after the house when I am gone okay." I said as I patted his head.

"Yes I will!" He said as he smiled.

"Good boy, then I am leaving and yeah father might me returning today." I said as I entered the carriage.

And my journey towards the Smith residence started.

There is something I want to ask her and some other ladies I wonder if they are going to be present there or not.

"Lady Winter welcome!" Molly said as she stood up from her place and came towards me.

"Thank you Lady Smith for inviting me in today's tea party." I said as I bowed.

"No worries, please come and take a seat here." She said as she pointed towards the seat near her.

"Sure!" I said as I smiled. After that I went to the seat where she pointed and seated there.

I didn't realize earlier but I was face to face with Violet and Rose.

Who made them seat together!

I looked at Molly and she wasn't paying attention to anyone except me.

"Irene I heard about what happened at your household. Is everything fine now." She whispered.

"Yes thank you for your concern but now everything is fine." I whispered back.

"Hello Lady Winter!" Violet said with her Angelica smile.

"Hello Lady Carot how have you been." I said as I smiled.

"I have been fine but I heard that your estate has been going through some problem." She said with a worried face.

"Thank you for your concern Lady carot but now everything has been settled down." I said.

"OH right I heard that maid who attacked you used the forbidden magic. Didn't she?" Molly said.

"Yes she did." I said as I looked at my cup of tea.

"It must have been hard for you." Molly said.

"It was a bit but now it's all fine, but there was something I wanted to ask. Do you perhaps know a maid name Lucy." I asked Molly. And her expression changed to disgust.

"Lucy perhaps is she the one who attacked you?" Molly asked.

"Yes it is." I said.

"That maid used to work for our family too but it was like 2 years ago, she was a total phsyco." Molly said with horror in her eyes.

"Did she tried to do something to Lady Smith too." I said.

"No it wasn't that serious to attack me but she was a very weird, she looked at us with disgusting eyes. Talked to herself in nights. We even doubted that maybe she was acquainted with some ghosts or spirits." Molly said as she shivered.

I guess that Lucy was always a horror but she never attacked them so why me?

"Thats why a slave shouldn't be taken in." A lady said.

"Yeah no matter how much you try you can't turn an animal to a human that's the same to slaves, they can never be like normal human." another lady said.

"Yeah I agree with it, slaves should never be taken into a noble household." Said another lady.

This conversation is taking the wrong turn I never meant something like that, I must clear this misunderstanding.

"Lady Winter!" Violet said as she looked at me, her eyes they looked at me angrily.

"Lady carot is something wrong." I asked confused by her sudden action.

"Lady Winter by saying this I might be crossing the line but that maid must have been weird but to say that slaves don't deserve to live a normal life. That's a bit too much." She said with the angry look in her eyes.

"Well that's right it's a little too much." Said a lady.

"Pardon me Lady carot but I think you are having some misunderstanding, I never said that slaves don't have the right to live a normal life. I was just taking with lady Smith about some of my queries." I said as I looked at her.

"Lady winter are you now blaming other ladies for your mistakes." Violet said.

What's wrong with her today?

"Lady Carot Its not like that I am only looking about for that slave Lucy, who not only tied to harm me but also my younger brother. I just want to know if it's her nature or was she was just aiming for me." I said trying my best to keep my calm.

"Lady Winter how long are you going to push the blame to others!" Violet said.

Is she on her right mind?

"Lady Carot please think before you speak!" Rose said as she stood up from her place.

"Lady Willson." I said as she looked at me.

"What do you mean Lady Willson?" Violet asked.

"Because the only one creating a scene here is you, Lady winter clearly said she was just investigating about that maid nothing more nothing less. But you listened to other ladies talk and just brusted at lady winter whom you didn't even gave a chance to explain." Rose said.

Violet sat there without a word, as tears started to fall from her eyes.

"Lady carot please don't cry." I said as I went near her. This isn't right at all, violet and rose the wall between them will grow more like this.

But why would Violet brust out at me like that??

And Rose standing up for me she wasn't like this.

The atmosphere is very tense and I can say that in other ladies eyes I am the villaness.

Who made a slip of tongue, made violet cry and Made rose and violet fight.

Can I ever have a peaceful tea party!!!!!!!
