Out of a woman's sensitivity and intuition, Sandra was shocked. She cautiously raised her head and replied, "Yeah. She's my enemy. Wh-what's wrong?" As she spoke, she quietly probed her master's expression.
She thought, 'So he has already seen Tiffany? When did that happen? I clearly pushed her off the cliff. Could it be that... he encountered her at the bottom of the cliff?'
The more Sandra thought about it, the more flustered she became. She then saw her master glance at her and faint smile, "In that case, I'll let you off for now. This won't happen again." With that said, he walked straight into the hole.
The deep hope in the ground was like the mouth of a ferocious beast. The wind blew in slowly.
Sandra curled up on the ground, feeling that all of this was far less terrifying than her master.
Originally, failing the test meant facing a lifetime of confinement in that castle.
But the outcome turned out to be...
She wondered if her master had let her go so readily out of curiosity about the outside world or about Tiffany.

She thought, 'In that case, doesn't that mean I barely managed to keep my life because of Tiffany? How ironic. It's truly ironic!'
Sandra gritted her teeth, feeling an inexplicable chill.
She thought, 'Although this man is cold-blooded, he is the backer I've finally managed to cling to. I absolutely can't let Tiffany appear again. No way!'
She wiped the tears off her face, gritted her teeth, and got up from the ground. She then walked straight ahead through the hole
This passage was extremely deep, but it could lead straight to the outside of Misty Ridge, reaching the vicinity of the castle.

Tiffany sneezed several times along the way.
On the way out of Misty Ridge, with Jeremy leading the way, they avoided quite a bit of trouble and finally returned to the villa where they were staying.
As soon as she got out of the car, Richard carried her all the way back to her room.
The maid had already filled the bathtub with hot water. He immediately placed her in the bathtub.
The moment the hot water hit her, all the pores in her body seemed to open up, and she felt incredibly relaxed.
Tiffany squinted and soaked comfortably in the bathtub.
When she looked up, Richard had not left yet.
His aura remained cold, and his handsome face had an icy expression. A terrifying aura lingered around his body. Judging from his demeanor, it seemed like he was so angry that he would get people to blow up Misty Ridge at any moment. 08. Chapter 260.
Tiffany pulled his hand, and he said, "I'm fine."

She did not dare mention falling into the cold pool from the cliff, but even if she didn't say it, Richard would be able to tell with his keen perception.
She was drenched, clearly having crawled out of a body of water
Moreover, she couldn't swim...
Richard said nothing. He stroked her head and said indifferently "Rest well."
With that said, he turned around and left.
As the door closed, John approached and followed, saying, "Mr. Hampton, we've found out that the castle across the way belongs to the Quaid family. The person in Misty Ridge today was none other than the head of the Quaid family. He sent several maids into Misty Ridge for a for a test, but we can't find out the specific names of the maids for now." There were only a handful of top families in the entire country that held a prominent position. These included the Hampton family from Lovell City, the Ashton family from Traron City, and the Quaid family from Meneva City. There were a few others, but they remained low-key, so much so that they had not been in contact with the outside world for many years. As for the head of the Quaid family, it was rumored that he had always been moody and eccentric. Besides always having a black cat with him, he also enjoyed keeping a group of maids. He was He was a complete freak.
Richard thought, 'From the look of things, it was probably Felix Quaid, the head of the Quaid family, who had an encounter with Tiffany at the bottom of the cliff in Misty Ridge. As for the maid who pushed Tiffany down, even Jeremy could lose her. It must have been Felix himself mself who intervened to save her.'
He raised his eyebrows, coldness radiating from him. "Is he here for that box as well?"
John nodded as he replied, "Yes."
This box was an open secret among all the families.

Richard sneered and said nonchalantly, "Tell him about this. Whichever hand that maid of his used to push Tiffany down... well, that hand will be crippled."
'I can be deemed as showing Felix respect,' he thought. 'This punishment is quite lenient.
John nodded. "Got it."
When this news reached the castle, Felix was leaning against the sofa, gently stroking the black tabby beside him.
In front of him were a dozen trembling maids, including Sandra

She was emotionally unsettled and filled with fear, thinking, 'Didn't he say he would let me off when we were at Misty Ridge? Why is he gathering everyone, now?'
Just as she was filled with fear and unease, she heard Felix ask his cat with a faint smile, "Sweetie, what do you think? Should I cripple her hand? After all, I have to show Mr. Hampton respect. I just didn't expect that young lady to be someone he's protecting. This is even more interesting. Don't you think so?" The black cat could not talk, but it meowed intelligently.
Felix continued, "You think I'm right too? Alright then. I'll cripple one of her hands as a small punishment."
As he spoke to himself, two of his subordinates immediately pressed down on Sandra's shoulders.
She was so frightened that she shouted, "No, don't do it!"

'If I really lose a hand, I can't take revenge in the future,' she thought.
"Mr. Quaid, please save me. I can do things for you. I can be of use to you. I can do anything you want me to do. Please..."
his head. "Well, too bad. You offended someone you shouldn't have."
Felix shook his hea
Sandra was silent for a moment before shouting, "No!"
She shook her head vigorously, looking as if she had suddenly thought of something. She abruptly grabbed his pant leg and shouted, "There's a way. There's a way! After all, they don't know who exactly did it..."
"Oh? What do you mean by that?"
They
don't know that it's me, so even if I really have to be crippled, can you cripple someone else? This way, you can still explain things to Mr. Hampton."
After Sandra spoke, the expressions of the other female servants immediately changed.
They thought, 'What a vicious b****h! To protect herself, she's willing to drag others down? She's truly ruthless and will use any means necessary to achieve her goals.'
Surprised by such a sinister method. Felix burst into laughing. "Interesting. Interesting. This method is indeed not bad. Interesting."
Sandra a knew that she had barely escaped this calamity.
hought, 'I can only be thankful that Tiffany doesn't know my identity and is unaware that I'm actually still alive, having ped using a clever trick and being kept by Felix as a servant. Otherwise, I would definitely not be able to escape this disaster.' Sandra let out a sigh of relief, while the expressions of the other women changed instantly.
They looked at Felix in disbelief. Unexpectedly, he waved, and his subordinates randomly picked one out...
Miserable screams could be heard. The screams sounded incredibly wretched.
Felix carried the cat and walked away. Before leaving, he pinched Sandra's chin and said, "I like your ruthlessness. Don't let me down in the future." Sandra nodded.
She thought, 'I won't be this lucky all the time. I must be fully prepared before making a move next time.'
