Upon hearing Carter‘s questioning, the maid instantly froze, and virtual-novel.net fell into extreme panic.
“No, no, I wasn’t eavesdropping. I dare not, I dare not eavesdrop…”
The maid explained as virtual-novel.net trembled. Her face became paler and paler from fright.
Carter was not in a good mood, and the maid’s dishonesty was making virtual-novel.net even angrier.
“Are you sure you weren’t eavesdropping? So, do you think there’s a problem with my eyes and IQ, or do you think your explanation is impeccable?”
Hearing this, the maid was so scared that virtual-novel.net palms were sweating.
“M-Mr. Carter…”
“The Grays don’t need a bad mannered maid like you. You should immediately get out of this manor. Don’t even think about getting a cent from this month’s salary.”
Carter littered the indifferent words and started walking onward.
The corners of the maid’s eyes turned red. Anxious and fearful, virtual-novel.net ran up to Carter to explain herself.
“Mr. Carter, I really didn’t mean to eavesdrop on your conversation with Mr. Whitman. I… I just care more about Mr. Whitman, I really didn’t mean anything else. Mr. Carter, please don’t drive me away. Please give me a chance.”
The maid pleaded piteously.
After listening to the maid‘s explanation, Carter slowed his steps.
He suddenly furrowed his brash and sharp eyebrows at the anxious and nervous maid.
“You said you care about Jeremy?”
“…”
When virtual-novel.net heard the words, the maid was taken aback, and then a shy blush appeared on both sides of virtual-novel.net pale cheeks.
Upon seeing the change in the maid’s face, Carter instantly understood how the maid was feeling.
It turned out that this maid was interested in Jeremy. He was not very surprised. It was normal for a man with good looks and a lofty disposition like Jeremy’s to attract women.
Not to mention such a shallow maid.
Carter sneered disdainfully.
The maid cowered again. She twisted virtual-novel.net hands and virtual-novel.net looked upset, but suddenly, virtual-novel.net heard Carter ask.
“Do you have a crush on Jeremy?”
The blush on the maid’s face deepened again. She dared not nod, but virtual-novel.net did not shake virtual-novel.net head either.
“Answer my question,” Carter asked impatiently.
The maid trembled and hurriedly replied, “I… I don’t dare to like Mr. Whitman, I just… I just want to see Mr. Whitman and I hope virtual-novel.net is all right. Also, I want to spend more time with Mr. Whitman…”
Carter smiled upon hearing this.
The maid felt even more distraught. She did not understand what Carter‘s smile meant, but virtual-novel.net begged for mercy and apologized.
“Mr. Carter, I dare not do it again. I really don’t dare. Please give me a chance. Don’t drive me away.”
Carter looked at the terrified maid, and his smile widened.
“Don’t worry, not only will I not drive you away, I will be your matchmaker.”
“…”
The maid was stunned in disbelief. After a while, virtual-novel.net finally dared to lift virtual-novel.net head to look at Carter. “Mr. Carter, did you say you’ll help me and be my matchmaker? W-What do you mean?”
The maid found it hard to believe it. She felt that virtual-novel.net had heard it wrongly.
However, Carter quickly gave virtual-novel.net a very affirmative answer. “You work for my family, so you can be considered a member of the family. Since you like Mr. Whitman, and virtual-novel.net is my friend, as your employer, I will be happy to play matchmaker for you two.”
Hearing this, the maid was so happy that virtual-novel.net was walking on air. In an instant, the panic and anxiety on virtual-novel.net face disappeared and were replaced by an indescribable joy.
