Derrick asked inside the break room, and when he saw that Daphne was alone, he entered the room with a sense of relief.

"Is something wrong? Is that little shit and his f*cking wife throwing another tantrum?"

"No, ...... no, sooner or later you'll have a tantrum, but right now you're still fine."

What do you mean?

Already he makes no attempt to hide his dislike for Manion and Yolanda.

In the past five years, they have grown very ugly.

Manion, who was said to be a prodigy with a gift with the sword, has grown fat and does not train anymore.

Yolanda spoiled her son, and his arrogance became even more insulting.

Daphne and Derrick, the oldest members of the family, had long since grown tired of them.

Karius, the head of the family, had minimal involvement with them.

"Daphne, you know that your husband has a mistress, don't you?"

"Of course. The master doesn't seem to want to hide it."

He nodded at Derrick's question.

Carius had a young lover in town.

Unlike the tantrumming Yolanda, she was calm and collected, somewhat like his late wife Melanie, whom Daphne and the others still adored.

"You had a child, didn't you? And it was a boy, wasn't it?

Yes, he is a boy, almost eight years old. Actually, I'd like to talk to you about that.

"...... I have a bad feeling about this."

Derrick chuckled at Daphne's words.

That means my bad feeling is coming true.

"You know that your husband has been staying at his mistress's house, don't you?"

"Of course. It's making the f*cking wife very unhappy."

Karius found time to visit his mistress.

He is apparently fed up with his irritable wife and his gifted but lazy son, and is now eager to take care of his mistress and the son they have had together.

"As a matter of fact, the mistress has just had her second child."

"...... well."

"The Master would like to officially welcome you into his house as his concubine."

"That's going to make ...... your f*cking wife and your f*cking kids mad."

Yolanda and Manion, who would not tolerate anyone but themselves first, would never recognize their mistress and her child as family.

They would never recognize their mistress and her child as a family. They were like that to Sam, their eldest son by an ex-wife.

I shudder to think what they would do to the mistress and her child.

I wish that were all."

"...... Is there something more?"

"The mistress's son is blessed with a talent for the sword, though not as great as Master Manion's. He seems to be an honest and hardworking boy.

"He looks a lot different from that little shit."

Yes. But it caused one problem.

What is it?

The Master has decided that his son will be the next head of the family.

"--?"

Daphne could not believe her ears.

He had never imagined that their master had such an idea behind their backs.

But although he was surprised, he could not be too opposed to the idea.

"But isn't he better than that little shit?"

"I know we servants are not supposed to say this, but your son seems to be a well-behaved boy compared to Master Manion."

"Then isn't there a problem? This is a family that has a history of removing its eldest son from office. No one will complain if the son of a b*tc* is removed as the next head of the family. In fact, if his mistress's son is a good boy, they will be happy.

Originally a troubled boy, Manion has grown into an untouchable bad boy over the past five years.

It is no longer unusual for him to throw tantrums and to lay hands on servants and townspeople.

At first, some of the boys in his circle were flattering to Manion, the heir to the baronet's throne, but they have fallen out of favor and are now separated.

He has no friends, of course, and no one to tell him what he is doing or saying is wrong.

Manion has grown up accepting only his mother's flattery, without the remonstrations of servants or townspeople, and he has grown to the point of overgrowth.

Nowadays, he often looks at women with a lecherous eye, and he is not happy about it.

Daphne has also been subjected to licking and uncomfortable glances from him on several occasions.

Daphne has not been touched directly because her mother is watching her closely.

It would be bad form for Manion, who is engaged to a fiancée, to touch anyone other than her fiancée.

It may not be unusual for a nobleman to do so, but a minor like Mannion could lose his credibility if he did.

Furthermore, Yolanda is excessively watchful because she is afraid of the consequences if he messes with a servant or a girl in the town and has a child.

In this sense, the women were grateful for Yolanda's presence.

"I'd like you to keep this between us."

"...... Is there anything more?"

"The Master has consulted me, and it seems that he is considering the possibility of receiving his mistress not as a concubine, but as a regular concubine."

"It is."

According to Derrick, it was decided to keep the mistress on the side, although Yolanda, the regular wife, would not agree.

However, Carius would prefer to remove his hysterical wife from the position of the chamberlain and keep his mistress if he could.

He seems to think that if Mannion is to be removed as heir, he would like to make her the mother of his successor.

Daphne is laughing her head off inside.

He can hardly wait for the day when the father and son, who have treated the servants and young Sam so badly, will see the pain in their eyes.

"Isn't that nice? I don't care if the mistress becomes a full-fledged wife, as long as I get to see the downfall of the father and son who mistreated Sam. No, I am not interested in who takes her place, since Melanie is the only wife I have in my heart.

"I understand that Daphne was a friend of yours, Miss Melanie."

"Yes, he was too good a friend for me."

I have a simple feeling that Sam is cute, but because he is my friend's last living relative, I have been loving him as much as my friend who passed away.

Just the thought of such a father and son who mistreated Sam falling from their current position makes me laugh.

"--I hope they will be quickly removed from the succession list and kicked out of the mansion along with their shitty wife."

Daphne laughs as she looks forward to the future that will eventually come.
