Chapter 169
"..." — ’Oooooh~ that’s what you meant?... Before answering that to you, Mister... Could you not scare me like that?’
The scare made me remember that time my brothers stole mom’s savings to buy ten boxes of chocolates and blamed me saying I gave it all to a passing Lady that told me she needed money for the hospital bills... I did give her ten bills of an unknown amount... But they used most of it!! I didn’t deserve a month without TV for that! It was a good cause!... Although later I learned she was arrested for scamming people...
But I was a naive ten-year-old!
Hng... Those b*stards... If I get ejected from this body, I’ll go back to my world to get revenge... I’ll pull their legs while they sleep... That will teach them...
"Marianne. I asked you a question."
’Ah. Um, no, Mister. I do not agree...’ — I answered with a sharp shake of my head the instant our eyes met.
Curse my distracted brain!
"... Very well. Although Marianne does already not agree... Daughters of mine, Listen carefully.
The two of you are indeed respectful Ladies. Nonetheless, being a proper Lady does not mean you ought to entertain men.
Remove from your knowledge what your mother told you, Theressa.
Over my dead body... will my daughters lower their value to be mere entertainment of useless men.
If you want to fulfil a Lady’s duty... Protect your dignity with elegance and intelligence. Let the men be the ones to entertain you, my flowers... Because no man who expects a Lady to ’entertain’ them is worthy of your attention."
