Erine was stunned.
She turned to look at Selina.
Selina was staring at her with an ice-cold look in her eyes.
It was normal for the employer to criticize the food made by the servants, but Selina had always been kind and polite to them. It was a surprise to hear such words coming out of Selina's mouth.
Erine felt a little dizzy.
Then she said, "Why isn't it tasty, Miss Whitlock? I've tasted it before,"
Every time she cooked soup, she would use a spoon to taste it in advance to see if there was room for improvement.
Selina's expression changed when Erine said this.
Selina stood up and said, "How dare you, a servant, taste the soup made for me! How dare you!"
Erine was confused when Selina interrogated her.
"Miss Whitlock, it's always been like this."
Selina sneered, "It's always been like this! I think the Perry family is too unruly. They actually hired such a useless servant. Who taught you to act like this!"
"Miss Whitlock, what's wrong with you?" Erine was confused.
Why did Selina become like this?
Selina's tone became colder, "What's wrong with me? Are you questioning me? Remember your place in the Perry family. You're just a servant. To put it bluntly, you are just a dog!"
Erine's face suddenly turned pale.
Although she was a servant, Matthew had always been kind to her and she had never been humiliated like this.
Erine's eyes turned red.
Just then, a figure walked over.
Matthew was back.
He didn't hear the conversation between Selina and Erine, but he could sense the tension in the living room.
Then, Matthew's gaze fell on the broken bowl on the cashmere carpet.
He frowned. "What happened?"
Erine remained silent with a face full of grievances.
Selina glanced at Matthew. "What happened?
What do you think?"
Matthew's tone was clear. "Did you break the bowl by accident? I'll have someone clean it up. What's there to be unhappy about?"
Selina replied coldly, "Where did you find this servant, Matthew? She doesn't know how to read or follow the rules. Even the soup she made is horrible!"
Matthew held his breath.
He looked at Selina as if she was a stranger.
However, soon he came to his senses.
His voice softened. "Selina, what happened?"
Selina looked at Erine and said, "What happened? Why don't you ask her?"
Erine sniffed.
It was the first time that she had suffered such injustice, but she put on a smile out of consideration of Selina's pregnancy. "Mr. Matthew, it's all my fault. Miss Whitlock didn't like the soup I made. I'll clean up the mess on the floor."
After that, Erine walked over to the cashmere carpet and cleaned the mess.
Matthew squatted down and said, "Erine, I'll do it. You are old and can't see clearly,"
The colour of the cashmere carpet was similar to that of the soup bowl. Matthew was afraid that
Erine couldn't see clearly and cut her hand by accident.
Matthew's words warmed Erine's heart.
Although she had just been wronged, what Matthew had said at this moment made her feel better.
Although it was still early, Matthew accompanied Selina in bed. When he heard shallow breathing coming from beside him, Matthew got up.
Matthew left after putting on a coat.
He went to the servants' accommodation and knocked on the door.
After a while, Erine opened the door.
When she saw Matthew, she became nervous. "Sir, why are you here?"
Matthew said in a clear and apologetic tone, "Erine, you have been wronged tonight,"
"No, it's fine." Erine said immediately.
With Matthew around, how could Erine feel aggrieved?
Instead, Erine spoke on behalf of Selina. "Mr. Matthew, Miss Whitlock may not be her usual self now that she is pregnant. She might be short tempered, so just do things her way."
Matthew smiled and said, "Of course, I will. Thank you for your hard work, Erine,"
"It's nothing," Erine said. "Mr. Matthew, I look forward to taking care of your child."
"Go to bed then, Erine. I won't bother you any longer."
Erine nodded, "You should go to bed early too,"
Matthew was about to leave when he suddenly stopped. "By the way, Erine, your salary will be doubled this month."
Erine's eyes widened. "Sir, my salary is already high enough."
Matthew was generous. As a servant, Erine's salary had already surpassed many company executives' salaries. Now, her salary was about to be doubled...
Matthew smiled and said, "Selina is pregnant now, so you have to work hard. You should get a raise. Have a good rest,"
After that, Matthew left.
Gratitude flashed in Erine's eyes.
As long as Matthew was there, it didn't matter if she was wronged!
