The sickly boss always wants to get close to her

The Duke's face looked ugly, but considering the woman in front of him, he restrained himself from getting angry, "Cinderella was born by a maid in the castle who climbed into my bed."

He smiled disdainfully, "That maid is quite capable. I don't know when she saved Duke Meg. Duke Meg adopted her as his adopted daughter and married her to me."

He looked so arrogant, as if he had suffered a great injustice and the maid was very scheming.

Chu Bainiao sighed. It was really difficult for her to communicate with most men except her senior brother.

"From now on, you are my servant. Whatever I say is what it is. You just need to obey my orders."

The Duke was stunned and said woodenly, "As you command."

Chu Bainiao said: "Tell me the truth about what happened. Why did you ignore Cinderella?"

The Duke said woodenly: "Because I can't accept her mother, and I can't accept her either."

"I was still a viscount at the time. Her mother was a servant in my manor and the savior that Duke Meg had been looking for. She fell in love with me, and I favored her once when I was drunk. Unexpectedly, she got pregnant."

"In order to marry me, she found Duke Meg and was adopted as his daughter. Duke Meg had no children, so he forced me to marry that woman on the pretext of inheriting the dukedom."

"Although I accepted it, I was not satisfied. How could a lowly maid like her be worthy of marrying me? So after we got married, I secretly killed Duke Meg and inherited the dukedom."

"After her mother gave birth to her, I killed her. Fortunately, she gave birth to a daughter, otherwise I would have to kill Cinderella. A child born by a lowly maid is also lowly and is not worthy of being my child at all."

He said these horrifying words expressionlessly, "It's a pity that he later married two or three more women, but none of them got pregnant."

Chu Bainiao sentenced this man to death in her heart.

So, women should not be love-sick. If they choose the wrong man, they will drag down the whole family.

She suppressed the coldness in her eyes and said, "Cinderella is your child after all. She has your blood in her body. Those servants look down on him and bully him."

"Not giving him food and letting him live in the dirtiest and smallest room, does that mean you are actually looking down on me?"

"I just look down on you. If I respected you, even if you didn't like Cinderella, you wouldn't dare to treat her like this because of your bloodline, right?"

She continued slowly, "That butler, who gets the highest salary, yet allows those servants to treat your bloodline like this, does that also mean that he looks down on you?"

"You order him around in public, but behind his back he despises you, right?"

After she finished her provocative words, she stood up and gave instructions, "Everything is normal, don't hang around me, and change Cinderella's room."

The Duke quickly recovered his composure and stood up with an unpleasant look on his face. "Miss Chu, I'm sorry. I suddenly remembered that I have something else to do."

"As for the fruit, I'll have someone deliver it to your room."

Chu Bai Niao curved her lips in satisfaction, "Okay, Your Excellency the Duke."

It was still early for breakfast, so she lifted her skirt and walked into the room.

Unexpectedly, as soon as I opened the door, I would look into the eyes of Cinderella who was holding flowers.

Cinderella, who was wearing a maid's skirt, stammered as she explained, "Chu, Aunt Chu, I, I came in to clean. I knocked on the door just now and no one was there."

He lowered his head, and a lock of brown hair fell onto the fragrant and beautiful flowers.

When he looked up again, those eyes, as clear and bright as a deer's, were filled with a hint of smile.

The early morning sunshine shone on her white apron, making her look three times more beautiful than flowers.

"I picked this in the garden this morning and wanted to bring it to your room to put it in."

Seeing him pursing his beautiful lips and smiling shyly, Chu Bainiao's doubts disappeared.

If he didn't do the cleaning, someone else would have done it. There's no need to think about him like that.

Chu Bai Niao smiled and said, "Did you pick them from the garden? It's such a long journey, you must have worked hard."

Before she could finish her words, Dusula appeared silently behind her. The girl put her arms around Chu Bainiao's neck and locked her in her arms.

She stared at Cinderella with her eyes fixed on her, put her head on her stepmother's shoulder, and asked coquettishly, "Mommy, why is Miss Duke in your room?"

Seeing Dusula hugging her mother and acting coquettishly, Cinderella's eyes dimmed.

She explained dejectedly, "Sister Dusula, I came to Aunt Chu's room to clean and put the flowers I picked from the garden into the vase."

Dusula laughed maliciously, "What about our room? Will the Duke clean it too?"

Chu Bainiao gently patted the arm around her neck and warned, "Dusula."

Dusula stuck out her tongue and hugged her arms instead of loosening her hands. "Mommy, I'm kidding. Why would I let Miss Duke help me and my sister clean the room?"

Cinderella stood there helplessly holding the flowers, with an embarrassed look on her face.

This pitiful look made Chu Bainiao's heart soften.

What a poor kid.

"Good girl, you don't have to clean here. The flowers are beautiful and I like them very much." She walked into her room and gently took the bouquet of flowers from the other person.

"I'll do it myself, good boy. Sit down and rest for a while. You've worked hard picking flowers in the garden."

Cinderella blushed the moment she approached her, and timidly handed the flowers to her, "It's not hard, Aunt Chu."

Dusula walked in with a gloomy face, staring at Cinderella.

I wondered why the Duke's daughter was so good at pretending to be pitiful.

Look at what she has done to her lovely mother.

Dusula smiled and took Cinderella's hand. Cinderella wanted to shake it off, but she couldn't for a moment.

Dusula smiled wryly and said, "Sit down for a while, Cinderella. We'll go have breakfast together later."

He forcefully pulled her away from her mother and dragged her to sit on the other side.

After Chu Bainiao put the flowers into the vase, Anastasia tidied herself up and walked over. When she caught sight of Cinderella, her heart skipped a beat.

I thought to myself, it’s a close call, luckily my sister is there, otherwise this Duke’s daughter would be close to her mother again!

Everyone was up and it was almost time, so a few of them planned to go to the restaurant for dinner.

When talking about going to the restaurant for dinner, Cinderella obviously shrank back and refused, "Aunt Chu, you guys go, I won't go."

He can eat only when he finishes his work.

The beautiful girl had a gloomy look on her face, and he lowered his head. Then he saw a white hand enter his sight, and it took his hand without any explanation.

"Good boy, Aunt Chu is here, go have dinner with her."

Cinderella looked up in shock, her nose felt sore for a moment, and she resisted the urge to rush over, "Thank you, Aunt Chu, you are so kind."

After all, if I pounce on him now.

He will definitely be killed by those two sisters.
