At 8:30 in the morning at the Valerius Estate, a bleary-eyed Liam Valerius walked in with a look of annoyance on his face, running right into a maid cleaning the entryway.
Seeing Liam Valerius enter, the maid immediately stopped her work. She stood up, faced him, and gave him a polite and respectful nod. "Master Liam, good morning."
"Good? What's so good about it! Get out of my sight!" Liam Valerius snapped at the innocent maid, venting his frustration.
The maid looked utterly wronged by Liam's inexplicable outburst, but she didn't dare say a word. After all, the salary and benefits of working for the Valerius family were excellent—much higher than those of the white-collar workers who slaved away day in and day out. Besides, the daily chores around the vast estate were relatively light.
