Duke, Please Stop Because it Hurts

Chapter 35



Chapter 35

Her madame was as delicate as a piece of a well-crafted glass. It can be gorgeous but it can also seem to break at any moment in time.

Glancing upon her madame’s pale-looking face, Lili had decided to inform the kitchen staff to prepare for a nutritious meal.

“I will inform the chef.” (Lili)

Silence fell as soon as Lili walked out the door. It was such a peaceful day apart from Molitia’s sudden shrill that can be deduced as the consequence from suffering under Pillen’s hands.

“Ah…” (Molitia)

“Is it too hot?” (Pillen)

“Oh, it’s a little hot, but… Uh-huh, no. I think this is good enough.” (Molitia)

When Pillen had set a hot towel under her waist, Molitia burrowed her head deeply into the pillow. She felt as if her muscles had loosened due to that small weight being placed over her thin slip.

“Thank you, Pillen. If it wasn’t for every one of you, I would have been stuck in bed for today.” (Molitia)

“Please don’t say that. It is my job to help you feel better.” (Pillen)

She smiled towards Pillen whose eyes were burning with a fighting spirit. It might just be a polite deed as an employee, but it was such a pleasure for Molitia.

Molitia wouldn’t just ignore the deed and let it go. As she was thanked because of her amiability, her gaze gently softened.

“I don’t hold it in my mouth. So, whenever I feel like it, I will say it out loud.” (Molitia)

“Madame…” (Pillen)

Pillen’s mouth got wide-opened upon hearing the words poured out from the gentle madame but she closed it quickly. She had worked in many places before, however this was definitely the first time she had ever encountered someone who expressed her gratitude in this manner.

Molitia was even grateful towards trifles. A person with a high or noble status would usually act with a valid reason. That was why she had been really nervous when applying for the position up till she saw Molitia.

‘I’m lucky to be able to serve such an incredible person.’

As Pillen’s fingertips kept on massaging Molitia’s legs, she gradually sharpened their movements.

“I have brought you a meal.” (Gilbert)

When the door had opened, Molitia’s eyes widened in shock.

“Gilbert?” (Molitia)

As she had naturally thought that it would be Lili, she sprung up hastily at the sudden appearance of the butler. Luckily, her back pain was less severe than before. This might be perhaps, thanks to Pillen’s desperate efforts.

“Are you feeling well?” (Gilbert)

“I feel much better thanks to the maids.” (Molitia)

“That is very good.” (Gilbert)

He placed the dishes on the table one after another. One, two…. Her eyes dilated once again as there were too many dishes set up for breakfast.

“Are all of these my breakfast?” (Molitia)

“Yes, they said that it’s a special morning for you.” (Gilbert)

A serving of a well-cooked lamb drizzled with sauce, a platter of fresh salad and a bowl of soup with generous slices of vegetables. By all means, these dishes were more suitable for dinner rather than breakfast.

As someone who rarely had breakfast back in the Count’s residence due to anemia, Molitia casted a troubling glance.

“The maids who have had additional interviews will be here this afternoon.” (Gilbert)

“Already?” (Molitia)

Her hand stopped scooping out the soup.

“It is as you asked for.” (Gilbert)

He was definitely the duke’s butler. Molitia smiled contently at the swift handling of the matter.

“Please make some arrangements so that the current maids are not uncomfortable. But you shouldn’t leave them alone either.” (Molitia)

“Understood.” (Gilbert)

Having felt relieved after hearing the good news, Molitia’s spoon started moving again. Her emptied glass was refilled continuously by Gilbert, who was really concerned about her health.

Her pair of hands soon had stopped their cluttering. She had already eaten a lot as she thought of his sincerity however, there was just too much food. While she was rolling her eyes silently, she discreetly changed her attitude as well.

“I’d like to continue looking at yesterday’s documents.” (Molitia)

“If that’s the case, the master had already taken it with him.” (Gilbert)

“He took it?” (Molitia)

“He said that he would take care of it himself, so that you will have a good rest.” (Gilbert)
