“She threw hot water on Miss Daisy,” One of the housekeepers responded. The three of them were all around Daisy, fuzzing and asking if she was okay.

“I did no such thing. What are you talking about?” I demanded, almost angry while I was writhing in pain.

“Why are you lying?” The cook glared hard at me. “I saw you and I’m sure everyone in the kitchen saw you throwing the teapot on her knowing fully well there was hot water inside it,”

“I’m so sure she didn’t mean to hurt me. I already told her about going out with Reina today and although she didn’t like the idea, I don’t think it’s enough reason for her to hurt me,” Daisy replied with a shaky voice and tears in her eyes.

“Is that it? Did you hurt her because of Reina,”

“Why are you asking me that when you already judged me without a trial? You don’t even trust me enough not to d something like that and yet, you want to hear my answer. Fine! I did it! I hurt her on purpose,”

Darius stared at me for a few seconds, shook his head, and said “This is below you. You shouldn’t have done somethin
