The one thing Leonica knew she had and could utilize to its full potential was her family's unwavering love for her.
No matter what happened, no matter how many mistakes she made, they'd always believe her.
This was the sole reason she had no doubt that Irene would be kicked out of the house sooner or later, all because her mother would not stand to hear that the very child she refused to accept had just pushed her daughter off the stairs, 'out of spite'. And sure enough, Meredith was the first one to arrive, running over to the fallen Leonica with worry, while the other maids gathered around after hearing her shriek, asking if she was alright.
"Madam!" Meredith knelt beside Leonica, gently caressing her head as her eyes looked over her body, making sure there weren't any injuries. "Are you alright, what happened?"
Although the fall from the fifth stairs wasn't all too painful, Leonica's ankle did sting from being twisted wrong and the back of her head hurt a bit. But nothing she couldn't handle, especially since the end results would be worth it.
"I," She groaned, pretending to have a hard time speaking. "I, don't know."
"What going on here?" Cassandra's voice sounded, causing the maids to stand up, but Meredith remained by Leonica's side.
"She fell, madam." Meredith answered and Cassandra, who was just returning from the garden, gasped in surprise.
"Leonica! Oh my dear, are you okay?" She asked as she took the side opposite Meredith.
Leonica groaned again. "It hurts," She held her ankle, making her expression look more pained than her ankle actually hurt.
"How...how did this happen?" Cassandra asked and seconds later, her gaze settled on Irene who was still standing eight steps up.
She flinched under the elder woman's gaze that burned with clear disdain. Fortunately for her, before Cassandra could get to tearing her apart, Benjamin arrived at the scene.
"What's all this noise about?" He asked as he stepped out of his study. Concern quickly took over his features when he saw Leonica on the ground, Meredith and his wife beside her. "Leonica, what happened to you?" He asked as he rushed down stairs, brushing shoulders with Irene who suddenly felt like she mattered little.
"I...i fell."
"Don't lie Madam, i saw it all happen!" Meredith cut her off. Turning her gaze towards Irene, she began. "Mr. Romero, First Lady, I can no longer keep silent about the second madam's attitude towards Ms. Leonica. Ever since she came into this house, she's been nothing but mean, even when Ms. Leonica tries to help her and even though Ms. Leonica has assured me that she's simply having a hard time adjusting I can't sit by and watch things like this happen anymore."
"What are you saying you old hag?" Irene finally spoke up, looking puzzled. "If you're trying to put that fall on me, then I'd have you know that Leonica pushed herself."
"Pushed herself," Cassandra scoffed. "Can you even hear yourself! How dare you defame my daughter? You commit such an atrocious act, talk badly to Meredith and you don't even show an ounce of remorse."
"I didn't-"
"Enough!" Benjamin's voice silenced everyone and then he turned to face the maids. "Who witnessed my daughter's fall?"
None except Meredith raised her hand.
"Meredith," Benjamin turned his attention to her, looking and equally sounding serious. "Tell me, did Leonica push herself off that stairs or was she pushed by Irene."
