Chapter 1545
Keh sat down, his gaze lingering on the seats where Arabe and Serena had once sat, a
heaviness settling in his chest.
Edith exined as she served the food, "This one is wrapped in dough and filled with shrimp. Then
there''s this one."
Louisa watched her speak with such animation that she couldn''t help but ask, "You seem in a good
mood?"
Caught off guard by Mrs. Collins'' observation, Edith quicklyposed herself and replied respectfully,
"Well, these dishes are delicately made, so I can''t help but feel a bit more spirited when I talk about
them."
But after all these years in this home, Louisa knew Edith like the back of her hand.
Leaning back in her chair, Louisa said soothingly, "Since we''re feeling a bit down, why don''t you share
what''s got you so cheerful? Maybe it''ll rub off on us."
Feeling guilty, Edith confessed, "The very thing that''s made me happy is the same thing that''s
saddened you, Mr. and Mrs. Collins."
Keh and Louisa were surprised. What did she mean?
"Though I know it''s not my ce to say, the decision to have Ms. Serena Collins reflect on her behavior
in the guesthouse was absolutely the right one! From today on, Ms. Arabe Collins won''t have to
endure Ms. Serena Collins''s attitude any longer!"
Louisa perked up, "So, you know something about this?"
"Edith, tell us what you know." Keh said, "Don''t hold back. Speak freely."
It looked like they truly desired to know; after pondering for a moment, Edith began, "Well, don''t me
me for speaking out of turn. It all started with Martha. From the day Ms. Arabe Collins returned, she
took it upon herself to make life difficult for her. To your faces, she''s all sweet talk, but the moment
you''re gone, she wouldn''t even give Ms. Arabe Collins the time of day, always throwing shade.
Anyone would think she was thedy of the house."
Hearing this, Keh and Louisa were both shocked and outraged.
How dare a mere servant treat their long-lost daughter with such contempt? This was outrageous! Who
gave her such audacity?!
"If the twodies happened to dine together, and if you weren''t present, Martha would only attend to

Ms. Serena Collins, deliberately ignoring Ms. Arabe Collins. She''d also make snide remarks, which
left me thinking that we needed to treat Ms. Arabe Collins better, given all she''d been through. But
Martha would give a hard time to anyone who showed kindness to Ms. Arabe Collins."
"How dare she!" Louisa was livid, shocked by Martha''s behind-the-scenes maniption.
"Because I was kind to Ms. Arabe Collins, Martha went out of her way to trip me up. She''d push me
when I was going down the stairs, hoping I''d fall. If I was cleaning, she''d intentionally dirty the ce
again. She even dumped trash on my bed, used my toothbrush to clean the toilet, and spat in my
shower gel."
"What kind of person does that? Is she even human?" Keh was hearing about such behavior for
the first time and began to regret entrusting Serena to someone like Martha. Serena''s current behavior
was likely influenced by her.
"Her treatment of me is one thing, but what really angers me is her disrespect toward Ms. Arabe
Collins. From start to finish, she didn''t show an ounce of respect!"
"A servant with more airs than the homeowner," Louisa was fuming. How had she not noticed this
before?
"I think it''s because of her that Ms. Serena Collins has gone astray. There was one time when I had a
cold for many days, and it was Ms. Arabe Collins who noticed something was wrong with me and
brought me some medicine. I was so grateful that on my day off, I bought a bouquet of flowers to
arrange for Ms. Arabe Collins as a thank-you. But Serena intercepted me. She was in a foul mood
that day because she wanted rk to go shopping with her, but Ms. Arabe Collins had called him
away. Serena thought I had tipped off Ms. Arabe Collins, leading her to ''steal'' rk away. Serena
<pshed out at me, calling me Ms. Arabe Collins''spdog, and the things she said were truly vile."
