Clarence Strikes

After leaving Leah's room, Clarence waited in the villa's living room.

Kate asked angrily, "Clarence, why aren't you leaving?

"Why are you still here after they've treated you so badly?

"I don't want to suffer here any longer!"

Clarence shook his head indifferently. "Master Sanders saved me, so I can't let her die. Wait a little longer. Five minutes tops, and they'll be coming out here to beg me."

"Beg you?"

Kate frowned, her face full of disbelief. "Why would that haughty Master Dunn ever beg you?

"And that woman speaks so condescendingly that she could never possibly beg you."

Clarence smiled. "What if they do?"

Kate crossed her arms. "If they beg you, I'll be your maid for a month and take care of you."

"A month? That's too little. A year!" Clarence shook his head.

Kate frowned. "Don't push it."

Clarence smiled at Kate. "Are you scared to bet?"

"Who said I'm scared?
