"Mr. Hayes, welcome home!" the servants greeted uniformly and respectfully.
They couldn't help but scrutinize Ellie Doyle.
They were extremely curious about the woman Mr. Hayes had brought home.
This was the first time Mr. Hayes had brought a woman home.
Even more, there was clear hostility in the glances some servants directed at Mr. Hayes's companion.
Over half of the domestic staff in the villa were young ladies from wealthy families who had struggled to get their positions.
Their aim was to get close to Hugo Hayes.
Unfortunately, after becoming servants, they realized that Mr. Hayes spent very little time at home.
Even when he was home, Mr. Hayes usually asked the servants to leave most of the time.
He didn't like having strangers around.
So, the only way they could try to get close to Hugo Hayes was through the young master.
Now, seeing Hugo Hayes suddenly bring a strange woman home, they were far from pleased.
