“You’re Eunha’s dog, don’t come near me.” Lisa placed the dog outside of her room and pointed at its nose.

The dog was locked outside the room, but it didn’t give up, instead starting to scratch at the door with its small claws.

Lisa sat on her bed for a while, and hearing that the dog didn’t give up, she went over and opened the door with a chilly expression, and the dog immediately ran into the room.

And so, the dog continued to play around by her legs as she studied for her exams, and the scene was quite harmonious.

After a few hours, someone knocked on her door louder than necessary, and Lisa impatiently put down her pen to open her door. Outside was a middle-aged female servant, and upon seeing Lisa, the former threw a bunch of clothes onto her face and said, “Here are your clothes!”

Lisa tilted her head as she looked at the servant. This servant was an unimportant servant that was only in charge of simple chores that couldn’t even hold a candle to the experienced servants of the Manoban family, but even such a servant could raise her voice against her.

Lisa smiled, and coupled with her clear gaze and pretty face, she looked positively innocently and harmless.

Coming from a backwater countryside and settling into this bustling and advanced city was anxiety-inducing for Lisa, and she took a long time to get used to life here. Thankfully, Yejin didn’t mistreat her on the surface level.

The outsiders all praised Yejin as the generous matriarch of the Manoban family that even took an illegitimate daughter under her wing.

In her past life, Lisa thought so too. Yejin didn’t treat her shabbily in terms of food and clothes, and she had once believed that if she worked hard enough, Yejin would accept her existence one day. She wasn’t the one that destroyed their family directly after all, and so she always endured them silently.

But these cold-hearted people never acknowledged her efforts, instead taking them for granted and saying that she should have done so in the first place!

She suddenly stopped smiling and leaned closer to the servant, whispering into her ear with a dismissive tone, “As low as my position may be, I’m still a member of the Manoban family that Grandfather brought back, while you’re just a servant. If you don’t want to work here anymore, I can go tell Grandfather. Let’s see who gets kicked out!”

After that, she stepped back and slammed the door in the servant’s face.

The servant was stunned by Lisa’s display of defiance and was on the brink of shouting in anger.

Who did she think she was?!

Did she think she’s afraid of her?

But after that, she came to her senses, and her face paled considerably in fear.

Servants lived on the good graces of their masters after all, and the person that was in charge of the Manoban family at the end of the day was still Master Manoban, Lisa’s grandfather. Yejin still had no right to control everything in the family, and the one that called the shots was still Master Manoban. Lisa was brought back personally by Master Manoban, and even though she wasn’t that likable, but no matter how much she didn’t have the favor of the other members of the Manoban family, a direct descendant accepted by Master Manoban wasn’t someone that she could compare to as a servant. Master Manoban had always valued his blood relations, and so he couldn’t and wouldn’t leave Lisa to the wolves completely.

After the servant thought all of this through, she patted her chest in fear and breathed deeply.

She and the other servants had been misled by Lady Su’s attitude towards Lisa for these past few days and had been deluded into thinking that it was alright to take advantage of Lisa.
