These servants adamantly affirmed that Millie was indeed responsible for drugging the Brown family on that particular night.
Nevertheless, the reality was that Gianna had instructed the servants to fabricate falsehoods, a maneuver designed to conceal the truth of the substitute marriage arrangement.
Doubt clouded Derek's assessment of Millie’s character.

“I'll oversee a comprehensive investigation into the drugging allegations,” Derek promised.
The subsequent day, Bria performed her cleaning duties with heightened trepidation.
Rhea’s recent directives had tasked her with sowing discord between Marcus and Millie through calculated misunderstandings. This task needed swift completion.
In a moment of frustration, she inadvertently knocked over a ceramic bottle on the bookshelf. It shattered into pieces on the floor. Mae, her coworker, trembled as they cleaned together.
“Oh my God! What course of action should we take?” Mae inquired.
Bria swiftly covered Mae’s mouth, reprimanding her.
“Refrain from screaming. Understand?” Bria instructed.

If he discovers it is broken, his wrath will be unfathomable. He entrusted its care to us,” Mae explained.
Bria’s anxiety surged, for the bottle’s value dwarfed her own.
Restlessness pervaded the study as Bria’s cloudy gaze transformed into one of resolute determination.

“Mrs. Thomas? But how can we blher? You're the one who broke it,” Mae retorted.
“If you reveal this truth, I'll hold you accountable for the damage. Mae, my tenure here spans years and is marked by meticulousness. Everyone knows your lack of caution,” Bria asserted.
