Chapter 200 The Function of Ink
Mier's voice contained a trace of severity; as the personal maid of the family's children, her status among the servants was the very top. Naturally, she had noticed the issue with this particular maid.
Although Lucien didn't turn around at this moment, he had secretly pricked up his ears, somewhat eager to see how this maid, who was suspected to be a player, would resolve this crisis.
After all, according to the rules of the family that Lurah belonged to, if a common maid was directed by someone else into an important area by mistake, she would face certain punishment. If she entered on her own initiative, the punishment would be even more severe, and she might even be hanged for it.
However, even the most common punishment was excruciating for a lowly maid, and at a minimum, she would be sent to solitary confinement for a week to a month. If this maid was a "player," then the cost of such "confinement" punishment would escalate significantly.
