Anya, who was in the room, couldn't stop herself and went out. She stood by the stairs, contemplating going downstairs. When she heard the maid, she blamed herself for walking around, which was misunderstood and so many things happened. Since she didn't hear Alvin speak, she hoped he could understand and let the maid go.
Nevertheless, she heard him pass his decree without a hint of sympathy towards women, "Throw her out of the estate. Let her work for that woman."
His little efforts to take care of her became ashes after she heard him. 'That woman,' Anya furrowed hearing Alvin call his mother in such a way. It wasn't the first time she saw him pissed off instantly, she knew he hated his parents for some reason. He never shared with her though.
Downstairs, the maid froze. Sophie looked troubled too. The biting cold outside would kill the maid before she could even walk a few meters. It was also dark and unsafe for women.
