Chapter 122 - "Dumping Responsibility"
The maids" expression rapidly changed. The wisest among them hurriedly did a thorough check on the baby, but she didn"t find anything wrong other than the baby seemed to be in a deep sleep.
"This...what to do? Is the young miss alright? Is this normal?" One of the maids trembled as she glanced at Ainsley. She never wanted to serve this puppet family head, and now, they might even get into troubles.
What if the other higher-ups blamed them if anything happened to the young miss? Even if she"s a puppet, she"s still a valuable trophy. For the baby to suddenly sleep so mindlessly that she looked like in a deep coma…
That"s a disaster!
The other maids also realised the trouble they"re getting into. They"re not fools. For Ainsley to keep sleeping no matter hard they tried to wake her up...something must be wrong with her.
"Ugh, is the young miss sick? If so, won"t we get blamed?"
"Ah, that"s terrible! What to do? Tell Lady Elliana? Or the supreme elder?"
"How about telling the other branch family heads?"
"What"s that got to do with the branch families, you moron? Or are you a spy sent by the branch families?" The youngest maid there rolled her eyes at one of her colleagues" remarks.
Why should they tell the other branch families? That"s akin to muddle the already muddled problem!
"Wait, maybe she"s just too tired!" Someone chipped in.
"Ha!" The maid suspected to be a spy harrumphed coldly. "Are you sure the young miss is just sleeping? Doesn"t she look like she"s in a coma?" She looked at Ainsley briefly before shaking her head.
"I don"t want to shoulder the blame if anything happens to the young miss!" She added.
Well, who would want to be blamed for something they didn"t do? The other maids also nodded in unison.
"Of course! All of us don"t want that, but no matter what, if the higher-ups learned this matter…" one of the youngest maids gulped. Her eyes darted around nervously.
"Ah, right...if someone knew that the young miss fell into a coma when we are the one responsible for her daily necessities...won"t they suspect us?"
A smarter maid among the group of 10 maids in the room hurriedly made a wild guess.
Yes, the higher-ups would immediately suspect them since they"re the last batch who came into contact with the young miss before she fell into a coma!
Hearing what the other maid said, the rest instantly broke into an uproar.
"Should we...hide this problem?" One of the maids was so agitated that she suddenly blurted out an idea. "How about we lock the room, never letting others know about this trouble–"
"What the h.e.l.l? Watch your mouth!" The oldest maid instantly rebuked the careless maid. Her face flushed red in anger.
What a vile maid! Locking the family head? If someone heard what she said, all of them would be in bigger trouble, ah!
"Do you want to murder the young miss? If we hide the problem, she might die!" Another maid with a kind heart also glared at the irresponsible maid with red eyes.
Even if she wasn"t that fond of Ainsley, the latter was still a baby. How could these maids talk as if she"s just a doll?
Even if the baby"s popularity plummeted ever since these people know that she could use charm to attract others" attention, isn"t it too harsh to suddenly bully her like this?
Yes, ever since the rumour about Ainsley"s charm power spread among the family members, the Sloans changed their att.i.tude toward the baby.
They were quite fond of her before, but when they thought she might be using an underhanded trick such as using her charm ability, they felt repulsed.
What a cunning baby! If the rumour was true, doesn"t that mean she"s a vile person who used her ability to cater to her wishes? She"s still young, yet she seduced people here and there using her charm ability!
What a wh*re!
Clearly, charm ability users didn"t have good reputations in the ability users community. More often, those blessed with such ability would hide it while using it in silence.
Even if this ability was seen as a vile ability, it was one of the most helpful abilities.
Others were just "disgusted" with charm ability users since they didn"t want to act like a fool to fawn over someone just because of their power.
Those enchanted by a charm ability user would be no different than a love slave. That"s so shameful in the eyes of powerful mafia families.
Thus, the mafia society strongly condemned charm ability users even though in other professions, charm ability users were akin to diamonds.
They could charm people, could be an idol, could be a good a.s.sist for psychologists, some could even be a powerful beast tamer relying on their charm ability.
Even the diplomat and other politicians also needed a charm ability to at least smoothen their career path.
Being loved and respected by others would never be a bad thing, even if it was thanks to an ability.
However, Ainsley was unfortunately born in a mafia supremacy environment.
Once the rumour spreads, even the maids looked at her in slight disgust. Well, they wouldn"t show it blatantly if they were smart.
Putting aside the matter of charm ability users, the maids gathered around Ainsley with panicked faces.
"Then what to do, ah?! Call the doctor? What if she has a chronic disease?" The maids mumbled with gloomy eyes.
None of them wanted to take responsibility until a maid abruptly raised her hand and spoke in a hushed voice.
"Hey, hey, why don"t we just...dump the responsibility to Lady Elliana?"
