The maids who had just finished their discussion gathered together again with excitement and eagerness to gossip.
"Did you hear? The young master threw a tantrum."
"I just heard that the young master went to the study. It seems that he's really angry this time, preferring to stay in the study rather than in the same room with her."
"If you ask me, this Miss Yates is really something. The young master treats her so well, yet she doesn't appreciate it and even angers him. She's truly unaware of her blessings."
"Perhaps the wedding might actually be canceled. Oh my, that would be great if it were! She wasn't meant for the young master anyway. By then, Old Master Douglas could find a rich lady compatible with him, and she could just go back where she came from."
As they spoke, it was as if they had already envisioned Scarlett Yates being abandoned, and each revealed expressions of inexplicable excitement.
