The party started getting ready right away and Loan tried to see Danna all day long, but Olivia had her working all the time, giving her barely any time to breastfeed her son. Loan’s expression hardened at the situation, helplessness was killing him, but he really couldn’t imagine how far Olivia was capable of going. “Everyone get out, now!” Mrs. Winston shouted as she entered the kitchen that afternoon. “You stay,” she hissed at Danna. Everyone left the kitchen, and Olivia turned to Danna. “From now on you have to be more clumsy,” Olivia said with dry determination. “Throw dishes, make mistakes, do useless things. You have to make Loan not want to keep you as an employee.” Danna understood the message immediately. Olivia was willing to hurt her pride, but she would do everything in her power to get her out of there. She knew she couldn’t do anything, trying to fight Olivia was impossible. However, Danna had no idea that she was willing to do much more. She tried to protest but Olivia wouldn’t hear of it, and she spent the next twenty minutes trying to instill in her something she could never be: clumsy. Danna really tried to spill things and do it wrong, but she just couldn’t do it. Olivia grew more frustrated by the second. “At least get your clothes dirty, you useless!” she growled angrily. Her frustration reached such a point that suddenly Danna felt her hand grabbed by the wrist and before she could resist she had already stuck her to one of the pots on the stove. Danna screamed at the burn on her palm and fought to pull it away while she pressed it against her chest and tears flooded her eyes. She smelled like burnt flesh, her skin was red and burning and it hurt like hell. Thank you for reading at LeeNovelas.com. Olivia laughed as Danna sobbed in pain, and with a cruel smile she said: “Now you’re really going to be clumsy. Trust me, it’s better for you.” Even if your hand hurts, you’re not going to stop working, just in case things fall out the way they should. Danna gritted her teeth as Olivia left, put her hand in cold water and did everything she could to feel better, but only managed to bandage it and hold on. At dinner time, of course, she couldn’t stop a jug of water that was too heavy from falling to the floor at her feet and Loan immediately saw her bandaged hand. “What happened?” she hissed as everyone focused on the girl’s injured hand, but Olivia quickly stepped forward. “Don’t worry, it was an accident,” she said. “You should be careful,” Leda told her in an icy tone, “you can’t be so clumsy when you work so close to the fire.

Loan looked at Danna in horror as she struggled to hold back her tears, but he barely made an attempt to get up from his chair when he saw her silently denying her, her eyes fixed on the floor. Loan was furious.Danna was hurt and suspected that Olivia had something to do with it. He didn’t even finish eating, the count barely invited him to drink a liquor with him, accompanied him for a few minutes to his office and then apologized. He went to his room to get a balm to heal her and headed to the employees’ cottages without caring that it was not yet dark. Loan hurried his steps there, terrified by the possibility that something worse had happened to her. There was nothing more important than her safety. “Tell me what the hell happened, now!” he almost roared as he reached her window but she stopped him with just a look. She felt so humiliated for having been the victim of Olivia’s abuse, but she didn’t want to make a scandal and have the woman end up sending her to jail that same night. “I’m fine… I’m really fine…” Danna said in a firm tone of voice, but her words were full of concern and fatigue. “That’s a lie,” Loan hissed, coming in and taking her injured hand to remove the bandage. “Did that wretch do this to you? Tell me!” Danna gulped and nodded. “She wanted me to be clumsier. Since I didn’t meet her expectations, she stuck my hand into a boiling pot.” “Damn witch!” Loan growled as he felt a wave of fury rising inside him at the sight of her red, blistered palm. “I’ll kill her…” “Loan… We can’t face her, not now,” she said sadly and resignedly. Loan stared at her, his teeth clashing in fury. He wanted to protect her, and if she had given up, he was far from it.He wanted to protect her, and if she had given up, he was far from it.He wanted to protect her, and if she had given up, he was far from it.By this time tomorrow, I swear on our son that all our debts to Olivia Winston will be settled,” Loan said determinedly. Can you hold out one more day? He saw her nod with a serious and worried expression. “Yes, if it’s for you, I can.” Loan took her to the bathroom to wash her hand and while he healed it he felt rage run through his body. He couldn’t stand to see her like that, hurt and full of pain, but he knew Danna was right. If he tried to confront Olivia, she would do everything in her power to get revenge before they could stop her. Right then he felt like sticking Olivia Winston’s head in a guillotine, so he consoled himself with the thought that that was getting closer and closer. Loan sighed and clenched her fists, trying to stay calm. She hurried to finish healing Danna’s burn. “You better not force your hand tonight,” she said as she put a clean bandage on it. She shook her head. —That’s practically impossible, I have to take care of the baby — he murmured. Loan stepped forward, took his chin and gave him a soft kiss. —Don’t worry, I’ll take care of him. — With a smile full of tenderness, he took the little one in his arms. A wave of love and protection flooded his entire being. —It can’t be that hard to change a diaper, right, champ? And the truth was that with the training he had from his niece Adriana, it wasn’t too difficult… except maybe for the part about little boys urinating upwards and there he found himself, dodging the stream for half the room while Mauro laughed. He helped Danna breastfeed him and then began to rock him and put him to sleep while she lay down for a moment on the bed. Loan’s heart broke seeing her like that, so vulnerable but so strong at the same time. He took the baby in his arms so Danna could rest a little and promised that from that moment on nothing and no one would hurt them again. He spent the night taking care of the two of them, and when dawn was breaking he kissed her goodbye. “This hell ends today, baby, trust me,” he told her before climbing out the window again, not noticing that there was a person very close to them, hidden behind the line of hedges, who growled helplessly when she saw him walk away from the staff house. “Damn bitch! You fooled me so well!” Olivia snapped through gritted teeth. You didn’t have to know him, but you fuck him at night. And in the end it doesn’t matter how rich or noble a man is, they all fall for a pussy to fuck. Her father was the living example, a count married to a miserable governess, and now she had two low-class sisters who were going to take two thirds of an inheritance that should have been all hers. She took one last look at the little house and turned around with an evil smile, because if there was one thing she was very good at, it was taking revenge on the people she hated, and both Loan Keller and the con artist Danna McKenzie had already fallen into that category for her.NôvelDrama.Org © content.
