The originally leisurely breakfast atmosphere on a snowy day suddenly felt as if it were invaded by cold wind, turning incredibly chilly. Tifa paused her elegant tea-making motion, and amidst the silent tension between the two witches, the black-haired Head Maid set down the teapot, signaling to the other maids in the dining room to leave together. However, the Duchess raised her right hand, indicating there was no need to avoid.
Her lazy demeanor completely vanished:
"Tifa, no need to prepare breakfast for Ms. Edwards."
"Ms. Edwards was yesterday's title; calling me Ms. Edwards now is more accurate."
Megan looked at the Duchess coldly yet with a smile:
"It doesn't matter whether breakfast this morning is eaten or not; anyway, my sister and I had our fill of midnight snacks last night."
She winked at Miss Galina:
"Duchess, you do know that the strong dessert is quite delicious, don't you?"
