30 Years after Reincarnation, it turns out to be a Romance Fantasy Novel

Chapter 269



“…Hey, do you know where the head maid is?”

A servant was looking for the head maid, asking around among his colleagues, but they could only shrug.

“Now that you mention it, she’s nowhere to be seen.”
“Where could she have gone? I need to get something approved by her.”
“Hmm… Oh! Maybe she went to see the young miss again?”
“Ah, that makes sense.”

As expected, many minds were better than one—they quickly deduced where the head maid might be and nodded in agreement.

“The head maid’s got a nasty personality. I mean, does she really have to treat the young miss like that…?”

“Hey!”

“Mm!”

One of the servants scolded their colleague for speaking too freely, and the speaker immediately covered their mouth.

It was a level of cruelty beyond words.

And the head maid, fully aware of this, was actively making her life even worse.
