Chapter 329

She hesitated, ready to say something— Just then the maid walked into the bedroom, without hesitation, she moved toward Linda, intending to apply the ointment. "Get away!" Linda suddenly yelled, her voice sharp. "I don’t want you!" Her frustration bubbled over, and she lashed out at the maid, not wanting her to be the one to tend to her. Linda’s teeth clenched tightly, her eyes blazing with anger. She was overwhelmed with disappointment and helplessness, and the maid had become the easiest target for her venting. Startled by the outburst, the maid nearly dropped the ointment in her hands. She glanced nervously at Robert, clearly unsure of what to do. But Linda's gaze remained fixed on Robert, her intent unmistakable. She didn’t want the maid’s help—she only wanted Robert. The room grew tense, the charged atmosphere hanging between them. Robert’s face, as always, remained unreadable.
