Spoiled Beyond Measure

Synopsis

I was the pampered eldest daughter of the Foster family—utterly hopeless at music, chess, painting, or literature, but fabulously rich beyond reckoning. On Valentine's Day, I completely botched the garden party. On a whim, I handed out solid-gold jewelry to every maid in the courtyard as an apology. But the new governess, Maya Irwin, threw the jewelry to the ground, clutching her heart in despair. "Money or not, you cannot humiliate your servants like this." Flustered, I pulled out a thick stack of banknotes and said, "Then... would gifting them brocade count as humiliation?" Then I waved a few estate deeds in the air. "Drawing lots for a manor—still no good?" The maids all pushed Maya aside in unison, "We love being spoiled rotten!"
