"You mean...about the case of Rebecca's death?" Daphne lowered her voice and turned pale.

"Yes, just yesterday, Musk was still discussing this case with my father." Lisa winked at her fiancé.

Musk took over the conversation knowingly: "Mrs. Wenders, with all due respect, regarding Rebecca's death, your husband's testimony to the police is inconsistent with the autopsy report, which is very detrimental to his situation. unfavorable."

"Mr. Justice! Listen to me, Maxim definitely did not murder Rebecca! He could not do such a cruel thing, and besides, he had no motive for doing so!"

Daphne defended her husband excitedly.

"Mr. Justice, you are also a man. Think about it, if you have a beautiful, generous, versatile, noble and strong wife and you are pregnant with a child, why would you have to kill her?"

"Mrs. Wenders, I'm afraid you don't know men well enough." Musk smiled faintly, "First of all, Rebecca may not be as perfect as she seems on the surface. To say the least, even if she is really flawless, she may not be able to After all, she is so perfect and can handle everything without relying on men, so where is the value of her husband? It’s probably not a good feeling to be completely obscured by her light.”

"What Musk said is so right!" Lisa took over. "Women should not be too strong, otherwise the pressure on men will be too great. It is better to find a mediocre mistress and find a manly husband from the admiring eyes of the other party. self-esteem!”

"Oh! God, Lisa, you are mocking me!" Musk pretended to be resentful, "Well, I am the poor little man who was suppressed by his powerful girlfriend, but I have absolutely no intention of cheating!"

"No, no, no, Mr. Justice, Lisa is not sarcastic about you, but she is reminding me not to just be content with being a mediocre woman who has no other merits except satisfying her husband's self-esteem." Lisa was deeply touched. say.

"Hey! You two, give me a little bit!" Lisa was furious, "I didn't mean that! Hey! It's all my fault that I can't control my mouth. I really want to slap myself both in the face!"

Musk and Daphne were both amused by her, and the atmosphere in the gallery became much more relaxed.

"Speaking of Rebecca's case, Mr. Justice, you know that someone launched a judicial duel against my husband for this, right?" Daphne looked at Musk.

"I heard that the other party is Rebecca's cousin Jack Feiffer, a powerful cavalry officer. I think your husband is no match for him."

"That's exactly what I'm worried about." Lisa looked sad. "Mr. Justice, I heard that you are a famous dueling attorney. If the court requires my husband to duel with Lieutenant Colonel Favre, you will Can you accept the challenge on behalf of my husband?”

"This..." Musk looked confused.

"Mr. Justice, we sincerely hire you to represent you on this case, no matter how much it costs!" Daphne said eagerly, "Lisa, can you also say something? Is 10,000 gold pounds enough?"

Lisa and Musk looked at each other.

Daphne is obviously not a person who is good at bargaining. If Lisa hadn't been on good terms with her, she would have taken the opportunity to kill her.

"Daphne, this is not a question of money. Musk and I still need to understand the case more deeply. Please give us some time to think it through before giving you an answer, okay?"

Lisa held her hand and gently reassured her not to be impatient.

Daphne was about to say something else when footsteps suddenly came from behind her.

Mrs. Danvers came over with a coffin face and said to the hostess: "Madam, it's getting late. You have to come with me to change the clothes you will wear at the ball today."

When Daphne saw this old woman, she was like a mouse seeing a cat. She became trembling with fear. She said sorry to Musk and Lisa and left with Mrs. Danvers.

Lisa watched the two people disappear at the top of the stairs, and said to her fiancé worriedly: "Daphne's character is too weak. She is nominally the mistress of Manderley Manor, but she is treated submissively by the housekeeper. If she doesn't change, With an inferiority complex, if you become tough and establish your dignity as a mistress in front of the servants, you will inevitably suffer the consequences in the future. "

Musk also saw that Daphne was being manipulated by Mrs. Danvers. As the owner, she was manipulated by a housekeeper. Even he, an outsider, couldn't stand it. Could it be that Daphne's new husband was not aware of it?

This is obviously illogical.

"With Daphne's character, it is not surprising to be bullied by servants who are afraid of being bullied. However, even if she dare not reprimand Mrs. Danvers face to face, she can at least complain to her husband. Don't Mr. Wenders, the male owner of Manderley Manor, also Dare you offend a mere housekeeper and warn Mrs. Danvers to show some respect to his wife and clear her place?"

After listening to Musk's question, Lisa fell into deep thought and spoke after a long time.

"My dear, Daphne always thinks the best of others. This is indeed a sign of her kindness, but in the social arena where the upper class is fighting, it is a fatal weakness."

"From the perspective of an onlooker, it is not difficult to see that Mrs. Danvers is a cunning old fox. She constantly puts pressure on the mistress, asking her to do things according to the rules she has set in the name of Daphne, and constantly squeezing Daphne's Bottom line, this is actually a kind of mental bullying, a kind of subtle discipline."

"But in Daphne's view, Mrs. Danvers is like a stern tutor. Although she is not respectful enough, she really does her best and teaches her the etiquette of upper class society so that she can be better qualified for the job of Mandala. The role of the mistress of Li Manor is completely unaware that she is being led by the other party step by step, and the relationship between master and servant is completely reversed. "

"In this case, how could she file a complaint against the housekeeper to her husband?"

"In the final analysis, this is the result of Daphne's own weak character."

"Mrs. Danvers is like a sinister and vicious hyena. When she finds a sheep hidden under the lion's skin, she will pounce on it and bite it without hesitation."

Lisa sighed and concluded pessimistically: "What I'm most worried about is that Daphne has been brainwashed by the housekeeper unknowingly. Even if I persuade her to be tough, act like a master, and set rules in front of the servants, she will I can’t listen to it either.”

Musk nodded with deep sympathy and said thoughtfully: "Maybe we should find an opportunity to talk to Maxim Wenders about this matter and let him take the initiative to protect his wife's dignity in front of the servants."
