Chapter 11 - Emma Rewarded For Her Absolute Unwavering Loyalty
Dominic turned his attention toward Emma Collins, who was standing quietly by the breakfast tray, holding her feather duster and silver polish. "You stood up to a woman who threatened your livelihood to protect my family, Emma," Dominic said, looking at her with deep respect.
"Mrs. Catherine hired me to care for this family six years ago, Mr. Mercer," Emma replied simply, her chin held high. "I would rather be fired a hundred times than watch anyone hurt Miss Natalie or little Noah."

Dominic pulled a small gold key from his pocket, placing it gently into Emma's hand. "Starting today, you are no longer the head maid; you are the estate manager of the Mercer trust with full authority over all household staff and properties."
Emma looked at the key, her eyes filling with tears of quiet gratitude as Natalie smiled warmly at her from across the room.
