Many people agreed with this statement.
As people asked questions, the director cut to the interior and deliberately filmed the expensive ornaments and paintings.
The staff had done their homework and had taken care to know the value of these objects, deliberately marking them with highly exaggerated statements side by side.
Predictably, this provoked a flurry of comments.
-I know this painting, it was auctioned at Sotheby’s and I heard it fetched $80 million. So the private buyer was the Espina family.
-Wow, that painting alone could buy two mansions.
-A family with real wealth is really discreet. Not like the ones in the old days, who let you know how much their underwear cost.
While everyone was talking, suddenly there was the sound of a girl panting.
The camera also moved at the will of the viewer.
Then, the crowd saw a small figure crouching at the entrance to the stairs and wiping the floor with a rag.
He was wearing a simple T-shirt and pants with an apron. He was on his knees, scrubbing the floor very hard and lifting his sleeve from time to time to wipe the sweat from his forehead.
Since only her back was visible, everyone started guessing.
-Is this the maid of the Espina family? She’s cleaning early in the morning.
-The maids are really pathetic. They have to get up so early to clean. What an exhausting job.
-Yes, they even do everything on their knees, isn’t this oppressing the maids? -Can’t she use a mop? This looks like the exploited slaves of old.
Some people disagreed and defended the Espina family.
-When the maid gets paid, she has to do her share of the work. Keep feeling sorry for people, maybe they scrub floors for a much higher salary than you.
-That’s how the nanny in my house scrubs the floors. The Espina family floors are much classier than mine….
The more noise there was, the more excited the director became.
No doubt he made the right decision. The Espina family attracted so much attention that even a maid cleaning the floor could attract so many comments.
While everyone was arguing, suddenly a spectator realized that something was wrong.
-Look guys, that’s not the maid, that’s Diana!
As soon as this sentence came out, everyone looked at the person in it, and at that moment, the “maid” turned her head.
It was Diana!
She was rich and famous, and she usually appeared in the programs as an elegant woman, but this time she was mopping the floor in the Espina family.
This contrast made the crowd freeze for a moment, and then the comments immediately erupted.
-Fuck, does Diana usually work as a maid in the Espina family?
-It’s too much, not even an adopted daughter can be so poor.
-It’s only half past five, isn’t it? This is treating her adopted daughter like an animal.
-My heart goes out to Diana. She’s usually glamorous on the outside, but I didn’t think it was all pretend. Privately, she’s being very despised by the Espina family.
-The Espina family has done such a great business, but they have a very bad heart, don’t they? If it wasn’t for this variety show, we wouldn’t have found out that Diana was leading this kind of life.
The public complained to the Espina family and got angry about Diana.
Doria was in front of her computer first thing in the morning, and was about to lose her eyes as she watched the numerous comments go by. But she was quite happy when she realized that all the comments insulted the Espina family.
They were also clumsily writing words in Diana’s defense.
-I have worked in the Espina family for years and have always taken care of Miss Diana. For the past twenty years, she has always been harassed.
With the appearance of the former Espina family maid, the comments became even crazier and more hostile.
Occasionally there were some who spoke on behalf of the Espina family.
-Are you stupid? Do you think the Espina family doesn’t know anything about filming? They won’t let Diana scrub the floor at this hour.
-With all the servants the Espina family has, how can they let their adopted daughter do such a thing? It’s best not to jump to conclusions just yet.
But these words were drowned out by others.
At that moment, the door to a room on the second floor was pushed open.
Hector emerged from the room fully clothed, and a camera from the second floor pointed at his face.
The Espina family was recognized as a family of great beauty in their circle, and Hector’s appearance was impeccable.
When he appeared on the screen, pop-ups abusing the Espina family were muted, and were followed by frantic confessions from female viewers.
-Who is this man? He’s very handsome. Is he the eldest son of the Espina family? How come he looks better than a star?
-He must be the eldest son of the Espina family. When Diana was interviewed before, she said she had an older brother, so this must be it. He’s beautiful.
-Wow, a young gentleman from a luxurious family, with money, beautiful face and body. I like him.
Seeing the audience suddenly changed after Hector showed his face, Doria immediately got angry and wrote something.
-Don’t be fooled by his face, I was a servant of the Espina family before and I saw him bullying Diana with my own eyes.
She did not imagine that this comment, instead of resonating with others, would spark outrage.
She underestimated the power of beauty.
In the minds of these viewers, the villain was more charming than the protagonist as long as he had a good face.
And, indeed, the comments bristled,
-You’re prattling on about being the maid of the Espina family, but here you are deliberately stirring up trouble and insulting the Espina family. No wonder they fired you.
-I think you were fired because you saw that the Espina family boy was handsome and you failed to seduce him first.
-To put it mildly, if I were Diana, I’d be willing to be intimidated by him.
-Big brother and adopted sister. Now that’s exciting.
Doria was so angry at the comments that she cursed.
-What’s wrong with these young people, what’s wrong with the world now, she’s just a pretty face!
She was too old to understand the thoughts of youth.
By this time, Hector had noticed Diana, who was mopping the floor at the bottom of the stairs, and laughed coldly.
“It’s too early to start setting up the Espina family. Diana sure is diligent.”
He walked toward the stairs until he stood in front of Diana.
Diana was scrubbing the floor with flushed cheeks when suddenly, she saw the leather shoes in front of her. She froze and looked up in confusion.
