I have to say, I'm a little more than halfway through the story, and the "maid" Anna is getting on my nerves. I normally hate to crush peoples hopes and happiness and what-not, but god she is so annoying. Thinking that the duke would have an affair with her? If he did end up marrying the "saint" Susan, and assumed to be in love with her, why would he choose an angry, unkind, unkempt, non-charming girl to have an affair with? Why would he even have an affair!
Even if he did have an affair, he would have most likely gone for one of two kinds of women. Either some other gorgeous/sexy lady, but Susan already fills that role anyway, or a graceful, charming beauty, similar to Adelaide. Anna is neither of those and is not really the kind of person people choose for her looks or personality.
Again, I hate to bash people based on looks, but it's mostly personality wise that she lacks. She doesn't have any good qualities to bring her partner other than hate for the upper class, hate for those prettier than her, jealousy, mouthiness, and many other bad traits.
Rant over, I just really dislike her, probably as much as I hate Susan. I'll see how this story ends but I do kind of wish the Duke would just say "Why would I ever choose you?" Mean, but damn if I'm not petty in my fantasy stories.
Ok, I just read chapters 57 and 58 and wow, this maid is crazier than I thought. She's like those gross guys who think someone being kind to you once means you want to bone. I'm so happy the Duke was like "You're crazy" Plus all that is happening with Susan too. Nice
