Christabel Goulden, The ambitious maid #11 [Keystone - ENG 1]

Played by : H. L.

Motto: One of the most unpleasant things about ambition is the display of modesty
Group: Servants of the Guests

Teaser:

It would seem, in the eyes of most, that serving as a lady’s maid is one of the most significant positions when in service. Being paid to travel, attending high society, always at the heart of gossip and updated on the latest news from social circles, having an influential lady as a confidant, someone who can help you in times of trouble, someone who can come and save you when you are in trouble ... is this not Paradise? Perhaps for those born without ambition, but Christabel knows that all that glitters is not gold, and at heart that what life has reserved for her has never been enough: hand-me-down clothes, wearing no jewels or anything else that might obscure the splendor of her lady, to be considered little more than a graceful ornament. She is ignored by men who are both worldly and fascinating, being desired at most by the vulgar stable man, whom she as a decorous servant must nevertheless deny. But more than anything else, Christabel suffers from being far from the center of attention, the silent punishment of being only the tapestry in the shining life of someone else is a constant scorching disappointment for someone who feels, instead, that she is deserving of every kind of care and ease. Ah, if only it would be possible to find a way to improve her situation, she would be a perfect lady. Sleeping late, changing clothes five times a day, courted and admired, spending the afternoon playing cards and sipping tea ... this should have been her destiny, although perhaps it is nothing but a charming daydream which is impossible for her to renounce.

Relations:

She is in the service of Sir Charles Cowdery   and Lady Johanna McEwan   to whom she is a lady’s maid. It would seem that the distinguished waiter Leo Vaughan   gives her too much attention. Scarborough house servants has often seen her whispering in a corner with Edmond Roncourt  . She has bickered with Eileen Walsh  , whom she considers rather inelegant.
