Honestly, this is frustrating, but i get why she acts like this. In our eyes, it is common sense that Vincent is powerfull enough to deal with these servants and all, but from Paulas perspective, since the moment she met him to now, he's been in constant danger from his own family and higher society. Adding to that Paulas low self esteem which is understanable considering that FUCKASS sister of hers, getting over decades of trauma won't happen for someone just because a few people were kind towards her for a period of time when she worked as Vincents maid. As i said, it is incredibly frustrating seeing how much she deprevates her self when its so clear Vincent loves her, and shes a great person, but you'd have to be really delusional to expect her to love her self simply because he does. Paula is a really pitifull and annoying person at times, but her actions are logical considering the abuse she faced all her life. Also someone said "girl you have been with him for onlh one chapter, chill" and that's literally not true, because he didnt say he loves her, they havent officialy become a couple, bruh she thinks he needs her as a comfort place and that this dynamic is give and take from one side! They reconnected yes, but they were apart for so long its no wonder she still has that lack of trust in him - no, its more of a lack her own worth. She doesn't even see her self worthy of his trust like, shes just happy to be there
