After she saw the maid leave the room, Scarlett called someone.
On the second ring, the phone call is connected. "Uncle Adams . . . we haven't talked in a long time. How are you?" She asked politely.
"OMG! T-This... Young Miss Scarlett?" The middle-aged man's voice on the other end sounded trembling, making Scarlett smile.
'This old man, how could he still remember my voice after so many years of not speaking to each other!?' She felt goosebumps.
"Uncle... Yes, I'm Scarlett. We haven't spoken in a long time. How are you doing there?"
"I'm fine, young miss. How about you? Is everything fine? How is your father? Is he still in a coma?"
"Oh, how did you know about my dad?" Scarlett is surprised to learn that Uncle Adams still knows about her family's condition even though he is no longer working for them.
"Hahaha, young miss. Even though I haven't worked there long, I still know about your condition and what happened at home..." Uncle Adams said proudly.
Scarlett also couldn't help laughing, "Must be Aunt Lana who told you, right?"
"Yes, yes... That old woman always calls me and reports everything. I also know she is working for you at your house in the capital." He chuckled.
"I knew it! Well, Uncle Adams... Aunt Lana is not an old woman. She is still beautiful even though she is not young anymore. You have to try to woo her while she is still single..."
Uncle Adams flinched at her words, "Y-Young Miss Scarlett, why did you suddenly call me?" He tried to lessen his embarrassment by changing the topic.
Scarlett didn't want to tease him anymore. She said, "Well, my dad is back to his senses. He is in the recovery stage. I hope he will be alright in a few days and can go home soon. And I called because I need you to do something!"
"Thank god. This is good news... Old Piers has finally passed this ordeal. Miss, you said you needed me earlier!? May I know what that is?" Adam was curious.
Scarlett immediately told the purpose of her call. They talked for a few minutes, after which she sat on the couch and opened her laptop. She hacked into the CCTV in the house and checked what had happened the last few days while her father was in the hospital.
She was immersed in watching the CCTV footage, and after a few minutes, she smiled bitterly, seeing what was happening in this house while her father was not home.
"How stupid and greedy these people are!!" She muttered and closed her laptop.
Later...
Scarlett saw several people come into the room and stand before her.
The spacious living room was quiet even though there were about 10 people in it, including Scarlett. No one said a word. All the maids just stared at Scarlett with confused and worried looks.
"Where's the housekeeper?" Scarlett finally asked after she blessed them with her chilling gaze.
The young maid who greeted her earlier spoke, "Y-Young miss, Ms. Liam is on her way home..." She stuttered.
"Very good! A maid too brave to keep me waiting, huh!?" Scarlett said and took her cell phone, and called David.
"Where are you, David!?"
"Young Miss, I am already at the gate..."
"Good! You can enter now..." She gracefully placed her cell phone on the coffee table and then looked at the entrance calmly.
Soon, the sound of a door opening was heard. Everyone in the room jolted. They looked at the door curiously.
They were terrified when they saw a tall man in a black suit enter the room. They all know who this man is. He is Mr. David Irvin, the family attorney. Why did he suddenly come to this house!?
pαndα`noνɐ1--сoМ Their faces turn pale.
Scarlett smiled slightly at David when she saw him enter the room. She asks him to sit. Then she turned her gaze to all the maids.
"...I'm not going to waste your precious time. I will say what I want to say. Well, I'm sure everyone here already knows what happened to your Madam, right!?" After she saw them nod, she continued, "She's not the Madam in this house. Not anymore. My father already divorced her..."
She stopped again to see their reactions and smiled inwardly at their terrifying expressions.
"That woman has no more business in this house. However, I am very disappointed in you all because you let that woman into this house and let her take many things that shouldn't belong to her..."
Scarlett's expression looked saddened, but inside, she wanted to laugh when she saw them in shock. Now, they looked at each other, looking for the traitor among them.
"You! Must be you who told young miss, right!?" A middle-aged man whispered to the young maid beside him.
"I didn't. I never even spoke to the Young miss!" The girl shook her head and avoided eye contact.
And many whispered between them, blaming each other...
Scarlett suddenly feels rejoiced to see these maids suspicious of one another.
Well, she didn't need a spy among them. She could know everything even though they had deleted the CCTV footage. She could get the footage back if they didn't shut down the CCTV and crashed the server.
Besides getting a lot of evidence of their crime from her house's hidden CCTV, Scarlett also hacks all their phones. She needs to do it to find out their communication with Lauren the bitch!
Geez!! Tasks like this were just child's play to her. She would use all this evidence to pressure them into signing the termination contract worker! She couldn't keep Lauren's people in this house.
"Young Miss... We didn't do that!" Said the middle-aged man trying to convince Scarlett.
"Yes, young miss... We never let Madam take anything from upstairs..." Another maid said.
"Yes, yes... We let her in, but she didn't take out anything. She just brought her clothes. We can testify to that..."
Hearing how hard they were trying to protect Lauren made Scarlett burst out laughing.
"Hahaha... you guys are so funny!"
Her laughter could make everyone stunned.
