Chapter 428

Windermere Estate

At this moment, the entire Abernathy family and all the servants were following the Ward case through television and smartphones. The news left everyone in deep shock, and the estate was buzzing with whispers.

“Ward?! Mrs. Abernathy’s assistant?!”

“Absolutely! That’s him! I had a bad feeling about him the moment I laid eyes on him. Always looked like a bad egg!”

God. Erica. Poor Erica! Such a sweet girl, gone just like that!”

The servants teared up, their sobbing filling the air.

“Erica’s death is half on Elspeth! How could she allow such a dangerous man in the house?! She’s too selfish, do servants‘ lives mean nothing?!” A voice cried out in righteous indignation.

“Do you think our ‘noble‘ lady of the house ever considered us as equals? A maid, who was close with Enca, spat out, “The mother and daughter are nothing but ruthless capitalists, more venomous than a scorpion’s sting! Enca had suffered so much under them. Sometimes, they would call her in the middle of the night, not letting her sleep. Once when she was changing, I saw bruises on her arm. When I asked her if Elspeth and her daughter were mistreating her, she just kept quiet.”

“That’s just heartbreaking! Elspeth and Glynnis are like a pair of barking dogs, always yapping!”

Everyone nodded in agreement. They had long grown tired of Elspeth and Glynnis, feeling helpless against the power of the Abernathy Group

“Alas! Back when Mrs. Evadne Abernathy was still mamed to Mr. Thaddeus Abernathy, she treated all of us well, she always defended us, never put on airs. When she left, she took the last vestige of humanity with her. If not for the money. I’d rather go pick up trash!” “Well, why don’t you go and do just that, stop whining here? A sharp voice suddenly pierced through the chatter, making everyone jumpl

They saw Glynnis, her face red with anger, striding towards them in fugh heels, “What did you just say? Say it again!”

The room fell silent, with everyone too scared to utter a word.

“You cowards, speak up, why aren’t you saying anything now?” Glynnis sneered, her expression full of contempt, “Humph, inferior creatures, no wonder you’re destined to be servants for a lifetime! You better watch your mouth when you’re spending Abemathy’s money! If I hear you mention Evadne again, I swear I’ll have your whole family evicted from Elmsworth?!!

“What did I say wrong?! Do you treat us like human beings?” A young and fiery servant retorted, “We signed a labor contract, not a bondage agreement! We are not the Abernathy family’s dogs!

“How dare you? Glynnis eyes bulged in rage, momentarily speechless

“Mrs. Evadne Abernathy was pretty inside and out, a thousand times better than you! You’re a lady of a wealthy house with no manners, no respect, you’re rude! I’ve had enough of working here! I quit, go ahead, do your worst! With that, the maid ripped off her name tag and threw it at Glynnis

“You wretch! You’ve crossed the line!”

Accustomed to throwing her weight around at home, Glynnis lunged at the servant, slapping her across the face

All the servants rose up against her, taking off their name tags in protest, resembling a rebellion!

Glynnis was taken aback, but still tried to maintain her haughty demeanor pointing at them and shouting, “What do you think you’re doing? I’ll call the police, you’ll all be fired! Without the Abemathy family, I’ll make sure you won’t survive!

“Glynnis,” a stern voice echoed from behind, instantly silencing the chaotic room.

Everyone turned around, bowing slightly, “Good day, Mr. Abernathy”

“Dad?” Glynnis floundered in panic.

Out of nowhere, Frederic and Dennis had appeared behind her! Wasn’t he supposed to be on a business trip? How did he get back so suddenly?!

“What were you doing just now? Did you hit someone?” Frederic asked sulkily, his face cold and stem

“Dad, listen to me, it’s their fault!” Glyngis quickly put on a pitiful act, running over to cling to her father’s arm like a mistreated rabbit, “These servants were talking behind my back. They were so rude, so disrespectful! They’re taking money from the Abernathy family and don’t even have the decency to respect their employers! Please, fire them all

“So that’s your reason for hitting them?” With a darkened face, Frederic ignored her complaints, continuing his questioning, “Just because you’re the daughter of the Abernathy family and they’re servants, you think you can hit them as you please? What happened to the manners I taught you since you were young? Have you forgotten all of them, or has this always been your behavior when I’m not Ground?”

“Dad, what are you saying?” Glynnis felt her heart pound in fear as she looked at Frederic in disbelief, “They insulted me and mom. Are you saying I’m at fault? How could you?!”

Regardless of her protests, Frederic remained grim and indifferent. The servants felt a sense of closure and started to leave.

Frederic, as the head of the prestigious Abernathy Group, always treated even the most ordinary employee with kindness. He would never let his power and status trample upon the dignity of common people.

Though he had many shortcomings, he still had the demeanor of a gentleman. This was the difference between a true aristocrat and a nouveau niche.

“Windermere Estate runs like a well–oiled machine every day, and that’s all thanks to your hard work. I appreciate all your efforts over the years, and I hope none of you will leave because of this. I wouldn’t know where to replace such excellent staff like you. For what happened today, it’s my daughter’s fault. I’ll let her apologize to you. Glynnis, apologize, Frederic looked at Glynnis, his eyes devoid of mirth “Dad, what did you say?” Glynnis was so angry; she was on the verge of blurting out “Are you crazy?”

“No matter what, hitting people is wrong. It’s not the manners I taught you as a kid, nor does it honor the Abernathy family name. Apologize right now, Frederic was stern; there was no room for negotiation!

Glynnis, left with no choice, could only grit her teeth and apologize to the servants with a beat red face, “Im sorry. It’s my fault‘ To the self–important and arrogant Glynnis, this was a moment of utter humiliation!

Just then, the servants all bowed in unison, “Miss Manila, good day!”

Frederic turned around in surprise, only to see Jareth holding Marilla’s hand, walking side by side like newlyweds returning from their wedding: even he could feel the sweet atmosphere,

He had to admit, they seemed like a perfect match. But what moved Frederic even more was the look in Jareth’s eyes as he looked at his younger daughter.

There was a depth of love and strong emotion there that he recognized all too well. Once, when he was infatuated with Cynthia, it was the same deep and unwavering look.

“It’s the son of the Fairhaven family! He’s with Miss Marilla?! The maids were bubbling with excitement!

“Awesome! Mr. Fairhaven is both handsome and rich, and most importantly, he’s Barry Fairhaven’s grandson. The whole Fairhaven Group will be his in the future. He can certainly protect Miss Marilla

“Yes, indeed! Miss Marilla will no longer be bullied by Glynnis!”

The last sentence was said in a whisper, but Frederic heard it, his brows furrowing slightly.

“Dad.” Marilla called out timidly; her expression alone was enough to tug at one’s heartstrings,

“Mr. Abemathy, good day.”

Jareth’s smile was brilliant and charming. He lifted his hand, intertwined with Marilla’s, deliberately showing off their relationship in front of everyone, “Marilla missed you and wanted to come and visit.”

Manilla blushed shyly, hiding her clear eyes and leaning into him. By this point, Glynnis had completely given up on becoming the lady. of the Fairhaven family after being humiliated by Jareth. But seeing her simple–minded sister and Jareth, sweet as honey and a step away from entering the Fairhaven family, she was still green with envy, her features twisted in jealousy!

“Good, good.”

Frederic nodded repeatedly. “Marilla, how have you been lately? Are you feeling well?”

“I’m fine. Hon….Jareth has been taking very good care of me,” Marilla almost called Jareth her honey befom quickly correcting herself.

Jareth’s eyes squinted slightly, his fingers tightening around hers, whispering in her ear, “Honestly, I prefer when you call me ‘honey”

Marilla bit her l*p, utterly embarrassed.

“Jareth, thank you for taking care of Marilla these past days,” Frederic’s words seemed to acknowledge their relationship! After all, they were in love and came from comparable backgrounds.

Even if Jareth really married Marilla, it would exceed his expectations. The union of the two families would greatly benefit the Abernathy Group: there was no reason for him to oppose,

“Mr. Abernathy, you’re too kind. It’s nothing,” Jareth looked at Marilla’s blushing face, his gaze filled with fiery desire, “Taking care of Marilla is my responsibility for the rest of my life, and I plan to pamper her for a lifetime and take care of her for a lifetime.”

Frederic awkwardly cleared his throat, his expression stiff, trying not to show his already approval of his future son–in–law. After all, Jarerth hadn’t proposed marriage. If he revealed his admission too early, how undignified would that be!

Everyone was overwhelmed by the sweetness! So, it probably wouldn’t be long before they could see Marilla walk down the aislel

Marilla’s eyes glistened, “Jareth.”

“Mr. Abemathy, did we interrupt you handling family matters?”

Jareth smirked casually. “I wonder what Glynnis did to make you so angry. You’re a busy man; Thad told me you’re so busy you barely have time to take care of your health. Don’t let small things upset you.”

Glynnis was trembling, on the verge of exploding with anger. She glared at Marilla, her eyes bloodshot, as if she wanted to tear her own sister apart!
