A Flash Marriage Can Be A Treasure novel Chapter 391

Leigh listens quietly until the servant finishes her words, and then he jokes with Jana, "I haven't expected that you know the servants' names, as you usually look down on them and often hit and scold them."

Jana's heart skips a beat again. She hurriedly says, "Leigh, this is the villa you bought for me. I know the names of the servants here so as to instruct them to do their work better. It's not a strange thing."

"Indeed, there's nothing strange about it." Leigh nods in agreement, while the smile in his eyes turns even colder.

Jana stands beside him, her heart beating wildly.

She comforts herself with the thought that Leigh seldom visits here, no camera is installed in the villa, and even the servants are bribed by her. Therefore, it is impossible for him to know those things.

Leigh sits there with his legs slightly crossed. At times, he picks up the teacup to drink some tea.

Most of the servants on duty come to the villa. They stand next to each other while breathing carefully. As for the servants on leave, the steward is calling to urge them to come back.

About an hour later, the several servants on leave also arrive one after another.

The steward steps forward and says carefully, "Mr. Leigh, all the servants are here."

"Alright." Leigh nods, his eyes sweeping around the servants. "Since you are all here, who have been taking care of her, including those in charge of her meals, on the third floor these several months?"

Several servants step out, including Bonnie, with their heads lowered.

Leigh asks in a flat voice, "Has she got a bad appetite since two months ago? The ingredients prepared for her in the kitchen every day, including milk and eggs, are they fresh?"

A servant answers with her voice trembling, "Yes, Miss Jessie's appetite hasn't been good."

"Vegetables and beef are bought every morning, and they are very fresh." Another servant says. He then shows Leigh the list of dishes bought during the period of time.

Leigh only glances at it and asks, "Then what food does she like and what she doesn't?"

The servants look at each other and lower their heads without saying a word.

"You can't even answer such a simple question?" Leigh sneers and says in a cold tone, "Or is it because you haven't taken good care of her?"

"It's not like that, Mr. Leigh. Miss Jessie eats little, and we couldn't tell."

"Yes. Miss Jessie only eats a little of every dish."

"Bullshit!" Leigh throws the teacup heavily to the ground.

The teacup instantly shatters, while the servants shake with fear, both their hands and legs trembling.

Leigh says angrily, "Even if she eats little, she will definitely eat a little more when she likes the dishes! Also, taking charge of her meals requires detailed records of what she eats every day. Why the hell are you showing me the grocery list then? Is it because I haven't paid you enough money, or do you think I'm an idiot?"

He closes his eyes to calm his emotions. Then he controls his temper and asks the servants, "Who was the one that took care of her on the 22nd of last month?"

No servant answers.

Leigh's eyes suddenly darken. He looks at the steward and says, "What? I've paid you a lot of money to do your job, and you didn't even make a duty roster? Are you simply eating and sleeping every day?"

"Mr. Leigh, there's a duty roster, but..." The steward answers in a cold sweat, "But the servant, who was on duty last time, accidentally threw it away like garbage, so there's no duty roster of last month."

"I want it, and then you lose it. What a coincidence!" Leigh smiles. All of a sudden, he stands up and gives the steward a kick.

The kick is such that the steward rolls to the entrance, unable to stand again.

All the servants are frightened, and even Jana did not expect Leigh to be so violent. Her heart is filled with fear.
