Let Me Go, Mr. Harvey novel Chapter 321

Cleo stopped immediately and gave Angela a ferocious stare. Then she held the arm of Elva and cried, "Aunt Elva, you promised you would take care of me and wouldn't allow anyone to bully me when my mother sent me here."

Hearing it, Elva had no idea what to say as she did have promised something like that.

"Please say something, Aunt Elva. Do you just watch Angela insulting me?!" said Cleo with a raised voice.

The arm of Elva was a little painful as being held by Cleo. Elva tried to pull her arm out but failed. She had to say moodily, "Angela, as Cleo is our relative, how about forgiving her this time? And we don't lack s maid. So please let Cleo do whatever she wants as I've promised her mother."

"Since we don't lack a maid, I'll fire her," said Angela.

'What's wrong with Mom? She even allows a maid to bully her.' thought Angela disappointedly.

Hearing that, Cleo was stunned and responded after quite a long while, "You...you are going to fire me?"

"Angela, you may not know that Cleo is a relative of your father. It's not suitable to do so," said Elva.

Lorenzo frowned and said nothing.

"She took the necklace from my room without permission. It's regarded as stealing," said Angela, "and I don't like a maid that has sticky fingers. So she's fired. Mary, please clear the salary for this lady and ask her to leave.

"Yes," responded a maid as she stood out.

Seeing that Angela was really going to fire her, Cleo shook the arm of Elva hard and said anxiously, "Please say something, Aunt Elva. Angela is going to fire me!"

"Even though my mom is your aunt, she is closer to me in relationship. So she won't speak for you," said Angela, "and apart from the necklace, any other things you have taken from my home don't need to be returned."

"But I want to remind you to not take yourself too seriously!"

Elva wanted to persuade Angela not to fire Cleo, but she was afraid that Angela would be angry with her as they had some problem recently.

But Cleo misunderstood Elva and said, "I thought you were a good person, Aunt Elva! I'll leave now. I didn’t beg you to let me stay here!"

"You guys act like a snob!" said Cleo as she spat on the ground.

With those words, Cleo picked up the bowl in front of Angela and threw it to the ground and left.

Seeing that Cleo left, the maids in the dining room couldn't help smiling with joy.

Sitting down, Angela sent some messages and gave her phone to James. Holding the phone, James slightly smiled as if he had thought of something.

"Good job, Angela!" said Greyson obsequiously and complained, "We didn't took Cleo seriously when she just came here. However, after Mom spoke for her for several times, became more and more arrogant and looked down her nose at everybody."

Angela didn't expect that a maid would have such a big temper, either. After asking the maids to clean up the ground, Angela said to Elva, "Mom, you shouldn't have been that generous with her."

"But she's a relative of your father. Since you have treated her like that, she may speak ill of us in front of the old neighbors of your father," said Elva cautiously.

"But Cleo may not appreciate what you have done for her. Instead, she may even resent you," said Angela.

While not agreeing with Angela, Elva didn't say anything more.

All of them were eating silently around the table.
