Maisie Vaughn chimed in, "I don't care whose cat this is. Yvonne gave him to me, so take it up with her!"
"Ms. Yvonne!" the maid pleaded, looking at Yvonne in a panic. "Mr. Gonzalez trusted me to take care of Circe. If you give him away, I'm the one who'll get the blame!"
Circe's meows grew more pitiful as he paced anxiously inside the carrier, searching for an escape.
Yvonne's expression turned glacial. "What? Are you saying I don't even have the authority to get rid of a cat in my own home? You staff are all the same, blowing whichever way the wind favors. It's fine if you want to suck up to my brother, but don't think you can step on me to do it. Otherwise, you'll regret it!"
The maid stared at her in stunned silence. She used to think Yvonne was just a little arrogant, but her personality was becoming increasingly paranoid and sharp.
She was simply following orders to care for a cat. It was her job. What did that have to do with sucking up to or stepping on anyone?
But seeing the vicious look in Yvonne's eyes, the maid didn't dare utter another word.
Maisie chuckled dryly, sensing that this was no longer just about a cat. It was a power struggle between the Hanson siblings.
"I'm heading out, Yvonne!"
Maisie lifted the carrier and waved goodbye with a somewhat triumphant air.
"Go ahead," Yvonne said coldly. "Let's see if anyone dares to stop you."
After Maisie left, the maid frowned deeply. She excused herself, desperate to call Gonzalez and report what had happened.
Finding a quiet corner, she had just pulled out her phone when a shadow shifted behind her. An arm reached out and smacked the device right out of her hand.
Smack!
The phone hit the hard floor, its screen instantly shattering into a spiderweb of cracks.
The maid gasped and spun around.

With Adrian last comment, he's gonna get whipped and wonder what happened. Thank you so so much for the updates....
May we please have more updates. Thank you....
I would like for Norah to secretly have her memory restored and not tell anyone just to observe how everyone is trying to keep mess going....
Janice and Adrian don't want Norah to be with Xavier....
Thank you for the updates. You do keep us in suspense....
Curious as to how, what, when and where Norah will get her memory back of Xavier....
I'm so glad that Gonzalez was able to get Luke, Oliver and all others who wanted to challenge himas the CEO straight. Interesting how Xavier made reference to a girlfriend concerning his gift to Norah, but never did this before her accident. I'm grateful for the updates. Thank you...
I had a lot of catching up to do..oh buoy, what twist and turns. Loved every bit of it, thank you for keep updating the novel. Hoping for more love along the way....
May we please have updates. Thank you...
Someone needs to send a new picture of Trevor to Oliver and Luke so that they will get their requested reports to Gonzalez asap. If they didn't know, now they know what awaits them if they continue to disrespect and NOT follow orders....
