Everyone was shocked.
Amelia’s expression changed drastically as if she had just been slapped in the face.
In The Ataraxy, everyone was aware that although she was a housemaid, Jared listened to her more often than not. She was indeed more like one of the owners here.
It could also explain why Janice and Tony remained silent throughout their conversation.
They didn’t expect that Sasha would throw a fit as soon as she got here.
“Mr. Jadeson, I…”
“It’s not your place to tell us how to manage The Ataraxy. You have only been with the family for a few days, and you’re already telling me what to do. This is unacceptable!”
Sure enough, Jared took Amelia’s side. With a sullen expression on his face, he stared at Sasha and began to reprimand her.
Tony and Janice were startled by his words.
“Mr. Jadeson, you…”
“You must be mistaken. Old Mr. Jadeson asked me to come over. I just wanted to know who is in charge here. If you think she can represent everyone here, I will just talk directly to her. And it will save you the hassle, I suppose.”
Unexpectedly, Sasha remained unperturbed despite being insulted.
She gave the enraged Jared a blank look before grabbing the ledger from Tony. After that, she handed it to Amelia.
Oh Lord!
Janice’s eyes widened in astonishment.
Similarly, Tony gasped in shock. Deep down, he couldn’t help but admire Sasha, who cut him off earlier.
Old Mr. Jadeson has found the right person.
“You…” Jared almost exploded with rage.
Amelia, on the other hand, panicked. There was no way she would dare take the ledger. To put it plainly, she was only able to act as she pleased in The Ataraxy because she had Jared’s backing. However, she was basically a nobody in front of Jonathan.
“Madam, you’re giving me a hard time now. I’m sorry for being so nosy. As a housemaid, I’m in no position to meddle in your affairs. I… I deserve to be punished!”
With that, she started to slap herself.
Tony and Janice stood aghast at the sight of that.
On the other hand, Sasha remained indifferent. It was not until Amelia left that she turned to look at Jared, who was glaring at her.
