The Psychotic Girl’s Revenge

After Paige finished listing names, many of those present were already trembling with fear. No one dared to ask why they were being fired. Looking at Beau, the housekeeper, kneeling on the ground and seeing the old man getting kicked, there was no need to ask. It was clear they had been caught siding with the old man, Jeremy.

Enrico looked down at her. “How did you know about this?”

Was she really only getting to know the Gustin family estate today?

“During the tour, I also took the opportunity to check each employee’s and their family members’ bank transactions,” Paige replied calmly. Any questionable transactions, she investigated further. Some were involved in finding women for Jeremy, others secretly bought escape tools, and some dabbled in various businesses.

It was clear that even after Enrico had taken power, Jeremy never stopped scheming. But unfortunately, he was never capable of achieving anything significant.

“Did you finish all that in one morning?” Jaden asked in surprise, unable to help himself.

This was everyone’s question. Beau and the other employees stared in disbelief. Did she really review all the employees’ and their family members’ bank records while touring the estate? And she even spotted problems? Was she a machine? How could that be possible?

“Yes,” Paige nodded casually.

Jaden then remembered that when Paige achieved an S+ ranking years ago, it was known that she had an eidetic memory.

Enrico hadn’t forgotten that either. He glanced coldly at Jeremy and let out a mocking laugh. “You still had money to bribe the servants?”

“You control things, but there’s still room for him to bribe people. For those below, any extra income is better than none,” Paige said as she glanced at Jeremy. Then she gave an order: “Beau, I saw a small house near the hot spring. Please move the old master there. His health isn’t good, so he should stay and rest quietly from now on.”

Upon hearing this, Jeremy’s eyes widened, glaring at her. “How dare you!”

Enrico had only dared to confine him to the estate, but she was planning to imprison him completely in a small house?

“What doesn’t she dare to do?” Enrico said coldly, his gaze dark and threatening. “You should be thanking her. Otherwise, you’d already be dead.”

She wanted to protect him, make sure he followed the will. He’d listen to her.

“You ungrateful wretch! How could I ever have agreed to let you be born!” Jeremy stood there, his face ashen. Ultimately, this man had been defeated by his own son.

“Young Master, please don’t-” Beau, the housekeeper, knelt on the ground, heavily bowing his head. His voice trembled with pain. “After all, you are father and son. If things go this far, Mrs. Annie won’t rest easy in the afterlife. She always hoped for peace within the family…”

“How dare you speak!” Enrico gritted his teeth and moved to kick him, but Paige stepped in to stop him. She looked down at the trembling housekeeper. “Beau, when the eldest and second young masters were sent to Rose Estate, you should have realized that not all family bonds can lead to a happy ending. You reap what you sow.”

Beau froze, his pain deepening.

“I acknowledge that you are a longtime servant of the Gustin family,” Paige continued. “If you wish to leave now, I will offer you compensation. The same goes for all of you.”

Paige glanced at the crowd. “But if you choose to stay, remember this: your previous behavior will not be tolerated in the Gustin estate from now on.”

As soon as she finished, several sharp-minded servants stepped forward, bowing deeply. “We pledge our loyalty to the young madam.”

Paige smiled slightly.

Immediately, more people followed suit, bowing and declaring, “Young madam, we are willing to stay.”

“We are willing to stay!”

“We are willing to stay!”

Enrico stood there, looking at the group of bowed servants. For a moment, he didn’t know whether to be angry or amused. Apparently, the young master’s role wasn’t needed here anymore.

“Good. Just remember, if I find any more deception, it won’t be as simple as a dismissal next time. Do you understand?” Paige said.

“Understood!” they shouted with extra vigor. After all, a woman who could review all their bank records in half a day and lock up the old master in a small house-who would dare to deceive her?

Paige then turned her attention back to Beau, still kneeling. “Beau, stand up. You’re too old to be kneeling to us.”

Beau remained on his knees. Hearing her words, he raised his tearful eyes to Jeremy, seemingly lost in thought. “Master, why don’t you just admit your mistakes to the young master and madam? In the end, it really was your fault…”

Jeremy’s face turned even more sour. But even now, he showed no sign of bowing his head. He looked away, determined never to admit defeat to Enrico, the son he had long abandoned.

Seeing this, Beau had nothing more to say. He bowed deeply to Enrico and Paige once again. “I will stay and serve the young master and madam. Whatever the young madam says, I will follow. I have no other concerns.”

Enrico cast him a dark look but said nothing, only ordering Jaden to take Jeremy away.

“I’ll leave on my own!” Jeremy left in utter disgrace.

Paige watched him go. She knew that Jeremy realized he had no way out, but he was too used to holding his head high. He could never bow down or admit his crimes. No matter-he would have plenty of time in that small house to reflect on the past, and on Annie, the woman he had betrayed so completely.C0ntent © 2024 (N/ô)velDrama.Org.

When Paige looked away, Beau stood up, wiping his eyes. He raised his voice, “Alright, those of you with higher positions, hand over your keys and documents. The financial records of the estate need to be reviewed by the young madam.”

“Yes.”

“Young madam, I have mine with me. Please look them over first. If there’s anything wrong, I will correct it!”

A few people rushed forward with their documents, eager to please Paige.

The Gustin estate had truly changed hands!

The new leader had arrived, and if they didn’t make themselves known now, when would they?

“Young madam, I’ve been thinking of making some changes to the estate’s land. I have a few proposals-would you like to hear them?” Another group rushed forward, surrounding Paige and speaking non-stop.

Enrico, pushed aside by the crowd, stood on the outskirts, now separated from Paige by what felt like a vast galaxy.

“…”

Enrico stood there, his expression dark and menacing. In the past, if the young master had shown this kind of anger, people would have been shaking with fear. But after witnessing today’s events, everyone knew who to flatter now.

“Young madam reigns supreme!”

“Young madam is invincible!”

And so, Enrico was left completely ignored.

Beau stood nearby, glanced at Enrico, and couldn’t help but feel a little sympathetic. “Young master, why don’t you go ahead and have your meal?”
