Mike’s eyes were filled with anger as he pounded on the table and chairs, “Fire Wendy from her job and never let her step foot in here again!”
The surrounding servants all lowered their heads, not daring to utter a word, afraid that they would be the next ones to suffer in the next second.
In the next second, Mike breathed a sigh of relief, not knowing if Jane would forgive him this time.
Mike remained silent for a moment, then proceeded to make a phone call to Jane.
Jane had just put April to sleep and was about to attend to Beatrice’s matter when she received a call from Mike. Without hesitation, she answered the phone.
“Jane, I just interrogated those two traitors. They said the housekeeper was bribed by that woman and she foolishly went out to betray us.”
Mike was talking on and on, but Jane didn’t have the time to listen to all of these things.
These reasons were no longer important to her now, Beatrice had hurt April and Jane must make her pay the price.
“Uh, okay.”
Jane replied lightly, and Mike continued speaking.
“I have dismissed and investigated the steward, and those two servants have also been dealt with.”
At this point, Mike fell silent.
Jane probably already knew what Mike meant.
Because Beatrice was the daughter-in-law of the Pansy family, he cannot impose too much punishment on her.
That was why Mike came to tell Jane all this, hoping to settle the matter in this way.
“Those few servants, Wendy, had been by Patrick’s mother’s side for more than ten years. It’s only right for them to leave like this, they deserve it.” Mike sighed again, but Jane frowned.
“Grandpa, I understand what you mean.”
Upon hearing this, Mike raised an eyebrow.
“I know you’re a good child, but she is still Patrick’s mother.”
Mike wanted to continue speaking, but Jane interrupted him.
“This matter cannot be easily brushed aside. The ruler is subject to the law just like the common people. I think, Grandpa, you understand this principle.”
Jane directly rejected Mike’s intentions, her attitude firm.
“I know, but she has been married into the Pansy family for decades, and even if she hasn’t done anything praiseworthy, she has still put in effort…”
“Grandpa, please stop.” Jane frowned and interrupted Mike’s words directly. “My employee is still lying in bed because of her. Not reporting her is the last bit of kindness I have shown her.”
Seeing Jane so determined, Mike had nothing more to say.
Meanwhile, online news about Beatrice was buzzing.
Because Beatrice had the support of the Pansy family, everyone was waiting to see her downfall.
Many people online were condemning Beatrice as a daughter-in-law of a prestigious family, not paying attention to her words and actions and relying on her status to bully others.
For a while, the internet was filled with insults towards Beatrice, completely shattering her gentle and kind image.
However, precisely because Beatrice had the backing of the Pansy family, no one dared to criticize her too much.
In the past, if something had happened, the media would have dug up dirt on her. But now, all they could do was accuse her of bullying.
The Pansy family was powerful and influential, and no one dared to provoke them, so there was no real damage done.
Mike remained silent for a long time. Seeing Jane’s resolute attitude, he had nothing more to say.
What Beatrice had done this time had caught everyone by surprise, including Mike.
It was understandable for Jane not to agree with the situation ending like this. He would try his best to satisfy Jane.
“You wait, I’ll be right over.”
Mike hung up the phone and called Beatrice.
Now there was only one way to calm Jane down.
He had the servants bring Beatrice over. Since Beatrice was currently under house arrest, the servants were under his control.
He got into the car and drove straight to the hospital.
Beatrice was stuffed into the back of another car.
Mike brought Beatrice to the hospital. Since the ward needed to be kept quiet, he didn’t bring many people with him this time.
Jane had been waiting at the door, and she guessed that he would come.
Patrick accompanied her. Since the incident had happened, they had to face it together.
Beatrice wore a reluctant expression, but with Mike present, she could only keep her grievances to herself.
“Jane.”
Seeing Jane, Mike warmly greeted her, “How is your employee? Is she okay?”
After speaking, he glanced at Beatrice beside him.
Beatrice turned her face away, unwilling to look at Jane.
“Thanks to someone, not very well.”
Jane said calmly, undoubtedly giving Beatrice a slap in the face.
Beatrice was so angry that she wanted to explode, but she realized there were cameras around the hospital. Mike and Patrick were watching her closely, so she had no choice but to forcefully suppress her anger.
“What are you still standing there for? Come over here.”
Clearly, Mike’s expression immediately changed, scolding Beatrice to come over. After all, it was disgraceful for their own family member to have done such a thing if it were to be known by others.
“Go, apologize to her.”
With a scolding tone, Mike made Beatrice widen her eyes.
“You want me to apologize to her?”
Clearly, Beatrice was reluctant, staring blankly and standing in place.
Jane also didn’t expect Mike to be so willing, allowing someone like Beatrice to apologize to her employee.
“Hurry up.”
Under the gaze of Patrick and Mike, Beatrice had no choice but to force herself to enter the hospital room.
April had just been awakened by the noise outside the door. As soon as she opened her eyes, she saw Beatrice coming in, and she quickly hid under the covers.
“Don’t come near me!”
“I’m sorry.”
Just as April covered her head with the blanket, she heard Beatrice’s voice apologizing.
She opened her mouth, stunned in place, clearly not expecting Beatrice to apologize to her.
However, Beatrice still had an unwilling expression on her face. After saying those words, without waiting for April to say anything, she turned and left the hospital room.
April stared blankly at Jane, who gave her a smile.
“What else did I tell you on the way?”
After Beatrice came out, Mike put on a stern face and said to her.
“I understand…”
Beatrice stretched her voice, her face full of resentment.
After a while, Jane’s phone rang. She opened it and saw that Beatrice had tweeted.
“I apologize to Miss Sutton. @April”
Unexpectedly, Beatrice directly made a public apology on social media, which surprised Jane.
Jane fell silent. Since Beatrice had gone to this extent, she didn’t want to continue to entangle with her.
Thus, the matter finally settled down.
With the conclusion of the incident, Mike followed through on his previous statement and sent Beatrice abroad.
