Chapter 393 Women Go Bad When They Are Rich

Christina wanted to head to the dining room, but there were too many antiques along the way. Ancient, mysterious patterns were delicately carved on them.

“There’s a cockroach!” someone shouted.

Right then, several female housekeepers screamed. The peaceful atmosphere turned chaotic at once.

Christina was startled too. Seeing the cockroach crawling to her at lightning speed, she couldn’t stop herself from hopping in place.

Then, the sound of something shattering floated into her ears.

“It’s gone now. Calm down, everyone!” The gardener got rid of the cockroach with a broom.

Just as they let out a sigh of relief, they heard Raymond’s terrified voice. “Who broke Mr. Hadley’s antique?”

Those at the scene flitted their eyes to the shard in the corner. A carved vase was broken, and it didn’t seem like it could be mended.

At the sight of that, the housekeepers were so scared that they almost cried.

“What should we do? This looks expensive.”

“We’re doomed. I don’t think I can compensate for it even if I pay with my pension.”

וד

“Who broke it? Hurry up and admit it. I’ll talk to Mr. Hadley on your behalf,” Raymond persuaded.

They exchanged glances with one another. Everyone was scared out of their wits earlier. How were they supposed to know who broke the vase?

Perhaps someone accidentally broke it after all the pushing and bumping.

“What happened?” A deep voice rang out, making the living room fall into silence in an instant.

Raymond walked to the stairs and said hesitantly, “Mr. Hadley, we… We accidentally broke your treasured vase just now.”

“Which one?” Sebastian asked at the side.

Instead of saying anything, Raymond pointed to the broken vase. He didn’t know much about antiques, so he had no idea what it was called.
