The CEO's Empathy Pregnancy Pains

Chapter 320 One Last Lifeline

"Mrs. Smith, there used to be rules about this. Once the servants have retired for the night, we don't ask them to do any more work. You could ask the night shift staff instead. Lexine and the others are really stretched thin, and they've been loyal servants to the Smith family for so long. It's not quite fair to keep ordering them around in the middle of the night."

Benjamin was speaking up for Lexine and the other servants. His attitude was proper, but his tone was weak.

But Scarlett was still unhappy listening to him. She was half-lying on the sofa with a face mask on. Although her expression was unclear, it was evident that her brows were furrowed, and her eyes shot out a fierce glare.

"Benjamin, are you blaming me?"

As soon as she finished speaking, Benjamin quickly shook his head and waved his hands, trying to explain.

But Scarlett wouldn't listen. She just raised her hand to look at her crimson nails, which contrasted with her fair skin, and glanced at Benjamin's humble posture from the corner of her eye. She was extremely pleased, and a smile curled at the corners of her thin lips.

"I know, you're used to working under Mason and always feel that you can make decisions for most of the matters in this house. But Benjamin, have you forgotten that this family is named Smith?"

Upon hearing this, Benjamin realized that things were getting more difficult.

With Scarlett's sarcastic remarks, he knew that if Mason remained bedridden, he wouldn't last long in this house.

Sure enough, Scarlett continued in a slow tone.

"You are Mason's confidant, so it's natural for you to be proud. I understand. It's okay, I will keep you for Mason's sake, but you really can't be the housekeeper anymore."

Benjamin suddenly looked up, meeting her sinister eyes.

Scarlett, with her heavy makeup, slightly curled her lips, staring at Benjamin. Then, her smile slowly faded, and a menacing look appeared in her eyes.

Seeing this, Benjamin was startled.
