After a moment of consideration, I decided to take a look at Summer’s WhatsApp chat messages. After putting her to sleep, I headed back to my room to read her conversation with Stella in private. Seeing as to how Summer was not the best at typing, the chat contained mostly voice messages. There wasn’t anything special, but I noticed that Stella had never said no to Summer. She would always fulfill the latter’s wishes, especially things I often didn’t allow Summer to do. In particular, Stella had secretly bought Summer sweet, edible things more than five times in the past two weeks alone.

I truly believed that every mother would understand why I was so agitated at that moment. Without a minute to waste, I immediately called Stella on WhatsApp, anger boiling within me as I did so.

As expected, the woman picked up the phone quickly. Her tone of voice was soft and gentle, loaded with affection, “Summer, you want to chat with me for a while more, right?”

“Ms. Collins,” I said coldly, not bothering to try hiding my displeasure.

The woman on the other side of the line fell silent for a second. When she spoke, there was a complete about-turn on her tone. She said respectfully and submissively, “Mrs. Fuller, why are you still awake? It’s so late…”

Summer, it was pointless for me to show her an ounce of respect. Despite my displeasure towards her, I had to still handle the situation in a formal way. My voice became harsher than earlier as I spat out, “Please bear in mind that your job is to solely assist Ashton with the company. I don’t want anyone to disturb Summer in the future.
