Everyone was shocked.
Amelia’s expression changed drastically as if she had just been slapped in the face.
In The Ataraxy, everyone was aware that although she was a housemaid, Jared listened to her more often than not. She was indeed more like one of the owners here.
It could also explain why Janice and Tony remained silent throughout their conversation.
They didn’t expect that Sasha would throw a fit as soon as she got here.
“Mr. Jadeson, I…”
“It’s not your place to tell us how to manage The Ataraxy. You have only been with the family for a few days, and you’re already telling me what to do. This is unacceptable!”
Sure enough, Jared took Amelia’s side. With a sullen expression on his face, he stared at Sasha and began to reprimand her.
Tony and Janice were startled by his words.
“Mr. Jadeson, you…”
“You must be mistaken. Old Mr. Jadeson asked me to come over. I just wanted to know who is in charge here. If you think she can represent everyone here, I will just talk directly to her. And it will save you the hassle, I suppose.”
Unexpectedly, Sasha remained unperturbed despite being insulted.
She gave the enraged Jared a blank look before grabbing the ledger from Tony. After that, she handed it to Amelia.
Oh Lord!
Janice’s eyes widened in astonishment.
Similarly, Tony gasped in shock. Deep down, he couldn’t help but admire Sasha, who cut him off earlier.
Old Mr. Jadeson has found the right person.
“You…” Jared almost exploded with rage.
Amelia, on the other hand, panicked. There was no way she would dare take the ledger. To put it plainly, she was only able to act as she pleased in The Ataraxy because she had Jared’s backing. However, she was basically a nobody in front of Jonathan.
“Madam, you’re giving me a hard time now. I’m sorry for being so nosy. As a housemaid, I’m in no position to meddle in your affairs. I… I deserve to be punished!”
With that, she started to slap herself.
Tony and Janice stood aghast at the sight of that.
On the other hand, Sasha remained indifferent. It was not until Amelia left that she turned to look at Jared, who was glaring at her.
“Mr. Jadeson, it seems that the housemaid doesn’t have a say here, so I have no choice but to deal with you. When will your children be coming over?”
“What if I refuse to let them come?”
As a murderous aura emanated from him, it was clear that he wouldn’t play along with her so easily.
Sasha merely shrugged her shoulders.
Tony immediately began to speak up to break the tense silence.
“Mr. Jadeson, please calm down. Madam just follows Old Mr. Jadeson’s order. Please don’t mind her. If you chase her out, I’m afraid Old Mr. Jadeson would make his way here personally. If that happens, things will surely get out of hand.”
Nice move!
Seeing that Jared refused to cooperate with Sasha, Tony had no choice but to mention Jonathan in the hope of easing the tense situation.
Hearing that, Jared’s face turned pale.
He could disregard anyone in the Jadeson family except for Jonathan. There was no way he would dare to offend the latter.
A heavy silence fell upon The Ataraxy. Shortly after, all his children from Jade Court, Elk Court, and Cameo House arrived at The Ataraxy.
Sitting in the yard, Sasha quietly watched them walk in one after another.
“Sasha, the one who takes the lead is Jocelyn from Jade Court. Sad to say, she is the only one left in her family. The one who follows behind her is Shirley from Elk Court. Well, her family only comprises of her and her son.
Janice, who sat next to Sasha, was briefing her on each family member.
Hearing her explanation, Sasha nodded.
In fact, she had already learned of the things that happened in Jade Court and Elk Court.
Charles from Jade Court had destroyed the Hayes family. Consequently, his entire family was killed by Sebastian, leaving Jocelyn a widow. To her, it was pretty fair.
At that moment, the mother and son from Elk Court walked over while staring at Sasha with hatred in their eyes.
Sasha found them amusing as she gazed at them.
You should be relieved that you and your son have been exempted from punishment. I don’t understand why you hold a grudge against me. What a joke!
Lastly, Jared’s youngest son, who came from Cameo House, looked nervous and smiled awkwardly when he saw Sasha.
Sasha then grinned at him.
“Okay! Now that all of you are here, please allow me to brief you all on the purpose of Madam coming here. In the future, Oceanic Estate will be managed by Madam. Hence, Old Mr. Jadeson asked me to show her around so that she gets to know the members of the Jadesons.”
Tony came forward and gave a short preamble.
