Chapter 472 Who Dare to Hit
Maria's gaze fell on Lauren, then on the small bottle in her hand, and she sneered, "How cheap! Miss Lola would never use such a thing, but you all treat it like a treasure."
"If Miss Abella gave me a blade of grass, I'd be happy! I'd treasure it!" Lauren was moved by Miss Abella's gesture today, and her confidence was boosted. "If you're not happy, go complain to Mr. Medici and Mrs. Medici!"
Maria's face darkened a hint of anger in her eyes.
"Miss Abella saw that I wasn't feeling well and kindly gave me some medicine, but you all misunderstood, thinking I was being bribed. Now, you want to drive me out of the Medici family! Go ahead, see if they will listen to you," Lauren said.
Maria never expected Lauren to become so sharp-tongued. "It seems someone has supported you, giving you all this confidence."
"Yes, I have Miss Abella supporting me. What about it? Don't like it? Go talk to her!" Lauren turned to Maria. "Miss Lola has been sending you gifts all these years, right? You've accepted them for eighteen years, and I've only received a couple! If anyone's leaving, it should be you! What else can you do besides bullying others?"
"Lauren, don't go too far. Maria has been with me since we were kids, like family. Please apologize to her immediately!" Lola said.
With Lola speaking up, Maria confidently looked at Lauren with disdain.
"I haven't done anything wrong; why should I apologize?" Lauren countered.
"So now none of you respect me? Fine, I'm not satisfied with your service. Leave this house immediately. I'll explain the situation to my parents. Pack your things and go!" Lola shouted.
Lauren became even angrier. "The ones who pay me are Mr. Medici and Mrs. Medici. Unless they ask me to leave, no one can make me take a step out of this house!"
"You..." Lola was clearly infuriated. This servant was too arrogant!
"You dare to disrespect Miss Lola! Celeste, Linda, what are you waiting for? Grab her!" Maria rolled up her sleeves and walked towards Lauren. "Today, I'll teach you a lesson for Miss Lola!"
Celeste and Linda, being Maria's people, immediately grabbed Lauren's hands. Lauren couldn't break free and looked at them angrily.
"Is there no justice? Mr. Medici and Mrs. Medici are still here. Even if there's a lesson to be taught, it's not your place to do it!" Lauren exclaimed.
Maria raised her hand, about to slap her.
"Let's see who dares." A cold voice came from behind the crowd.
Everyone turned to look and saw Abella returning from the garden, her expression cold. Celeste and Linda were a bit intimidated, and under Abella's aura, they silently let go of Lauren.
"Miss Abella, you're just in time." Maria, seeing Abella, was not afraid but rather assertive. "Lauren has been bullying Lola. As her sister, shouldn't you do something?"
"You have no right to tell me what to do in this house." Abella didn't even look at Maria. "Get out of the way."
Maria felt ashamed and angry.
"Lauren, you may leave first," Abella said.
As soon as Abella spoke, Lola said, "No, Abella, she can't leave. She was disrespectful to Maria today and challenged me. If we let her go like this, won't all the servants be able to trample on me and Maria in the future?!"
Abella looked into her eyes and sarcastically said, "Your so-called Maria has been disrespectful more than once. I still have the video from last time. Should I kick her out, too?"
Lola's face turned pale, and she suddenly remembered that Maria had deliberately spilled oil to make Abella fall, and Abella had the surveillance footage.
At that time, Abella said that if she ever found out about any more malicious acts behind her back, she would hand the surveillance over to the police, tell her parents, or post it online.
Abella also said, "Do you think you can get away with it if your people want to harm me? Will our parents believe you or believe me?"
Maria thought of this, and she was obviously a little uneasy. At that time, she begged Abella not to tell Mr. Medici and Mrs. Medici, saying that she was not afraid of being fired but afraid of implicating Miss Lola and affecting her future interests.
Lauren finally understood why Miss Abella hadn't handed over the evidence at the time but chose to keep it in her hands.
At that time, Miss Abella said that this evidence could only prove that Maria had malicious intent. If Maria insisted on this matter being her own idea and had nothing to do with Lola, Lola would bring up the affection she had with her parents since she was a child or cry in front of the old people at home or in front of her brothers.
At most, it was just a servant being fired!
Lola, to a large extent, would not be kicked out!
At most, she would be punished a little.
But in the hands of Miss Abella, this thing was equivalent to a handle, which could play a role in warning them. If they were not afraid of death, they would definitely find a way to threaten Miss Abella to delete it. When they were in a hurry, they would make mistakes. By then, the mistakes would be too great, and it would not be just a matter of being kicked out.
Now, looking back, Lauren had to admire Miss Abella for that time. Abella was so calm and far-sighted!
At that moment, two little maids came crying to find Abella.
"Miss Abella, Miss Abella!"
Abella turned around and found that both of their eyes were red-rimmed and couldn't help but ask, "What's wrong?"
"They're too much!" Ophelia pointed to Celeste and Linda, crying with grievance. "They rely on Miss Lola and Maria to support them, and they've cut up all my clothes! Look!"
The clothes in her hand had been cut beyond recognition, and this was not the first time!
"And my newly bought skincare products were thrown into the trash by them! I just sent a WhatsApp to question them, and they said it was them, and they asked what I could do to them!" Riley said angrily.
Riley showed the chat records to Abella, her face full of anger and grievance.
Celeste and Linda did not expect these two newcomers to come and complain to Miss Abella in front of them, and they were instantly furious!
"Now that the evidence is conclusive, there is nothing more to say. This family does not need you to stay," Abella announced.
Hearing Abella say this, Celeste couldn't help but speak like Lauren. She said, "Miss Abella, the one who pays me is Mr. Medici and Mrs. Medici. Unless they let me go, no one can make me take a step out of this house! Including you, it's not okay!"
Lola and Maria secretly rejoiced. Finally, someone could stand up to Abella, and they would reward Celeste when this was over.
"Okay." Abella took out her phone and called Mrs. Medici in front of them and even put the call on loudspeaker.
"Mom, are you awake?"
"Abella, I just woke up; what's the matter with you?"
