Devoted Love:The Billionaire's Precious Wife novel Chapter 627

Chapter 627: Chapter 627

"Mr. Collins, I honestly have no idea what you’re talking about," Martha stubbornly insisted. "I’m getting on in years, and my memory isn’t what it used to be. If you’re accusing me of something, at least remind me of what I did or said. Otherwise, I honestly don’t know what you’re referring to."

Seeing her refusal to admit any wrongdoing, Hunter replied coldly, "It seems like you’ve been bullying Rose behind my back, in addition to what happened in that video. Pack your things, Martha. Serena is all grown up now. She doesn’t need you anymore."

Martha was taken aback by Hunter’s words. Before she could react, he had already hung up the phone.

Hunter was firing her?

He was kicking her out of the house?!

Martha couldn’t believe what she had heard. It took her a while to recover from the shock before she could call Hunter back.

Hunter didn’t pick up her calls.

After a few failed attempts, Martha, trembling, sent Hunter a voice message.

"Mr. Collins, I’ve been loyal and diligent in this house for eighteen years. Now you want to fire me just like that?

What exactly happened that led to such a severe misunderstanding? I can explain."

Five minutes passed.

Half an hour passed.

Hunter didn’t respond. Not even a single punctuation mark.

Martha clutched her phone, her heart pounding.

Hunter must have seen that video. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have decided to fire her so abruptly!

She remembered the incident, which still made her restless.

It was a long time ago.

Holly, one of the maids, had just finished washing the garden’s pavement. She maliciously spilled two buckets of cooking oil on the wet ground, hoping to send Rosemary sprawling when she returned home from work.

Under the sunlight, the large area of oil looked just like water, blending perfectly with the other puddles on the ground. Unless someone looked closely, it was hard to tell which was oil and which was water.

She thought she had executed her plan flawlessly. But half an hour later, Rosemary returned home from work and walked through the garden’s main path into the main house, unscathed.

Martha and Serena were watching from behind the curtains. Both of them couldn’t believe that Rosemary had managed to avoid slipping and had safely reached them.

Rosemary told Serena that Mr. McMillian was waiting outside the house, wanting to have a word with her.

Serena was overjoyed because back then, she dreamed of even exchanging a few words with Mr. McMillian.

Afraid that Serena might slip, Martha followed her footsteps. Even though they treaded carefully, they inevitably fell.

Serena was the first to slip, and when Martha tried to catch her, she failed and fell as well.

In the end, they were carried into the living room, where they lay on the couch, wailing in pain.

This incident alarmed Mr. and Mrs. Collins.

At first, Mrs. Collins felt distressed over Serena’s injury. But when Holly and Lily implied that the person behind Serena’s fall should be found and pointed the finger at Rose, Mrs. Collins lost her temper.

Martha never expected that Rosemary would be able to recover the deleted surveillance footage!

Who knew what kind of tricks she had learned outside?
