Chapter 665 Airplane Incident
“Miss Cecilia, please don’t cry. Even though Scarlet can’t stay, you can keep in touch with her privately…” Content rights by NôvelDr//ama.Org.
Cecilia raised her tearful eyes and gazed at the maid in front of her, realizing that this person was the one who had stood up for her before-Lotus.
“Lotus…” Cecilia decided to embrace her and let out her cries.
Cecilia already felt isolated in this household, so having Lotus by her side was a source of comfort…
Lotus didn’t know how to console her, so she could only gently pat Cecilia’s back. “Miss Cecilia, I’m here. From now on, I’ll take good care of you…”
Meanwhile, Isabella sat on the airplane. A maid approached her, carrying a glass of lemon water and some snacks.
“Miss Isabella, please have something to eat.”
Isabella looked up from her laptop and spoke calmly, “You don’t need to attend to me. Go rest.”
Unexpectedly, Eloise had arranged for a maid named Sheila to care for Isabella during the journey…
“Miss Isabella, I’m not tired. I want to stay by your side.” Sheila remained standing, maintaining a respectful demeanor. “You can focus on your work; if you need anything, just let me know.”
“Then, please sit down. Don’t stand.”
Sheila hesitated briefly, uncertain due to the rules, and whispered, “It goes against the regulations.”
“Dad,” Cecilia said, her eyes filled with tears as she looked at Williams.
Throughout her life, no matter what Cecilia asked for, Williams always agreed without hesitation. He was always the most accommodating to negotiate with.
Williams sighed. “Cecilia, I can’t agree to this… Scarlet deliberately tripped and fell over the doorstep, and she had planned to harm Isa… that’s already a crime!”
“Dad, this situation isn’t as serious as you think. Scarlet was just concerned about me, seeing that I was being excluded, and she wanted to express her anger on my behalf, but she went about it the wrong way…” Cecilia pleaded, kneeling before Williams. “Dad, please, I’ve never asked you for anything my whole life…”
Scarlet meant too much to her!
“Cecilia, we treated you like our own. If you still can’t see the seriousness of the situation and stubbornly believe that Scarlet is more important than family, then it’s your choice!” Eloise turned away, clearly still angry.
Cecilia’s eyes widened in disbelief. Eloise, who used to speak softly and care deeply for her, was saying such things!
“Mom, don’t you want me anymore…” Cecilia’s tears instantly welled up, making her look particularly pitiful. “Are you asking me to leave with Scarlet?”
“Cecilia…” Williams interjected with sympathy, “what we meant was that Scarlet can’t remain in this family.”
“Williams and Eloise, I know I have committed grave sins and no longer have the right to stay… Miss Cecilia, please don’t make things difficult for your Mom and Dad. They were right. From now on, you have to be obedient and listen to your family. Their decisions were correct…”
Tears streamed down Scarlet’s face as she reluctantly looked at Cecilia. “Being able to watch you grow up from a little girl to a young woman was truly more than enough for me.”
Cecilia shook her head, crying. She never imagined that she couldn’t even retain a maid in this household! Then what’s the use of her being the daughter of the Logan family?
“Williams and Eloise, you both haven’t held me accountable and are letting me go just like that. I’m already immensely grateful. Thank you both for caring for and tolerating me for these eighteen years. I have been happy and fulfilled working in this house for eighteen years…”
Scarlet said this solemnly, bowing to them, then stood up and left.
“Scarlet…” Cecilia cried, wanting to stop her, but recalling Eloise’s warning, she could only watch Scarlet with tears in her eyes.
“Miss Cecilia, you have a beautiful smile. Please smile more in the future.” Scarlet bid farewell to everyone and gradually disappeared from Cecilia’s sight.
Cecilia instantly became a tearful mess. She hadn’t even recovered from Lisa depriving her of her inheritance in the jewelry company, and now Scarlet’s left had delivered a heavy blow to her.
Eloise suddenly recalled the incident when she questioned why,the lid of the cooking oil wasn’t tightly closed and why no one cleaned up the spilt oil on the floor. Prior to seeing the surveillance footage, when Eliza and Linda indirectly accused Isa, Scarlet never stepped forward and admitted that she had spilt the oil, allowing Isa to be unjustly blamed by the maid…
It was only after Eloise watched the surveillance footage and probed further that Scarlet pretended her injuries from the fall were too painful, conveniently forgetting that she had spilt the oil herself, citing reasons like old age and forgetfulness…
There were so many inconsistencies back then, but Eloise failed to notice them! She had let Isabella suffer unjustly!
During that time, Scarlet even feigned blame on Linda, shifting all the responsibility onto her…
Eloise never expected this loyal servant of eighteen years to be so deceitful behind her back!
Scarlet had been scheming right under Eloise’s nose, and Eloise remained utterly unaware…
Myra suddenly understood the motive behind Miss Isabella’s actions before.
When Myra asked Miss Isabella, “Why didn’t you show the video of Scarlet unscrewing the bottle cap to Williams and Eloise?” Miss Isabella explained that it would only prove Scarlet’s involvement. If Scarlet insisted that it was her idea and had nothing to do with Miss Cecilia, Cecilia would appeal to the love she had shared with her parents since childhood or cry in front of her family…
At most, Scarlet would have been dismissed. Cecilia would primarily not have been driven out of the house.
“My words are the rules here. Sit.”
Sheila didn’t anticipate Miss Isabella to be so generous. After she sat down, Sheila discreetly observed Isabella. Isabella was remarkable, exuding a cold and pure aura. She seemed much more composed than Miss Cecilia…
“Miss Isabella, may I…”
Before Sheila could complete her sentence, the pilot’s voice crackled through the system, filled with pain and distress.
“Miss Isabella…”
The pilot’s voice sounded weak.
“What’s wrong?”
“I’m feeling unwell…” The pilot’s voice trembled as she admitted she could no longer maintain control of the plane.
