Chapter 74: I Don’t Get You For Nothing
Leaning against the backrest of the couch, Lariette pulled her legs close to her chest. She rested her chin on her knees, her eyes still looking at the laptop.
Indeed, this was a very childish yet nasty move from Stephanie’s side. Lariette doubted the former’s mean high school girl behavior ever phased out.
"I’ll think how to deal with her later," murmured Lariette, faintly audible to Ruediger, "Maybe, she got bribed. Or, threatened."
"You’re right. Those can be the reasons."
No matter what, Lariette planned to check how the helper was in cahoots with Stephanie. A few simple questions after presenting this hardcore evidence would be sufficient.
Every staff who worked for the Delaney and the Elsher family knew how well-pampered Stephanie was. Thus, it also meant they were aware that Lariette’s position was beneath the young lady.
None of them had blatantly shown their disregard for Lariette because Chairman Delaney backed her up. But, there were instances of some helpers sneering at her or mishandling her belongings before.
Ruediger nodded once, agreeing with Lariette. He also thought handling the female helper shouldn’t be the top priority.
"Still, we need to inform your grandfather soon. I’m worried she’ll try something again tomorrow. Or, she’ll inform your next movements to that Stephanie."
"I’ll tell Grandpa tomorrow. I’m worried about that too."
Lariette understood what Ruediger meant. She disliked imagining how the female helper would sneakily tell Stephanie about her movements.
