The Billionaire’s Pet

Chapter 15: I Don't Want to Make Any Friends

“I'll help you, there's still some time before work starts.” “No need! I prefer to be alone; I'm a very reclusive person, and I don't want to make any friends. Zheng Hao, I hope you can understand what I mean.” Zheng Hao's smile froze on his face, and then he smiled awkwardly and said, 'It's okay, I understand. You go ahead with your work, I won't bother you in the future.' Watching Zheng Hao's lonely figure, Xia Yihan sighed inwardly. The butler was always much stricter with her than with others. Any area she wiped had to be done with a white cloth, and not a speck of dust or stain was allowed. As she was wiping, footsteps sounded at the door, and soon she heard the butler's voice with a hint of anger: 'Xia Yihan, come out here! Get to the hall!' Indeed, it wasn't so easy to remain calm. She steadied herself, put the cloth aside, stood up, and walked out. The maids were all in the hall, and unlike usual, they weren't standing in formation. Fang Lina, Zhao Tianai, and Sun Mengmeng had "schadenfreude" written all over their faces. Liu Xiaojiao and Jiu Jiu looked somewhat worried, and also seemed to have the sentiment of being angry but not daring to speak out. Xia Yihan stood in front of the butler, calmly waiting for him to speak. 'I heard you seduced the staff here?' the butler asked coldly. Xia Yihan raised her eyes and said indifferently, 'You also said it's hearsay, which is unfounded rumor.' 'Rumor?' Fang Lina raised her voice to question, and then continued, 'If it weren't for your seduction, would someone speak up for you in front of so many people? You seduced the Crown Prince, and also seduced...' 'Enough!'

The butler raised his hand to stop Fang Lina's words, and with a stern face, he said to Xia Yihan, 'With so many witnesses now, there's no room for your sophistry. Pack up and leave immediately!' This time he was taking a risk; even if Mr. Ye blamed him, at most he would deduct some of his salary, he wouldn't be fired. He couldn't let his nephew be entangled by her. Xia Yihan held her head high, her attitude neither humble nor arrogant. 'I won't leave unless Mr. Ye tells me to!' 'How shameless! Still clinging on and not leaving,' Fang Lina sneered with a curl of her lips. The butler didn't pay attention to Fang Lina and said into his earpiece, 'Zhang Feng, Li Ping, come to the main house immediately!' Soon, two security guards ran into the hall, waiting for the butler's orders. The butler's face grew even darker, and there was a hint of ruthlessness in it. 'Xia Yihan, do you want to leave on your own, or shall I have them throw you out?' Things had come to this point; with Mr. Ye absent, the butler was the master here. It hadn't been easy for her to come in, and if she left now, she might never have the chance to come back in. The image of Mo Xiaojun's tragic appearance flashed before Xia Yihan's eyes; she couldn't let him die with regrets, absolutely not. She took a deep breath, raised her head, and said very seriously to the butler, 'I'm sorry, I was wrong, I won't...' 'Apologizing is useless! Drag her out!' With the butler's order, Zhang Feng and Li Ping each rushed towards her from one side. 'You can't do this!' Xia Yihan tried to reason while dodging backwards, 'Even if I leave, I will find Mr. Ye, and then you will be responsible.' 'Even if Mr. Ye finds out, he wouldn't care about a little maid like you! Stop scaring me!' 'You two, drag her out immediately!' As soon as the butler finished speaking, a very indifferent question came from behind: 'What happened?'
