7 Chapter 7: Punishing John

After Elizabeth hung up satisfactorily her father still loves her the most she thought, a knock came and John entered.

Seeing him Elizabeth become cold and said, "I remember that I arranged you as the main butler of house, right?"

"yes" John nodded his head and looked Elizabeth with a pair of eyes. She seems to be somehow different. Thinking about it, John could not help but think:

Has she found something?

Her looking for me suddenly is not right?

Is she alert?

Many questions surged up in his mind and he became nervous inside but remain a calm posture outside. His palm was sweating already.

"Listen up, from now on, you should report me daily about the activities at house and also hand me over a list of the servant at home. Do you hear it?" Elizabeth said with cold eyes.

"....." John was startled, but when he looked at Elizabeth again, he found that today she had an imposing aura around her, and he did not dare to speak any rash words.

"Are you an idiot?" Elizabeth sat on the bed and crossed her arms across her chest.

"Got it, young miss" John was also a quick-witted person, hearing Elizabeth's words, he replied quickly. If he is not good he cannot hold his position for so long in the mansion.

"Although I have not paid attention before, it did not mean I will not in the future. Be sure that nothing is wrong otherwise, I am still capable of firing you. You know that" Elizabeth warns him. As she had not thought to alert her enemy yet.

"Young Miss..... You...." John was startled, the Smith Mansion's job was too good! The master was generous and many people have their eye on his post. How could he want to leave?

"I know your goal very well. If you are smart, then stop using your tricks and be loyal to Smith Mansion" saying this Elizabeth was already giving him the last chance.

"Young Miss, you, you misunderstood... I ...." John's palm was drenched with sweat, and when he met with Elizabeth's gaze, he bowed her head showing a guilty conscience.

Elizabeth stood up, gazing out the window, and ordered in a cold voice, "Go out."

"yes .... yes, Young Miss" John left Elizabeth's room and walked to the end of the hallway picks his phone, called Lucy, and declined to help her for some time as suspicion is raised in Elizabeth's hearts'.

He also called a mysterious number, "Master Elizabeth seems changed."

The other side answered coldly, "Just keep an eye on her and don't let anyone doubt you."

"ok master" with that the call ended.

It seemed that Elizabeth was not someone he could afford to neglect, he thought himself those words, and the strong aura field did not seem like the cheerful person she had been in the past.

Hearing the sound of the door closing, Elizabeth let out a long breath. Earlier she could tell that John is not an easygoing person and cannot be trusted but if he dared to betray her she will not spare him. Closing her eyes, she recalled her school days. A soft and beautiful face appeared before her eyes.

"Hello, my name is Lucy. What a coincidence! We are on the same table. Can I be good friends with you?"

Elizabeth suddenly opened her eyes, which were filled with anger surging in her heart.

Good friend? Lucy, you think you are worthy? In this life, she will not be a fool to take those mere situations from her high school life to college as a coincidence. How can so many coincidences happen altogether? First School then College. It is all well planned.

A conspiracy!

She took several breaths to calm herself down. She walked to the side of the window and tried to relax, a man's face appeared in her mind. Thinking about this person, Elizabeth frowned.

She was the one who let him down. However, such an arrogant person not only did not find trouble with her but even reached out to be with her during her most painful times to encourage her to live.

Unfortunately, at that time, she had already made up her mind to perish those two scumbags and ignores him.

If she had a chance in this life, she would be good for him.

At dinner, her father informs him about the banquet after a week of days.

If she remembers correctly that day her father announced her to choose an eligible candidate for marriage but she rejected his good intentions and left the banquet early but In this life, she will not let her father down.

She said "okay" and informs him starting tomorrow she will check Mansion's servant and also came to pick him up in the afternoon alongside with her studies.

Harris felt proud and was delighted in his heart. His joyful look cannot escape Elizabeth's eyes and she felt heartache she need to be more obedient to her father. He had lost his expectation of her but she will prove him wrong.
