Chapter 216

Keegan wondered, ‘Maya was on vacation yesterday, and she didn’t come to work until noon today.

How could she possibly know what happened last night?”

Maya was startled as she realized that she had let something slip. She quickly averted her gaze and said, “II heard it from your mother.”

“Mom talked to you about this?” Keegan asked with a frown.

Maya stammered, “Sh-She was in a bad mood today… She accidentally mentioned this when she was talking to me, and I remembered it.”

‘Mom wouldn’t share our family’s private affairs with Maya, even if she didn’t like Stella. How could she talk to Maya about this? Maya’s story is full of holes! Stella isn’t stupid enough to leave an empty pillbox on the table, especially one from a few days ago.” As he thought this over, Keegan’s face darkened.

Maya, go to the HR department tomorrow morning to settle your salary and don’t come back again.”

Maya was stunned. She asked, “Are you firing me?”

Keegan gave her a cold glance. “You can resign on your own, and I’ll have HR compensate you for six months’ salary. The duration should be long enough for you to find a new job.

Maya panicked. Keegan did not look like he was joking.

She anxiously said, “You can’t fire me. Your mother sent me to take care of you, and I did nothing wrong. You have no right to fire me!”

“No right?” Keegan seemed to have heard some kind of joke. He let out a cold smirk. “Maya, your file is with my company, which means you’re an employee. What’s the problem when I fire an employee?”

At that moment, Maya actually felt that Keegan had the same facial expression as Stella.

Stella had said the same thing that day.

However, at that time, Maya did not take Stella’s threatening words seriously.

Maya had worked as a housemaid in the Kane residence for over a dozen years. Moreover, she was sent by Dahlia. Hence, Stella did not dare to do anything to Maya.

However, Keegan was different. He was the real helm of the Vinci Rivera Group. Even Dahlia, his mother, had to rely on Keegan to maintain her current luxury lifestyle.

No one could help Maya if Keegan wanted to fire her.

At that moment, Maya truly felt fear.

She could no longer care about other things.

THUD!

She knelt in front of Keegan.

“Mr. Kane, I made a mistake. Please don’t fire me. I’m the breadwinner of my family. I can’t lose this job. I’m sorry if I have done anything not good enough. I’ll apologize to your wife as well. I have taken care of you for so many years. Please let me stay Keegan put down the glass. “Maya, I don’t like to say it twice. If you continue like this, I can only seek the property management to ask you to leave. And, that won’t be pretty.

Maya was trembling as she was clearly aware that Keegan’s words were not a threat. He would really let the property management kick her out.

Working as a housekeeper or nanny for high-society families was a coveted profession. These employers were known to offer top-tier salaries, great perks, and light workloads. And, if they were especially generous, they might even throw in luxury items and hefty bonuses on special occasions.

Therefore, a good reputation was crucial in this industry. Royalpark Villa, where Maya was currently employed, was home to some of the city’s most prominent figures. If she were to be evicted by the property management today, finding a comparable job in the future would be nearly impossible.
