Chapter 342 “You!” Martha barked, a sneer on her face. “What did that girl give you to defend her like this?” “In this house, as long as you're a maid, you should address her as Ms. Bella! Do you think you have the right to refer to her as ‘that girl*?” Even if Arabella didn’t give her a penny, she'd still stand up for her. Not for anything else, just because she liked Arabella’s personality and the way she carried herself, unlike Serena, who was all pretense and just plain annoying.

“And Ms. Bella has been really good to you too; how have you repaid her?” Edith walked side by side with her down the corridor, then turned a corner to stand in front of Arabella’s room, whispering, “The master and madam made it clear.. Anyone who messes with Ms. Bella, anyone who has designs on Mr. McMillan, you know what the consequences will be.” After saying that, she knocked on the door and respectfully announced, “Ms. Bella, it's dinner time.” “Heh, some people pick the wrong side, thinking they're so clever!” Martha mocked before knocking on the door in a humble manner, “Serena, dinners ready.” Both doors opened at the same time.
Arabella stepped out just as Serena appeared.
Serena hesitated, reminded of the day's unpleasantness, her resentment flaring up. “Disappointed, aren't you?” Arabella was about to walk past her when she heard this. She chuckled and said, “You really need to get out more. Haven't you heard of this thing called Overwatch in Summerfield?” “Overwatch?” Serena blinked. She had indeed heard of it. It wasn't your average surveillance. It was minuscule, smaller than a grain of rice, but it could see every inch of Summerfield, down to each car's plate number and every person's movement.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmIt was said that it was only used by the highest level of government. Some said it was for improving the quality of life and safety in major cities; others said it was a trial run in Summerfield before it went nationwide to catch criminals: Some even said that a certain part of Summerfield was where the top leaders families lived, hence the need for such security.
Because of its wide coverage, as long as someone wasn't hidden inside a building, their every move on the street was visible! Arabella pulled out her phone and zoomed in on the surveillance feed. “So you were the one who opened the bottle caps?” Serena and Martha looked at the screen to see Martha by the back of a truck, unscrewing two bottle caps, and then pretending to trip when she entered the house, They hadn't expected such detailed surveillance to exist! “Is this you?” Arabella smiled and said, “If your vision is poor and you can’t recognize yourself, | can take this downstairs for everyone to help confirm. Martha immediately fell to her knees in fear and said, “Ms. Bella, I'm sorry. | shouldn't have wronged you.
“What's the point of admitting your mistake now? If this gets into the hands of the police, it's intentional harm. If | had fallen because of it, you'd be looking at at least three years in prison, maybe more if the circumstances were serious. And the entire Collins family would hold you responsible!” Martha trembled with fear. “Ms. Bella, what do you want me to do? As long as you don't tell the madam, I'll do anything!! “That depends on my mood.” Arabella put her phone away and said, “If | catch you pulling any stunts behind my back or bullying Edith, | might just have to hand this over to the police, my parents, or maybe even post it online.” Edith, who was standing at the side, straightened her back, and her gaze hardened at the mention of her name.
“Ms. Bella, | apologize for all the mistakes I've made in the past. | promise | won't repeat them! Please delete that video.” “Delete?” Arabella laughed coldly, saying, “I've already made a backup.
Martha's fear intensified at the news.
