"I want to fire a couple of the staff."
"Which two pests have managed to upset you?" Louisa, sensing Arabella's ill temper, immediately shared her lividity.
"Debby and Daisy," Arabella stated their names without hesitation.
"Did they dare to disrespect you? If so, I won't let them off the hook so easily!"
Debby and Daisy, overhearing the conversation, felt a chill run down their spines.
"Not exactly disrespect, just a propensity for insolence, and they tend to bully the others."
"That's outrageous! I pay them a few thousand dollars a month, not to act high and mighty, disrupting the harmony of my household! Those two numbskulls won't last long in this line of work!"
Angry voices echoed from the phone, along with the sound of Louisa rummaging around her room, "Huh, where did my slippers go?"
It seemed she was about to storm downstairs, likely to confront Debby and Daisy.
The girls panicked, instinctively wanting to flee, but they were blocked by Gloria and Doris.
"Mom, don't worry, I can handle this." Arabella eyed Gloria and Doris calmly, "Since you have no objections, I'll proceed with the dismissal."
"Absolutely, fire them! I'll have a word with them later!" Louisa couldn't find her slippers and muttered to herself, "Bella, remember, you're the apple of your father's and my eye. In this house, you always have the right to fire anyone!"
Arabella hung up the phone and turned to Debby and Daisy, "Did you hear that?"
"We're sorry, Ms. Bella, it was all Martha."
Debby's words were cut off as Martha gave her a harsh twist of the arm, "What nonsense are you spouting?"
"Nothing, I didn't say anything." Debby hung her head.
