At two in the afternoon, Fane arrived home.
Five to six maids, the cleaners, the cook, and four security guards from both shifts were already standing in the yard. There were at least a dozen of them.
After a round of introductions, Fane looked at Fiona and asked, "What now? Almost time, right?"
"Yes, that's correct!" Fiona nodded satisfactorily. It was the first time she felt like a boss—she would be able to instruct servants in the future! She had not felt this way in more than five years.
"Oh, all you must listen to Jenny’s instructions in the future, alright?" After some thought, Fane said to the servants, "I n the future, Jenny will let you know how much you should be paid, and she’ll also be instructing you to go to the market as well a s other tasks." “Me?" Jenny was surprised at the flattery.
Fiona nodded. “Yes, you'll be the head housekeeper. As for your salary, I’ll double i t!" she said seriously.
"Yes, Master!" Jenny nodded, her heart filled with glee. She felt that she had made the right decision and followed the right master. "Thank you again, master!"
"Ah, you're welcome!" Fane said happily.
"Hang on, Fane, you just hired a few security guards to watch the home. What about a bodyguard? The bodyguard is very important. Without a bodyguard, what would I do if I ran into some gangsters?
What if they rob me of my belongings? I'm still thinking about my jade bracelet and all the money that I was robbed of. 1 still feel really uncomfortable!" Fiona remembered the past and said unhappily, "I s it because you found that bodyguard salaries are not cheap, so you're reluctant t o hire one?"
