Chapter 19 Chapter 15 Abandoned(2)

"Do you want to take out the things in your pocket on your own or do you need some help?"

The maid kneeled at once.

"MsEdwards, I..." She shook and stammeredWith a shaking hand, she took out a necklace from her pocket. "MsEdwards...didn't want this and gave it to me..."

She turned to Rose and said faster, "MsEdwards, you are nice and generousI broke the rules and shouldn't have taken this."

She threw the necklace at Rose as if it was a hot potato. "Please forgive meI am just a nobodyDon't let MrRoach get me wrong!"

Lying to Judson meant serious punishments.

If she was caught stealing, she would be sent to the police and get punishedThen she would be blacklisted and fail to get a new job.

The maid believed that Judson didn't see her stealIt was probably because he saw the shape of the necklace which was easy to notice under the thin clothing.

***

Judson sneered and asked Rose, "You gave it to her?"

Rose looked calm. "Maria is quite a clever liar

Maybe she shouldn't be just a maid."

Maria Bill, the maid, put the necklace in her pocket secretly as she cleaned the roomAnd she was caughtHowever, she reacted quickly and shifted the blame to Rose at once.

People working here impressed Rose with their shamelessness.

Maria was resentful. "MsEdwards, you are slandering meYou said these were craps and told me to take what I wanted..."

She waved her hands at Judson. "MrRoach, MsEdwards can help me with just a sentenceBut she slandered me as a thiefShe is a bad girlI work for youBut she slandered meIt means that she despises you!"

Maria was not bold enough to slander Rose in front of Judson before.

But people in the Imperial Garden had got the news.

Rose offended Lillian and was forced to break up with Judson.

Men were not loyal.

He would abandon RoseSo Maria made light of her and slandered her.

Maybe Rose was even less important than an old maid like her to Judson.

Maria seemed respectful

But she felt carried away.

As a maid, she didn't expect to ride over the former hostess.

But Rose frowned and didn't even look at herShe nodded at Judson casually. "Everything is hereYou can do whatever you wantI gotta go."

She felt disgustedShe didn't want to waste her time on a necklace.

It was not worth it to waste her time on people or things that were not important.
