Chapter 238
“She’s been in a similar situation in the past; maybe that’s why she wants others to go through worse.”
Sophia smiled when she heard their words. She said, “Stella, dad has always taught us to be forgiving.
Maya’s already apologized, so you should give her a smaller punishment if you’re still angry. Think of it
as giving her a small punishment to prevent her from doing something worse. Besides, so many people
are around. It’ll look bad if you keep this up.”

‘If I back down and let the matter rest, I’ll surely be labeled as someone who’s inhumane and oppresses
the elderly,’ she thought.
Stella pursed her lips. Suddenly, she said, “Maya, you said I’m dismissing you because of Keegan. Then,
tell everyone specifically why and let them decide if my punishment for you is too harsh.
Maya was startled.
‘What am I supposed to say? That I purposefully placed the contraceptive she had thrown. away at an
obvious place so that Dahlia and the old lady would see it? The first clause in the contract was not to
disclose my employer’s privacy. So I couldn’t tell them even when I was asked to do so by Dahlia. After
all, I signed the contract with Keegan. Discloser of privacy is a deal breaker in this profession,’ she
thought.
Maya stammered for a while before she finally said, “Well… Well, I forgot to take out the trash…”
‘She sure knows how to understate the issue,’ thought Stella.
Stella knew she did not dare to tell the truth, so she went along with what Maya said.

“Keegan is a germaphobe; his allergies get triggered when he sleeps in an unclean environment. Half a
year ago, you didn’t carry out mite removal on time, leading to Keegan getting rashes all over. He was in
the hospital for a week. Back then, I had reminded you to carry out a disinfection every two days. And
what did you do?”
It was true that Keegan had gotten rashes half a year ago due to dust mites; everyone in the company
knew about it. Besides that, his rashes were indeed caused by the unclean bedsheets he had slept on.
Maya’s face turned red.
‘My son visited me at Keegan’s house before Keegan got his allergies. Back then, Keegan and Stella
stayed over at Keegan’s grandparent’s house, so I let my son stay over. My son liked how luxurious the
master bedroom was, so he slept there for a night. Who would’ve thought that Keegan would get rashes
all over his body after sleeping on that bed the following day?’ she thought.
