The Enticing CEO’s Chosen Bride

Chapter 1597

The sight of him instantly dampened Addie’s previously buoyant mood. She was so taken aback that her smile

faltered. After a moment of stunned silence, she quickly approached Presley, her face full of anger directed at the

surrounding housemaids. “What on earth are you all doing? This isn’t the place for maid interviews! Come, follow

me to the back”

Seeing Addie’s sudden appearance, the expressions of the housemaids changed visibly. A mix of fear, contempt,

anger, disdain, and disgust crossed their faces.

The sight of such expressions on their faces infuriated Addie, and she quickly dropped her pleasant demeanor She

questioned, “Didn’t you hear me? Are you deaf? Maid interviews belong in the back, now move!” Her tone was

irritable and her words were harsh.

The maids rolled their eyes, “We didn’t intend to work here! We were just here to say goodbye to the people, then

we planned to leave

Addie’s face darkened even more. “Not planning to work here? Then why did you come here in the first place?“c2

“Well, we did intend to work here initially, but who knew what kind of person you were? We’d rather earn less than

be oppressed by you every day! Another maid spoke up, not hiding her disdain for Addie.

The words of the maids and their attitude made Addie livid to the point of nearly exploding.

Addie’s voice grew colder this time, “What do you mean? What oppression are you talking about? I’ve clarified

everything in front of the reporters, and you’re here to stir up trouble? If you don’t want to work, then just leave.

With this attitude, it seems like you won’t obey rules in the future”

At first, her words were a bit unfiltered, but she realized there was Presley, sitting in the living room, and quickly

corrected herself

Addie said. “Sir, I don’t think these servants are genuinely willing to work. If not, we should let them go, and we can

find new ones”

Presley said, “I’m sitting here today, and you’re talking to people with this attitude. If I weren’t here, would you be

even more unrelenting?”

Presley, who had been silent all along, suddenly spoke in a stern tone, sitting there without even batting an eyelid.

Addie paused, feeling a bit nervous. “Of course not, sir. Normally, as long as they do their jobs and fulfill their

responsibilities, I won’t make it

difficult for them.”

“Is that so?” Presley spoke again, his voice cold.

But hearing Addie’s words, a few of the servants by her side, particularly those with stronger personalities, couldn’t

help but let out a sarcastic chuckle They looked up at Presley and said. “Sir, we’ve made it very clear. We earn our

wages, and we’re not afraid of being supervised. But we really dare not work under Addie. Rather than being

oppressed by her in the future and then being kicked out, it’s better if we quit now. We re truly

sorry for the inconvenience today”

One person spoke up first and then others followed, bowing respectfully to Presley and preparing to leave.

Addie was so infuriated by the words and attitudes of these servants that she felt like her head was about to

explode. She gave them a murderous look. “You don’t dare to work under me? What on earth do you mean by

this?”

The maids ignored her, avoiding her like the plague as they made to leave

“Hold on Presley’s voice suddenly halted their retreat. He lifted his head, his gaze focusing on Addie. His eyes were

cold and indifferent. Addie

had rarely seen him like this

“Addie, I’ve always trusted you” Presley said.

Addie nodded quickly. “Yes, I’ve always been grateful for your kindness and trust”

Presley scoffed, “Trust?”

His scoff sent chills down Addie’s spine She looked at Presley cautiously, sensing the icy mockery in his eyes.

After a long while he sighed deeply, closing his eyes and shaking his head Presley said, “Trust? The word now only

makes me seem more foolish! To have allowed such an arrogant and sycophantic person by my side for decades!”

Addie was completely taken aback Even Robin, who had just entered from the back, was stunned by Presley’s

words. “What happened?” Robinia words brought Addie back to her senses

“What did I do wrong, sir? Ive already clarified everything in front of the reporters, didn’t I?” She paused, her gaze

landing on the maids, and snapped “Speak up Did you gossip about me to the master? What did I do to offend you?

Oh, I see, did someone pay you to smear me?”

The maids rolled their eyes in disbelief One of the maids said. “Who would bother to hear you? You’ve already

disgraced yourself enough an front of the media! Do you really think you’re some sort of big shot? You think people

need to unwar you?

Addie had no idea what ‘disgrace the maid was referring to Seeing the situation turning against her, she quickly

moved closer to Presity. don’t be swayed by their words I’ve been by your side for many years, dont you know what

kind of person i am? Everything was fine before today They must have been bribed by Chipel it’s not enough for her

to take away all our maids, the even senda people to continue causing

trouble here it’s too much.”

“So, were you also bribed by her? Presley asked

Addie was taken aback, “What?”

Presley pursed his lips picked up the mole, and resumed the paused TV On the screen, Aditie was seen in her

interview, her face tear and pathetic. Even after the interview ended,

| clueless as to where she went wrong

But the next moment, the scene on the TV changed to another video. It started with the scene of Addie lounging on

the sunlit terrace at the Harper family mansion earlier that afternoon, her legs crossed as she savored a piece of

fruit

Just a single glance, and Addie’s eyes suddenly widened. Her face turned sheet pale as if she had seen a ghost.
