Lucy scolded, "The Robson family owns the company, and I'm Tilda's aunt and her only family. She won't say a thing now that I'm firing all of you!
"She's been home recuperating these days and hasn't gotten time to ask about the company's financial affairs, so she asked me to come and check the accounts. Why are you stopping me? How bold!
"Are you worried that I'll tamper with the company's financial affairs?
"You know me! Even Tilda's late parents didn't treat me like a thief. You work for us. Don't forget that. You really think you own this place?
"I'm being nice. If you dare to stop me again, you'll all be kicked away!"
All my accountants, including Faye, pulled a long face. If it weren't for the fact that Lucy was my aunt, they'd have called the security guards to kick Lucy and Mona away already.
Faye said to Lucy, trying to be as patient as she could, "That's not quite proper, don't you think?
"We aren't standing your way. The thing is, Ms. Robson didn't give us any orders. Don't you think you're giving us a hard time by showing up here unannounced and demanding the power to control the money just like this?
"At least show us Ms. Robson's personal seal or the company's seal. Or I can just call her..."
Before she could finish her words, Mona said angrily, "Shut up! Gary is dead, and she's home mourning. You really think you should call her now? Don't disturb her!
"Tilda is in poor health, and Gary's accident has worsened her condition. You really think she's in the mood to manage the company now?
"I'm pregnant, OK? She asked Lucy and me to help her manage the company's financial affairs! Or I wouldn't have bothered at all!
"Enough said! Hand over your work. You'll have a few days off. Come back when Tilda is done with Gary's affairs and comes back!"
Lucy and Mona were on their high horse, thinking that they owned the place. I was pissed off and amused.
Faye and the others were so angry that their faces turned red. In the next second, they saw me standing at the door.
Their eyes lit up, and they hurriedly said, "Ms. Robson! We're about to quit our jobs if you don't show up! We're being given a hard time!"
Lucy and Mona were stunned and turned around at once.
When they saw me, they looked a little panicked.
I pretended to be confused. "Lucy, what are you and Mona doing?
"When did I tell you to take over the company's finances?"
