Mrs. Lowell looked at Jade with deep concern. The boss was incredibly protective of Susanna, and now it seemed Jade was going to be kicked out for sure.
"Susanna... look, Jade didn't mean it. How about she apologizes to you?" the housekeeper tried to placate the crying woman.
Susanna held her stinging cheek, her expression twisted with rage as she shot a venomous glare at Jade. "I am going to make your life a living hell."
With that, Susanna spun around and dashed back to her room to call Clayton.
Mrs. Lowell sighed heavily. "Miss White, the boss cares deeply for her. When he gets back, I'll try to explain what happened, but if..."
If Clayton insisted on kicking Jade out, there was nothing she could do.
Jade nodded. "Thank you... I know what I have to do."
If Clayton ordered her to leave, she wouldn't fight it.
"Mrs. Lowell, I need to head out for a bit. If anything comes up, I'll explain everything to Clayton when I return tonight."
Finishing her tasteless breakfast, Jade debated internally whether she should go see Alicia.
Would Alicia even give her the time of day?
After sitting in silence for a long time, she finally stood up and walked out of Clayton's mansion.
Since Clayton had intervened this time, Brandon wouldn't dare make a move against her in the short term. It was relatively safe for her to go out.
In the bedroom, Susanna stood by the window, watching Jade leave before calling Natalia. "Natalia, she's leaving the house. I eavesdropped on her and Clayton. Patriarch Reginald White left her a letter, and I suspect it contains something critical that might jeopardize The Gentleman's plans."
