Lennox cursed again over the phone. “Lonbin, do you even have a brain? Don’t you know what Titus thinks of my son and me? Even a fool can see it. If I go there, you’ll fall even faster.
“If I stay out of it and you take the initiative to admit your mistakes and return some of the money you’ve embezzled, he might let you off the hook. But I’m afraid your days as the villa’s butler are over.”
Not just the villa—even the old house would be affected. Once Titus moved in, he would definitely replace everyone there.
When Lennox became acting patriarch, he had replaced all the household staff himself.
Lonbin felt that Lennox’s criticism made sense.
If he admitted his mistakes and returned part of the money, the new patriarch might spare him. According to Lennox, the worst outcome would be losing his position as butler.
Over the years, he had made plenty of money. Even if he lost his job, he wasn’t worried. He could start a small business, and he still had extra houses and shops collecting rent. Even if he stopped working altogether, the rental income alone would support him comfortably.
