Female Novel
Chapter 592
At two in the afternoon, Fane arrived home.
Five to six maids, the cleaners, the cook, and four security guards from both shifts were already
standing in the yard. There were at least a dozen of them.
After a round of introductions, Fane looked at Fiona and asked, "What now? Almost time, right?"
"Yes, that's correct!" Fiona nodded satisfactorily. It was the first time she felt like a boss—she would be
able to instruct servants in the future! She had not felt this way in more than five years.
"Oh, all you must listen to Jenny’s instructions in the future, alright?" After some thought, Fane said to
the servants, "I n the future, Jenny will let you know how much you should be paid, and she’ll also be
instructing you to go to the market as well a s other tasks." “Me?" Jenny was surprised at the flattery.
Fiona nodded. “Yes, you'll be the head housekeeper. As for your salary, I’ll double i t!" she said
seriously.
"Yes, Master!" Jenny nodded, her heart filled with glee. She felt that she had made the right decision
and followed the right master. "Thank you again, master!"
"Ah, you're welcome!" Fane said happily.
"Hang on, Fane, you just hired a few security guards to watch the home. What about a bodyguard?
The bodyguard is very important. Without a bodyguard, what would I do if I ran into some gangsters?
What if they rob me of my belongings? I'm still thinking about my jade bracelet and all the money that I
was robbed of. 1 still feel really uncomfortable!" Fiona remembered the past and said unhappily, "I s it
because you found that bodyguard salaries are not cheap, so you're reluctant t o hire one?"
Fane felt ashamed and quickly explained," Mother, please don't worry, that's not true. I’ll go find one
today. I actually went to look for one today, but I found that the security companies are not that reliable.
I've already asked someone to help find me a reliable bodyguard. They should send someone in the
afternoon today or tomorrow!"
Fiona thought about Fane's reply. "It's good that you think that. Don't hire too many people. There are
only so many of us, and w e won't be going out often. Just about a dozen would do!"
Joan was indeed a little reluctant to spend the money. She turned to Fane and asserted, "Fane, a
penny saved is a penny earned. Based on my estimates, you don't have that much money. Salaries
take some time to be paid. If you get a dozen bodyguards, wouldn't that cost you a fair bit of money?”
As soon as Fiona heard this, she became unhappy and her facial expressions sank.' Dear in-law, it’s
already economical to hire just a dozen bodyguards. For this month, what would paying their salaries
cost him? It'll just be a few hundred thousand. This isn't a big deal at all. Fane's salary is already twenty
million a month. Isn't that sufficient? We're the type of people who live in large villas. In the future, what
needs to be spent should be spent. Don't let your judgment be constrained by the street sweeper's
salary you used to earn, alright?’ She turned to Joan. "You, look at you. You keep wearing the same
few clothes that Fane bought you. Can't you buy more? Change your outfit more often. In a singlenovelbin
week, shouldn't you have at least a set of clothes each day? With your disheveled look, I’ll feel too
ashamed to introduce my rich friends to you!
Joan smiled awkwardly. "Dear in-law, you may feel this way. However, I still think we need to plan
carefully. Furthermore, my son will only receive his first month's salary in another two days. In the
meantime, let's spend wisely!"
Fane, observing the exchange, looked at his mother with a bad feeling in his heart. I t was true that his
mother never had any demands or requests. She was a woman who had grown accustomed to hard
times and hence, made thriftiness her way of life.
She had never asked him for money.
He thought, 'What little money I'd given her before, she most likely hasn’t spent it all.'
However, as a son, he no longer lacked money. In fact, calling him wealthy would not even be an
exaggeration.
Had he missed something here?
