Chapter 912

Is Jonathan really letting me manage Oceanic Estate?

As soon as those words were spoken, all eyes turned to Sasha, staring at her with surprise and envy.

Jocelyn and Shirley, in particular, were almost going crazy with resentment. They were both

squeezing their fists so hard that their nails were digging painfully into their palms.

In truth, it was not just Jasmine but rather all the women on this side of the family who had been

vying for the position as the matriarch of the Jadesons. This struggle had been going on for years

This was because Stephen was a rather unexceptional and mediocre man.

On the other hand, Charles and Connor had been the unfailing pillars of support of the Jadesons all

these years.

As such, no one could say that these two women, being the wives of Charles and Connor, would not

have a shot at becoming the matriarch of the Jadesons in the future.

No one would have guessed that, after these three women grappled with each other for so many

years, this young lady would appear out of nowhere and be given the coveted title. How could they

not feel resentment in their hearts?

How can we not feel jealous?

Jocelyn and Shirley looked almost murderous with rage.

However, Sasha did not pay them any heed. After the butler had delivered his message, she merely

sat down there and opened up the book of accounts that she had brought with her.

“I'm sorry, everyone. If we were to look at seniority, I know every single person here is more

deserving of this role than I am, but Old Mr. Jadeson has already given his orders. I have no choice

but to comply with his request. I hope you will all accept this with an open heart,” Sasha said

apologetically to the room.

Janice, who was also in the room with her, flashed her a thumbs up after hearing her little speech.

However, everybody else in the room was deeply dissatisfied. They looked like a pack of wolves

ready to rip her into pieces. Sasha had angered them, and they wanted to swallow her whole.

Sasha looked at the book of accounts in her lap and ran her eyes down the first page. “Jocelyn, Jade

Court's withdrawals amounted to five million each month last year. May I check with you what the

money was used for?”

“What is the meaning of this?" Jocelyn jumped to her feet furiously. “Are you challenging me?”

“I'm not challenging you; I'm merely auditing our accounts. There are records of all your monthly

withdrawals, but the purpose of such withdrawals has never been recorded. That's why I'm asking

you now,” Sasha explained lightly.

She seemed unperturbed by Jocelyn's outrage. She merely raised her head and looked at the older

woman in a measured manner.

Considering the fact that she had spent some time on Wall Street in the past, Sasha would not allow

anyone to question her right now.

However, it seemed Jocelyn was unrelenting.

"What a joke! Why should we explain our household expenses to you? Are you trying to manage

our household as well? We can spend our money however we wish! Stay out of it! The Jadesons

have never had such a practice before!” Jocelyn spat the words angrily at Sasha.

Sasha merely smirked.

“Well, from now on, that will be our new practice. It's fine if you refuse to explain your expenses.

However, Jade Court will only receive five hundred thousand from Oceanic Estate going forward.”

"How dare you! A mere five hundred thousand?” Jocelyn exploded into a rage.

She stormed toward Sasha and stopped right in front of her face. “Sasha Wand, are you crazy? Our

family used to receive five million! How can you reduce it all the way down to five hundred

thousand?”

Sasha remained stone-faced. “Yes. Since you're the only person left living in Jade Court right now,

you shouldn't be incurring so many expenses anyway. Besides, Jade Court is a property of the

Jadesons. You don't even need to pay any rent or mortgage! Five hundred thousand a month is

more than enough for you.”

"You-"

Jocelyn's face was purple with rage.

Sasha's words were too much for her to bear.

Not only did this b*tch insult me by saying that I have been living rent-free on the Jadesons’

property, but she’s also reducing my withdrawal amount because everyone in my family has died

and I'm the only one left? Jocelyn thought angrily to herself. She is too cruel!

Tony discreetly looked away from the family feud that was happening.

“Sasha, don't you think you have gone too far? You can't seriously be reducing Jade Court's

withdrawals just because Jocelyn has a small family! Does Old Mr. Jadeson even know what you're

doing here?” Shirley spoke up on Jocelyn’s behalf. After all, she was in the same boat as her.

Sasha turned to Shirley with a smile. “Well, I gave her a choice, didn't I? I requested her to explain

what the five million was used on, but she refused!”

Shirley was speechless at that.

Janice spoke up, trying to diffuse the situation and find a compromise. “Jocelyn, why don't you try

to explain your expenses? After all, Sasha's hands are tied! Since she has been entrusted with the

estate, she has no choice but to manage it well. Let's not forget that she has to report to Old Mr.

Jadeson!”

After a while, Jocelyn reluctantly relented and said rather bitterly, “I don't know how the money is

used. The money has always been handed over to your brother, not me. He gives me half a million

and keeps everything else.”

She looked pointedly at Shirley as she said this.

It was as if she had spoken on behalf of both of them.

Shirley was a clever woman, and her heart skipped a beat when she heard Jocelyn’s explanation. Her

instincts tingled as a bad feeling washed over her suddenly.

So, she only gets half a million? What a coincidence!
