The moment Corbin heard that the company would soon deduct a part of his monthly wage as
punishment, he immediately sprang up from the bed and started to sweat profusely.
“Mr. Moran, please don’t do this to me!”
He hadn’t even stepped foot inside the office in a long while, and his salary had already been docked.
He felt wronged!
“Then you’d better put your head to good use and come up with bright ideas. I suggest you pray that
things will work out for Eliana. If the plan fails, your salary will be reduced immediately.”
“But Mr. Moran, please hear me out…”
However, without listening to what Corbin had to say, Maurice abruptly ended the call.
Dropping his head in defeat, Corbin felt depressed at the string of unfortunate events that came his
way.
He had been hospitalized due to his injuries from an accident at work. But even in his poor condition,
he still had to give advice to Maurice on how to win Eliana’s heart. His boss made one thing very clear.
If Corbin was unable to provide helpful and effective plans, he would be dealt with a harsh pay cut.
How unlucky he was to be in such a predicament!
Later that day, Eliana returned home exhausted. As soon as she sat down on the sofa, her phone
suddenly vibrated.
She checked her notifications and saw a message from a local bank. Someone had just transferred a
sum of money to her account.
After a few seconds, a text came in from Wyatt.
“Eliana, the restaurant will be closed indefinitely until further notice. You don’t have to report to work for
the time being, but rest assured, you will still be compensated. I just wired you your salary for this
month. Take care.”
With a deep frown, Eliana tossed her phone on the sofa and threw herself on the velvet sofa.
She wondered if she had just lost her job again.
As countless thoughts began to consume her, the peaceful silence in her home was interrupted by the
shrill ringtone of her phone. Someone was calling her, but it was an unknown number.
Her eyebrows furrowed in confusion. Who would call her at this time?
After a moment of hesitation, Eliana finally answered the call.
“Hello?”
“Hi, Eliana. This is Nicole.”
“Nicole! How unexpected!” Eliana sat up as curiosity took over her. “Why did you call me?”
“I dropped by Moonlight earlier, but you weren’t there. Didn’t we make an agreement last time that if I
wronged you, I would let you slap me back? Well, I’m here to live up to my part of the deal.”
Her reason caught Eliana by surprise.
She didn’t think that Nicole would take their agreement seriously. Unexpectedly, Nicole remembered it
and wanted to keep her promise, which changed Eliana’s attitude towards her.
“No, you can forget about it. It’s good that our past misunderstanding had been cleared up. Besides, I
don’t like hurting other people,” Eliana said graciously.
“Fair enough. But I still don’t like the feeling of owing you something. How about this? I heard that you
are searching for a part-time job recently. Coincidentally, I’m actually looking for a stylist. The salary is
twenty-five thousand a month. I’ll send you the rest of the details later. Be there at the interview
tomorrow. You can’t refuse, or else you’ll have no other choice but to slap me back.”
Eliana was utterly speechless. She didn’t know whether to cry or laugh. No other employers would be
so kind as to help her like this. Moreover, if she didn’t accept the invitation, she would have to slap
Nicole.
“Well, alright then. I’ll be there,” Eliana agreed without hesitation.
She did need the money and welcomed any work to keep her mind distracted from all her emotional
problems.
After exchanging farewells, Eliana soon fell asleep on the sofa. When she woke up in a daze a while
later, she saw Foodie playfully licking her hand.
“Mommy, you’re finally awake!” Aileen trotted over with a big smile on her face.
Eliana was surprised to see them. She realized that Nana had already fetched the two kids from school
for her.
“Oh, Nana. I’m sorry to trouble you again.”
Rubbing her eyes in exhaustion, Eliana slowly rose from the sofa to cook for her family.
Nana shook her head and said, “Eliana, you’d better get some rest. You’re in no shape to prepare
meals for us. Let’s order take out instead. By the way, don’t worry about the money. I’ve found a job
now, and I’ll help with the family expenses moving forward.”
“Really now?” Eliana couldn’t believe it.
Proudly patting her chest, Nana replied with a confident smile, “Of course, my dear.”
Taking a long look at her face, Eliana said, “Nana, please don’t push yourself too hard. Don’t force
yourself to work odd jobs just for the money.”
Nana hurriedly explained, “No, I actually found a job that I love. Don’t worry about me.”
It was all a lie.
She hadn’t worked for a few years after she quit the entertainment business, and it was nearly
impossible to find a good job now.
But she didn’t want Eliana to worry about her. It was for the best.
“Well, enough about me. How are you doing at the restaurant? Tell me more about your work. Is it
tiring?” Nana suddenly changed the topic.
“Not at all. I enjoy working at the restaurant. Everything is going fine over there.”
Eliana lied too. She didn’t want Nana to know that the restaurant just closed down.
At this moment, the two women shared the same thought.
