Contract Marriage With The Disabled CEO By Woody Rain Chapter 75
Chapter 75 Work Hard
The meal was had in a strange atmosphere.
In a bad mood, Jeffrey left with Emily right after breakfast.
Betty finished the bird’s nest and then left with Kerwin.
In a good mood, Old Bruce imed that he would go for a walk and saw them out.
Kerwin’s wheelchair slid into the car. Just as Betty was about to follow behind him, Old Bruce pulled
her.
“Betty,” he said with a cryptical look. “You did a good job yesterday, but I can tell you from my
experience that the odds of one-shot sess are slim. You should continue to work hard at home.”
Betty froze for a moment, realized what he
meant, and blushed.
Seriously?
She promised toply and hurried to the
car.
Finally, she passed through the banquet without a hitch.
As the deadline for thetest issue of the
magazine was drawing near, everyone was
frantic in the office.
Even Jeffrey had no time to find faults with Betty. He was also focusing on his work.
Since their partnership with Houston went south, their funds had been running short. They were going
through the biggest crisis since the establishment of the magazine. Fortunately, the second interview
with Kerwin came in time and brought them to a new high in sales. They were able to recover a little.
Still, the shortfall was there. Kerwin could save them once, but they had to rely on themselves this time.
Once again, everyone had a headacheing up with ideas for thetest issue.
Lydia was active this Ellie. Sie MILLI DI substandard food processing nt and recorded the scene
behind the curtain with a pinhole camera.
Recently, food safety had drawn a lot of attention in the country. Everyone was convinced that this topic
would cause a sensation. They worked overtime, intending to dig up everything about the terrible
factory.
As a member of the magazine, Betty also worked overtime even though she was not in charge of the
story.
Betty workedte on typesetting in the office. Swollen with pride, Lydia came over, threw a file on her
desk, and said, “Betty, this is the record of the workers in that factory. Many of them don’t have relevant
licenses. Help me do a statistical analysis.”
Betty had got too much on her te. Lydia’s request made her frown. “Lydia, my hands are full. Can
you do it on your own?”
“What?” Lydia’s eyes rounded as if she heard
a joke. “Don’t you know how busy I am? You see, I did the interview on my own! The work of sorting
out files alone is heavy. Do you want me to handle these minutiae too?”
Betty furrowed her brows and exined, “I’ve got a lot on my te too. Why don’t
you…”
Irritated by that, Lydia cut her short. “Betty, I know that you have a patron, but don’t get cocky. You can’t
idol around all day just because the editor-in-chief is partial to
you.”
Lydia rasped and raised her voice. People’s attention was drawn in an instant.
Betty’s face fell.

She took a deep breath, picked up the file, and said in a nd tone, “Okay, I’ll help.”
With acent look on her face, Lydia intended to brag, but Betty spoke again in an unhurried way.
“But please don’t tter yourself as the
benefactor to the magazine just because you did an interview. This is your first case after
you were employed Iwo years ago, remember?”
Betty’s words were mean, but she was telling the truth.
Lydia and she joined the magazine at the same time. One year ago, she was capable of handling
cases on her own while Lydia could only do odd jobs like proofreading.
“How dare you…” Lydia’s face turned ashen as she hadn’t expected Betty to counter. Embarrassed by
the snickers from all around, she gnashed her teeth and left in a huff.
As soon as the woman left, Sarah slid over in her chair and gave Betty a thumbs up. “That was
awesome! I’ve found Lydia annoying in the past few days. It’s just an interview, but she has her nose in
the air.”
Betty smiled with noment and started to process the file from Lydia.
As soon as she got her hands on it, her brows were locked in a frown.
This factory was horrible. Most of its employees were farmers from other cities. They didn’t have much
knowledge and worked like ves.
She hesitated for a moment and asked, “What will happen to these workers after we expose the illegal
practice of the factory?”
“Out of work.” Sarah shrugged. “I’m in charge of investigating the financial conditions of the factory.
Recently, they’ve received a lot of major orders, and their funds are falling short. It seems they haven’t
paid the employees for a long time. If we expose them, these deals will probably go to waste, and the
workers can quit thinking about their wages.”
Although Betty sympathized with them, she knew that she would be sorry for the consumers if the food
manufactured by the nt circted in the market. Therefore, she stopped talking and continued with
her
work.
At around 11 o’clock, Betty started to have stomach cramps.
She rubbed her stomach and frowned.
She had stomach problems. Whenever she was hungry, her stomach would ache. She only had some
cookies for dinner and now started to suffer.
At suchte hours, the store downstairs was closed. She had to go to the pantry and see if there was
anything to eat in the fridge,
Unfortunately, the snacks in the fridge had been eaten since so many people workedte
today.
Without a choice, Betty put a ss of milk in
the oven.
While she was sipping the milk, footsteps were hearding from behind her.
She turned around. It was thest person she wanted to see.
Jeffrey Martin…
Jeffrey was holding a lunch box in his hand. Apparently, he came to the pantry to reheat the food in the
oven. He was surprised to run into Betty
Betty’s face turned cold in an instant. She turned to leave, but Jeffrey called out.
“Betty!”
Betty continued her way outside until her wrist was grabbed. She turned around, only to see Jeffrey’s
angry face.
“Betty,” Jeffrey sulked. “Didn’t you hear me?”
