Chapter 960


    Soon, John had someone arrange the chairs outside the workers’ quarters for everyone to sit down.


    Then, Sophia caringly asked them whether they were happy and used to the job. In response, the


    workers nodded and replied, “We have a stable job here, unlike our hometown, where we had to stay


    home during the winter.


    Besides, we make a lot more with our current job. Apart from that, there is nothing much we can spend


    on other than a few bottles of beer since the rules around here have made our lifestyle more disciplined


    and frugal. Furthermore, we’re given gifts during every festive season, which we think is a lot better


    than working in our hometown.”


    Upon hearing their feedback, Sophia heaved a sigh of relief. At this moment, Buddy said, “There are a


    fewdies from my vige who are asking whether there are any more vacancies left by chance. If


    there are, they’d like toe over.”


    Unable to decide, Sophia shifted her gaze to John, who answered, “Well, the kitchen could use some


    extra hands, so perhaps you could bring this matter to your supervisor’s attention. If he says yes, that’s


    your green light to bring your people here.”


    Buddy happily smiled and said, “Wow! Sophia, you’re really our lucky star! Our life wouldn’t be so much

    better if it weren’t for you.”


    Feeling touched, Sophia answered, “It’s the least I could do to repay everyone’s kindness.”


    Back then, the vigers would help out when they saw Sophia and her grandfather busy handling their


    crops. Because of that, their kindness had since etched in their minds in the years toe. Meanwhile,


    Buddy gazed at Sophia and said, “I heard your dad returned to the vige after all of us left. I was even


    told that he wants to sell the house.”


    Sophia responded with a smile. “That’s up to him. I don’t really care anyway.”


    Upon hearing Sophia’s reply, the others didn’t seem to look happy. “Well, he should have at least


    considered what the others would think about his decision before going about it. That ungrateful b*stard


    had better pray no one blows his deal when someone wants to buy that house.”


    In fact, Sophia couldn’t care less about Walter’s deal to sell the house since she had decided to put the


    matter behind her and move on. He can have the house all he wants. I’m not nning to go back there


    anyway since it’s empty. Walter wants a better life, so just let him be! After all, cutting ties with him is all


    that matters to me.


    John held Sophia’s hand and ced it in his palm. “Just let things y out the way they will. After all,


    there is really nothing much he can do either. Look at him now! He is so poor that he needs to


    desperately sell the house for cash.”


    Buddy sighed and said, “I heard he’s been having a tough life recently. Some of us said they’ve seen


    him working at the construction site.”


    While John had previously found out that Walter had been struggling to make ends meet, Sophia


    curled her lips and answered, “I don’t care how much struggle he is having in his life because what I


    care about is how well you guys are living.”


    Putting her point that way, she managed to distract everyone and change the subject. Meanwhile, the


    rest of the people began thinking about making more money for the sake of their future and their


    children.


    After chatting for more than an hour, Sophia and John decided to make a move since everyone else


    still had work to do. As they got into the car, Sophia sentimentally opined, “I’ve never had a smile on


    each and every one of their faces before. You have no idea how it’s like to live with uncertainty back in


    my hometown, where people have to suffer because they can’t put food on the table. Who would have


    thought that the luxury of talking about the future together would turn into reality today?”
