"Miss. Tate already asked me about that. I said that I didn''t have any expectation in particr so you can just offer with the lowest wage you have."


    "The minimum sry for this position would be three to four thousand, so we are going to offer you three thousand at first. Once you pass the probation, you will get a raise. We do an appraisal every half a year depending on your performance."


    "Thank you! That sry is considered quite high already. I''m happy with it. I''ll work hard." Juliet was overwhelmed by different emotions. She was happy that the interview went so smoothly, surprised because Avery epted her despite herck of experience, concerned because she didn''t know if she could fulfill her duty well, and worried if she could find the truth of the Goulds Family''s downfall.


    In the afternoon, Natalie walked out of her apartment with a bag of trash on her way to a salon for a haircut.


    Two minutester, she noticed that she was being followed.


    It was during the day and though the weather was slightly cloudy, there were cars and passer-by everywhere on the streets, so she wasn''t afraid. She made a sharp turn in the alley ahead and the man who was following her went into the alley as well.


    "Who are you? Why are you following me?" She roared.


    The man was wearing a mask, but she could tell that he did not expect Natalie to confront him.


    "Are you working for Elliot?" Natalie took a guess. "I don''t think I''ve done anything."


    "You are a smart woman, Ms. Jennings. I won''t beat around the bushes. You crossed Mr. Foster before, so it''s only natural that he has someone keeping an eye on you," the man said.


    "Oh... So it is him." She sighed a breath of relief. "I''m going to the salon. Are youing along? I can pay for you."


    "No. Go ahead and just ignore me." The man followed her to the salon.


    "Tell Elliot that I intend on going back to Aryadelle because my parents are there. I have nothing left, so I won''t try anything anymore."


    "What do you n to do now?"


    "I''m falling ill and the doctor has


    asked me to take more rest. I''ll wait until next year to n my future!"


    She said carelessly. "Your job is to


    keep an eye on me? It''s cold out there so I stay home all the time. Why don''t you stay with me? That way, I have someone to talk to. I''m bored out of my mind at home."


    "..." The man was instantly rendered speechless.


    Half an hourter, Holly received a text message from Natalie.


    [Holly, Elliot''s man is onto me. We meet up for the time being.


    Let''s talk through messages if d to reach me.] Contents


    Holly did not live with Natalie, so she was not worried. As long as she stays away from Natalie, she should be safe.


    Still, she would have to be careful, as she knew better than to fully rely on Natalie.


    After a few thoughtful moments, she swiftly gathered all her belongings and left the area she lived in.


    She did not contact herndlord about it as she had already paid three months'' worth of her rent along with one month worth of deposit ahead of time; even if she was to mention to the owner that


    she was leaving, the would


    not give her money back since the contract had not expired.


    Since Natalie was being watched, it was not a good time for her to rm anyone.


    At night, Natalie gave her a call.


    "Holly, where are you now?" Natalie asked. "It''s best that you move! I don''t want Elliot''s men to find you."Content held by N?velDrama.Org.


    "I''ve already moved," Holly said calmly.


    "That''s great. I''m calling you to share some good news," Natalie said cheerfully.
