Chapter 323
“By the way, my name is Kyla Corbyn. You can call me Kyla. What’s your name?” the boss asked.
“I’m Grace. Kyla, you can just call me Grace,” said Grace, and all
at once, it seemed as if the gloom in her eyes was dispelled.
Kyla Corbyn looked at Grace, her eyes flickering.
Grace left after leaving her name and contact information. A woman in her 50s went over to Kyla Corbyn. “What were your talking about with that woman?”
“She just applied to be our food delivery rider, and I agreed to let her come to work tomorrow,” said Kyla Corbyn.
“A woman her age applying to be a rider? There must be something wrong with her. Don’t girls like her usually get an office job?” This rider job paid low wages, and only people in their 50s were asking about it these days. However, they resented the low pay and long hours, so they refused to join.
“She has a criminal record for killing someone with her car,” said Kyla Corbyn. “I think she’s nice. She was kind to Nelson, so I don’t think she’s a bad person. The car crash must have been an
accident.”
“You!” Upon hearing this, Mrs. Corbyn could not help scolding, “Haven’t you suffered enough? Why do you trust people so
record work here. If she killed someone while delivering orders, are we supposed to pay on her behalf?”
Kyla Corbyn sighed. “Mom, I just want to give her a chance. It
seems to me that she really needs the job.”
“A chance? Didn’t they give you a chance? Nelson still needs to cure his ear, and we’re short of money!” Mrs. Corbyn said angrily.
Kyla Corbyn gave a wry smile and said, “It’s exactly because no one gave me a chance before that I… want to give her a chance all the more. After all… I’ve been to prison too.”
Mrs. Corbyn could not help sighing at this and said nothing more.
Her daughter’s sentence to jail had been their family’s pain until
now!
In the evening, Grace said to Jason, “Well… I’ve got a job, but I’m afraid I’m going to finish work late and disturb you, so… I think it might be better for me to move back to the rental house.”
Jason raised his eyebrows slightly. “Are you trying to move out again?”
Not move out, but move back. His choice of words made it seem as if this was her home.
However, a giant mansion like Reed Residence would never become her home.
She did not even know if she would ever have a home again.
“It’s too big, and I’m not used to living here. Maybe a small place like the rental house will suit me better,” she said tactfully. “Besides, I’ve paid the rent. It would be a pity not to live there.”
“Then you’d better get used to it, Sis,” Jason said calmly. “As for the rent, I’ll pay for it.”
“No, I…” She wanted to say more, but his eyes were suddenly cold.
“Sis, if you are really afraid of disturbing me by leaving work late, you can quit your new job and find another one. Isn’t that better?” He stared at her and said, “Or do you think this job is more important than me?”
Grace immediately had a hair-raising feeling.
