Bride To Be Not Me (Janice and Simon) novel Chapter 264

"Enough."

A trace of bitterness surfaced in Helena's eyes. "We're already in this situation, yet you're still wasting time cursing and complaining. What's the point?"

"Shut up."

She glanced around warily, afraid that someone might overhear. At the same time, she was beginning to feel genuine frustration toward Sarah.

"Simon has worked so hard to support this family. You're my daughter too, so why don't you contribute? Did I raise you just so you could sit around doing nothing?"

"Listen to me carefully. You're taking this job whether you like it or not. The money Simon sends me is for me, not for you. If you expect to live off me, you're in for a rude awakening. Just look at Simon, then think about how useless you've been."

Sarah was unwilling to accept this. "Since when are women expected to work this hard?"

"Did you hear me?" Helena's voice turned sharp.

"I… I heard you," she muttered.

She knew better than to disobey when Helena was truly angry.

"Ms. Smith, these are the employees for the cashier positions." Luther personally led Janice inside.
