Burned Once, Never Again (Niamh and Castiel) novel Chapter 47

Chapter 47 

Niamh took a nap for a few hours, and when she woke up, Billie had already left for work. She had written a note for her

Breakfast is in the pot.” 

The sight of Billie’s message warmed Niamh’s heart. Clearly, Billie still worried about her, treating her like a pampered young madam of the Jamison family

The effort Billie put into making breakfast was enough to show that having a friend like her was a true blessing

Breakfast was all set

Niamh received a call from Simon, “Hello, Uncle Simon.” 

Quinn Zeller has arrived in Greenburg and will be assisting you from now on,Simon informed her

Quinn Zeller? After spending three months abroad, Niamh knew exactly what a formidable presence Quinn was in Simon’s company. She was surprised that Simon had assigned Quinn to assist her

At this point, getting up was unavoidable. Thank you, Uncle Simon,Niamh said

Let them see clearly that it’s not about you relying on your husband. Instead, it was he who requested that you be a fulltime wife!” 

Niamh didn’t respond. Although surprised by what Simon said, she was still touched

Simon was right. Even though she was an orphan back then, she never depended on Castiel for support. She had managed everything well on her own

When it came to finding a job, she would have easily found one that suited her, even without Castiel’s help

But at the time, Castiel said, “My wife doesn’t need to struggle for a living!” 

Looking back, that statement was a major pitfall. After marrying Castiel, many people claimed she was after the Jamison family’s money, making it seem like she was desperate for it

Now, she realized that she hadn’t fully considered things back then

Over the years, Renee had always seen her lack of financial independence as proof that she couldn’t survive without Castiel. As a result, Renee constantly manipulated and humiliated her, believing she would never leave Castiel

Niamh quickly finished her breakfast, tidied 

Quinn was quick to get things done up, and went out. She called Quinn from the car, and 

On the other end of the line, Quinn said, I’ve just set up the office, and the recruitment information is already online. Let’s meet to discuss it.” 

Okay, send me your location, Niamh said, shocked

2/2 

Just moments ago, Simon had told her that Quinn had arrived in Greenburg, and now she had already set up the office. Hence, her success came as no surprise

After ending the call, Niamh received Quinn’s location. As she was about to navigate there, Castiel’s call came in. Niamh, who was somewhat directionally challenged, was annoyed with him for hogging the phone
