An hour later, Abby finally arrived at Richard's office.
After entering, she saw the man was focusing on the documents. Without even lifting his head, he said, "Too slow. Do you know how precious the time you wasted just now is to me?"
"I really don't know."
Abby shook her head honestly and said to herself. "I'm wasting my time. What does it have to do with you?"
Richard watched his watch and calmly analyzed, "From your university to the company, the conservative estimate is that the drive is 30 minutes by car. If the driver drove faster, 20 minutes would be enough. You spent 70 minutes. That is to say, in the extra dozens of minutes that you wasted, I lost tens of millions of dollars just to wait for you!"
"No... It’s too exaggerated, isn't it?"
When Abby heard that, she became a little uneasy.
"It is just a conservative estimate."
Richard said rudely.
Abby felt wronged. "I don't have a car. Did you count the time on driving a car?"
"It won't take more than an hour to take a taxi."
"I took the bus!" Abby said.
"Why? No more than 34 dollars by taxi. Compared with tens of millions an hour, I believe smart people know how to choose."
Richard spoke clearly, but Abby felt ridiculous.
"Mr. Scott, it's not that I don't want to take a taxi. I don't have money! Do you know what it means? I have resigned from my previous job and become a maid for you without salary. How can I have money to take a taxi? It's so hot, if I can take a taxi, who is willing to take a bus?"
"......"
Richard, who had a glib tongue, was completely speechless at this moment.
This woman... What a poor woman!
"Well, stop talking about it anymore. Do you have any orders for me to come here?"
Abby only felt helpless.
"Even if there's no work, you should do your best to be my decoration."
Abby was choked again by his words.
At noon, Abby and Richard ordered takeout as lunch at the company.
In the afternoon, Abby was ordered by Richard to serve tea and coffee. She was no more a decoration, but a handyman who should do all the odd jobs.
Abby could only accept his arrangement and complain in her heart.
In the evening, Richard finally finished his work. After taking her out of the company, they went to the shopping mall in downtown.
Abby knew about this shopping mall.
There were many flagship stores inside, and all the things cost several thousand dollars. It was impossible for poor people like her to have a chance to buy one.
Therefore, when Richard led her into the mall, she could not help but ask, "Mr. Scott, may I ask what we are going to do?"
"Buy some clothes."
Richard said simply.
"I see!"
Abby responded and could not help but burst into tears in her heart.
Although she was his servant, the man was not kindly in asking her to do things.
It was not enough to exploit her in the company for the whole afternoon and now she had to carry bag for him. He really didn't know how to show mercy!
Just as Abby was distracted for a short while, Richard had already led her up to the fifth floor of the mall.
The stores on this floor were all selling clothes. At first, Abby thought that Abby was going to a menswear shop. However, she didn't expect that when he passed by a dress shop, he turned and walked in.
"Hey? Mr. Scott, did you go wrong?"
Abby reminded him in a hurry.
"No."
Richard said coldly and walked in without hesitate.
The saleswomen who were able to work in this brand store all knew well how to judge a man. When they saw that Richard was wearing famous brands all over, they rushed up with a warm smile and respectful attitude.
"Sir, what could I do for you?"
