Chapter 21 Didn’t I Serve You Well?
Oliver was stunned now.
The Wilson family did have some kind of influence in Eldoria but they were unable to investigate an extremely small company. Besides, people would get suspicious if he investigated it using his identity.
What if someone misunderstood him again like the other day when he taught Henry a lesson...
Oliver coughed twice and smiled awkwardly. He then said, "Noah, I can help you investigate it but I have to be frank with you. If someone creates rumors and claims that I have some kind of ambiguous relationship with your wife in the meantime, you can't believe that... Ouch!''
Before he could finish talking, Caleb smacked Oliver's head.
Stella began to work harder during the second month of her employment. She had also learned about some survival rules after first stepping into work. She knew how to mediate the situation when Ava made things difficult for her. Besides, she knew how to protect herself in the face of Daniel's open or secret harassment. She would try her best to limit her contact with him at work.
But it would consume much of her energy. She would be very exhausted every day.
When she went home, she would take off her high heels and lay on the sofa. Sometimes, she would be so tired that she slept until the middle of the night. When she woke up, she found that there was a thin blanket on her body. Liam would be on the floor next to her, sleeping while pillowing his arms.
She occupied his sofa, but he did not go into her bedroom and sleep in her bed.
Stella chuckled. Worry hit her but at the same time, she felt warmed.
Liam once said, "You'd better resign since this job is so tiring."
"I can't do that." Stella looked at him. If I don't work, we won't have the money to buy food and pay for the rent."
"Do you care about this little money?"
"Little money?" Feeling stupefied, she smiled and stated, "You're so carefree. You won't know the responsibility since you never take charge... Alas, we'll suffer if I don't sign a few more orders and get the bonus."
She unconsciously began to see them as a team when she talked.
