"You want to get your salary prepaid on your first day of work?"
Verena blushed awkwardly.
"I know it sounds unreasonable. But I am in urgent need for money. Don't worry. I will do a good job of housework! I won't let you down! And I can do whatever I am told!"
If she failed to get money, she might need to sleep on the street tonight.
Lemuel glanced at her and sneered, "You will never do a good job!"
"What do you mean?" Verena looked at him confusedly.
"Well, from now on, you are fired!"
"Why?"
"Because you are up to something evil!"
Lemuel looked indifferent still and then moved a bit. The suit he just grabbed was dropped on the ground.
"I told you I didn't plan for anything against you! I am here to do housework just because I need money! Why don't you believe me no matter how many times I have repeated?"
Verena was so mad that she kept shouting at him as her face turned to be burning red.
However, Lemuel still remained emotionless, "It won't work no matter how many times you have repeated. You can leave now!"
She tried to hold back her anger to curse him. Then she said, "But you need to pay me for my work today! It's 280 in total!"
Lemuel sneered, "Well, you still plan for money, right?"
Verena also sneered, "Cut the crap! Of course I work for money! What else shall I ask for besides that? Are you out of your mind?"
Without speaking, Verena took out his wallet and dropped a check on the ground.
Verena pinched it up, looking disdainful. Then she threw it onto his chest.
"What do you mean? Are you provoking me? I need 280 only! If you don't have enough change, just give me three hundred! Hurry up! I am in a hurry!"
Lemuel looked at her from head to toe with his cold eyes.
Then he glanced at Owen, who stood beside to watch.
Not until then did he collect himself. Then he took out 300 from his wallet and handed the banknotes to Verena.
"Lady, I didn't expect that we actually met twice in a day! What a magical coincidence!"
"You have to go to check your eyes in the hospital!" she glanced at Owen with great disdain. Then she walked over to Lemuel and she then took out her own wallet.
Lemuel lowered his head and looked at her worn wallet.
When hearing her mocking words, Owen couldn't help twitching. He didn't believe that she actually disdained his deadly-appealing eyes.
Frowning, Verena kept rummaging her own worn-looking wallet. Finally, she found a 20 yuan banknote. Then she kept her body straight and put it into Lemuel's hand, looking proud.
"Here is your change! I am not that poor! After all, I have my own pride! Don't ever humiliate me!"
