My billionaire husband spoils me too much novel Chapter 816

"Mr. Jadwin, it's not my fault. It was Sonia who used the poisonous wild mushrooms as today's ingredient. You've found it out, haven't you? Sonia should take the main responsibility! All I did was serve dishes. How could you fire me?"

"As the shop manager of this branch, you have joint responsibility!" Mr. Jadwin, the general manager, replied toughly.

May was aggrieved. "Are you blaming me for not discovering the problem in time? But the shop manager of the main store was there too, and he didn't discover it either. Besides, among the ten tables I served that day, only one guest claimed he had food poisoning after eating those mushrooms. Please give me the contact information of that guest, I can personally apologize to him and ask for his forgiveness."

"Mr. Jadwin, I really need this job! I have been working here for years. Please give me a chance. I am willing to pay all the medical expenses of that guest."

May bowed low to Mr. Jadwin, begging for a chance.

"I'm sorry, May."

Mr. Jadwin appreciated May's performance at work, but he had to fire her as the guest had requested.

"I'm not interested in the grudge between you and Sonia. Both of you are fired. Later, we will sue Sonia for using poisonous mushrooms in the restaurant."

Mr. Jadwin patted May's shoulder, sighing.

"I'm willing to give you a chance, but that guest won't allow it. Even I can't get his personal number and apologize, let alone you. Roxanne, you're smart and hard-working. I'm sure you'll find another job soon."

Roxanne was May's name in this country. Knowing that she was bound to be fired, May sat on the chair with her head lowered down, tears of grievance filling her eyes.

After working in this restaurant for four years, she finally settled down with a stable salary and familiar colleagues and friends. This calm and happy life ended today. Now she had to look everywhere for jobs like before. May couldn't help but feel exhausted at this thought.

"Roxanne, it's not your fault."

"You poor girl!"

After Mr. Jadwin left, all May's colleagues came over to comfort her.

"Sonia really went too far this time! She must be mad after failing to seduce your boyfriend and doing such a horrible thing as a result. Everyone knows she's jealous of you!"

May looked up with a forced smile, pretending to be calm. "I'm fine. Thanks."

She had long been exhausted from struggling alone for a living in this foreign country. At this second, she really wished to have a home.

It had always been her dream to get married and live an ordinary yet happy life as a housewife with her lovely children. In fact, it had never occurred to her that she would be working alone abroad.

Even Christina was married and became a mother.

May perked up when she thought about her life after getting married. Even if her career was ruined, she still had a boyfriend who loved her.

May called her busy boyfriend Henry that day, but the phone was still picked up by his agent, Shirley Johanning.

"Miss Fain, I told you before that Henry is a busy celebrity. Flying around every day to shoot advertisements is hard work. As his girlfriend, you should support him with care and love, not disturb him by calling so frequently."

Shirley scolded May in a voice dripping with sarcasm.

May, who was in a bad mood today, had no patience to be tactful with Shirley, yelling with anger, "Give the phone to Henry now! I have something urgent to ask him!"

Irritated, Shirley took a few deep breaths to suppress the urge to scold this cheap woman who wasn't good enough for Henry since Shirley knew how much Henry cared about his girlfriend.

"Okay, I'll give the phone to him," Shirley replied in a perfunctory tone.

"Honey, you called just when I'm missing you!" Henry joked in a good mood. "We do have a connection, don't we?"

It was Henry's hobby to make such jokes. May, who used to find them interesting, didn't laugh at all. She had something serious to say.

"Henry, are you willing to marry me?"

May suddenly asked.

They started dating seven years ago, and May had been imagining her happy married life for five years. To her disappointment, Henry never proposed. Therefore, May decided to be thick-skinned and ask him to marry her today.

Henry was obviously shocked.

"Henry, answer me, are you willing to marry me or not?" May asked again nervously.

Henry stammered, "Honey, you know I love you."
