The runaway groom novel (Irene and Isaac) novel Chapter 1120

So, Vivian was trying to put her on her payroll? Sue had been working for a good family before and certainly never experienced this.

However, there was one thing she knew—to never take what was not hers.

Even if she did, she would eventually pay the consequences and be left worse off than now.

That was why she must never fall to temptation, not to mention that Mr. Slate was paying her well!

Moreover, it was all thanks to Wendy fighting for her. There was no way she would work against Wendy!

And having worked at Monsoon for a while, she knew how much rich families pay their maids. Three grand per month was already good, and Mr. Slate paid her three and a half! If anything, even the maids in Monsoon would be jealous of her, and it was all the more reason for her to say no!

"I'm afraid I can't do it," she told Vivian, thickening her accent to make her seem even more ignorant. "Us bumpkins only know things like housework. I really can't do what you've asked me to."

Vivian frowned, a bit jarred by the accent.

But she knew Sue was rejecting her—she at least knew that much!

Pigheaded bumpkin!

"What are you saying?" She smiled, not sure why Sue would reject her offer. "I'm sure you were recruited into Monsoon because you're capable, and I'm just asking something very simple. Why not do it? Why suffer? Aren't you stupid?"

If she were in Sue's place, she would have taken the money so that her son could have a comfortable life while not having to worry about being pestered by creditors!

"I can handle my problems myself. And I'm sorry, I'm going to be late," Sue said, refusing to stay and argue since Vivian was insistent.

She made her position clear, just as she was perfectly aware who between Vivian and Wendy had their best interest in mind!
