He proposely cleared his throat a couple of times, Whitney got a fright and returned to her senses. She looked embarrassed, as if dlse was caught doin something wrong Her hand that was holding the cup of water could not help but tremble.
âIâm sorry!â
A droplet of water oozed out from Charlesâ mouth and rolled all the way from his chin down to his throat and collarbones That sparkling water droplet moved according to his breathing, making him look even more sexy and enticing âIâm sorry. I didnât mean it. Let me wipe it off for you.â
Whitney felt guilty and crazy. In fact, she felt like a horny beast.
Charles was already in that state. His handsome face was covered with bruises. Yet, she still let her fmagination run wild while he had a drink of water.
The tips of her ears reddened completely. Out of panie, she grabbed a piece of tissue and began to wipe the water off Charles At the same time, she could feel the soft and warm skin of his neck.
She looked up and met those observant eyes of Charles. Once again. Whitney was embarrassed and quickly retracted her hand.
âT-There. Itâs gone now.â
Charles stared at her with those blue eyes of his. âFrom now on, you donât have to do all these. We have housekeepers at home. Treat the Newton residence as your own home and do as you please. I wonât interfere with your activities during the day.â
Whitney looked down. âManuel told me that Iâm your personal maid. As your maid, I should look after you when you are injured. Otherwise, the rest of the family will start to have their suspicions.â
Charles nearly forgot about that.
Previously, Jasmine had questioned him Back then, his relationship with Whitney was still unclear, so he old Its sister that Whitney was his personal maid.
At present, they were married.
Even though the marriage was only to last for a year. Whimney was still his legal wife during this period âThatâs my bad. Our marriage happened too suddenly, and I had no time to inform my family After a buffer period, Iâll disclose our marriage to my family News Unloppy this maner Just leave home see. a Since he was adamant, Whitney did not say anything die Insead she too Charles needed to rest because both his left leg and right hand were broken. Hence, full Naco had to be postponed to a week later During those seven days, Charles really did not get down from the bed in order to achieve recovery Whitney insisted on taking care of him. As his wife and personal maid in name, she had to do in Them was no reason for Charles to turn her away.
Whimey cleaned him, fed him his meals and medications, and even relieved his boredom. She was a very caring caregiver.
As such, there was a slight change in their relationship during this period.
One afternoon, the bedroom was quiet and peaceful after Whitney had fed Charles his medicine She sat on the couch and looked at her phone, seemingly focused on something. There was a booklet on the coffee table, and she began writing in it.
Charles was playing with his phone on the bed. Once in a while, he would glance at her When he saw how serious and focused she was, he could not help but ask, âWhat are you writing?â
âIâm looking for a job. Youâre aware that I lost my job, no?â
Charles stared at her and said, âIâm aware, but didnât I tell you that you can continue to be the manager at the oceanarium? As for the days when you threatened to quit, just treat it as your leave. Why donât you go back Whitney replied as she continued doing whatever she was doing. âSalinsburgh is an expensive city.
After sending some money back to Tayhaven, my salary is only enough to cover my daily expenses and rental Thereâs basically nothing left. This wonât do I intend to find a job that allows me to earn money faster Once I have a certain amount of money in hand, I can rent a shop in Salinsburgh and run a small business. This way, I can secure my footing in the long run.â
Charles frowned when he heard that. In fact, his face darkened. âWhat kind of job do you intend to find Like the one that got you into trouble at the bar the last timer Selling your body?
Whitey smiled sweetly before saying âOf course, Iâm talking about being a sales representative. It will be best if I can find a real estate company with high capital. That way, the commission will be very lucrative With a grim expression. Charles complained. The commission may be high, but the basic salary is very low. You have neither experience nor contacts For the first two years, you can only depend on your basic salary Even though youâre staying at the Newton residence rent-free, your basic salary wonât even be sufficient to cover your daily expenses He cast a glance at his phone and continued. âI did say that I will provide you with a monthly allow that will be no less than your salary. If you arenât willing to spend the money, you can always save it. Onc year later, you will have more than enough to rent a shop lot.â
Whitney shook her head. âThatâs your money, Mr. Newton. I didnât earn it. If I use it. Iâll feel goalry it. Itâs better to use money that I have earned through my own hard work. Itâs more meanin Charles frowned when he heard what she said In this day and age, there are women who donât want free money?
about dat way âWhitney, have you lost your mind? You donât want free money? Then again. I wonât consider is free money. Now that you have married me, my family will no longer nag me to get married. You have also taken care of me, especially during the past few days. From now on. Iâll give you a hundred thousand every month as your remuneration. It isnât an allowance.â
A hundred thousand every month?
Whitney opened up the calculator app and began to calculate her monthly expenses.
If she kept a lid on her expenditure, she would be able to save more than a million in a years time.
Also, if she found herself a high-paying job, she might be able to save another two to three hundred thousand.
Her start-up capital would be secure.
âSince you say itâs my remuneration. Iâll gladly accept it. From now on. Iâll be your personal maid Iâll de whatever you want me to do, Mr. Newton. Otherwise, I wonât feel good taking the moneyâ
Charles burst out laughing.
He knew what she was thinking, but that did not annoy him. On the contrary, he found her adorable âFine. At least when I order you around, Iâll feel more at ease.â He chuckled and lifted up his left hand âCome and give me a massage.â
âPlease hold on for a while. Let me answer a call.â
With that, Whitney went to the balcony to answer her phone call.
Charles was speechless. How dare she say she will do whatever I want when she does something else second if she really was a maid, she would be hauled to the ancestral hall for a beating He was starting to get annoyed because his left arm was itching badly.
Unfortunately, his right arm was in a plaster cast. He had no choice but to wait for Whitney After an excruciating diree minutes, Whitney came back to the room happily She was darkfounded when she saw Charles darkened expression. He looked as if he wanted to eat her up alee âMi Newton, whatâs wrong? Are you having campe? Should I call for the docto Through gritted teeth, Charles said, âNo need fun cote bew Cave me a massa Just and relieve my in
