Chapter 43 Get the Job Back
Richard had no interest in Matt, but he was really into the beautiful Amy.
'This little girl was actually very good-looking, but why were she pouting? She must be bullied by Matt.'
"Mr. Carter, I think you forget something. I am not employed by HD Group now. I've been fired. You can take your time to shop. I am leaving now." Amy was thinking of her friend Hannah, and Hannah was still in a stalemate with Kevin. She was worried that Hannah would be hurt.
Amy didn't want to see Richard because he talked in a very harsh way and Amy felt hurt by it, although he showed up every time to save her from danger, like a superhero.
"Wait a minute, who fired you? I am the boss of HD Group, so without my consent, no one dared to fire anyone. Take it easy. I am in charge of HD Group, and I will fire the one who fired you. Remember to show up at work tomorrow, and you can relax today." Richard seemed trying to be nice.
"I can get back to work tomorrow?" Amy heard that she could get back to work, and she became nice to Richard. In the R City, HD Group had the best salary and employee welfare. She would get a divorce after two years, so she needed to make a living herself, and HD Group was the best choice for her.
"If you won't come tomorrow, you will be recorded as absence. Make your own decision now." Richard looked at Amy's smooth hair, and he wanted to touch it. It had been a few days since he went home last time, so he or his body, wanted to have sex with her now.
But he thought that he should control himself, because he had restrained himself for twenty-eight years now, but he was almost out of control today.
"Sure, Mr. Carter. I will definitely come to work on time tomorrow." Amy was in a good mood now. After saying this, she went to find Hannah at once, and forgot that she still worn the new dress which she didn't pay for.
"Wait!" The shop assistant saw this, and followed Amy.
"What's the matter?" Richard asked the shop assistant.
"Mr. Carter, that lady didn't pay for the dress." The shop assistant nodded to Richard.
"It doesn't matter. I will pay the bill then and if she comes here to buy clothes in the future, show her the latest dresses and I will pay all the bills. But, don't let her know that it is me who pays. You guys figure a way out to keep it as a secret." Richard said and left.
The shop assistant was very surprised, and was wondering that the lady was not that beautiful, but why would Mr. Carter be fond of her? 'That lady was so lucky, and I had to gossip with others about this.' So she went back into the store happily, and gossiped with her colleagues.
"You! I took care of you a whole night out of kindness, but you slapped me without reasons, and I meet you now, so you can't run away from me." Kevin hugged Hannah tightly. Hannah couldn't loosen herself, so she pretended to be a pitiful girl.
"It's my fault and I will apologize for this. I slapped you before so do you want to slap me in return? Slap me then!" Hannah moved her face next to his, eyes closed.
'Slap me, and then leave me and my family alone.' Hannah thought.
Kevin was angry with her and wanted to laugh. 'Do I look like a bad person? And even let me slap you back!'
But Kevin reached out to Hannah's face, and when he touched her fair skin, he couldn't help caressing it.
Hannah felt surprised when Kevin caressed her face with his big warm hand, so she opened her eyes to check. "What are you doing?" Hannah was alert.
"I am slapping you!" Kevin said, and he felt that Hannah's skin was soft. He wondered what makeup she had been wearing, and what perfume she was wearing, too. It smelt good, and maybe he could ask her about the brand so that he could recommend it to his mom.
Kevin withdrew his hand reluctantly in the end.
Once he stopped touching her, Hannah kept a distance from him immediately, "Alright, you just slapped me back and we are even. You should leave me alone from now on." Hannah was about to leave since she was worried about Amy leaving with that jerk Matt.
"I want to ask you something. What perfume are you wearing?" Kevin followed her and asked.
Hannah stopped and turned around, "I never wear perfume!"
Amy met Hannah on the passage, and they hugged each other tightly as if reuniting after a long separation.
"What happened? Did he hurt you?"
"What happened? Did he hurt you?"
They asked the same questions and looked at each other with concerns.
"No, I am fine." They couldn't explain in details so they answered briefly.
Seeing that nothing happened, Amy and Hannah wanted to grab something to eat to calm themselves down.
"Richard, I think that they are very fun." Not far away, Richard and Kevin looked at the two ladies jealously. They were really good friends and cared about each other very much.
"Didn't you want me to buy you a drink? Let's go." Richard felt better because he ordered Amy to go back to work. In this way, he believed his life would become cheerful and bright again.
Amy brought all her stuff back to HD Group the next day, and she came very early because she didn't want to draw any attention from her colleagues.
After organizing all the things neatly, she began to clean the office.
Feeling happy about going back to HD Group, she couldn't help singing a song while sweeping and cleaning.
At this moment, some colleagues were coming one by one and they felt surprised to see Amy here.
Who was supporting Amy behind her back? Mrs. Jones, who had been working in the company for ten years, was fired because of Amy. How astonishing! So they realized they should treat her nicely now. However, someone just ignored this and wanted to bully Amy. She was Zoe, whose family was rich in R City, so she always looked down upon others, including Amy.
"Look! How hard she is working! Sweeping? Stop putting on a show. It's disgusting." Zoe walked towards Amy, and said evilly. She put her handbag on her desk, and looked at Amy with her arms crossed. Amy continued sweeping, and she didn't answer Zoe. To be honest, she didn't know what to say, so she thought she might as well ignore Zoe.
But Zoe wouldn't let her go easily, and she was pissed off seeing Amy didn't reply. So she walked towards Amy and left many dirty footprints on the clean floor on purpose.☐☐☐☐☐☐☐
