Invincible! This person has lived for a billion years

Chapter 29: These three girls are really not easy to mess with.

Lila truly had never seen someone as arrogant as William.

Just now he was so decisive in his rejection, and now he's saying things like this.

Claiming to be the first one to sign up, as if he was endlessly charming?

Lila shot William a sidelong glance.

Even if he truly radiated infinite charm, that was nothing to boast about. He was still single, after all!

"Emily, let's go!" Lila helped Bella towards the exit of the bar.

William stood up as well, asking, "Do you need me to escort you?"

After all, it was quite late, and in William's view, it could be dangerous for women to walk alone at night.

"We're fine!" As Lila supported Bella into the corridor, her words had barely landed when a young man, with tattoos of a demon, and a wicked grin on his face, blocked their way.

"Pretty ladies, leaving so soon? Why not have a couple more drinks with me?"

Before William could react, Maria was already striding towards them.

Throughout the night, she had been watching this table closely. She didn't want Bella and her friends to have any trouble in her place, not even a small unpleasant incident would be good.

"Get out of the way!" Lila glared coldly at the young man.

The young man snickered weirdly, saying, "Missy's got a temper, I li—"

"Ugh!"

His words came to an abrupt halt with a muffled groan. contemporary romance

With one hand supporting Bella, Lila swiftly punched the young man in the abdomen with the other. Her swift movements suggested she was trained.

The punch was strong, and the young man, who appeared robust, was immediately unable to speak from the pain, clutching his abdomen and doubling over.

"Scram!" Lila ordered coldly, then continued guiding Bella towards the exit.

The young man's friends, who had been watching from the sidelines, stepped forward, their eyes filled with menace.

Maria was quick to act, striding forward and snapping, "Zachary, what do you think you're doing? Sit down!"

Despite being a woman, Maria managed the bar and had her own reputation. These hooligans all knew who ran the bar, and at Maria's scolding, they were at a loss for what to do.

At this moment, a man in a suit also approached – Maria's husband, Caleb.

Caleb immediately grabbed the young man, Zachary, by the hair, glaring at him and asking, "Have you had too much to drink?"

"Caleb... I'm sorry, I drank too much!" Zachary didn't even have the courage to meet Caleb's gaze and kept apologizing, "I'm sorry!"

"You're really drunk, aren't you? Not even knowing who to apologize to!" Caleb let go of his hair, and with a stern look, he commanded authority.

Zachary, bearing the pain in his abdomen, bowed to Lila: "I'm sorry, miss! I was wrong!"

Lila's expression softened slightly, "Nevermind." Then, guiding Bella, she made her way out.

Caleb turned to William and said, "You're William, right? Come help me see these ladies off."

William nodded; he had met Caleb yesterday during his job interview.

Outside the bar, Caleb apologized to Lila and Emily again and asked if they needed a designated driver, until Lila said she hadn't been drinking, then Emily helped Bella while Lila went to drive the car.

Upon seeing Lila's car, Caleb broke out in a cold sweat. He ran a bar and heard some rumors and gossip from time to time.

It wasn't about how great the car was; it was about who it belonged to.

The heiress of the Carter family!!

If anything had happened just now, it would have been more than he could handle.

If Lila had gotten into any kind of trouble, his bar would probably have to close its doors the next day. Thankfully, the situation was handled in time.

Once Bella was settled in the car, Caleb stayed put, repeatedly bowing and apologizing. Only when the car's taillights disappeared from his sight did he straighten up and wipe the sweat off his brow.

William had a poker face throughout, just watching Caleb's performance.

"William, right? Do you know the three ladies who just left?" Caleb had to ask this question; who knows, William might also have significant connections!

"I suppose you could say that. We're from the same school," William replied.

"Caleb asked, "Is the lady who fought back earlier by any chance from the Carter family?"

"Right, Lila," William confirmed. "The other two girls are Bells."

Caleb swallowed hard, "Do you know who they are? The heiress to the Carter family and the two from the Bell family, holy cow! It's really them!"

William remained silent, pretending to know nothing.

"You're from the same school and you don't know their status?" Caleb lit a cigarette, shaken from the earlier scare. He needed someone to talk to for some relief.

William shrugged, "I only know they're very rich. I don't really know them that well."

"Bullshit! If you were close to them, would you need to work in a dump like this?" Caleb retorted, "You've heard of Whitestone Group, right? The world's largest media and entertainment company."

William shook his head again, "I just came out of the mountains, this is the first time I've heard about it."

"Just came out of the mountains?" Caleb glanced at William, "Then you definitely wouldn't know about the Carter family, forget it, let's go back inside." At that moment, he felt like he was wasting his breath on William, who probably didn't realize that those three ladies were the dream girls of countless men.

Anyone who managed to win their favor could live a life of luxury.

Caleb went back into the bar, starting to gossip with Maria about what he just found out. Maria was taken aback when she heard, glad nothing happened tonight.

"William, come take a break," Maria called to him after finishing her chat with Caleb, smiling as she asked, "How was your first day at work?"

"Not bad," William smiled back.

Maria continued, "Since I've promised you, I'll do my best to keep my word. Your probation period is over. Your base pay will be six thousand dollars plus commissions. How does that sound?"

"That works for me!" William was satisfied with this salary, considering that they had initially spoken about a base pay of eighteen hundred dollars.

"Then we'll sign a contract tomorrow. You're still studying, right? At least commit for a year. If you do well, I'll give you a raise every month."

Maria saw potential in William. His performance tonight was exceptional. If William had complained about the salary, she would've given him a raise instantly. But now, she was worried that William might quit suddenly.

This was a real gem who could handle his liquor and was an expert at all sorts of games. If such a talent were to be poached by someone else, it would be a great loss.

People working in bars usually don't sign contracts, but William was a bit different. They had to sign a contract; otherwise, Maria wouldn't feel secure.

"Sure," William had planned to continue working anyway. A year was nothing to him, so he casually agreed.

Regarding the contract, if he really didn't want to work anymore, no one could stop him. He figured no one in the world could truly bind him.

Maria nodded and said, "Add me on WhatsApp, and give me a bank account. I will transfer your salary there."

"I don't currently have a bank account. Is there another way?" William asked, somewhat helplessly.

Maria was surprised, thinking to herself that this guy must indeed have come from the mountains. She responded, "When payday comes, I'll write you a check. You can take the check to the bank to withdraw the money. When you're at the bank, it would be a good idea to ask the staff to set up a bank account for you."

"Alright, but about WhatsApp?" William was a bit confused. He pulled out his phone and saw the WhatsApp app, but he had been using Google all day and hadn't used WhatsApp.
