BookAmazoneChapter 588 Knowing his intentions, I didn't want to spend too much ttalking to Mr. Webb.

He questioned how I dared to ask for a month's salary in advance. Mr. Webb also said that if he made an exception for me, it would complicate things if other people did the snext time.
Then, he accusedof being selfish and that I did not have the company's best interest. Because of that, I resigned.
When I resigned, Mr. Webb also said that employees likewere not beneficial to the company. If I left, it meant they would have extra capacity to hire even better employees. And yet, here he was now, trying to poachagain.
Mr. Webb asked in disbelief, "You're doing well? Are you sure you're not lying? I remember people said that your husband treated you poorly and that he doesn't give you any allowance..." Mr. Webb was aware of my situation, but he was unwilling to help me. It was because he was certain that even if he rejected my request and refused to help, I would still not leave the company.
I chuckled and replied, "That was true in the past." Mr. Webb asked, "Does he treat you better now?" I replied honestly, "No, but I got a divorce." Hearing that, Mr. Webb sounded happier. He asked, "Does that mean you can cto work now?" I had a great work ethic. In the past, I couldn't work in the office and had to work from home. Even then, f.did a great job at my work. Once a task was assigned to me, they didn't have to orry about it.

I immediately rejected him. I said, "Mr. Webb, I haven't agreed yet. It's not very polite of you to jump into these arrangements now, don't you think?" Noticing my icy tone, Mr. Webb advisedand said, "It's very kind ofto be willing to give you a job, Annalise You must know that housewives find it hard to reintegrate into society. Even if thet
found a job, it would only be the kind of job with basic responsibilities and the lowest pay. "I'm only willing to hire you into an important department of the el.no
company because we used to work together Also, your salary may not be as high as that of the other om employees, but it's much better than that of the other housewives. If you're smart, you would know to take hold of this opportunity." Then, Mr. Webb added proudly, "Give it sthought."
