Watching Eleanor let out a long sigh, Hailey didn't feel too suffocated. She even laughed and comforted her, "Don't worry about it, I'll make the money back with just a few more bottles of wine sold."
But Eleanor still worried. She knew how hard Hailey had worked over the years to save up for the house.
It was all accumulated from tips when she outdrank customers. Little by little, she saved it up.
Although Hailey has been promoted to manager and doesn't need to drink with customers anymore, she still has to work late to make back that money.
Eleanor was worried about Hailey's health, but Hailey seemed not to care.
"What you should care about most right now is your emotional issues with Garett and Bernard, not worrying about me."
"I've cut ties with both of them, and now there's only you left by my side, of course I only care about you."
"Don't worry, I can stand up on my own if anything happens in the future."
Hailey was not afraid of being abandoned. She still trusted Austin, so she refused to dig deeper into the truth.
If one day she found that Austin had let her down or had hidden intentions, she would make a clean break.
Though gentle at heart, she has a tough disposition and is uncompromising. Once she decides to let go, she is far more decisive than Eleanor.
Hailey chatted with Eleanor a bit more, got up to cook for her, ate, and then hurried off to her evening shift.
Watching her leave, Eleanor's soft expression gradually faded.
She had planned to tell Hailey about her condition, but now Hailey has got some issues as well. If she tells her about her limited life at this time, she might not be able to take the blow.
Eleanor thought about it and made up her mind first. With Liana's miracle drug, she shouldn't just pass away all of a sudden, right?
Hailey hurried downstairs and saw several luxury cars parked outside.
Some car windows were open, and the bodyguards in black suits were sitting inside. She recognized them as Jason's men at a glance.
She thought Jason had left long ago, but he was still waiting outside the door. His persistence made Hailey admire him.
