Anyone Dares Bully you, Call Uncles! novel Chapter 662

Could ghosts experience fear?

The unlucky ghost was frightened to death.

"What in the world! Who kicked me?!" The ghost in distress pulled himself up and shouted in anger.

The harem spirit and the cowardly ghost turned around and left, saying, "Let's go back to Lilly."

The female ghost in the wedding dress peeked her head out and asked, "Did you find it? Hurry up and tell me!"

She hurriedly caught up.

The unlucky ghost wiped his face and expressed his anger, saying, "They're a bunch of betrayers! They tricked their teammates!"

Lilly sat cross-legged on the mat, playing with building blocks.

Josh was absent-minded, occasionally glancing outside, wondering if the ghosts returned.

Blake discussed various topics, ranging from the issues of children's diapers when Barry and the others came to work in the city, to the medication for elderly individuals with high blood pressure, and the essential skills needed to become an electrician...

Finally, a figure appeared at the door.

Barry came back!

Upon seeing a stranger in the house, Barry froze for a moment and unconsciously halted before entering.

Blake glanced at his feet, smiled, and said, "Mr. Stark, you're back!"

Barry instinctively took a step back upon hearing Blake's words, as if he wanted to flee. However, he swiftly turned around and stood his ground, his face subtly displaying a trace of panic.

His wife immediately spoke up, "Barry, what are you doing? You're like a piece of wood, you're such a coward for running away when you see your boss"

Barry hesitated and addressed Blake, "Boss?"

Blake replied, "Well, I've come to offer you some work. It pays three thousand dollars a day, including food and shelter, but it might require you to be away from home for a while."

The eyes of the two elderly couple and Barry's wife widened in the room.

Three thousand a day!

Was the boss here for this reason?

Blake smiled faintly and continued, "However, the project is confidential, and you'll need to travel to different locations. You'll only be able to come back once a year. The project is expected to last one or two years."

Barry's face turned pale.

He had a hunch about something.

Having worked as an electrician for many years, he knew that a daily wage of 3,000 dollars was impossible. Even working with high voltage did not yield such high pay.

He stammered, "Wha... what project is it? Where would I have to go..."

His wife immediately scolded him, "Hey! Are you out of your mind? Didn't the boss just say it's confidential? Why are you asking questions at the door?"

"Quick, come inside."

The elderly woman quickly chimed in, "Oh, no, we'll bring the children outside for a while..."

From the moment Blake entered the house, he knew that Barry was the sole breadwinner for his family.

Barry's elderly father had suffered a stroke and was paralyzed, with limited mobility and requiring constant care. His elderly mother was frail and hunched over, only capable of doing simple chores.

The responsibility of supporting the family fell on Barry's wife, Keisha. She took care of their two children, managed the household chores, accompanied the children to school, bought groceries, and cooked meals...

This family had a challenging life, representing the struggles faced by countless migrant workers.

Pablo folded his arms, crossed his legs, and floated to the side, gazing out the window. He had already expected that this would be another issue...
