Chapter 49 Why Don't You Try to Please Me?
"No money," Gwenyth answered Edison's question with two words.
Yes, no money.
Not only did they have no money, but they also owed a lot of debt.
For the past four years, her family had been hiding everywhere.
Sometimes they couldn't even afford food and clothing, let alone college.
"Anything else?" Edison looked at her silently, suddenly stretched out his hand to grab her wrist, and pulled her closer to him.
She was pulled down and leaned on his shoulder.
"What are you doing?" She wanted to back away, but he hugged her.
He put his arms around her back, hugging her tightly, "Why don't you try to please me? I can give you the job you want."
Gwenyth was amused.
"Edison, now you not only hire me to help you chase girls, but you also want to hire me to work for you?"
Edison found her words harsh.
"Can't you?"
"Sorry, I don't want to."
Even if she couldn't find a suitable job, she wouldn't work for Edison. When the agreement expired, he would probably get what he wanted, and then hold a wedding with Nancy.
At that time, she'd better take the money and leave, and stay far away from him.
"I'll give you time to think about it." Edison let go. She immediately backed away a few steps, keeping a distance from him.
"Anything else?"
"Yes." Edison leaned back, looking a little tired, "I have a headache. Give me a massage."
Gwenyth put the drawing book on the coffee table, took two steps forward, sat next to him, stretched out her hands, and massaged his head.
Her massage skills were not good and her force was uneven.
He felt uncomfortable, and quickly waved her hands away, "Forget it. Geo and run a bath."
Gwenyth couldn't wait to go.
She got up quickly and went upstairs with her drawing book. She went to the master bedroom to run a bath. Before Edison came up, she quickly slipped back to her room and locked the door.
She was about to take a shower and go to bed when her phone rang suddenly.
It was Ursula.
She picked it up, "Mom, why haven't you slept yet?"
Ursula's anxious voice came from the other end of the phone, "Gwen, something happened here. Can you come over?"
"What happened?"
"Susie and I were arrested. They said Susie was stealing."
After asking where they were, Gwenyth picked up her bag, opened the door, and rushed out.
She ran up the stairs and bumped into Edison who was going upstairs.
When he was knocked back by her, he took a step back and held one hand on the handrail of the stairs to stabilize his body.
"You're so reckless. What are you doing?" He got a little angry and growled at her.
"I'm sorry. I didn't mean to. Something happened and I have to go out." She walked around Edison and hurried downstairs.
"Where are you going?"
Gwenyth didn't respond, walking quickly.
Edison followed and stopped her at the door, "What happened?"
"Something happened to my family. My sister was accused of stealing things. They have been detained and not allowed to leave. I have to go there now." Gwenyth wanted to shake off Edison's hand, but he held her tightly.
