Bride Behind the Mask novel Chapter 142

Marguerite was instantly hooked.

Working only four hours a day for a base pay of three grand?

In places like this, booze usually cost more than five times the market price.

And a 20% commission? That's a killer paycheck!

Marguerite had never been in a place like this and naturally, she was a bit put off.

But to make a living, she had to suck it up and do it, even though she was reluctant.

With that thought, she dialed the number on the job ad.

A woman answered, and Marguerite got straight to the point. The woman directed her to the office on the second floor of the bar.

The office door was open, and the woman was puffing away on a cigarette in her chair.

As Marguerite walked in, the woman took a drag and started coughing, "You're Marguerite?"

"Hi Lily, I'm the Marguerite from the phone call. I'm here for the sales job."

Seeing Marguerite's look, Lily was taken aback.

"Listen, lady, I'm running a business here. Why do you think I need female sales? Men are visual creatures. If they see a pretty face, they'll buy more booze. But with your look, who would want to buy booze from you? Just get out of here!"

Marguerite couldn't argue with Lily's words and simply left, deflated.

She walked out of the bar in a daze, passing by the ad in the window again.

The lights inside the bar were so bright that the glass was practically reflective.

Marguerite turned back to see her ugly reflection in the window and made a risky decision.
