"What?" Lydia exclaimed. She held the phone with one hand, and immediately tom off the mask with the other, "Lawrence really did that?"
After getting Elizabeth's affirmative answer, she patted her chest and promised, "Don't worry! He went too far and I will definitely ask him."
John was reading the newspaper next to her. Seeing that Lydia frowned and looked very unhappy, he asked, "What's wrong?"
"Lawrence went too for! Elizabeth's friend was late. He not only left but also ordered lots of food and wanted the girl to pay the bill! Oh my god! How could he do that? He was obviously bullying that girl!"
John raised his eyebrows, "Didn't you say that he was a reliable man?"
Hearing this, Lydia immediately flushed and went berserk, "Oh, are you blaming me now? I just heard from others that he was a reliable man. Besides, his family is rich, so I naturally thought so!"
"But..."
"Stop!" Lydia reached out to stop John from talking with an unhappy face, "I'm ashamed enough! Lawrence simply gave me a slap in my face! Not to mention Evelyn, I even feel sorry for Elizabeth! No, I have to make a phone call to ask if there is something wrong with Lawrence." Five minutes later, Lydia hung up the phone, "John, it was Mrs. Meng who answered the phone just now. She said that Lawrence is quite satisfied with Evelyn. What's going on?"
When Elizabeth arrived at the gate of the school, Evelyn had been waiting for her there. As soon as she saw Elizabeth, she rushed over and said, "Elizabeth, you're here! Ha-ha!"
"You can just wait for me in the classroom."
"I am excited because of what you said yesterday!" Evelyn smiled and held Elizabeth's arm, "I'm just a dabbler. Do you really want me to work with you?"
"Of course." Elizabeth smiled, "Besides, how can't I know your level? The working hours are normal, and it's not a part-time job. Let's work hard together."
"Okay, you can trust me. Elizabeth, you really help me a lot. I'm short of cash right now. Woo-woo."
Elizabeth was amused and glanced at her, "Isn't it just because of what happened yesterday? Why are you short of cash? You little miser!"
"Don't mention what happened yesterday!" Evelyn let out a long sigh, "It's not just about that money."
Elizabeth was a little confused, "What's wrong? Do you need money for anything else?"
"Didn't I tell you about the heartless creditor yesterday? I don't even know how he will ask me to compensate him. What should I do if he asks me to give him lots of money?" As she said this, she sighed with grief, "D*mn, do you know how I feel right now? I feel that I'm walking on a steel wire so nervously."
"Oh, I'm sorry. I only thought about Lawrence and almost forgot him." Elizabeth thought for a moment and said, "How about... denying it? Just pretend that nothing has happened?"
In fact, she had no choice but to come up with such a bad idea, because she was a little worried that the man would ask too much after hearing what happened yesterday.
"Ha-ha..." Evelyn smiled helplessly, "How long have we known each other? Am I that kind of person? Since I did it, I won't deny it. I don't want to look down on myself. But..."
