Angeline rushed toward his retreating back and blurted out, "Can I get a raise?"
Jay's back was slightly stiff, and his eyes were cold.
It had been two years since she left. He now created a n opportunity for her to get along with the children. H e gave her an inch, but she wanted a mile.
Did this girl throw her dignity and morals all the way t o Java Island?
"Be competent in this job and then come and talk to m e about a salary increase."
"Oh."
Angeline was ecstatic. She turned around and skipped upstairs. The whole attic shook from her skipping.
"Is there an earthquake?" The children opened the study door and ran out.
They saw Angeline skipping toward them like a rabbit.
"Hi!" Angeline waved her hand at the door, smiling as bright as the sun. "From today onward, I'll be your homework tutor."
Baby Robbie and Baby Zetty were dumbfounded.
"Teacher Whatever, are you... Sure... You can help us?"
Angeline nodded. "Of course, I was really good with m y homework when I was young."
Baby Robbie and Baby Zetty had sly smiles on their faces. "Welcome Teacher Whatever." The two children turned and entered the study.
Jenson leaned on the door lazily and kindly reminded Angeline, saying, "Pretty aunty, my younger brother and sister have broken 13 famous teachers. Are you sure you want to tutor them with their homework?"
Angeline raised her fingers. "Wow, 13? There are not enough fingers to count."
She was shedding tears in her heart. How could her little devils be like this?
Did they not understand the reasoning behind respecting their teachers?
Jenson turned and entered the study.
The three children were seated around the desk.
