Still Wanna Escape After Stealing My Heart? novel Chapter 1469

Jane did not let go of the bucket, but instead pleaded," Look, ma'am, I can pick it up. Please just give me a chance. I need the money. Eight hundred a month would mean so much to me."

Alex watched in pain, feeling as though there was something stuck in his throat and in his heart.

"Let it go, I'll take you in. Just let the bucket go first," the owner said.

Jane set the bucket down and looked at the owner in joy.

"I can tell that life hasn't been easy on you. Our restaurant doesn't usually accept pregnant employees. After all, we can't afford the consequences if you are to bump into something and get hurt. We'd much rather have a sixty-year-old lady to wash our dishes with a higher pay instead of hiring you," the owner continued.

"I can take care of myself, ma'am. Even... Even if something is to happen, I... I won't come after you. Please believe me. I'm not young anymore and I went through a lot to keep this child, I will definitely take care of it--"

The owner interrupted Jane and said, "I'll take you in! But considering the fact that you are pregnant, I can't let you work long hours. You will come to work for

half a day everyday and I'll pay you six-hundred every month. The job is yours if you are willing to take it."

"Six-hundred?" Jane swallowed hesitantly. Eighthundred had already been insufficient, and now the owner was only willing to offer her six-hundred. She still wanted to fight for the eight-hundred. "Can I..."

"Forget it, forget it. It's out of my place to hire a pregnant woman like you to begin. All I said was that you get six-hundred a month for working half-days only. We are both women, so I couldn't help myself when I see how desperate you are, when in reality I couldn't possibly hire you."

"I'll take it! I'll take it, even for six-hundred! I'll show you how good I am at this, ma'am. I will do well. Just for six-hundred!" Jane agreed urgently.

"..." The owner paused for a moment before saying," Very well then. Come in with me. Your pay for this month will be calculated from today onward, and you should get it by the end of the month."
