But I had to talk to Nancy about this.
The next morning, I went to the studio and met Nancy at the door. She was surprised to see me, "Are you going to back to work as regular?"
Hearing her words, I was a little ashamed. I pulled her into the office and said, "Well... I may not come to the company recently, but I will make the design of the office building."
I thought, even if I worked as a servant for Patrick, he also needed time to sleep. I could sleep a few hours less to do my work.
Nancy was not surprised to hear my words. "Is it because of Patrick?"
"Yes." I nodded. "I think he needs someone to take care of him recently. I want to take care of him."
I didn't know if I could take care of him.
I just want to stay with him.
Although Nancy was a little tangled, she still said, "It's okay. You can go first. I will pass on my work to you, but I hope that your efforts will be rewarded."
"They will."
I nodded.
Nancy crossed her arms in front of her chest and looked at me. "My silly girl, you leave a position as a brilliant designer but insist on working for a man as a servant. Since you have come to this situation, I really can't criticize you anymore. If he doesn't treat you well in the future, I will be the first to stop him."
"Thank you."
I opened my arms and hugged Nancy.
After all, I didn't know how long it would take to take care of him.
When I went back to the office to pack my things, I was thinking about who I should go to for achieve this.
If I went straight to Patrick, he would definitely reject me.
After thinking about it for a long time, the only one I can reach for help was Ned.
I packed up my things and went to Ned's house again.
But when I got out of the taxi, I saw Melissa in front of me make a phone call. I looked at her from a distance. Her face was full of anger, and she was shouting at the phone.
She has her back to me.
I walked over and heard her talking into the phone.
"We helped you so much in the past. Now my Patrick is just having a leg broken, not a high paralytic position. You said you don't want to do anything about it? How about this? If his surgery is successful and he is cured, don't blame me for not helping you in the future!"
"Who was she speaking to?" I murmured in my mind.
It seems to have something to do with Patrick?
I just stood a few meters away from her and listened.
Melissa stamped her feet angrily as if the person opposite her had said something. "You grew up with Patrick. Now is the time when he needs someone to take care of him most. Don't tell me those cliche. Just tell me whether you go or not!"
She paused. When the person on the other side finished, she said, "Well, Kelsi, our Cowell Family will never contact you in the future!"
After that, she hung up the phone directly.
She was angry and wanted to get on the car.
She saw me as soon as she turned back.
Kelsi?
I combined with what she had just made the call and immediately understood what was going on. I hurried over to her.
Melissa's face was not good when she saw me. "This is our home. What are you doing here!"
"Melissa," I was not angry. I walked to Melissa and said, "I want to ask you something."
"What?"
"Yes, of course! I promise!" I nodded desperately and didn't forget to ask, "How much will I be paid? Give me some so that when he pushes me away, I can have a reason not to leave."
Melissa thought for a moment and stretched out five fingers.
"Five thousand?" I asked.
"Fifty thousand!"
After Melissa finished, she looked at me with a look of despised.
It was as if I was looking down on the Cowell Family.
In fact, I said this on purpose. I knew that Melissa was generous, so, of course, she would not give me 5,000 yuan.
After I heard it. I pretended to be surprised and said with a smile, "Thank you, Melissa. \ When will you tell him? I'll get prepared right away."
Melissa really cared about her son. She took out her phone and said, "I'll tell him right now."
When Melissa told Patrick, I did not hear any opposition from Patrick.
It seemed that he had realized that there was no way to take care of his life by himself.
After Patrick agreed, Melissa took a set of servants' clothes from Ned's house and gave them to me. She also gave me fifty thousand yuan on the spot and told me to go to Patrick's tomorrow morning!
Although Melissa asked me to go tomorrow morning.
But I was not in a hurry.
In the afternoon, I took Lacy to the kindergarten and told the teacher that I had something to do recently, and I would let Lacy come to pick up Glenn.
Then, I worked for another two days in the company.
It was not until the third day that I packed up my things. Wearing the servant's clothes, a mask and a hat, I wrapped myself up tightly and came to the manor in the suburbs of Cowell Family.
