Chapter 582
Knowing his intentions, I didn’t want to spend too much time talking to Mr. Webb.
I replied, “I’m doing okay.”
When Steven and I divorced, I didn’t take anything with me. All I did was request a month’s salary in advance. Not only did he reject my request, but he also lectured me.
He told me that the economy was bad and claimed it was merciful of him to be willing to hire a housewife like me. He questioned how I dared to ask for a month’s salary in advance. Mr. Webb also said that if he made an exception for me, it would complicate things if other people did the same next time.
Then, he accused me of being selfish and that I did not have the company’s best interest. Because of that, I resigned.
When I resigned, Mr. Webb also said that employees like me were not beneficial to the company. If I left, it meant they would have extra capacity to hire even better employees. And yet, here he was now, trying to poach me again.
Mr. Webb asked in disbelief, “You’re doing well? Are you sure you’re not lying? I remember people said
that your husband treated you poorly and that he doesn’t give you any allowance…”
Mr. Webb was aware of my situation, but he was unwilling to help me. It was because he was certain that even if he rejected my request and refused to help, I would still not leave the company.
I chuckled and replied, “That was true in the past.”
Mr. Webb asked, “Does he treat you better now?”
I replied honestly, “No, but I got a divorce.”
Hearing that, Mr. Webb sounded happier. He asked, “Does that mean you can come to work now?”
I had a great work ethic. In the past, I couldn’t work in the office and had to work from home. Even then, f.did a great job at my work. Once a task was assigned to me, they didn’t have to
orry about it.

I recalled my work arrangements at Huxham Corporation, and then I said, “Yes.”
Mr. Webb asked, “In that case, can you come to work tomorrow? But let me be upfront with you.
“Since you’ve resigned from our company before, we won’t be able to offer you a high salary now that you’re returning. We’ll offer you the same rate as when you first joined us.”
It was clear he wanted me back as cheap labor.
I immediately rejected him. I said, “Mr. Webb, I haven’t agreed yet. It’s not very polite of you to jump into these arrangements now, don’t you think?”
Noticing my icy tone, Mr. Webb advised me and said, “It’s very kind of me to be willing to give you a job, Annalise You must know that
housewives find it hard to
reintegrate into society. Even if thet
found a job, it would only be the kind of job with basic responsibilities and the lowest pay.
“I’m only willing to hire you into an important department of the
el.no
company because we used to work together Also, your salary may not be as high as that of the other employees, but it’s much better than that of the other housewives. If you’re smart, you would know to take hold of this opportunity.”
Then, Mr. Webb added proudly, “Give it some thought.”
I chuckled. I could tell that Mr. Webb never respected any of his employees.
