In the Lap of Luxury

Chapter 473 I Quit

Kayla was truly frightened. There wasn't a way out for her.

"Are you sure?" Grace asked.

Kayla's face lit up when she saw that Grace had relented. She quickly replied, "I'm sure! I'll do anything as long as you give me another chance."

Grace gave it some thought. "Are you sure you won't regret it?"

"Yes, I'm sure."

"Let me think about it."

Kayla felt as if a weight had been lifted from her chest. "Thank you, Ms. Lewis. Thank you!"

Kayla slumped to the floor after Grace left. Her back was already covered in sweat. She smacked herself on the head remorsefully.

Why had she signed with Amirate Corporation back then? Luckily, she still had a chance. As long as Grace didn't stop giving her resources, she would try her best to make enough money to terminate the contract and get out of there.

Kayla figured she would settle the score with Grace after she got out of her contract.

The future Kayla had envisioned was nice, but Grace had already anticipated that. The following day, Kayla was assigned her new job.

She blew up as soon as she saw what it was.

"What? You're making me the receptionist?"

Luke placed the receptionist's uniform before her and said, "It's Ms. Lewis' order." Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org exclusive © material.

"I'm a celebrity. I can generate a lot of profit for the company. What is the meaning of this? Who would even want a job like this? I'm not doing it. I'll talk to Ms. Lewis about this."

Luke said politely, "Ms. Lewis has a busy schedule. She might not have the time to talk with you, Ms. Green.

"Besides, the pay for a receptionist is six thousand per month. It may not be as high as that of a celebrity's, but you'll be able to pay for basic living expenses just fine. "

"Six thousand for basic living expenses? Are you joking, Mr. Ziegler? I made several million dollars a month at my previous company. Six thousand isn't even enough for lunch."

Luke replied with a stiff smile, "If this position doesn't suit you, I'll have to move you to another post. For example, we have a vacancy in the cleaning department. But that position's pay is even lower than six thousand dollars. Are you sure you want that?"

Kayla was on the verge of losing her mind.

"Tell Grace to get over here. I want to talk to her personally. She's basically trying to kill me. Does she just want to humiliate me? I'm not going to subject myself to this.

"I'll scrape together every penny I have to repay the 50-million-dollar penalty. But I'll never be a receptionist or a cleaner. Dream on!"

Kayla's voice was very loud. Many of the people in the office started to look at them and whisper under their breaths.

Kayla's fury grew when she felt their eyes on her.

"What are you looking at? Go away! I quit! I quit!"

Coincidentally, Grace happened to be passing by at that moment. The crowd dispersed when they saw her.

Kayla spotted her, too. She called out to Grace, "Ms. Lewis, I don't want to be a receptionist. I don't want to be cleaner, either."

Grace ignored her and walked into the elevator.

Luke adjusted his glasses and said, "Ms. Green, just do your job. Maybe Ms. Lewis will let you back into the talent department someday.

"But if you insist on making a scene and causing trouble for Ms. Lewis, you might really just be cut off."
