Chapter 42 Please Buy Some Condoms for Me
Elizabeth's orders continued. In just one month, with her commission and base salary together, she got 10,000 dollars.
This was probably the most salary she had received since her internship.
After getting money, the first thing Elizabeth thought was to return some money to Hugo. Back in the apartment after getting off work, she took the elevator directly to Hugo's home on the top floor. Fortunately, they lived in the same apartment. Otherwise, she didn't know where to find him.
Elizabeth rang the doorbell of Hugo's house, but no one opened the door. She had to sit on the side step and wait for Hugo to return.
After waiting for a while, Hugo hadn't returned yet. Elizabeth felt that it was time to go back and cook, so she got up and walked towards the elevator.
As soon as she pressed the button, the elevator opened. Hugo appeared in the elevator in a black suit and leather shoes.
The two looked at each other face to face. Elizabeth smiled slightly, "You are finally back."
"Are you waiting for me?" Hugo was a little surprised when he looked at Elizabeth. Then he walked out of the elevator.
Elizabeth nodded, hurriedly took out a bulging kraft paper envelope from her bag, and handed it to Hugo, "There are five thousand dollars in it. I will pay you half first." "You can pay me half back so soon?"
"DL Estate's performance is good. I have orders to design every day. The commission for each order is relatively high." Elizabeth showed a smile on her face. Hugo smiled knowingly, took the envelope and stuffed it directly into his briefcase.
"Don't you count them?" Elizabeth asked back.
Hugo smiled and replied, "If the money isn't correct, aren't you afraid that I will come to you?"
"Hahaha." Elizabeth giggled.
"Come to my house for dinner tonight."
"Thank you, but I have to go home and cook dinner for my brother and his girlfriend." Elizabeth waved her hand and then pressed down the elevator.
Before the elevator went to other floors, Elizabeth quickly walked into the elevator when the elevator door opened.
Hugo looked at Elizabeth and said with a smile, "If you're available, you can come to my house to have a seat."
"Well, bye." Elizabeth waved her hand and replied.
After the elevator door was closed, Hugo remembered one thing and wanted to ask Elizabeth, but the elevator had already gone down.
He wanted to ask her what happened to her and her assistant, Ben, and why Hannah would say that they were in love.
Maybe he could ask her next time. Anyway, they were in the same company. Or maybe, he could ask Ben directly.
Hugo smiled helplessly. He didn't know why he suddenly thought of asking Elizabeth this question. At first, when he heard Hannah talking about it in the company, he didn't care. Why did he care now? Forget it! It should be just some rumors.
Hugo thought for a while, then turned around and returned to his home.
Elizabeth started washing rice and cooking when she got home. Her brother and Reeva were about to come home from getting off work.
The food was brought to the table, and the door was opened.
Elizabeth untied her apron and placed the bowls and chopsticks.
Anthony and Reeva walked in talking and laughing.
Elizabeth stood at the table and served the meal. Seeing that her brother and Reeva had bright smiles on their faces, she smiled and asked, "Brother, Reeva, is there any happy event for you today?" "Of course! Your brother has been promoted! He has been promoted to the position of editor-in-chief, then his salary will be doubled!" Reeva said with a smile from ear to ear.
Anthony was also very happy and said, "Tonight, I want to have a drink! Let's have a drink!"
Elizabeth congratulated her brother, "Brother, congratulations!"
Then, Reeva went to the wine cabinet to get the red wine.
The three ate together and clinked glasses together.
Reeva glanced at Elizabeth, and suddenly asked meaningfully, "Elizabeth, are you really planning not to work part-time at Ymay Club?" Since that night, Elizabeth sang there under the stage name "Candy". Many guests were impressed by her and wanted to hear her singing again.
Reeva didn't want to deny that Elizabeth's singing was really good. It was not an exaggeration to say that Elizabeth's voice was the sound of nature.
In fact, after the last time, Reeva didn't feel anything wrong when Elizabeth told her that she couldn't sing there. But in the past two days, her boss, Fernand, asked her to let Elizabeth come back and continue to sing. Fernand also proposed to increase Elizabeth's salary as long as she sang there.
If Elizabeth agreed to come back to sing, Reeva could also get dividends from it. After all, Elizabeth was brought into Ymay Club by her.
"No. That kind of place is really not suitable for me. The work arranges for me in the company is temporarily enough for me to spend." Elizabeth said contentedly.
Reeva smiled and then persuaded, "You can never make enough money! Elizabeth, don't you want to stay in BJ City for development in the future? Or, you just want to get over the internship. Then you will go back to your hometown to farm after graduate? You have to make some plans for yourself. You have to see more. Besides, if you still work at Ymay Club, I can be your backer. What are you afraid of?"
"Well, I think Reeva is right. Since you can make a thousand dollars for a night at Ymay Club, why not continue to sing? Anyway, you just sing and won't do other things. Reeva is also there. Don't worry!" Anthony also agreed with Reeva's words.
What they said made Elizabeth moved.
She, Elizabeth, was born in a rural area, had no family background, and only had a college diploma.
If she wanted to survive in BJ City, she had to make money to buy a house. She couldn't live with her brother and sister-in-law for the rest of her life!
"...Can I only sing twice a week? Just Friday night and Saturday night, okay? The company is closed every Saturdays and Sundays. I don't want to affect my work." Elizabeth looked at Reeva and asked. She had to sing there until two or three o'clock in the morning if she continued the part-time job.
Since Elizabeth had already agreed, Reeva immediately made a concession and promised, "This is absolutely no problem!"
"Reeva, I will leave my sister to you! You must protect my sister well! Don't let her be ruined by those bad men in that club!" Anthony said with a serious face.
Reeva was slightly drunk and smiled, "Elizabeth is also my sister! If I don't protect her, who else should I protect?"
Elizabeth smiled relievedly. It was nice to have her brother and sister-in-law to protect her.
After dinner, although Anthony and Reeva drank too much, they were not completely drunk.000
