Chapter 51
Elowen sauntered over to Evelyn, tugging on the hem of her dress, her big and shiny eyes looking up at her. "Granny, don't be so hard on mom. She works so hard. We dont need baby formula anymore. Granny, stop scolding mom"
Dorian broke free from Hertha's arms and toddled over to Evelyn. He raised his innocent little face and said in a soft voice, "Granny, when we grow up, we're going to make big bucks and buy you and mom a big house. Can you give mom a break, please?"
Atticus sat on the floor cushion, his baby lips pursed. After a pause, he said, I can be a hacker, I can support my siblings, granny and mom by hacking!"
Thalassa's heart melted at the kids words. Just as she was about to respond, the phone rang, and she went to the balcony to answer it.
Evelyn sternly told Atticus, "What do you know about being a hacker? Watch your mouth, especially in public. It's said that hackers make illegal money and can end up behind bars."
Evelyn wasn't trying to scare him; she was worried that he might go down the wrong path and land in hot water
Atticus lowered his head, his eyes full of disappointment, and stopped talking
"Alright, I'll be there tonight." After hanging up. Thalassa returned to the living room.
She smiled at Evelyn and said. "I can work tonight, so no need to worry."
"You should be more ambitious and stop stirring up trouble. You should set a good example for the kids "Evelyn sighed deeply
It wasn't that she didn't care about her daughter, but life was cruel. If she didn't push her, their family wouldn't make ends meet. There's really no other choice.
"I know, mom" Thalassa obediently responded.
After dinner, Hertha's parents called her to come home, so she had to leave
Evelyn stayed home to take care of the kids, while Thalassa went to Sapphire Skyline.
This time, the manager noticed an issue with her ID card and said, "Evelyn, this isn't you, right?"
Thalassa pursed her lips and said, a bit guilty. "That's my mom"
"You better switch back to your ID card Our boss made a new rule: everyone has to use their own ID card, no exceptions," the manager said.
Thalassa quickly took out her own ID and bank cards and handed them over for registration.
She had already made up her mind to use her own cards this time. She had learned from her previous mistake, she couldn't take chances or just opt for convenience, or she'd face bigger trouble down the line.
After registering her ID and bank cards, the manager gave her the uniform to change into.
It was a short skirt and a V-neck shirt
Thalassa actually wanted to refuse
But it was the shop s rule, she had no choice.
Her job was still to deliver goods to the private rooms and promote wine.
She served several rooms, but every time she tried to sell the wine, the customers would wave her away.
She had no choice but to leave the room, feeling defeated.
Suddenly, the manager led a line of ladies towards Box VB, and Thalassa ran into them head-on. The hallway was too narrow, so she stepped aside to let them pass first.
When the manager saw her, he said, "Thalassa, take them to Box VB. The customers inside requested it."
Thalassa blinked in surprise, stammering and at a loss for words.
She thought her job was just to deliver drinks and such, but now she had to deliver "women."
"What's the matter? Don't want to do it?" The manager's tone turned cold, seeing her standing there speechless
Thalassa quickly shook her head and said, "No, I'm just a bit surprised. I'll take them right away!"
She picked up the tray and led the line of ladies towards Box V8.
When she reached the door, she knocked, and a voice from inside said, "Come in."
