Smiling sweetly, Alicia continued, "Mr. Jackman, I'm grateful that you're looking out for me but how could I endanger your company for my own personal benefits?"

She was turning down the offer but she had altered her words so that it wasn't a blatant rejection. Bruce laughed as he answered her.

"I won't force you against your will but I'm really happy I had the honor of meeting you, Miss Blanchard!"

The two of them exchanged a few greetings and he passed her six thousand dollars. She had reaped a bountiful harvest this trip and was very happy. After putting away the money, she shook his hand. "It's been a pleasure to meet you, Mr. Jackman. You're very kind! If there's nothing else, I'll take my leave first."

Before leaving, he passed her a business card and she accepted it respectfully. Originally, she was afraid it would be hard to leave when she saw his bodyguards. But although the man looked rough, he was unexpectedly better than most sanctimonious people.

Leaving the room and turning around the corner, Alicia's nerves eased down and she felt slightly relieved.

It was in every situation like this, she would feel that the world was actually still filled with good people!

Standing in a corner, Alicia rearranged the banknotes and put them away in different places before walking in the direction of the washroom. She had been holding her urine the whole night.

At the same time, Jeremy came back from smoking only to find no one in the room. He ran around for a bit before finally catching Alicia in the distance. She was smiling as she put two banknotes into her purse.

He raised his hand as he wanted to call out to her but his voice was stuck in his throat.

Stopping in his tracks, he put his hand down slowly. It was already past ten o'clock?

She had to work until late at night just to earn two hundred dollars, yet she was still so happy? In the past, she barely understood the value of money. She would dispose of a ten-thousand-dollar perfume after a single use just because she didn't like it.

However, Alicia at present...

Back then, he even asked her jokingly, "Don't you think it's a waste? Soon, I wouldn't be able to support such a pampered girlfriend!"

She, on the other hand, was so confident and proud. She replied, "A good horse must be matched with an equally good saddle. How could he be worthy of her if he didn't sacrifice a little? Anything that wasn't suitable should be thrown away even if it costs a fortune!"
