Chapter 125:

Judy’s urgency was palpable as she asserted, “I’m genuinely serious.” She then patted her chest, her voice earnest. “I desire to serve your family to atone for the harm done. Let me comfort your heart on Joanna’s behalf, Mr. Owen.”

Raising an eyebrow, Jayden replied with a hint of detachment, “Keep your excessive sympathy to yourself. I have no need for anyone to comfort my heart.”

Despite his dismissive words, Judy nodded and continued unfazed, gracefully serving him a cup of hot tea. Her refined manners indicated a good upbringing, and her willingness to serve highlighted the effective training of the Foster family.

As Judy prepared to depart, Jayden halted her. “Wait, don’t leave just yet. If you’re truly keen to work, sign this contract so there will be no complications in hiring you.”

Judy beamed with happiness upon hearing this. “I’d love to sign the contract. How long do you expect to need my services?”

“One week,” Jayden answered.

“That’s far too short. A minimum of one month,” Judy exclaimed with enthusiasm.

Giving her a meaningful look, Jayden paused for three seconds. “Are you certain?”

Judy affirmed confidently, “Of course, I’m sure. If you find my work satisfactory, I’d be happy to stay on for a few more months.” She then shyly glanced at him, her cheeks flushed with red.
