"Oh, that's a small sum! You should have told me about it earlier. I would have helped you with that." Mr. Woods pretended to be generous. "It's also okay if Sam helps you. Since you want to resign, I'll settle your pay tomorrow."

"Thank you, Mr. Woods."

"Don't mention it. I will give you a little more money. This would have been your grandmother's pension for all the years of service. You can use it to pay your school fees," Mr. Woods said.

Irene was extremely grateful. She immediately thanked him, "Thank you! I thank you on Grandma's behalf!"
