Chapter 114 Treating Her Like a Maid

Chloe blinked, confusion written all over her face as she asked, “Does this mean you’re terminating my contract?”

“There have been changes to your job responsibilities,” he stated firmly, enunciating each word with emphasis. “You are to report to the custodial department starting tomorrow.”

Chloe’s eyes widened slightly, and she forced a dry smile, “You must be joking with me, right?

“No, I’m not,” Joseph replied.

‘I’ve been too nice to her. She needs to be taught a lesson for quitting her job without any legit reason!’

Chloe’s expression froze.

“You want me to work as a janitor?!” she asked, her voice thick with disbelief.

‘Seriously? Is he out of his mind?’

While she was open to a change in her job role, the idea of becoming a janitor was difficult for her to accept.

“Well, there’s a chance you can come back to your original department, but that’ll depend on your performance,” Joseph said casually, admiring her gradually changing expression with an indifferent glance. His thin lips curved slightly, finally feeling some satisfaction.

“You can’t do this to me! I’ll tell Grandpa about it!”

“He may be able to protect you momentarily, but can he protect you for three years?”

With a swift movement, Joseph reached out and lightly pinched Chloe’s chin, his fingertips. cool against her skin as they glided with a tantalizing touch. His voice was filled with allure. and a hint of temptation as he continued, “Provoking me comes at a cost. Remember to behave yourself next time.”

Joseph’s voice was calm and composed, devoid of any discernible chill. However, once Chloe looked into his eyes, they felt like piercing daggers, penetrating deep into her soul with an intensity that sent shivers down her spine.

Just when Chloe was about to comply, her resistance manifested in her words instead. “What if I refuse? What if I insist on terminating the contract?”

A faint frown appeared on Joseph’s face as he spoke in a composed manner, “It appears you didn’t pay close attention to the contract. Allow me to refresh your memory. It explicitly states that only Party A has the exclusive right to terminate the contract and holds the power to alter your job position. As Party B, you can terminate the contract, but you’ll be liable for any losses

incurred on my part.

“And should I find your performance unsatisfactory, I can take legal action, engaging Samuel as my representation, which would ultimately leave you bankrupt, drowning in debt, and facing the potential risk of imprisonment if circumstances demand.”

Chloe clenched her fists. ‘So even if I know the truth, I still can’t run away from him. Why does misfortune constantly befall me?!’

If she could start over again, even if she vomited in the car that day, she would meticulously read and understand every word and symbol on the contract before signing it!

Regrettably, life offered no opportunities for do-overs. She had no alternative but to accept her circumstances.

Chloe let out a long sigh, her voice filled with despair as she asked, “When can I be transferred back to the marketing department?”

“As I said. It depends on your performance.”

They accompanied Harold at the hospital until 11 o’clock, after which Harold urged Chloe and Joseph to go home and rest.

Joseph agreed promptly without any objections and got up to leave. Chloe observed Harold’s condition, and after ensuring that he was fine, she left him to Patrick’s care.

Joseph walked ahead, while Chloe trailed behind him. Her mind was wrestling with whether she should rent a place of her own in the future. The reason she stayed with him was to flirt with him, but now, it seemed unnecessary.

Joseph turned his head and noticed Chloe’s troubled expression. His thin lips parted, saying, ”

Hurry up.”

“Okay.”

“When we get back, make me some sandwiches.”

“Okay…” RêAd lat𝙚St chapters at Novel(D)ra/ma.Org Only

“Are you not willing to?”

“I wonder. Have you been treating me as a maid since the beginning?”

After all, they had spent so much time together. They constantly saw each other, yet there had been no change in his attitude toward her.
