If she kept working in the sanitation office, she would inevitably be given preferential treatment, and the
other employees would surely look askance at her.
“No, I want a change in environment,” said Serenity.
“Is that so?” The director thought that the person behind Serenity must have offered her a decent job,
so he approved Serenity’s resignation without much ha ssle. He did not deduct any of her salary for the
time off she took and even paid her an extra month’s worth of salary. He told the financial department
to process the payment immediately.

But she could not.

When Serenity got back to the Valor Residence, she saw Jackson sitting on the sofa as soon as she

“I’m not used to being driven around,” she replied.
“I’m glad you’re back. The driver said he didn’t get a clear view of what bus you got on, so if you had
come back a quarter of an hour later, I would have searched the whole city for you,” Jackson said
casually, as if it was just an everyday conversation
By was startled, “Searched the whole city… fur me?” Thai’s clearly overreacting.
“Didn’t I tell you to get plenty of rest? What were you doing at the sanitation office?” he asked after
telling the maid to bring over the medicine and bandages she had to change daily.
I went to quit my job,” she answered truthfully. He would probably find out anyway even if she did not
