She added, "On that note, you never specified in your marriage contract that I could

marriage. I want to prove my worth. I can't be sponging off the Newton family now can I. Mr. Newton

Charles was rendered speechless

She does have the brains for business and a silver tongue to boot. Just look at how many lines My replace

"You can replace a job, but not something in sales. Cancel tomorrow's interview" replied Charles

His tone implied it was an order and not a negotiation

Perplexed. Whitney questioned, "Why?"

Charles explained, "Salespeople often have dinner meetings. It's already dangerous for a woman to get drunk in public, and you still have to make sure no one drugs your drinks. You could be putting your safety at risk before even making a cent. No amount of crying will save you then."

"I won't cry." Whitney grumbled quietly. Still, she did not refute his claims. She had to prepare herself adequately for those situations.

Before she could muster a suitable counterargument. Charles declared decisively, "That's that, then. You can look for another position and give up this salesperson role."

"Mr. Newton, this is my business-"

Her protests brought a frown to Charles face. He tossed his phone aside in displeasure and cut her off saying "I have an important virtual meeting with the company in half an hour. Help me change into a sit and bring me my laptop"

Whimney swallowed her discontent and replied. "Okay

Since confidential information would be discussed in the meeting. Whitney excused herself from Charles room. She grabbed a notebook and a ballpoint pen and headed to the garden, where she continued hunting for a jobs

Each time she came across a suitable job listing, she made detailed notes in her notebook

Chapter 722 The Jealous Housekeepers

While she was busy job hunting, she noticed two pair female loafers

Whiney raised her head and saw new young housekeepers

Can I help you with something?" she asked politely

One of the housekeepers, Haisley Zamora, shot Whitney an arrogant jealous ware

camped out in Mr. Newton's roo

Haisley demanded. "Are you the housekeeper who's always camped out him

The other housekeeper, Laura Inman, added, "Yes, thats her I saw her in the kitchen yesterday a bowl of lobster bisque for Mr. Newton

Whitney appraised the hostile housekeepers before replying firmly, "Tm a housekeeper, and I'm not here to seduce Mr. Newton. Please be more respectful,"

Haisley merely folded her arms across her chest and scoffed. "You're always dressed to the nines instead of wearing a housekeeper's uniform. We only need one look to know you have ulterior motives. Not seducing Mr. Newton, you say? Please!"

In fact, Whitney already knew the two housekeepers were here to pick a fight. She would not bother with social niceties if they were intent on causing trouble.

With that in mind, she said, "Mr. Newton exempted me from wearing a housekeeper's uniform. If you're unhappy about it, feel free to bring it up with him."

"You"

The two housekeepers were fuming.

Haisley spat. "Don't think you're something special just because you were assigned to Mr. Newton's room I may be young and relatively inexperienced as a staff at the Newton residence, but my words hold the most weight around here."

Laura, who was clearly sucking up to Haisley, boasted arrogantly. "Didn't you know our Haisley was recommended by the Newton family's most revered elder, Mr. Carlos Newton himself? She might well be the future Mrs. Newton! You'd do well to stay away from Mr. Newton. If you're foolish enough to try something outlandish, don't blame Haisley for punishing you. She can easily kick you out of the Newton residence and ruin your reputation."

The threat drew a smile to Whitney's face.

I trust Charles will never fall in love with a woman as stupid and big-headed as her

Whitney drawled. "I guess the two of you are itching for a fight, huh? Let's get right to it then I take on both of you at once. I grew up in the mountains, and I'm as tough as anyone can get. Do forgive me ill 1 accidentally injure either of you."

She was a kind person who never actively caused trouble, but that did not mean she Feed

The challenge from Whitney caused Laura na pale

A group fight could get one punished and even fired. Moreover, Whitney truly sounded like a a fighter. If they were defeated, they could lose both their pride and their jobs.

Cleaning a toilet was nothing compared to wearing a dress and getting photographed. It was simply humiliating

Nico shared Charles sentiments completely. That was why he would not expose Charles' embarrassing sick patient act

In the meantime, Zendaya wrapped her arms around the cast over Charles' right arm, pouting unhappily Tears welled in her red-rimmed eyes, and she grumbled through sobs, "It's all Uncle Nico's fault. Why did you have to hit him so hard?"

Nico's lips twitched with amusement. He was about to appease her with an apology when Zendaya continued, "Because of you, Uncle Charles can't carry out his bet! I'm so tired of waiting. When can I see Uncle Charles and Uncle Nico in dresses?"

The two men were struck speechless.
