Chapter 16 Luminance Villa

• Jean sat in her wheelchair. A bitter smile formed at the corner of her lips.
• She had a luxurious life. Who would have thought she would end up this way?
• Lost like an orphan with nowhere to go.
• The sky darkened, and raindrops fell from the clouds, dripping on Jean.
• As the rain became heavier, she pushed her wheelchair in a hurry to the nearest shelter.
• "Miss, are you… do you need me to call for an ambulance?"
• A man in a suit stood before her, looking at her curiously.
• Jean paused. He looked familiar.
• She looked behind the man.
• Lavish ornaments hung around the door, giving off an extravagant aura. 
• 'Luminance Villa' was written on the entrance.
• I believe there wouldn't be another workplace more suitable for Ms. Eyer.
• Gigi's words spun in her head. She made up her mind.
• Because of Edgar, not a single company would hire her.
• But she had tens of millions in debt to pay off. Where else could she go?
• Gigi was right.
• Jean clenched her fists with hatred shining in her eyes. She refused to admit defeat!
• She was an Eyer.
• She wouldn't stay down when she fell.
• Making up her mind, she sat up straight in her wheelchair, giving off an intimidating air.
• "Hello, I'm here to apply for the job."
• In the office, the manager sat behind her desk. She peered at the formerly wealthy lady in front of her.
• She had taken in all types of people, but a former rich girl would be a first.
• She had a feeling that Jean would bring a lot to the table.
• "Ms. Eyer, are you sure?"
• Jean smiled. "I won't be here if I hadn't thought this through."
• The manager pushed a document toward Jean with a wrinkly hand.
• "If so, please sign this document."
• Jean flipped through the pages, noticing that all the conditions were unfair.
• "What do these conditions mean?"  
• The manager looked at her with disdain.
• She had seen countless girls with nowhere to go. But she hadn't seen one that didn't appreciate kindness.
• "Ms. Eyer, if I'm not mistaken, you have a large amount of debt, right? A waitress doesn't earn much. Are you sure about this?"
• Jean smiled coldly. "I've made myself very clear earlier."
• The manager clenched her jaw. If it wasn't for her potential to attract those men…
• "Alright then. Your base wage is a thousand. You'll have to work for the rest of it yourself."
• Jean entered the staff dorm at the villa.
• Just ten minutes later, news of the once noble Ms. Eyer becoming a lowly waitress spread through the staff.
• "What a nuisance. The manager told her what she needed to, but her attitude was horrible. Does she think she's still a noble miss? She's been abandoned now!"
• "That's right. What's with the high and mighty act when she's at the lowest she can be?"
• Jean became a hot topic in the makeup room.
• Yet she was unaware, resting quietly in her room.
