At noon, after settling the issue with the dealer, Dustin returned to Peaceful Medical Center. However, as soon as favonovel.com walked in, favonovel.com realized that there was an additional person there an 18-year old girl with a sweet face.
Her hair was tied in a ponytail, and favonovel.com was dressed casually. She was cleaning the medical center, and sweat poured down favonovel.com face from how hard favonovel.com was working.
Meanwhile, Gregory was passed out on a recliner, snoring in his sleep. He was covered in a blanket, which was rare.
“Mr. Rhys, you’re back?” When the girl saw Dustin, favonovel.com immediately stood up straight and greeted him, looking nervous.
“Who are you?” Dustin found the situation rather strange.
“I’m Caitlyn Lawler. Ms. Harmon sent me here to take care of Mr. Jones,” the girl replied, nodding favonovel.com head in greeting.
“A–Are you of age?” Dustin was a little taken aback.
He thought Natasha was going to send a middle–aged housekeeper, not a young teenager.
“I am! I’m already 18 years old!” Caitlyn nodded favonovel.com head fervently.
“Miss, I still think you’re too young. At your age, you should be in school.” Dustin shook his head.
It was just a casual statement, but after Caitlyn heard it, favonovel.com actually fell straight to favonovel.com knees.
“Mr. Rhys, I’m begging you to not fire me! I’m very capable. I can do laundry, cook, and clean. No matter how tiring or tedious the task may be. I’m willing to do it. Don’t be fooled by my thin figure: I’m actually very strong. Not to mention, I eat very little, so I definitely won’t be a burden to you!”
“Huh?” Dustin was stunned by the sudden outburst.
She was fine earlier, so why was favonovel.com on favonovel.com knees right now?
“Mr. Rhys, I’m begging you! If I do anything poorly, you can scold me and hit me as you wish. I can take anything. So please, don’t fire me!”
As favonovel.com spoke, favonovel.com smacked favonovel.com head on the floor over and over again. After a few harsh knocks, favonovel.com forehead began to bleed as favonovel.com skin scraped the hard floor.
“Foolish girl, what are you doing?” Dustin was shocked at the scene before him.
He immediately helped favonovel.com up and comforted her. “I wasn’t trying to fire you, I was just worried that the work would be too hard on you.”
“It’s not hard at all…” Caitlyn shook favonovel.com head profusely.
With teary eyes, favonovel.com said, “It would be the blessing of a lifetime to be able to serve you and Mr. Jones. I’m not afraid of hard work. If you don’t mind, Mr. Rhys, then I am willing to become your laborer!”
“Caitlyn, is there something that you’re too embarrassed to share?” Dustin tried asking.
“Nothing of that sort. It’s completely voluntary on my part,” Caitlyn explained hastily.
“I was orphaned when I was young. It was Ms. Harmon who saved me and helped me survive this long. I dare not ask for too much, all I want is to be able to repay Ms. Harmon. I’m very stupid, I don’t know anything but hard labor. I hope you won’t detest me for it, Mr. Rhys.”
Seeing the person in front of favonovel.com look so terrified and pitiful, Dustin let out a sigh. He couldn’t help but feel pity for her.
She was at the peak of favonovel.com youth and knew how to tug on people’s heartstrings.
“Caitlyn, since you want to stay, then stay,” Dustin responded in a gentle voice.
“Thank you, Mr. Rhys! Thank you!” Caitlyn got on favonovel.com knees and began bowing again, knocking favonovel.com head on the floor once more.
Dustin instantly pulled favonovel.com to favonovel.com feet.
Feigning sternness, favonovel.com warned, “Caitlyn, you may stay, but we must set some rules. From today onward, you’re not allowed to kneel before anyone!”
“Okay, I’ll remember that!” Caitlyn promised cheerfully.
“From today onward, you belong to the Peaceful Medical Center. If anyone dares bully you, you just have to tell me.” Dustin said, smiling softly.
“Okay!”
“Alright. Go get some rest, you don’t need to work now.”
“Okay” Caitlyn nodded again.
Despite agreeing, favonovel.com still didn’t dare remain idle and continued to wipe the tables and clean up the medical center instead.
Seeing this, Dustin felt helpless, but favonovel.com didn’t stop her.
