Chapter 566 Taking Out a Sum of Money
Is Jenny quitting her job?
After she finished saying that sentence just now, I stood stiffly for a while, incredulously asking her, "Why? Is there something unsatisfactory about the job here?"
Preparing three meals a day for the family is indeed an extra job for a professional nanny, but she initially volunteered to do it, and Iam grateful to her for that. I have even drafted a new contract for her, marking double the salary
But I haven't received my new contract yet, and she said she was going to resign?
I hurriedly patted Jenny's back and told her that I could help her reduce her workload. If she was threatened by anyone outside, I could also help her solve it. I would definitely not let her suffer any harm on her way to work again
"If you don't want to tell me what happened, I promise I won't ask again. But please believe me, I will also make sure to protect your safety."
I held Jenny in my arms like comforting a sister until her emotions calmed down, and then I took
a tissue from the coffee table and handed it to her
She looked at me with a bit of embarrassment, at the fabric of my dress stained by tears. After a moment of silence, she finally gathered the courage to speak upNôvelDrama.Org content rights.
"Madam, it's not for any reason you might think
I mean... I resigned solely because of the family's circumstances."
Under Jenny's slightly evasive gaze, I finally learned the other half of the story that she didn't tell me on the day of the interview
"T used to help my parents take care of my younger siblings since I was little. The reason behind it was not only because my mother was in poor health, but also because my father had a gambling and drinking problem. Whenever he lost money from gambling or had been drinking, he would come home and physically abuse my mother and sister."
At that time, my younger sister couldn't walk, my younger brother was still in diapers, and my mother was bedridden due to illness. I could only take care of them alone. At the age of twelve, I had to lie and pretend to be sixteen
years old, so that I could go to school and work at the same time to support the family
As she spoke, Jenny's eyes were almost lifeless, and her hands kept twisting the tissue in her palms, making it impossible for people to bear watching her without feeling sorry for her
I held her hand and whispered to her, "But you did well, those difficult days are already behind you, you even graduated successfully from Princeton. I will also give you a raise, you can generously use this money to let your mother and siblings live a good life, why quit?"
"But my father hasn't changed a bit over the years!"
Jenny burst into tears again, covering her face
"T only found out yesterday when I got home
that he had accumulated another gambling debt
If he can't pay it off, our whole family won't be able to stay in New York anymore. My mother's health is deteriorating, and my younger brother and sister are still in school. If they leave New York, I have to go with them to take care of them. I couldn't help but argue with my father yesterday, and he hit me, but I have no choice..
I still have to go back and take care of them. I can't just watch my family suffer."
The most unbearable thing in this world is the tearful eyes of a young girl
She said she couldn't just stand by and watch her family suffer, so how could I bear to just
stand by and watch this friend I had recently
met fall into despair?
I comforted Jenny, but I didn't immediately reject her resignation. I just asked her to wait a
little longer: "We will find a way, Jenny. Don't worry, I will figure out a way for you to stay in New York."

That evening, after Aaron returned home, in front of Jenny, I did not directly explain the ins and outs of the situation to him. I just used my eyes to signal him not to ask too much, and then invited Jenny to eat the dinner he brought back together
It was not until Jenny went back to the room to conduct tonight's touch training for the children that I took Aaron back to the bedroom and retold Jenny's story to him from beginning to end
"T didn't want Jenny to leave."
After the story was finished, I was the first to express my opinion
"You have already seen the situation on the day of the interview, and it was not easy to find a suitable nanny within a short period of time. So Aaron, I want you to help me think of a solution to help Jenny get through this difficult time."
Aaron leaned back on the couch and lit a cigarette. He bluntly told me, "This is easy."
The problem she is currently facing is that her father's gambling debts cannot be paid off. So the simplest solution 1s to give her money, let her handle the family affairs, and then come back to work with peace of mind. Mrs. Morris, have you ever heard a saying?
