Chapter 15
"Oh my God, they're starting again!" Pierre patted his face. Acting as if he had no part in provoking them into arguing again.
"Pierre, what should we do?" Jacob asked. He shook his head slowly, not knowing how to stop the two of them.
"Just leave it alone! Let's see how far they can argue in a place like this."

"That damn Henry! How can he be so arrogant? If he really hates me? Why doesn't he just ignore me?" Ruby muttered in annoyance. She felt at a loss to deal with Henry's arrogance which seemed to get worse as she grew up.
She thinks that as people get older, they will be wiser and control their words more so as not to hurt other people's feelings. But it seems that doesn't apply to Henry.
It's true he's rich, very rich in fact. His wealth was even inherited starting from his great-grandfather's generation. You could say Henry is the fourth generation to inherit this wealth. His life was truly filled with wealth. His family owns shares in several diamond and oil mines in several countries. Not to mention the cruise ship company and property business run by his family. When they were little, Henry's father was ranked as the 10th richest person in the world. That means their wealth is no joke.
Ruby could only rub her chest, even though this was her first day working as a cafe waitress, she felt bad.
"Okay, I don't need to think about him and his tempting offer. I know he just wants to play with me." She thought. She still insisted on refusing Henry's offer even though she knew it might change her fate.
Yesterday...
"Don't be stupid! You think I'll just believe it?"
"Why? You think I'm lying?" Henry smiled slyly. Pierre and Jacob were a little in disbelief that Henry really wanted to employ Ruby at the company he ran. Even though he seems to want to help, it seems like it's nothing more than a revenge plan.
Ruby narrowed her eyes. Honestly, she was interested in Henry's offer, which asked her to become an employee at the Property Company where he was the CEO of the company. She knows exactly how big Henry's company is, it is the dream company of workers and interns when they actually enter the world of work. High salary, health insurance, insurance, year-end holidays, position allowances, hard work, overtime. Everything offered by such a big company is no joke. Naturally, the company holds five-star hotels which are usually used as accommodation for socialites and world celebrities and also luxury condominiums which are assets that rich people are proud of.
Ruby swallowed hard, she knew her life would probably be easier if she worked at that company. But the problem is, the head of the company is a childhood friend who wants revenge on her. How could he possibly enjoy her days working there?
"I don't know what your real motivation is for offering me to work at your company. Maybe you want revenge on me, right?"
"Wow, wow...you really found out, didn't you?"
"Of course, idiot! You? Do you really want to see me miserable?"
"It can't be helped? I want to see a bad person like you get retribution for your evil deeds. I want you to get punished!"
Today...
"Argh... Damn Henry! I can't stop thinking about that, can I? Do I really look like I need money, huh?" Ruby rubbed the back of her neck. For some reason, she felt like a cold wind was blowing on her neck.
"Good morning, Ruby?" whispered someone standing right behind her. She immediately looked back and saw the face of a middle-aged man with a perverted face smiling disgustingly at her.
"Ah...good morning, Mr. Manager?" She said awkwardly. She felt very uncomfortable, especially since this man was always paying attention to her breasts.
"You came so early, didn't you? Very diligent!"
"I don't want to be late on my first day of work." Ruby smiled awkwardly. She hoped that this man would immediately come into her room and let her do what he had to do. Change clothes and clean up.
"Good job! See you later?" She said as she walked away.
"S-see you later!" Finally she could breathe a little easier. She immediately went into the dressing room and changed into her maid uniform.
"I think this shirt is too tight for me! Isn't there anything else? The skirt is really short too!" She said while looking at herself in the mirror. She thought that if Henry saw her appearance like this then the teasing would definitely get worse.
"There's no way they're hanging out here again today, right?"
"Hi good morning?" It was as if the young woman was greeting him in a friendly manner.
"Good morning!" Ruby returned the greeting while observing the beautiful blonde woman who was wearing the same uniform as herself, which meant that this woman was also a waitress at this cafe.
"New employee, huh?"
"Yes, I just started working today. I'm Ruby, please cooperate!"
"I'm Bella, nice to meet you!
