My billionaire husband spoils me too much
Chapter 816

"Mr. Jadwin, it's not my fault. It was Sonia who used the poisonous wild mushrooms as today'singredient. You've found it out, haven't you? Sonia should take the main responsibility! All I did wasserve dishes. How could you fire me?"

"As the shop manager of this branch, you have joint responsibility!” Mr. Jadwin, the generalmanager, replied toughly.

May was aggrieved. "Are you blaming me for not discovering the problem in time? But the shopmanager of the main store was there too, and he didn't discover it either. Besides, among the tentables I served that day, only one guest claimed he had food poisoning after eating thosemushrooms. Please give me the contact information of that guest, I can personally apologize to himand ask for his forgiveness.”

"Mr. Jadwin, I really need this job! I have been working here for years. Please give me a chance. I amwilling to pay all the medical expenses of that guest.”

May bowed low to Mr. Jadwin, begging for a chance.

“I'm sorry, May."

Mr. Jadwin appreciated May's performance at work, but he had to fire her as the guest hadrequested.

"I'm not interested in the grudge between you and Sonia. Both of you are fired. Later, we will sueSonia for using poisonous mushrooms in the restaurant.”

Mr. Jadwin patted May's shoulder, sighing.

"I'm willing to give you a chance, but that guest won't allow it. Even I can't get his personal numberand apologize, let alone you. Roxanne, you're smart and hard-working. I'm sure you'll replace anotherjob soon.”

Roxanne was May's name in this country. Knowing that she was bound to be fired, May sat on thechair with her head lowered down, tears of grievance filling her eyes

After working in this restaurant for four years, she finally settled down with a stable salary andfamiliar colleagues and friends. This calm and happy life ended today. Now she had to lookeverywhere for jobs like before. May couldn't help but feel exhausted at this thought.

"Roxanne, it's not your fault."

"You poor girl!"

After Mr. Jadwin left, all May's colleagues came over to comfort her.

"Sonia really went too far this time! She must be mad after failing to seduce your boyfriend anddoing such a horrible thing as a result. Everyone knows she's jealous of you!"

May looked up with a forced smile, pretending to be calm. "I'm fine. Thanks."

She had long been exhausted from struggling alone for a living in this foreign country. At thissecond, she really wished to have a home.

It had always been her dream to get married and live an ordinary yet happy life as a housewife withher lovely children. In fact, it had never occurred to her that she would be working alone abroad.Even Christina was married and became a mother.

May perked up when she thought about her life after getting married. Even if her career was ruined,she still had a boyfriend who loved her.

May called her busy boyfriend Henry that day, but the phone was still picked up by his agent,Shirley Johanning.

"Miss Fain, I told you before that Henry is a busy celebrity. Flying around every day to shootadvertisements is hard work. As his girlfriend, you should support him with care and love, notdisturb him by calling so frequently.”

Shirley scolded May in a voice dripping with sarcasm.

May, who was in a bad mood today, had no patience to be tactful with Shirley, yelling with anger,"Give the phone to Henry now! I have something urgent to ask him!"

Irritated, Shirley took a few deep breaths to suppress the urge to scold this cheap woman whowasn't good enough for Henry since Shirley knew how much Henry cared about his girlfriend."Okay, I'll give the phone to him,” Shirley replied in a perfunctory tone.

"Honey, you called just when I'm missing you!" Henry joked in a good mood. "We do have aconnection, don't we?"

It was Henry's hobby to make such jokes. May, who used to replace them interesting, didn't laugh at all.She had something serious to say.

"Henry, are you willing to marry me?"

May suddenly asked.

They started dating seven years ago, and May had been imagining her happy married life for fiveyears. To her disappointment, Henry never proposed. Therefore, May decided to be thick-skinnedand ask him to marry her today.

Henry was obviously shocked.

"Henry, answer me, are you willing to marry me or not?" May asked again nervously.

Henry stammered, "Honey, you know I love you.”

"You don't want to marry me, do you?"

May clutched her phone tightly. In fact, she had long realized that Henry had no interest inmarriage. That was why she kept waiting for him to propose, not daring to take the initiative tobring up this topic.

"No, no! Honey, listen to me."

Henry was a little upset, not expecting May, who he had been dating for years, to ask him to marryher all of a sudden

"Honey, we're still young, and my career is currently on the rise. We will live a better life together if Imake more money now. You don't want to be as humble as before, right?"

"Can you wait for me for a few more years?" Henry coaxed gently.

May hung up the phone directly. Tears streamed down her face as she muttered, "I don't want towait any longer.”

She suddenly realized how foolish she had been when she decided to study abroad for a better life.Not even a single rock in this beautiful and prosperous foreign city could be hers. She could neverreplace her home here, not even by the side of the man who she had been dating for seven years.Henry sensed something wrong and called her back immediately, but May had turned off herphone.

He was worried but couldn't remember the phone number of any of May's colleagues no matterhow hard he tried. Henry gritted his teeth in frustration. He really should have cared about her lifemore!

Shirley walked over. "Did you two have a quarrel?"

Henry nodded irritably.

"She suddenly asked me to marry her.”

Surprised, Shirley asked nervously, "Did you say yes?"

Henry shook his head. "No."

It was still too early for him to think about marriage. In fact, he never found a marriage certificatenecessary at all. An ideal couple didn't need marriage to prove their love for each other.

Heaving a sigh of relief, Shirley hugged Henry and comforted him, "Henry, you're a good boyfriend.We send her expensive gifts every holiday even when you're busy, right? She should beconsiderate.”

"I think May needs some time to calm down. Perhaps it's her colleagues that egged her to call you.Leave her alone for a few days, and everything will be fine. We should get back to work now. All thestaff of the show is waiting for you."

Henry glanced at the crew behind him. "Okay."

Henry contacted the restaurant May worked in three days later, thinking that she should be calmnow, and was surprised to be told that May had been fired.

"She's been working here for so years. You have to compensate her for this, or you're just bullyingthis foreign girl!" Henry was furious.

He realized the reason why May had asked him to marry her this abruptly. It must be the day whenshe lost her job.

"Henry, we have no choice. Look, we can't even open now."

The restaurant was severely punished after that accident.

The restaurant manager explained with a sigh, "We appreciate everything she did for the restaurant,but it was the guest's request to fire her. Do you know who had food poisoning that day? The wifeof the CEO of IP&G Group!"

Henry was shocked. He knew about the IP&G Group. How could the wife of the CEO of such a bigcompany have dinner at this open-air restaurant?

"Our restaurant is now under investigation. It's said that we can't open for the next six months. Ourgeneral manager is still negotiating with the bureau. Fortunately, the CEO of IP&G Group isreturning to the headquarters today, leaving a director in charge of all the business here. It shouldbe easier to solve this problem now. Alas, I really hope we can get over this sooner.”

Henry then rushed to the apartment May rented, but the landlady told him May had moved out.Henry called May over and over again. All he heard was the automatic reply that told him thesubscriber he dialed was power off. Not knowing what to do, Henry stared blankly at the emptyrented apartment where he and May had been living for 7 years.

He got scared all of a sudden.

Was she breaking up with him?

How could she do that?

"May is kind and gentle. She couldn't be so cruel to me. No, she must be just angry..." Henry heldhis phone at a loss, thinking nervously.

The landlady glanced at him and dampened his hope.

"I heard May had returned to her homeland. She said there was nothing that could keep her stayinghere."

Henry's face turned pale at these words.
