When She Stops Playing Nice by Hale Saxon -
Chapter 195
Chapter 195
When Gina lived in the countryside, she planted medicinal herbs, not only because it was complicated, but also because she was free.
She had a long list of tasks to complete and no longer had the time to tend to the herbs. Additionally, she had recently acquired the medicine land and the newly planted medicinal herbs demanded a lot of energy. She worried that she wouldn’t have enough time to manage everything.
Gina could have spent some money to hire someone to take care of them, but she was concerned that she’d encounter someone insincere and inattentive. Her trust in outsiders had always been very low, so she couldn’t bring herself to entrust the medicinal herbs she had just planted to a
stranger.
While she didn’t have many interactions with Cathy, she could sense that Cathy was a genuine and sincere person.
“So, do you want to let me take care of them?” Cathy felt Battered.
“Yes, in the future, you will need to come to the designated location every morning at 5 to water and fertilize the herbs. That’s a basic task. Additionally, there is the stage of insulation. You also need to keep a record of the growth of the seedlings.
“You can rest at 10 am. and at 3 p.m. you need to… Gina elaborated on all the details.
Cathy listened attentively, noting down the keywords and key points in her head.
“You can leave at five in the evening. I can help you maintain your position at the hospital Working at the medicinal herb plantation is not a permanent job. After about three months, you can return to your job at the hospital, and your salary will continue to be paid as usual. In addition to your hospital
电 salary, I will pay you a monthly salary of 10 thousand dollars for working at the medicinal herb plantation. We provide meals during the day. What do you
think?”
Cathy did some calculations. Despite having to wake up very early in the morning, she realized she only needed to work for less than eight hours a day. Additionally, her salary at the hospital was still being paid as usual. She couldn’t believe she had found such a great jobl
She had no reason to disagree.
Cathy was overjoyed. “I can’t believe it! Thank you so much, Miss Miller, for giving me this opportunity. This is amazing, absolutely amazing!”
In that case, she could earn 12 thousand dollars a month. This was a salary that she never even dreamed of in the past!
“Can you start from tomorrow?” Gina asked.
“Sure! No problem!” Cathy answered with a smile.
“Okay, it’s a deal then. You can go now.” Gina said calmly.
Cathy was filled with excitement and eagerly approached Gita to give her a hug. “Miss Miller, thank you so much! I am so lucky to meet you.”
-Gina smiled faintly and remained silent.
However, she seemed to have had a thought and asked, “Are you happy because you can earn a high salary, or because you can help Andy pay for the repairs on the Rolls Royce?”
Cathy was taken aback. She was not expecting Gina to bring this up. Suddenly, she felt a twinge of guilt. “…”
“I warned you that he’d bring you down.” This was the first time Gina had interfered in someone else’s affairs.
In a logical sense, she wouldn’t have such strong feelings of wanting to help Cathy, whom she had only recently met, out of her difficult situation. However, when Gina pared into Cathy’s clear eyes, she experienced an unexpected pang of heartache.
Chapter 195
Miss Miller, I’m sorry. You are right. That’s indeed the reason why I am so thrilled. And I understand what you told me, I will think about it. I know what to do. Don’t worry.”
Gina took a deep breath. “Oh, never mind. Forget what I said.”
After saying that, Gina turned around and left.
Cathy started to feel nervous. She stopped Gina and said, “Miss Miller, I appreciate your kindness, please don’t be upset.”
Gina halted in her steps and spoke calmly, “I’m not upset. This is your personal issue, and it’s understandable that you don’t want me to get involved. I have no reason to be angry about it.”
Cathy let out a sigh of relief. Just now, she had been worried that she would lose the new job. Now she was reassured. Miss Miller was a big shot. Why would she be concerned with her?
She was overthinking, “Miss Miller, are you going back to work?”
Gina nodded.
Cathy quickly stepped aside for her, saying “I apologize for taking up your time.”
Gina left without saying anything else.
Olivia woke up in hunger.
She glanced at the clock and realized that she had slept for a full day and night. Furthermore, she had not eaten anything. Subconsciously, she assumed that Mason would come to bring her food as usual But to her surprise, he did not come that day.
Otherwise, it would have been impossible for her, who was sleeping on the sofa, not to hear the knock on the door.
Olivia found the chatbox with Mason. She recalled their recent argument near the police station just two days ago. Furthermore, Mason had always been the one to please her. If she were to approach him now because she didn’t have money to buy food, she would feel embarrassed.
She had

money after returning Cathy’s money, but she had spent it all in the bar.
However, the more Olivia thought about it, the angrier she grew. “You’re a jerk, and I would choose anyone but you!”
She took a sip of water, but it did little to ease her hunger. Suddenly, a delightful aroma wafted from the neighboring room. Unable to resist any longer, Olivia knocked on the door.
Cathy opened the door, “Olivia, are you okay?”
“Do you
have any food?”
“Yes, come in…” Before Cathy could finish her sentence, Olivia entered the room.
Olivia glanced at the food on the table. Before Cathy could even invite her to try them, she grabbed the fork and started eating without reservation. She devoured the food quickly. She was aware that her table manners at the moment must be terrible, but she didn’t mind at all
Cathy was a little surprised. “Hey, slow down. You’ll choke yourself”
Olivia paused and glanced up at Cathy, feeling like she was her mom

Cathy was clearly the same age as Olivia, but she was inuch gentler and more considerate than her peers. She seemed destined to be a good mother and
wile.
Olivia’s appetite had diminished and she glanced at the dishes on the table. There were two bowls of seafood that appeared to be quite expensive. She casually remarked, “The food is excellent. This prawn must cost hundreds of dollars per kilo, am I right?”
Olivia had it at the Miller family.
She didn’t anticipate Cathy to be so wealthy. Nonetheless, she couldn’t shake the feeling that something was amiss. If Cathy truly had money, why would she be renting a house here?
“I didn’t buy it. I brought if back from work.” Cathy sat down and said.
“Work? What do you do for a living?” Olivia was curious
“I am a nurse.”
Olivia smiled. “Nurse, do you think I’m an idiot? What kind of hospital provide nurses with such good meals?”
Even Prover Hospital, the best hospital in Norwood, Prover Hospital, wouldn’t be so generous.
Olivia unconsciously considered the idea, but upon realizing that Prover Hospital belonged to Gina, she felt a surge of anger. She wished she could destroy Prover Hospital and tear Gina into pieces.
“It’s not my job as a nurse but..
