A Ruling Passion: Mr Tremont's Priceless Little Bride novel Chapter 281

Tiffany pondered over Jackson’s offer. If Lillian knew Jackson made such an offer, she would never allow her to resign. This was truly an appealing incentive. However, once she recalled that it would be awkward since they would still meet in the office if she stayed and the rumors that had once spread online made her feel like hiding in a hole, she felt this was not a matter that could be resolved with money.

“Thank you, but I decline.” Tiffany decided despite her aching heart. She could almost hear her heart weeping for her. After all, she was honestly in need of money.

Jackson fell silent. He knew he was acting out of character. He was retaining a newbie who wanted to resign with a double increment in pay. It was unprecedented. He was also shocked that his offer had been declined. He did not want to force the matter, but he could not help the feeling of frustration that clawed at him. After a while, he finally said, “As you wish. Claim your salary from the general accounting department.”

Heaving a sigh of relief, Tiffany took the letter that he had signed and went to said department without any hesitation. When she completed the claim, she met Lillian before she could even step out of the doors.

When Lillian saw the payment in Tiffany’s hand, she knew her daughter had completed the resignation procedure. “Tiffany Lane! I’ve asked around. Eric opened a small company after some conflict with his family. How can you compare a small company to the West’s headquarters? Are you stupid? I don’t care. Go to Jackson now and tell him you’re not leaving!”

Tiffany clenched her teeth before saying resolutely, “I’ve resigned. You came too late. There’s no turning back.”

Lillian gritted her teeth. “Then I’ll go to Jackson personally and tell him that you’re insensible. You’ve had it easy in the past and know nothing about being in society. He’ll agree to have you back to work!”

Tiffany felt like exploding from the anger. “Stop being so materialistic! I’m not a kid anymore, I can make my own decisions. Stop making a fuss here. I can’t bear to embarrass myself. Don’t blame me for flipping out if you continue being irrational!”

Unlike her usual unreasonable demands and pestering, Lillian’s eyes turned red. “Do you think I want to control you? This is for your own good! It’s not like I want you to have anything to do with Jackson, but Eric can’t even take care of himself. He left the Nathaniels for his own startup, it won’t be easy. Why are you stepping into the mess? You lack experience, it’s best to stay in a big company like this. No fool would leave a big company for a small one. You don’t even know if you’ll survive!”
