Please Love Me, Mr. George novel Chapter 313

After all, a peaceful and joyful life was all about those simple little pleasures. I always imagined what life would be like for Dennis and me if we could have been fortunate enough to spend the rest of it together.

Probably I would be more family-oriented, guarding the kids every day, learning how to make delicious food, and mastering how to take care of the kids and Dennis's health better.

However, life wasn’t just all about those pleasant moments - There were ups and downs along the way. In the past four years, I had slowly learned to let go. I always thought to myself that he must have had been in a difficult dilemma himself and that it hadn’t been his intention to lie to me and hurt me. There must be other reasons.

When you had been madly in love with someone for too long, and one day you might realize the love you had had would slide into the hatred and resentment you might have been growing against them. And then you would gradually start to let go as if the love and hatred had fused well together and had evened each other out - So then you were in peace. Anyhow, we parted and went our separate ways. Our lives seemed to never cross one another again.

Nathan had always been efficient and effective with his work. However, ever since he transferred me back to the office, I hadn’t gotten used to the less of a workload yet.

Probably because there was less work, the staff were idling together in the office. Someone had committed suicide in the hotel by jumping off the building because of the issues they had with their love life.

The staff started gossiping.

“I heard that the girl’s parents are high-ranking officials in City P. Although it is not our hotel’s responsibility. However, the accident did happen here. It’s possible our reputation is in jeopardy.”

“Right! The business is finally picking up, but now this happened. I am afraid we will have to start looking for new jobs again.”

“Exactly! I heard that the head office is rich and powerful, and they don’t care about how much a small hotel like ours would make. The senior staff might not even think about wasting time in handling this matter. The easiest way to fix this would just be to shut the hotel down.”

“Ugh! We are going to be unemployed. It’s terrible. I finally got a job - The salary and welfare are decent. With this accident happening, I would just be out of work again soon.”

Several receptionists in the hotel got together and gossiped before shift-changing. I couldn’t help but eavesdrop more. It was true that in a small town like the HL Area, there weren’t many big companies. There were basically just factories and some small shops.

This resort hotel was comparatively big, and the salary was much higher than others. If it got shut down now, I would have to find a new job soon.

I was afraid that I wouldn’t find a new job with over three thousand a month so easily. I couldn’t help but sigh. I was so close to finally being able to make a little more salary each month. When this happened, I was out of luck!

Nathan walked in and saw the few receptionists sighing, he frowned, “You might as well think about how to do your current job well when you have time to worry about the unknown here.”

The receptionists got yelled at by him and scattered away.

Nathan walked up to me, saw me staring at the computer screen in a daze, and said, “What do you have in mind? We are getting off work soon. Shall we pick up Clarie and Joey together later?”

I nodded. But then I remembered I had to finish some spreadsheets for a while, I immediately shook my head, “Can you do me a favor and pick up Clarie Bear for me? I still have some work to do. Thanks!”

Seeing the unfinished spreadsheet on my computer screen, Nathan smiled and left without saying much.

As soon Nathan left, the few receptionists started gossiping again. But this time, they were talking about me.
