The Rewritten Love: A Second Beginning by Max Charming Chapter 582
Madelyn went to Hayson’s room. She saw a caregiver feeding Hayson medicine. Madelyn asked, “What medicine are you feeding him?”
The caregiver glanced at Madelyn, ” This is the medication for treating Mr. Jent’s stroke.”
Madelyn saw that Hayson had opened his eyes. He was awake, but he looked out of it. All of a sudden, he started to shake and then threw up the medicine.
Quickly, the caregiver put the medicine bottle down and began wiping him off. Madelyn, watching from the side, saw the annoyed look on the caregiver’s face. After a hasty cleanup, the caregiver tried to give him the medicine again. But Hayson threw up again, and this time it was even worse. Even from where Madelyn stood, she could smell the bad odor. She pulled back the blanket and saw that the bed was wet with urine.
The caregiver frowned as she said, “Ms.. Jent, you should leave for now. I need to change his clothes.”
Madelyn said firmly, “I’ll handle it. Please get the medicine ready and bring me a copy of the prescription.”
The caregiver, Amber Upton, hesitated, “Mr. Jardin assigned me this responsibility. I’m not sure I should step away.” Madelyn’s voice instantly turned cold, ‘ This is my home, not his. I’m letting you know now that you’re no longer needed.”
Amber stood her ground, “Ms. Jent, you can’t just fire me without a valid reason. Our contract states you’d owe me triple compensation if you do.”
Unfazed, Madelyn said, “Whatever the cost, I want you out. I’ll make sure you’re paid according to the contract. Now, please leave.”
Amber shot back, “Mr. Jardin hired me. He’s the only one who can let me go.”
Madelyn said, “Well, think about it carefully then. If I talk to him and he tells you to leave, you won’t see a dime. Huffily, Amber stormed out of the room. Madelyn had suspected Amber’s intentions since yesterday. In her eyes, anyone employed by Zach was not to be trusted.
Wanting to freshen the room, Madelyn opened the windows and doors, allowing the fresh air to waft in and dispel the unpleasant smells.
Amber went downstairs. Three people were having their breakfast at the table. She mumbled as she approached Zach, “Mr. Jardin, I’m sorry, but I can’t continue working here. Just now, Ms. Jent went upstairs and didn’t seem satisfied with my work. She got angry and fired me.’
Zach replied casually, “Alright then. We’ll pay out your salary as agreed. It’ll be in your account promptly.”
Amber did not expect to get such a response. ‘I was making five thousand dollars a month here. Being let go like this… How will I find such a good paying job again?’ she pondered.
She could not help but feel reluctant to leave. “Mr. Jardin, you see… I was doing my job well, but I got dismissed suddenly. I’ve worked for just a few days. Isn’t this a bit unreasonable?”
Jadie slowly said, “Madelyn doesn’t seem like the type of person who’d target someone without any reason. Zach, could there be a misunderstanding? I heard jobs are hard to find now because of the financial crisis. Should we ask Madelyn to let her stay?”
After Zach was done eating, he carefully wiped his mouth, “Clause fifteen of the contract clearly states that I have the right to hire and terminate you at any time. She’s the heiress of the Jent family. I don’t think I need to explain this to you. If she wants you gone, it’s her right.”
Amber tried to speak, “But…”
Zach stopped her, “No ‘buts’.”
Jadie tried again, “Zach…”
He looked at her sternly, “This is about the Jent family. Jadie, don’t butt in unless you’re asked.”
