Chapter 209
Eva was struggling, so she did not say reject Conrad’s offer out of politeness. She just
handed her luggage to him.
“Sorry for the trouble, Mr. Clark ”
Conrad wore a charming smile. “It’s not a problem at all.”
Half an hour later, they reached their destination. By then, Joe and Eva were covered in
sweat, and they looked quite pathetic. Meanwhile, Silvia’s breathing remained stable, and
she did not look like someone who had just walked up a mountain.
Once Conrad put Eva’s luggage down, he looked at Silvia and said, “Miss Pond, this will be
your accommodation for the next few days. I hope you don’t mind how simple and
makeshift it is ”
Silvia nodded. “Thank you, Mr. Clark. By the way, how will we be getting our meals?
“You’ll be eating at my house. Please rest for the day. I’ll bring lunch to you later. Then
tomorrow, I’ll bring you to the village’s textile factory.
‘Alright. Thank you, Mr. Clark.”
“No problem. If you run into any problems, please call me. Goodbye.”

After Conrad left, Silvia explored the house before her. It was an old house with earthen
walls. Considering what she had seen on her way there, she knew that this was the
village’s best
house.
Ever since Eva learned that they had to stay there for the week, disdain filled her eyes.
She had never seen such a shabby house before. How could anyone survive there?
“How are we supposed to stay here, Miss Pond?”
Silvia looked at her and spoke coolly, “I’ve checked it out. It has three rooms, so we can
each have a room.”
Eva frowned in displeasure. “That’s not what I meant. I can’t stay in a house like this!”
“What would you prefer, then?”
“I’d like to look for a hotel. I want a place with a bathroom at least!”
If she had known that she was going to live in such horrible conditions, she would have
pretended to be sick to skip this business trip.
“Miss White, you seem to be confused about something. We’re here on a business trip, not
a Vacation!”
Eva bit her l*p and said angrily, “In any case, I’m not staying here, not even for a day. If
you insist on it, I’m quitting.
“Do whatever you want.”
Then, Silvia dragged her luggage into the room.

Eva gnashed her teeth in anger, but she was not familiar with the area. Even if she wanted
to leave, she did not know who to approach for help.
Joe could sense her predicament and said, “Eva, we’re already here. Just bear with it for a
week. Even if you really want to quit, wait until we’re back in Ryoln City, alright?”
Eva reluctantly said, “Fine. I’ll quit the moment we get back to Ryoln City. I’m supposed to
be a secretary. I shouldn’t suffer like this!”
By the time she dragged her luggage into the living room, Silvia had already set up
her bed.
She remained indifferent when she saw Eva. She was neither angry nor happy that Eva
had agreed to stay.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmJoe could sense the awkward atmosphere between the two of them, and he said, “Miss
Pond, Eva knows that she was wrong. Please don’t take the incident earlier to heart.”
“I won’t. It’s just a job. If she wants to do it, she’ll do it. If she doesn’t, she won’t. It’s that
simple,” Silvia calmly said.
Eva was embarrassed, and she looked upset..
Joe was worried that she would start arguing with Silvia, so he said, “Eva, pick a room. I’ll
take the remaining one.”
“Okay.”
Once Eva picked her room, both of them went in to place their luggage.
After they settled down, they came out. Conrad had also delivered lunch by then.
“I’m terribly sorry, Miss Pond. We have nothing fancy to offer you. I hope you’ll find this to
your liking.”
Eva looked at the food on the table. Lunch consisted of roasted chicken, a tomato omelet,
stir- fried vegetables, and vegetable soup.
It was a “simple” lunch, alright.
Silvia shook her head and said, “This is considered a fancy lunch. You don’t have to bring
us so much food next time. Just bring us some stir–fried vegetables. You plant your own
vegetables, don’t you?”
