Chapter 250 - Quit Working (1/2)

Caspar agreed that under normal circumstances, this would indeed be a very funny situation because Finland was repeatedly exposed to gossip as his mistress... people thought that she was a gold-digger who tried to seduce a rich man, even though what happened was the opposite.

Caspar was the one who was hopelessly in love with her and would do anything to pursue her while Finland always tried to avoid him.

He wanted to laugh but he didn't have the heart to do so in front of his wife. Now he was aware of all the commotion and Finland's irrational behavior today was the result of her pregnancy hormones going out of control. Everything then exploded on the wrong day.

”All right, I'll scold them and cut their annual bonuses as punishment for making my beloved wife sad. Who called you fat? I will fire her.”

Finland had never seen Caspar sack people before, which meant that he took this incident today very seriously...

Finland did not want to see Ruth fired. Ruth only told her an honest statement which, under normal circumstances, was not a big deal. Finland was upset because she was feeling super sensitive. She immediately shook her head.

”Don't overdo it... This is just my shitty pregnancy hormone, I shouldn't have felt offended,” she said quickly. ”But I'm not sure I'll be able to continue working here after today's incident. Plus, I don't know how long this stupid hormone will bother me...”

”So, what do you want?” Caspar's eyes suddenly widened when he realized the only possibility, ”Are you going to quit working? Starting from today?”

Finland nodded. ”I won't be able to face my coworkers again... It will definitely be awkward from now on.”

Caspar laughed cheerfully. Ha ha ha. He could not even begin describing how lucky he was today. Finland finally became jealous over him, and she also decided to quit working early.

He would celebrate this day by drinking with Lauriel tonight. He would make an exception today because he was very happy.

”All right. Then, let's go home. Do you want to say goodbye to your coworkers?”

Finland nodded. Caspar helped her get up from her chair and led her into the Market Research Department area, heading straight for her desk.

”How do you know which desk is mine?” Finland asked in surprise, she turned her head and gave Caspar a suspicious look, ”Are you stalking me?”

Hm... okay, maybe this pregnancy hormone isn't always adorable, Caspar thought. He had to restrain himself from replying to his wife's curt attitude and continued to answer gently, ”I know it's your desk because you have your bag on it.”
