Vivian was fuming when she heard Erma's voice. "Did your brain get fried? Why didn't you take good care of Mr. Slate's daughter?!"Erma was actually feeling wounded as well.She was doing well until she was suddenly told to babysit! And even if she discounted that fact, the nanny who arrived after she did gave her a thorough dressing down!The memories certainly did not sit well with Erma, and knowing immediately that Vivian was calling her to snap at her, she said sarcastically, "That's not quite right, Ms. Crowe. What was that you told me? That you'd pay me if I could get myself hired by Mr. Slate… but I still haven't received that money you promised."Vivian's face fell. "What are you talking about? Are you demanding pay when you can't even do your job?! Do you think our money grows on trees?!"Erma did not flinch despite Vivian's outburst—even if she was a maid, she was a seasoned individual who knew how to fuss over the little things.Puffing up her chest, she snapped back,

Vivian gave the man a look, and he nodded and pressed Erma harder against the wall!"Stop…" Erma stammered."Talk!" Vivian snapped as she strode forward. "Who's the woman in Mr. Slate's house? What did she do to get there?!"Who else did Zachary trust to recommend a maid more than her?"I-I don't know…" Erma gulped in mouthfuls of air after being released, no longer conceited as she backed away as far as she could! "I-I only know that she's young and a cousin of Mr. Slate's friend."A friend's cousin? If it was true, that means the woman was no pushover!Vivian frowned. "Are you sure?""Yes, yes!" Erma nodded repeatedly. "Don't worry, I know for sure—a friend of Mr. Slate recommended her! She didn't reach out to him herself! She's a returnee, and she has proper child care certification. Why else would Mr. Slate hire her?"Erma was not a fool, and she gingerly observed Vivian's reaction as she spoke, thinking to herself that young 'uns these days were really vile!"Do you know

Lulu stared warily at the woman. "You're the maid from before, aren't you?"She did not let down her guard even though she recognized Erma—why would Erma return after she was gone?Moreover, considering how impatiently Erma treated her baby, Lulu's expression became stern as well. "Didn't Mr. Slate tell you not to come anymore? What are you doing here?""Hello, miss," Erma said fawningly. "May I ask for your name? And you don't look that old… Others might think you're the mother with your pretty face—""Shut up!" Lulu suddenly snapped, cutting Erma short.She was surprised by her own reaction, despite knowing that Erma's flattery was exaggerated. Nonetheless, she calmed down, realizing she had lost her composure there."This is my employer's baby. Why would she be related to me?" Lulu demanded, rearing her head. "I was an hired employee like you, and if you have a problem, take it up with Mr. Slate—not me!"She more or less understood from Erma's fawning that Erma wanted her t

Erma looked sharp, but she could not even persuade that babysitter?"If words don't work, pay her!" Vivian snapped.Zachary had hired that woman as a babysitter anyway, and she was probably not that rich!"Pay… her?" Erma stammered. "But where would I have the money?""What…" Vivian choked and had to take a deep breath to calm down. "Go talk to her again tonight, and name a price within thirty grand. Once you come to an agreement, I'll wire her the money!"Thirty grand! Erma was delighted to hear the number and nodded repeatedly. "Okay, okay—don't worry, I'll find her again!"She was delighted even as she hung up. Others notwithstanding, if Vivian did pay her that much, she might be able to siphon off some of it.Hence, ignoring the curious looks others were giving her, she hurried towards the gates—if she recalled correctly, there was a nearby store for baby products. That babysitter must have gone there!-At that shop, a store assistant promptly approached Lulu when she

"Bleurgh…" Luna twitched and reached out to grasp Lulu's hair with her tiny hand!"It's alright." Lulu could not help smiling when she saw that and turned back to Zachary. "It's alright, Mr. Slate—we're right outside the apartment compound. I'd like to take Luna out for a stroll, and I'll just walk inside."While neither Zachary nor Lulu were looking at Erma, Erma started to reach for Lulu.Lulu took a step forward just then and stayed out of her grasp by chance!Zachary reacted right then, grabbing Erma's wrist and shoving her aside, almost knocking her off her feet.He glared icily at her, leaving her petrified!"Your severance fee has been paid," he growled. "So I don't want to see you near this place ever again. Do you understand?"His intimidating glare left Erma petrified and hanging her head in fear.And with that warning, Zachary strode into the apartment himself.-Meanwhile, Lulu had already brought Luna back to the apartment, feeling curious even as she opened the
