Chapter 914
“That’s right.” Meredith nodded and took a sip of the red wine from her glass. “I didn’t talk about messing around
at the beginning, I even lost the opportunity to clean the toilets of the bar in the end.”
“It’s good to know.” Linda also took a sip from the glass.
“Why don’t you change jobs?” Meredith glanced at her. “Anyway, this is no longer a good place for you, and you
can’t make a lot of money. Why don’t you find a better job and work hard.”
“Change jobs?” Linda smiled bitterly. “Do you think you are the only one with sick family members who need to be
treated? I am in this position too.”
Meredith paused for a while, then nodded in agreement. “Well, if you stay here, you won’t make as much money as
before.”
This snobby and arrogant woman not only wears fake shoes, but also wears inferior perfume and powder makeup.

Linda glanced at her. “Are you finding happiness in the pain of others?”
“If you don’t want to say it, fine.” Meredith took a sip of red wine.
Unexpectedly, Linda said, “My father died when I was very young, and my mother’s health was always bad, so she
couldn’t work and earn money. From childhood to adulthood, it was a trouble for me and my brothers and sisters to
eat, not to mention tuition fees. As the eldest sister, I can only drop out of school early and take on the heavy
responsibility of supporting the family.”
Linda took a sip of the red wine and then continued, “I finally put my younger siblings in college over the years, and
my mother was diagnosed with uremia again. Now…”
She shook her head. “I’m full of debts, and the pirated shoes under my feet are old shoes that have been worn for
more than a year, let alone think about genuine shoes.”
“As long as the conditions allow for it, who doesn’t want to find a serious job and work hard? I want to do it too.”
Linda suddenly raised her eyes and looked at her. “Miss Meredith, do you think anyone can be as lucky as you? A
good man loves you and you can even marry a rich man like Mister Charlie.”
“I really don’t understand. Why are you doing this? A lucky woman like you, who bumps into people, then spending
money to chat with a woman you hate.”
Meredith looked at her sad little face, and finally understood the phrase ‘every person has their problems’.
Was she luckier than Linda? Well, at least her Nia was back, and now she did not have to live the life of a dog.
However, what about her freedom, her happiness?
“It can only be said that wealth doesn’t give you happiness,” she said.
“Happiness?” Linda sneered, “When you can’t even get enough food and clothing, how can you talk about
happiness? It’s just you rich people who have enough to eat, so you hypocritically think about happiness or not.”
“Seriously, if a rich man wanted me now, I would do anything. Even if that man doesn’t love me or pamper me, I
don’t care.”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmLinda bumped the wine glass on Meredith’s glass and said, “I think that’s what you thought at the beginning too,
Miss Meredith.”
“Yeah.” Meredith admitted, “In the beginning, I really didn’t dare to think about anything other than making money
to treat my child’s illness, and I didn’t dare to look forward to it anymore.”
Perhaps as Linda said, only when the basic needs of food and clothing are solved could a person start to think more
hypocritically.
“Thank you, I feel better now.” Meredith took a sip of the red wine in her hand and looked at her. “How much do
you need? I can lend it to you.”
Linda was slightly surprised. “Miss Meredith, did I hear it right? Are you here for charity today?”
She quickly recalled and said, “Even if you are doing charity, you shouldn’t choose me as the person to help. After
all, I made a lot of stumbling blocks for you back then.” “Why don’t you…count yourself lucky.”
