The Almighty Lord Caspian by Cath Nitfisch

“Let’s forget about it,” Cora declined while shalding her head. “I know you want to help

me, and I’m grateful for the kindness you’ve shown me. I’ll try to think of something I can

do once I leave the hospital.”

She felt genuinely thankful for everything

low had done. While she did not say anything

now, she knew full well it would be hard for her to find another job.

After all, she was an uneducated woman and not that young anymore. No one would hire

her. For the first time ever, Willow realized just how tough life was for those who belonged

to the Bowwer economic classes.

At the same time, a thought began to take root inside of her Once Southlake Corporation

expanded further, she wanted to set up a charity foundation to help those who faced

financial difficulties.

“It doesn’t matter if you lose your job. In fact, I think it’s a good thing.” Caspian chimed in

with a smile

“Huh?”

Cora looked at Caspian in confusion.

“What do you mean by that, hubby? How is it a good thing?” Willow asked in confusion as

well

Cora was saddened enough by the fact that she had been fired, and it sounded as if

Caspian was rubbing salt into her wound.

“What do you think I said? I guess I wasn’t being clear enough. Well, being a street cleaner

is tough, and it pays very little. Why don’t you get a job with a higher salary?” Caspian

suggested

with a chuckle.

“Have you thought of something, hubby?” Willow asked anxiously.

“You’re being so silly. Have you forgotten that we still need a housekeeper for our place?

Why don’t we let Madam Upton work for us?

“Another option would be hiring her to work as a janitor at Southlake Corporation. You can

decide how much she gets paid,” Caspian said while patting Willow on the head.

Currently, Caspian and Willow did not have a housekeeper for Riverside Villa. Since Cora

seemed like a trustworthy person, Caspian figured there was no harm in giving her the

job.

“You’re right, hubby!” Willow exclaimed in realization. Why didn’t she think of that?

“Why don’t you work for us, Madam Upton? All you have to do is keep the house tidy. You

can also be a janitor at Southlake Corporation, but the work will be harder. Why don’t you

decide

hich one suits you better?” Willow asked.

She gave Cora the choice in the matter to protect Cora’s self–esteem. She did not want

Cora to think the job was a handout

Cora was thrilled by the offer, but she hesitated.

“Maybe I shouldn’t work for you,” she said falteringly. “Put not educated, and I’m not a

at Southlake Corporation.”

She knew full well that Willow would not take advantage of her. If she worked for them,

they would pay her a far higher salary than what she earned as a street cleaner.

But she was worried about doing a bad job.

“It’ll be fine. My husband and I are the only ones staying at our place. No one will

complain. about your work!” Willow hastily assured.

“Well, I …”

Cora was still hesitant.

“I know what you’re concerned about, Madam Upton, but you need to think about what’s

best for Flora, too. Now that you’ve lost your job, you won’t even be able to put food on

the table,” Caspian said.

Cora glanced at Flora and felt remorseful.

Caspian was right. She needed to find a job as soon as possible to continue providing for

her and Flora’s needs.

She couldn’t let Flora go hungry.

Having made up her mind, Cora said, “Okay. I’ll do it.”

“That’s great!” Willow exclaimed happily.

“That’s settled then. I’ll handle the paperwork to get you two discharged from the

hospital.. Afterward, you can come with us to our place, Riverside Villa,” Caspian said

before leaving the

room.

Cora’s heart was filled with gratitude.

She knew that Caspian and Willow offered to hire her as their housekeeper because they

were trying to help her.

Moved beyond words, she could not believe she was fortunate enough to run into

wonderful people like them.

Cora made up her mind to do a great job as their housekeeper to repay them.

Ever since Kate found out that Carl earned 800 million dollars, she began to strut around

like a peacock.

She went out around flaunting their newfound wealth, spending all her time idly with her

friends.

aughter, so they treated her with respect.

Slowly, Kate became the center of attention among everyone at the park. Each time she

went to the park for yoga, all eyes would be on her, and she relished that feeling.

Carl repeatedly tried to advise Kate against maintaining such a high profile. After all, he

did not earn that money through his own hard work.

Alas, Kate ignored him completely, and he could not do anything about it. In the end, he

stopped trying to convince her to change altogether.

Nevertheless, thanks to the money he brought back, his standing in the Stewart family

changed. Everyone started speaking to him with more respect.

At the moment, Kate was sitting on the couch in the living room in Stewart Residence.

There was a pile of jewelry in front of her, all courtesy of Saul!

“Oh, Saul. We’re siblings! You don’t have to bring anything when you visit me. Why did

bring all these valuables with you?” Kate happily said as she eyed the fine jewelry.
