On the island, Li An’an slept all the way until the afternoon. After she woke up, she felt much better. She stretched and stood by the window to look outside. It had been pouring nonstop all day. The trees were drenched by the heavy rain to the point that they looked lifeless. Needless to say, the sea was foggy. It made one feel gloomy.

She missed the children and wanted to call them. However, she suddenly remembered that Liu Luhua had stolen her bag and along with that, she lost her phone. After thinking about it, she decided to go out and borrow a phone.

Outside the room, she saw the meticulously dressed-up Butler Chu. She sighed inwardly. Butler Chu seemed displeased with her now, and it must have been because she fell into the sea. She had never seen his tense muscles loosen up. It was as if she owed him 18 million yuan.

“Butler Chu, may I borrow your phone?” She walked over and greeted him with a smile.

Butler Chu stopped in his tracks and glanced sideways at her. “The signal tower on the island has been destroyed. There’s no signal on the entire island! It’s useless to give you a phone.”

“It’s that serious!” Li An’an didn’t expect this to happen.

Having said that, the butler walked away.

Li An’an held her forehead. He was like a robot all the time, wasn’t it exhausting?

Butler Chu walked to the top of the stairs and turned back. “By the way, Li An’an, when you came to the villa to work, there was an agreement that you’d have to pay a compensation of five million yuan in the instance of a breach of contract. I hope you remember this!”

Li An’an’s good mood immediately vanished. “This is simply daylight robbery! ”

Butler Chu’s tone was filled with disdain. “There’s no need for the Chu family to rob you of your money!”

Li An’an felt a tightening in her chest. For sure, it was a different world, and they operated on drastically different levels of understanding.

“Butler Chu, may I ask how much your annual salary is?

Butler Chu’s answered very solemnly, “I work because I love this family, not for money! If you insist on knowing my annual salary, it’s the same as your compensation amount, excluding bonuses and gifts, a property, a car and jewelry!”historical

Li An’an’s legs almost gave way. Five million yuan not including bonuses, gifts, real estate, a car, and jewelry. No wonder Butler Chu remarked that the Chu family couldn’t be bothered with her money.

But money was her life.

After saving this, the butler gave Li An’an a meaningful look, straightened his tie, and went downstairs.

Li An’an went to the balcony to get some fresh air. She found the information on Butler Chu’s high salary too depressing.

After spending a long time trying to calm down, Li An’an went downstairs. In the living room, she saw Butler Chu, two servants, and a few bodyguards. Chu Yichen was nowhere to be seen. She went upstairs again and ran into Li Cheng, who was coming out of the study with a folder.

Li Cheng was all smiles when he saw her. The two of them walked past each other and Li Cheng turned back. “Li An’an, although the CEO wants you to compensate him, I assume you’re still making dinner?” He smiled at her warmly.

Li An’an couldn’t bring herself to like him, especially when he had not so long ago walked into her room with a cold expression to serve the lawyer’s letter. At the thought of it, She gritted her teeth. “Sure, with half a catty of salt in it!”

Seeing that she was in a bad mood, Li Cheng rubbed his nose and quickly walked away.

Li An’an gently pushed open the door of the study room. Chu Yichen was sitting in front of the mahogany desk, fully focused on his computer screen. She walked in.

“Didn’t they say that all communication signals are down? Are you still working?” She walked over to the mahogany table and turned to look out of the window, casting a sidelong glance at him.

This was to save the trouble of having him accuse her of peeking at the company’s secrets. She could end up having to compensate for even more money. She’d probably have to jump off a building at that point.

Chu Yichen snapped his laptop shut and turned his chair to face her. “It’s just a proposal. It’s saved on the computer.”

“Okay.” Li An’an retracted her gaze from the distant scenery and met Chu Yichen’s eyes. He was dressed casually since he had not been going to the office, but his impeccable features were compelling as ever..
