Rosette Young POV'
One week past after my injuries...
I walked into the restaurant, the aroma of freshly brewed coffee and baked goods filled my senses.
I made my way to the changing room, the soft glow of the lights illuminating my path. The sound of sizzling meat and the hum of conversation from the kitchen created a lively atmosphere.
As I changed into my waitress outfit, the tight fabric clung to my body, making me feel uncomfortable.
The mini dress revealed more cleavage than I was comfortable with, but I didn't have a choice.
I needed the job, and I needed the money. When I entered the kitchen, Nora Wang's high-pitched voice cut through the noise.
"Welcome Rosette, finally time you came. "
"You know I can't keep covering up for you, you know right."
My eyes met Nora's, and I retorted coldly,
"Don't worry, I would pay you for your work. We agreed on that, didn't we Nora?"
The kitchen was warm, with the scent of cooking oil and spices wafting through the air
"Yes we did but I am getting to tired of extra job. My commission of 500 should become 1000 or I quit."
Nora vouched, a mischievous smirk spread across her face.
I stared at her as if she had grown two head. I knew she was greedy, but no to this extent.
"Quit then, it is not like you do anything good around here."
I retorted, rolling my eyes at her which seemingly infruiated her because she left the kitchen stomping on her foots. I knew it wasn't over on her end.
But I didn't have the energy to deal with her.
I had work to do.
My stomach growled, reminding me that I hadn't eaten lunch yet. I glanced at the clock on the wall, the ticking sound echoing through the room.
As I worked, my senses were on high alert. I carried the tray carefully upstairs, the weight of the dishes and glasses balanced precariously.
The sound of clinking glasses and the murmur of conversation from the dining area created a soothing background noise.
When I entered the VVIP room, my eyes widened in shock. My bullies from Mauve High were sitting at the table, their faces twisted in cruel smiles.
Taylor Yves's eyes locked onto mine, and I felt a shiver run down my spine. His gaze was like a cold breeze on a winter night, making my skin crawl.
The room was opulent, with plush carpets and lavish decorations. The scent of expensive perfume and fresh flowers filled the air, creating a heady aroma.
My senses were overwhelmed, and I felt like I was walking into a nightmare. As Taylor's eyes roamed over my body, I felt a wave of humiliation wash over me.
I tried to stand tall, but my legs trembled beneath me. The sound of Priscilla's taunting voice was like a knife cutting through my soul.
"Well, well, well, if isn't Miss. Nerd," Priscilla sneered. "How nice to see you at this five-star restaurant."
My face burned with shame, and I felt like I was going to collapse when I heard her next shameless words
"Did you crawl your way into the pants of the owner to secure a job in this well off establishment."
"What else can she do but go around been a whore?"
"Exactly. Haha the CEO must have been blind."
"Hehe, what is good about her? Look at how pale her skin is. It make me wanna puke."
Josef snickered,his eyes filled with disdain and malice towards me.
