Chapter 21 - Dealing with the step-family [2]

"Yah! Shin Daerin, leave my house in this instant!" the middle-aged woman exclaimed, "Or else I will be calling the police to get you out of here. You have been way too much. We don't require someone as ungrateful as you at here."

A smug expression sat on three of their faces, and shrugging her shoulders, Jiwoo answered, "Fine, I will be leaving."

Her reply shocked everyone. There was no sign of distress or anxiety over her face while she walked towards her bedroom.

Before they could stop her, she mumbled to herself, so that it was loud enough for them to hear: "Oh! Man! I got rise at work today by 150,000 won and wanted to hand it over to Eunha and Eunhye. Too bad, they don't want it."

Their greed instantly showed upon their faces the moment they heard those words, and before Jiwoo could open the door to her room, someone placed her palm on top of Jiwoo's shoulder.

Feeling that, Jiwoo's lips curved to form a small smirk, and she turned back. The arrogance on her face was clearly visible to Eunha, who had her palm on Jiwoo's shoulder.

"I-If you pay us some amount of money, we are willing to look past on how you did not wash our clothes, cook the breakfast, cleaned the house, and took the key away, and allow you to stay here," Eunha spoke out.

"Money, hmm," Jiwoo stated, "How much do you need?"

Eunhye coughed and said, "Nothing much. Just around 300,000 won. There is this bag I have been dying to get, and if you give us that amount of money, we will allow you to stay here."

"I don't want to stay here," Jiwoo replied, "I found a place I want to stay at. That's why, I do not want to stay at somewhere as cheap as this. This place doesn't deserve someone like me, so remove your cheap hand off of me. You stink."

"Moon Jiwoo, you fool! What are you trying to do? Where do you think you will be staying if you leave this place? Just after about the 300,000 thing. Just say her that you will be paying her when you get your salary. After all, in few days, you will be leaving," Minnie vocalised in hopes of convincing Jiwoo.

Paying no heed to those words of Minnie, Jiwoo said, "Although I have bȧrėly any clothing items, I have to start packing now."

Hearing those words from Jiwoo made them three go into a state of panic. Those words were said by them due to how humiliated they have felt, and Jiwoo was akin to a money tree to them. They will be losing a maid and luxury if they let go of her.

They expected for her to beg and cry when she heard about being kicked out. However, seeing how Jiwoo was adamant on leaving, they were nervous now. They had to stop her from leaving or else they are done for.
