After the divorce, I started to transfer
Chapter 1896 Abilities Evolved
Chen Feng and Sandra talked in the room for about ten minutes before coming out. The three women outside looked a little strange, but they didn't say or ask anything.
“Brinna, give Sandra an advance of $10,000 a month.”
Chen Feng gave the instructions directly to Brienna. Although he had bank checks, he was too lazy to write them. Besides, Chen Feng had already given Brienna $100,000. From now on, he would simply let Brienna handle all the necessary expenses, including paying the salaries of the four employees.
Although Brina had some doubts, she quickly nodded in agreement: "Okay."
Then he looked at Sandra and said, "Give me your bank account number, or your PayPal account number."
Sandra quickly stepped forward and gave Brienne her bank account number. Brienne promptly transferred $10,000 to Sandra via mobile banking.
Sandra was delighted to receive the money. She then mentioned that she might not be able to start work for another two days. She was currently employed as a returning agent, and quitting would take at least two days to settle her work. Additionally, she had some personal matters to attend to – her romantic entanglement with that USC engineering student.
Rachel said she would move here tomorrow and then start working.
Sandra quickly took her leave. Rachel, however, stayed behind, waiting for Mrs. Mercer to come for the interview.
After waiting for about ten more minutes, Mrs. Mercer finally arrived. She was a white woman in her fifties. In fact, she looked quite young, and didn't appear frail or old. She walked with a brisk pace, suggesting she was in good health.
Furthermore, she maintains a very good figure and is not overweight. This is quite rare in the United States, because here, the older one gets, the more overweight one tends to become. It's difficult to maintain the slim figure one had in youth, for both men and women.
So, Rachel was telling the truth when she said she exercises every day. Otherwise, it would be difficult to maintain such a great figure at her age.
After greeting each of them, Mrs. Mercer said with a happy expression, "This villa is wonderful. If I could work here, I would definitely take good care of it and maintain it well."
Chen Feng then said, "You're younger than I expected, and you look very energetic. Would you be willing to come and work as a live-in nanny?"
Chen Feng had a very good first impression of her. First of all, she was a kind and approachable elderly woman. Furthermore, Chen Feng found her pleasing to the eye. He felt she was a cheerful person, and so far, she didn't seem to have much guile or scheming, which is very rare at her age.
"Of course, why not? Although I really like the house I live in now. After all, I've lived there for over ten years, but that house obviously can't compare to this luxurious garden villa. There's no comparison at all. Besides, if I live here, I won't have to continue living alone at home. Having someone to live with and someone to talk to is very precious to me. So, if I can work here, I'd rather take a lower salary."
Chen Feng then asked, "I heard that you used to work as a live-in nanny for a wealthy family, is that true? Could you tell me more about what happened back then?"
"Of course. That was when I was in my early twenties, I think I was twenty-five. I actually studied hotel management. After graduating from university, I worked in a hotel at first, but I wasn't very happy with it, so I quit and became a live-in nanny."
At the time, the family had two children, one older, in her teens, and the other younger, only seven or eight years old. My main responsibilities were playing with the little girl and tutoring her. In addition, I did some housework. It was quite busy, but the pay was good. The family paid me six thousand US dollars a month, which was very high at the time. I stayed with that family for about five years.
Later, I got married, and the little girl grew up and went to boarding school. Although I could have stayed in that house and my salary wouldn't have decreased, I felt increasingly looked down upon, so I resigned. Then my husband and I had my daughter, and I haven't worked since.
Chen Feng then asked, "So you weren't in charge of cooking back then?"
Mrs. Mercer shook her head honestly: "No. They have a professional chef to cook for them; they don't need me, the nanny, to cook."
"If you were to work as a live-in nanny, could you cook and prepare meals?"
Mrs. Mercer smiled and said, "Of course, I really enjoy cooking. When I'm at home, I cook whenever I have free time, and I also learn cooking techniques. I'm particularly good at Mexican food. In addition, I also know some of your Asian dishes, such as Thai food, Chinese food, and island cuisine."
“Very good.” Chen Feng nodded in approval. “I have no other questions. If you’re willing to work here, you can work as a live-in nanny. I’ll pay you $8,000 a month. Your responsibilities will be cooking and cleaning. You’ll basically have to cook every day. As for cleaning, you can coordinate and negotiate with the other live-in nanny. You can take turns doing it every other day, or you can divide the workload equally.”
Mrs. Mercer asked with some surprise, "You hired another live-in nanny?"
Chen Feng nodded and said, "Yes, she'll be in charge of the other person's daily life. You'll mainly be in charge of Brina and Molly from now on. There will also be two security guards. You can take turns taking care of their meals, or you can divide them up and each take care of one. When the live-in nanny arrives, you can discuss the details with her. If it's difficult to discuss, you can come to me, Brina, and Molly to resolve it."
Mrs. Mercer immediately said, "Then I'll take care of Rachel's meals. The other security guard can be assigned to another live-in nanny."
“Okay, that works too. Of course, you should wait for the other live-in nanny to arrive before you can discuss and coordinate with her in detail.”
Mrs. Moses immediately nodded in agreement.
Chen Feng took out an employment contract and handed it to her according to procedure. Mrs. Mercer's eyesight was quite good; she wasn't wearing reading glasses or nearsighted glasses. She carefully examined the contract for several minutes, and only after confirming there were no problems did she sign her name with a pen.
Welcome to the company.
Chen Feng followed the usual procedure, standing up and shaking hands with the elderly woman. This was a necessary testing procedure. The results this time were very satisfactory. The elderly woman had no bad habits whatsoever; she didn't smoke, drink, or use any illegal substances. Moreover, her life was very regular; besides cooking, gardening, exercising, and watching television, she spent her days without any problems. Her private life was, of course, also perfectly fine.
Therefore, having her as a live-in nanny is clearly more suitable than having Eliza as a previous choice. The latter was a single mother raising her child, making it impossible for her to focus solely on her employer. Mrs. Mercer, on the other hand, has no other ties besides her daughter living far away in Canada.
After signing the contract, Mrs. Mercer said she could come to work the next morning. She could then drive over with her luggage and stay there.
Chen Feng and Brina had no objections and agreed that she could start work officially tomorrow. Soon, Rachel and Mrs. Mercer said their goodbyes and left.
Once the two outsiders left, Brina and Molly looked at Chen Feng with curiosity. Brina spoke first, asking, "Why did you give Sandra an advance of ten thousand dollars in salary?"
Molly, standing to the side, asked curiously, "What did you talk about with Sandra earlier? Why did you go into the room alone to talk?"
Chen Feng had already promised to keep Sandra's secret, so of course he wouldn't break his promise. He simply said to the two of them, "When I called Sandra into the room, I had a premonition that she might be in danger tomorrow, so I reminded her to try to avoid the danger tomorrow, otherwise we would have to find another security guard. Besides, I just happened to have a premonition, so not telling her would be tantamount to letting her die."
Upon hearing this, Molly asked in surprise, "Didn't you say that you can only foresee danger in people you are close to? How come you can foresee danger in Sandra after just meeting her?"
Chen Feng had almost forgotten about this. He had told Molly and Norma the same thing before, saying that he could only foresee danger in people he was close to.
Now that he has just met Sandra, it is somewhat contradictory that he foresaw Sandra's danger.
However, Chen Feng wasn't guilty at all, and said frankly without blushing or skipping a beat, "Before, I could only foresee the potential danger of someone after we became close. But recently, I don't know why, as long as it's someone I know, as long as I want to sense and foresee, I can predict whether they will be in danger in the future. Maybe my ability has evolved and strengthened."
Molly and Brina's eyes lit up at the news. They liked Chen Feng, even loved him. Besides his handsome looks and great physique, what mattered most was his air of mystery and his superpowers.
Otherwise, how could one be a heiress from a wealthy family and the other a middle-class woman who graduated from a prestigious university, willingly become Chen Feng's mistress?
"That's truly amazing." Molly exclaimed in amazement, having no doubt about Chen Feng's evolved superpower. Moreover, she harbored a deep, or rather urgent, desire to have a child with Chen Feng as soon as possible. And ideally, this child would inherit Chen Feng's ability to foresee danger—a special ability possessed by their family's ancestors.
Therefore, their family's descendants should have inherited this superpower, but now it has been inherited by Chen Feng.
Unlike Molly, Brina simply idolized Chen Feng. She felt he was becoming increasingly capable, and while happy, she also felt nervous and inferior. She felt she was becoming less and less worthy of Chen Feng; after all, he was getting richer, more outstanding, and more capable, while she felt she was still standing still.
Fortunately, Chen Feng had promised to help her conceive and have a child in the second half of next year. She believed that once the child was born, she would be bound to Chen Feng. Thinking of this, she felt a little more at ease. So she continued with some curiosity, asking, "What danger did you foresee for her?"
Chen Feng could only say vaguely, "She was in a car accident. I didn't know any more details, so I reminded her not to go out tomorrow."
Brina nodded and said, "Then if you tell her this, will she believe you?"
"At first she didn't believe it, then she was skeptical. So I told her I could give her a month's salary in advance, on the condition that she be careful about her personal safety for the next couple of days. She agreed."
Molly sighed, "You really are a good boss. You even advanced her a month's salary to convince her. If it were me, I definitely wouldn't try to persuade her anymore if she didn't believe me, let alone use this method to make her believe. After all, it's her life. If she doesn't believe me and something bad happens to her, it has nothing to do with you."
Brina objected, saying, "This is, after all, a living being. We can't abandon her life just because she doesn't trust you. Besides, we've already signed a formal employment contract with her; she's now our employee. If we didn't know she might be in danger, that would be one thing, but now that we know, I think we should try to save her life."
Molly shrugged, somewhat unconvinced by Brina's argument. However, she didn't argue, simply smiling and saying, "Okay. Maybe you're right. Sandra does seem alright; after all, she was a police officer. Having her here as our security guard makes us feel safer."
“Yes. My cousins Rachel and Sandra both used to be police officers and have fired guns. I feel very safe with them. So, Chen Feng did the right thing this time. If he could save Sandra's life, he had to. Getting an advance of $10,000 in salary is no big deal. After all, it's just one month's pay.”
Then, Chen Feng said to Brina, "Brina, I will transfer one million US dollars to your account. From now on, you will be in charge of managing and paying for all expenses of this villa. If you need more money, just let me know and I will transfer it to you."
Brina wasn't particularly pleased to hear this, and frowned slightly as she said, "I can only stay here for a month at most. I have to go to Xiuzhou to report for duty after that. Once I'm in Xiuzhou, who do you plan to entrust things here to?"
The implication is that Brina is worried that Chen Feng will also give Luna this kind of financial power.
Chen Feng, of course, knew her concerns, so he smiled and said, "Don't worry. After you leave, I will hand over the financial control here to your father. But you should also check and help audit it, since your father may hand over the financial expenditures here to someone else."
Upon hearing Chen Feng's words, Brina immediately perked up and smiled, saying, "That's good. I'll check all the monthly expenses to make sure no one takes advantage of any loopholes, since we won't be staying here as often in the future. Also, I don't agree with you handing over full management of this villa to that young model. She's too young, and she's not the mistress of this place; you can't give her unrealistic fantasies."
I think you can easily find another house for her; there's no need to bring her to live in this villa. She's only known you for a few days, and I don't think she deserves to live in such a nice villa.”
Chen Feng didn't bother arguing with her, and simply changed the subject, asking, "What do you think of my arrangements for these four employees?" (End of Chapter)
