Chapter 119 Victoria's Secret

Seeing Ayesha so emotional, Owen immediately went up and hugged her.

After struggling to no avail, Ayesha felt Owen gently patting her back and immediately broke down in tears.

Ignoring the strange looks from passersby, Irving quietly held Ayesha in his arms.

After Ayesha calmed down.

Only then did he learn that the other person had been incredibly unlucky these past two days.

Not only did the restaurant where she worked suddenly close down, but her boss also mysteriously disappeared, owing her two weeks' wages.

Moreover, he was robbed of the last two hundred dollars he had on him on the way.

Left with no other choice, she went to the relief station to receive meals.

Unexpectedly, they were harassed by some homeless people on the street.

All these factors combined led to Ayesha's emotional breakdown.

"Alright, don't worry, I'll help you." Owen gently reassured Ayesha. After confirming that she had calmed down, he suddenly had a good idea and looked at Ayesha to ask, "How about this? My pawn shop is short-staffed right now. If you don't mind, you can come and help out at my place. What do you think?"

"A pawnshop?" Ayesha gently wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes, slightly taken aback.

"Yes, I haven't been in charge for long, and someone needs to be there every day," Owen explained.

"Although I just hired two people, I'm a little worried. If you go, you can help keep an eye on them. Don't worry, I'll pay you your salary as usual."

"If I receive some good stuff, I'll give you an extra bonus. What do you think?"

Irving's expression was serious, showing no sign of joking.

After all, he might be heading to the film set next week to officially begin preparations for filming.

At that time, the pawnshop's business will definitely be affected to some extent.

If we could hire a few more people to help beforehand, that would be ideal.

Upon hearing what Irving said, Ayesha immediately fell into deep thought.

To be honest, Irving's suggestion is quite good.

Working at a pawnshop would not only be easy, but the income also seems quite good. Plus, since the pawnshop owner is Irving, there's basically no need to worry about workplace bullying.

However, considering her current relationship with Irving, Ayesha hesitated.

Just then, a police siren suddenly came from afar.

"Shit!!" Owen suddenly cursed.

Before Ayesha could react, he grabbed her and ran towards the roadside.

"Owen, what's wrong?" Ayesha asked, looking puzzled.

"The police are here! My car wasn't parked in a parking space!"

As he spoke, Irving pulled Ayesha to the roadside and got into the car.

Start the vehicle and drive off with a tap on the gas.

Irving looked at the police officer who was standing there with his hands shrugged, and then breathed a long sigh of relief.

Seeing a smile on Ayesha's face as she sat in the passenger seat, Owen immediately continued, "How about it, Ayesha? If you'd like, you can go and take a look at my pawn shop now."

""

Ayesha nodded, then, as if remembering something, quickly said, "I'm willing to go to work, but I have one condition."

"What are your requirements?" Owen asked, looking at her curiously.

"In the pawnshop, we have a purely boss-employee relationship." Ayesha took a deep breath. "You can't seduce me and drag me to bed—"

"What if you try to seduce me?" Irving shrugged.

Ayesha immediately rolled her eyes and joked, "That's impossible. Only you men can't control your lower bodies."

Irving was speechless. He had originally wanted to retort, but thinking of Ayesha's previous heartbreak, he silently shut his mouth.

As night fell, half an hour later, Owen drove to the pawnshop.

After entering the pawn shop and turning on the lights, Owen explained the interior of the pawn shop to Ayesha.

"This is the sales area. Most of the items are priced. If a customer buys something, you can just scan it at the cashier and pay the corresponding amount."

As Irving spoke, he suddenly noticed some discounted items and then reminded them, "By the way, when you check out, please note that these discounted items are only available to members. If a customer doesn't have a membership, you can ask them to sign up. The requirements for signing up are a single purchase exceeding $200, or having sold some items here before —"

Ayesha nodded, quietly took out her phone, and memorized the precautions Irving had mentioned.

Before long, the two arrived at the warehouse.

After briefly introducing the layout of the warehouse, Owen suddenly remembered something, then pointed to an empty warehouse that looked quite large and instructed, "By the way, I might ask a renovation company to come tomorrow and simply divide this warehouse into two separate rooms to serve as bedrooms."

"Two separate rooms?" Ayesha asked, puzzled.

Seeing this, Owen quickly explained, "It's like this, you have another colleague whose situation is a bit special; she needs to live in the pawn shop with her younger brother—"

"This colleague... isn't she also a girl?" Ayesha paused for a moment before asking.

Seeing Irving nod, Ayesha rolled her eyes. "I knew it. You don't have feelings for this colleague either, do you?"

Owen was speechless, realizing that what he had done earlier had misled Ayesha. He explained, "Don't worry, that's not it. I just happened to run into this girl and saw that she was homeless, so I helped her out."

"

"I understand. Just because you don't have any ideas now doesn't mean you won't make a move later." Ayesha looked at him strangely.

"More or less." Sensing the obvious jealousy in Ayesha's voice, Owen shrugged and said deliberately.

"You beast! You already have Tina and you're still not satisfied!" Ayesha glared at Owen fiercely, whether out of indignation for Tina or jealousy.

"You know perfectly well that Tina and I are just good friends. Morally and legally speaking, I'm currently single."

Irving shrugged, spread his hands, and looked completely unconcerned. "What, jealous?"

Ayesha rolled her eyes, too lazy to argue with Owen anymore, and went to familiarize herself with the warehouse.

Irving looked at Ayesha, who was intently observing the warehouse.

Her long, flowing golden hair, delicate profile, and curvaceous figure made her look stunningly beautiful under the bright yellow lights.

He immediately took a deep breath and slowly walked forward.

Ayesha glanced at the shelves crammed full of various goods and was about to ask Owen how to organize them.

The next second, she was pulled into Owen's arms.

"Ugh, what are you doing!" Ayesha lightly punched Owen with both fists, just about to refuse.

Irving couldn't wait to kiss her, and his hot breath made Ayesha's legs go weak.

Irving quickly got the hang of it.

I was surprised to see Ayesha wearing the latest Victoria's Secret collection.

Irving was breathing rapidly.

Soon, the paid program began airing.
