"For the love we once shared, I can give you a ride. You've never been in a sports car before, have you?"
Nina said with arrogance and self-satisfaction in her tone. I didn't answer her words but turned away directly.
Her mocking voice sounded behind me.
"Jacob, just keep walking on your own legs your whole life!"
I took out a mask from my pocket, put it on, and put on the hat of my clothes. After disguising myself, I walked towards the store where I bought the lottery ticket that day to cash in my prize.
After cashing in my prize, I refused all the reporters' interviews and didn't rush home, but followed the path to a random clothing shop and changed out of my clothes before coming back out.
And the first decision I made was to resign from the current company.
I had been working in this company since I graduated from university.
Not only was the work hard, but the boss also occasionally found reasons to scold us.
The interns who came in at the same time as me had almost left, and the reason I had been sticking around was Nina.
I worked hard in the company, just to get a small commission every month, so that I could give Nina a better life.
I didn’t dare to quit or rest. I didn’t even give myself much time for lunch every day.
But now, I finally had the confidence to resign.
"You want to quit?"
The boss raised an eyebrow and looked at me, with a faint smile in his eyes for some unknown reason.
I ignored the uncomfortable feeling and nodded.
He turned the pen in his hand and casually put my resignation letter aside. When he looked at me and smiled with his eyes narrowed, I saw the wrinkles at the corners of his eyes.
"Jacob, it's not easy to find a job now. Your wife hasn't been working, right? What will she do now that you've resigned?"
I instinctively frowned.
"Don't worry, boss."
But he seemed determined to care about my private affairs.
The boss stood up and walked over to me, patting me on the shoulder.
“Young man, it's common for life to not go well. If you have any disagreements with your wife, you should be tolerant of her.”
“After all, it's not easy to get married without a house or a car nowadays.”
There was an obvious smirk in his tone, which wasn't friendly.
I compressed my lips and didn't want to say much. I nodded casually and turned to leave.
After all, resigning didn’t require the boss's approval.
