Chapter 70
I’d always thought that I’d have to go through life alone. I’d forced myself to accept the fact
that I might forever have to stand up for myself in the face of all adversaries I might face.
But they’d showed me that something else was in store for me. And they’d made it pretty
clear that they would stand by me no matter what.
“Thank you.” I mumbled, my voice barely audible.
The way their gazes flickered to me let me know that they heard. Olavir had a small smile
on his face.
As good as it felt to have them throw their support behind me, I’d also just realize the situation on ground.
“Um…guys,” I looked at them.
Cyrus frowned. “What’s the matter?”
“I don’t have a job anymore.” I admitted, the words still sounding strange to my ears.
I’d managed to get a job and it seemed I already blew it up. This didn’t make me feel better.
one bit. It seemed to add more to my misery.
“You don’t have to worry about that.” Haelor’s voice broke through the silence.
“I don’t?”
He shook his head. “I can accompany you over the next few days to look for a new position.”
I hummed, letting his words sink in. I’d have to find a new job sooner or later. I didn’t plan
on staying idle like that, neither had the thought ever occurred to me to do so.
“Sounds like a plan.” I smiled.
Later that night, I’d settled to eating my dinner in silence while my brothers recounted everything that had happened.

Olavir seemed the most enthusiastic about recounting everything. He explained it in such an animated way that I couldn’t hold back my laughter at some point.
“I think we should teach her a lesson.” He said after he’d finished, putting a forkful of
sautéed shrimp into his mouth.
“I still can’t believe you actually slapped her.” Merhold chuckled.
“Oh please,” Greyven rolled his eyes. “It’s just a slap to Agnrs. Olavir was just exaggerating it
make it seem like it’s some big deal.”
“Do you think she’ll press charges?” I asked, unable to hold back the question that had been
biting at me for quite some time now.
“Our family can afford to pay for any damages.” Greyven waved his hand like it was no big
deal.
It was funny how they all went back to their dinner like the threat of a possible law suit meant nothing to them.
Haelor took a sip of his wine before turning to look at me. I could see the protectiveness in
his eyes as his gaze lingered.
“It doesn’t matter if Adella slapped her. If there’s a problem, Agnrs‘ father can come see me.
After that day, I’d done some more research on some possible places that would be nice to work in. I’d shortlisted a couple of organizations and companies that looked promising. All that remained was for me to go for the interview.
True to his word, Haelor had accompanied me to every interview I set my sights on. I’d gotten a lot of offers and started selecting positions that genuinely interested me.
Haelor had given himself the position of a driver and took me to every single destination I
had in mind.
Today, I’d come across a small start–up company that looked promising. After a lot of deliberating, I’d decided to ask Haelor to accompany me there.
The drive to the company building was calming. I looked out the window, allowing myself to get lost in the scenery that passed me by in a blur.

“We’re here” Haelor said as he entered the parking lot of the building.
He helped me out of the car and we made our way into the building. From my research, the primary business of the start–up was selling properties for a massive real estate group.
“Are you ready?” Haelor’s voice was low as we entered the reception. The receptionist sent him a small bow which he responded to with a curt nod.
“As ready as I’ll ever be.”
He gave my shoulder a light squeeze. “All the best, princess.”
Hearing him say that sent a warm feeling down my chest. I didn’t think I’d ever get used to being called that.
I asked for some directions from an employee I saw and finally made it to the interview room. All eyes were on me as soon as I walked through the door.
I swallowed in a breath and made my way further into the room. Seated before a large table was a small group of people comprising of both men and women.
“Hello, I’m Adella. I’m here for the interview.” I said, a small smile on my face.
“Thank you for applying here.” One of the women smiled. “We look forward to getting to know you better.”
