"No need, I'll wash this myself," Adam Walker dodged her palm and headed to the Restroom, carefully placing the two pieces of clothing into the basin. After a moment of thought, he went upstairs to get some cash and called Lanzi, who was busy in the kitchen, out.
"Sit down, I have a few words to say to you."
Lanzi wiped her hands and sat down opposite him.
Adam then placed the two stacks of cash on the table.
"Take this money, consider it an advance on your salary for one year."
"You... What is this for?!" Lanzi asked, puzzled.
"I'm sorry, Lanzi, it's not that you haven't done a good job, it's just that I... I can no longer keep you."
For one, it was inconvenient for him, a grown man, to keep a young Nanny.
Secondly, there really was no need to keep her.
He had hired her to take care of Ajin, but he spent most of the year away from home, and there was no real need for a nanny.
Also... he didn't want Lady Byron to arrive in Bitterford and see another woman in his house.
