Dangerous Love: You Are My One and Only Bride novel Chapter 457

Arianne had managed to fine tune her emotions into the best possible state by the time she returned to the shop. Tanya Anderson, the staff member in charge of deliveries, greeted her apprehensively, “Have I been too slow, Ari?”

Arianne was taken aback. It took her awhile before she realized what Tanya meant. “No, I just happened to have some free time, so I helped you with a delivery. It’s fine, go back to work. I’m going into the kitchen.”

Tanya was born and bred in the city. Her family’s financial situation wasn’t too great, so she could not continue her studies after getting into university. Instead, she started working very early. She had a senile old grandfather at home and was pretty down to earth. She had delicate and pretty good looks, although she was slightly tanned due to constantly being on the move.

Tanya was much more earnest compared to the other employee, Regina McKaren, who was in charge of serving the customers. Regina did not even finish high school and had entered society very early. She had never really enriched her life with diverse experiences but was very well-versed in dressing up. She absolutely had to put on makeup before coming to work every day, thick makeup at that. The clothes she wore were bargain goods, always something different every day of the month, with her nails forever painted red. Usually, Tanya would help Regina out with serving the customers whenever there were no deliveries.

Behind the scenes, Tiffany had been through many discussions with Arianne on letting Regina go. There wasn’t much work to do in the shop and the salary that they provided was higher than other shops. Regina was the slowest among the four of them and wasn’t much help. Arianne was usually more easy-going and had defended Regina many times before.

Tiffany brought up Regina’s dismissal again when Arianne returned, “Look, Ari. Do you see what Regina has been doing? She bosses Tanya around whenever she’s in the shop, then sits down somewhere and fiddles with her phone. She’s not any younger than we are, is she? Does she not have any sense of awareness? I don’t care what you say, I’m letting her go today!”

Arianne glanced outside. There were twelve tables in the shop, eight of which were occupied by customers. Tanya was working hard and taking care of the customers, then standing at the shop entrance to greet the customers. Whenever a customer called for a service, she would move faster than anyone else. Regina, however, stood by an empty spot and played with her phone, smiling foolishly. She was a good-looking girl, but for some reason, did not seem very likeable.
