Chapter 1212:
“I don’t want to accept this job,” Milford decisively stated as he tossed the card into the trash. “Barry, thanks for
everything lately, but | need to leave now.”
“What will you do if you leave?” Barry asked, concern evident in his tone.
“I've got an idea. The construction site is swarming with workers. Mr. Dawson might inspect my company, but he
won't scrutinize every employee. I've been here for years and still have accounts to collect. How about you help
you agree, I'll take you shopping for a new outfit right away.”
Milford felt uneasy about the task. Unfamiliar with such a job, he feared making a mistake.
Seeing Milford’s hesitation, Barry quickly explained, “This job is challenging. It's tough getting the balance of
payments from those construction sites. Sometimes, you will succeed after several visits, but spayments
take a year or two to cthrough. It’s a difficult role, and | can’t leave it to just anyone. | need you to handle it
because | trust you.”
“Okay,” Milford replied, understanding the situation. He was aware that Bryan already knew that he was in
Esterford.
The nature of the job, requiring him to move frequently, suited him well since he couldn't remain stationary for

Before she could finish speaking, she caught sight of a familiar face nearby.

Adalina’s heart skipped a beat. She broke free from Aaron’s grip and hurried after the figure.
“Adalina, wait! | need sadvice. | saw your dad’s suits and thought you could helppick something out,”
Aaron called after her. He quickly caught up with her and blocked her path.
Adalina, clearly frustrated, pushed him away. “I can’t help you, Aaron. My dad's clothes? My mom picks them
out. And trust me, she doesn’t care about my opinion.”
She barely finished speaking before continuing her chase, but the figure had vanished.
