Chapter 5

Elena, noticing Oliver following her into her office, furrowed her brows, suspecting he might be seeking more bonuses or possibly something else.

Probably from the aftermath of the recent incident, she wondered if Oliver harboured explicit thoughts, perhaps intending to ask her out. Flashes of anger crossed her face, and she snapped, "what are you looking for, can you please get out".

Oliver wanted to talk but she raised her hand, "I'm not in for anything, don't further spoil the day for me".

Remaining composed, Oliver calmly presented the prepared resignation letter, stating, "I want to resign."

Elena bit her lips , felt a twinge of shame.

Oliver was known for his calm and good character, He would never do all what she thought.

Elena's eyes widened in surprise as she gazed at him, her voice filled with concern, "Resign... What happened? What did I do?".

"Nothing, boss. I just feel it's time for me to start a new chapter in my life."

A wave of sadness washed over Elena. Oliver had been the epitome of hard work in her office, and she was on the verge of promoting him.

"I was even about to promote you," she said, her tone subtly hinting that perhaps this revelation could make him change his decision.

"Thanks, I appreciate... but I have to resign," he said.

Elena frowned at herself; this shouldn’t be. She was even preparing to use Oliver as a shield and called his own boyfriend from that fat man, but that just failed. She was sad.

She accepted the resignation letter, “Okay, anyhow you want… you can go.”

Oliver bowed and turned to leave but then paused; he was curious about the event that happened.

He asked Elena, “Ma’am, do you have any problems with that fat man?”

Elena looked at him; she didn’t want to tell anyone about it. No at all, especially her employee, but since he had resigned, she decided to open up for him.

“I am in dire need of financial assistance, so I need an investment from that old man, but he is even a bad idea on me and even threatens me,” she said, in a way Oliver couldn’t fully understand.

Oliver calmly asked, “How much is the money you want?”.

Elena looked at him like he wasn’t there.

“Please, may I know the amount you are in dire need of?” he asked.

“So much that you can’t have that amount of money, let's end it here,” she said.

Oliver smiled, “I can be of help.”

“Stop uttering nonsense; there is no way you can help me in this situation than to give me the needed money, and you can’t even afford one percent of it. The money covered all your one-year salary.”

"I know, but I can be of help if you really need it", Oliver stated.

"stop teasing me. I am getting annoyed, so Please let me be", Elena stated.

"I am not teasing, I can pay the money" he said.

"I think you are deaf and don't hear what I said. that amount of money could feed you for a year", Elena stated.

Olive stayed calm and nodded; he understood Samantha. Everyone would have the same thought. Your employee telling his boss he could take care of his financial assistance.

Oliver threw a card on the table, and Elena was surprised; she had not seen a card with that structure and pattern, it really looked nice.

“What is this?” she asked, frowning her face.

Oliver answered gently, “A bank card, and you can withdraw any amount you want.”

Elena rolled her eyes, "I am not in for any joke now. Please take your card".

"If you are really in dire financial need, you will need it", Oliver said.

Elena scoffed, trying hard not to laugh out loud.

“Is this even a bank card? And moreover, there is no way you can have the amount I need,” she said.

“Just withdraw any amount you want and see; it doesn’t have a password,” Oliver said.

Elena was angry, thinking that Olive was playing with her, “Is this funny to you? Just because you are resigning, are you deliberately mocking?” She pushed the card back to him.

“How about you just give it a try. Withdraw any amount,” Oliver said.

She glared at him for some moments and said, “If there's really money in this card that can save my company, I could marry you.”
