Chapter 92
If she had lost it under normal circumstances, she could have just gotten it replaced, but not in this situation. However, she could not do anything without her identity card, and she did not want to go back to the Jent residence.
Madelyn had never had much patience for Wonda and usually just turned a blind eye her, which was much better than Wonda deserved in her eyes.

If she still had her old temper, Madelyn would have shoved the trash can over Wonda’s head by now.
“Wonda, I have my mother’s photo in that purse, and it’s very important to me. Also, there are important documents inside… If you want money, I can give it to you. Everything else in there is useless to you, can you just return it to me?”
Wonda kicked the trash can aside, and its contents spilled out. She snapped, “What’s the meaning of this, Madelyn? What does your missing purse have to do with me!? I didn’t take your wallet, so what are you accusing me for? If you don’t believe me, then make a police report!”
Her voice was so loud that the entire restaurant could hear her.
Madelyn scratched her head in frustration as she said somewhat helplessly, “Wonda… I’ve never done anything to hurt you! If you want my hand cream, I can even give it to you. Just give me back my purse and I’ll treat it like nothing’s happened.”
“Madelyn, I’m saying I didn’t take your purse! Why are you accusing me like this?!”
Mr. Massey heard the commotion and did not know what was happening, so he hurried over.” What happened?”
“Lass, aren’t you working the late shift tonight? What are you doing here so early today?” Content is © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.
Madelyn responded bluntly, “Mr. Massey, I dropped my purse, and there’s a really important photograph inside it alongside my IDs. Also, I actually came to tender my resignation and go back to my grandmother’s place, but without my ID, I can’t even buy any tickets.”
“What’s the matter, lass? Why are you so eager to leave out of the blue?”
She did not want to talk about what happened last night, since thinking about it would just make her feel more distressed. Besides, she did not want to make a big deal of the matter either.
Madelyn tried to weasel out of talking about it, instead saying, “I just miss home. Can you help me make a police report for the lost purse?”
“What does your purse look like? I’ll get some people to help you look for it.”
Madelyn looked at Wonda, who eyes were now red as she looked away impassively. “It’s a pink Chanel purse with a logo on it. My student ID and national ID card is inside the purse. The most important thing in there is my national ID.”
Mr. Massey let out a slightly dejected look. “It’ll be difficult to find your lost purse, and your Cha-what- its-name, must be pretty pricey. I suppose anyone who picks it up will not return it to you. How about this, just tell me how much you need, and I’ll give you the money.”
Madelyn bit her lips. “Mr. Massey, can you buy me a bus ticket straight to Lorville? I want to leave today.”
“Wow, are you really in that much of a hurry? I’m afraid it won’t be possible, at least not today. How about tomorrow afternoon? I’ll go buy the ticket for you tomorrow.”
“I guess that’s the only option I have,” Madelyn nodded. “Alright, thank you, Mr. Massey. You can deduct the bus fare from my salary.”
“Pah, don’t sweat the small stuff. But tell me, Madelyn, are you really leaving? Does Rosario know about this?”
“I’ll inform Rosario later tonight.”
Mr. Massey nodded. “Alright then. Give me a minute, I’ll calculate your remaining salary for the past few days.”
The amount Madelyn got was about two thousand, and this was a huge amount of money for
her.
Yet, compared to what Hayson had given her, two thousand was just the price of a skirt.
