When Gwendolyn asked about her face, the young woman cupped her bandaged cheek.

“Hello, Ms. Harris. My name is Gina Worrell. Two days ago, I fell down the stairs and injured my left cheek. But don’t you worry, Ms. Harris. I promise it won’t affect my working hours. Besides, I heal fast.”

The moment she spoke, a hoarse voice that was unpleasant to hear and ear-piercing sounded.

Holding Zendaya in her arms, Gwendolyn gently patted the baby and quickly retracted her gaze. “You’re not suitable for the job. Please leave.”

Nico tried to take Gina away.

However, Gina refused to budge and instead asked bitterly, “Ms. Harris, you refuse to hire me even before assessing my job qualifications. Is it because of my face? It turns out you judge people by their looks too, Ms. Harris.”

Slightly furrowing her brows, Gwendolyn looked up and met Gina’s eyes again.

Noticing Gwendolyn’s anger, Nico hurriedly dragged Gina away. “What are you talking about? I’ve never seen a job candidate as rude as you. How could you accuse her of judging you by your looks when she didn’t give you the job? Are you guilt-tripping her now?”

Nico’s forceful motions caused Gina to take two steps toward the door.

At long last, Gwendolyn, who lay in bed, spoke. “There are four reasons why I refuse to hire you. One, your voice is so unpleasant to hear and would easily scare the babies. Two, from the way you look at me, you don’t seem humble. Three, there is no affection in that sharp gaze of yours. Lastly, and the most important point, is that there’s something about you that just grates on me. I don’t like you, so I don’t have to assess your qualifications.”

Her tone was calm and blunt as if she was talking about the weather.

Nico then chimed in, “Did you hear that? Are you satisfied yet? Now, hurry up and leave.”

Gina had no choice but to turn and leave. When she reached the door, she suddenly looked back and asked with a smirk, “Ms. Harris, are you sure you can be at ease?”

Before Nico could yell at her, she went downstairs.

Nico stood frozen to his spot, stunned for a second, before hurriedly apologizing to Gwendolyn, “Gwendolyn, I’m sorry. I promise I will be more careful when looking for a nanny from now on. I won’t bring any weirdos here again.”

Gwendolyn nodded with a hum and continued coaxing Zendaya, who was in her arms.

What Gina said before she left suddenly replayed in Gwendolyn’s mind non-stop.

That last look in Gina’s eyes earlier…

Something suddenly dawned on her and made her look at Nico sternly. “Hurry up and go after her! Bring her back at all costs!”

“All right, Gwendolyn.”
