Chapter 20 Disappointment

Shannon could tell from his face that he was not satisfied for what she did.

She made a mistake this time, but she was not intentional. She was so dizzy for anemia or something. Besides, the situation at that time was not under her control.

Shannon followed Ethan upstairs as before. Unexpectedly, Ethan went directly into Wesley and Nancy’s room instead of the study room. Then Shannon lowered her head and followed him in a messy and nervous mood.

She decided to resign.

After receiving the mail, she was in a low mood. A person like her was not eligible to take care of the two babies.

“Oh my…”

Shannon was so lost in her thoughts that she bumped into a thick and solid “wall”. Looking up, she found it was Ethan.

She was surrounded by his faint mint scent. The scent brought back memories of the dream...

She rebounded from his chest, keeping a distance from him.

“Don’t you walk without looking?” Ethan frowned.

“Sorry, sir.”

Shannon replied in a low voice as a mosquito, feeling like suffocating everytime hearing his voice.

Ethan opened the door and walked in.

Inside the room, the two babies were crying. They were held by two strange women who comforted and tried to feed them separately. However, the two babies showed no interests. Instead, they looked towards the direction of Shannon.

Seeing this, Ethan seemed more worried.

Shannon resisted her urge to go forward and carry them, standing behind Ethan.

Coade walked in flurriedly, “Mr. Yates, these two nannies from Modopolis were hired by Madam Yates. She also called me personally and persisted to make them stay...”

Without a word, Ethan took off his coat and walked over, “Give me the babies. You two go out.”

The two nannies stumbled and looked at each other for a while without actions.

Ethan was displeased for that. He took Wesley over and swayed him back and forth, “Both of you are required to be trained about the babies’ temperaments. Coade will tell you all of these. Go ahead and do it.”

As he said that, he looked towards Shannon.

Receiving his message, Shannon walked over and took Nancy away from the other nanny.

Nancy stopped crying, looked at Shannon with her big round eyes, and smiled through tears.

Shannon couldn’t help but kiss her on the cheek.

Ethan put Wesley on the cradle, and then carried Nancy over. He looked at Shannon, “You look pale. Are you uncomfortable?”

“Just a little dizzy. I feel better now.”

“Don’t run around when not feeling well next time. Of course, I won’t stop you when you want to meet Mason.” He said that in a heartless tone, which was simply unacceptable for Shannon.

Shannon did not explain the affair. She felt it unnecessary since she had decided to leave, even though she was not willing to depart from Wesley and Nancy.

“Sir, I want to resign. I have failed your expectations. I can’t devote myself to caring Wesley and Nancy.” Shannon took a deep breath, summoning up her courage to look at Ethan.

“Fine.” Ethan categorically agreed to her resignation without even thinking.

Just as Shannon expected, Ethan did not hesitate to grant her resignation. However, she was a little disappointed. She hid her emotions deep, and then forced a smiling face, “Thank you, Mr. Yates.”

“Before you leave, take the Confidentiality Agreement out and look it over again.” Ethan reminded her calmly and gazed at her.
