The Wolf King Divorced, I Became a Prisoner

Chapter 3: Getting Beaten

Aili told me that if I have any difficulties, I can always ask her for help.

The next step is for me to find a job. I know that having just come out of prison, it’s already good if I can find work. When I was Luna, the Alpha Wolf King, I never needed to work, but now it’s different. I need to earn money to support myself.

I went to a restaurant to apply for a job. The restaurant owner glanced at me and said somewhat regretfully, "Actually, your facial features are quite good, and you're tall, but you have difficulty walking, so you're not really suitable to be a waiter."

I told him, "I can wash dishes in the kitchen, as long as you can give me a job."

The restaurant owner agreed readily. The monthly pay wasn't much, but it was enough for me to support myself.

Although there weren't many people in this restaurant, everyone was quite friendly, and I felt a long-lost warmth here again.

One day, after we finished washing the mountain of dishes, a few of us gathered in the back to eat together.

The small leader in the kitchen was a middle-aged woman named WuNa,and she looked at the way I was eating with some sympathy and said, "Did you come from a well-off family before? Did your family fall on hard times, which is why you ended up washing dishes here?"

When I heard this, my movements stiffened for a moment, not knowing how she could tell.

She told me, "The way you eat is very graceful, like a wealthy young lady, very different from us people at the bottom."

Hearing this, my thoughts swirled, and I gently bit my lip. It seemed like I had a lot to say, but in the end, I swallowed it all and only said, "I'm the same as everyone else now."

Christmas is coming soon, and many people are especially busy. This restaurant has a lot of customers every day, so there are many dishes to wash, and there are almost not enough waiters.

That day Una said to me, "The dining hall is overwhelmed, someone took a few days off to go home recently, so you should go help carry some plates."

I was very surprised and said, "Me?"

But I have scars on my face, and the way I walk is also not attractive.

WuNa said anxiously, "You go quickly."

I could only agree, carrying the tray to the designated table, and said to the guest, "Please enjoy."

I was just about to leave when I heard a somewhat familiar voice call out to me.

Vivian, is that you?

I turned around somewhat incredulously. Could I really run into someone I knew in such a small restaurant?

When I turned around, I found it was actually my cousin, Tina.

Tina looked at me and sneered, "Weren't you in prison? How did you get out? Did you sneak out secretly?"

Luna, who was once the Alpha wolf king, has now fallen to working as a waitress in a small restaurant. You're really pathetic.

I walked over and told her, "Everyone is equal. Even as a waitress, I support myself and have nothing to be ashamed of. Besides, even if this is just a small restaurant, aren't you here to eat too?"

But she didn't seem as easy to talk to as I had imagined,she angrily slapped the table, stared at me fiercely, walked over, and directly slapped me. She then hissed at me, "You still act so arrogant here, do you know why? Because of the huge loss you brought to the family, now our entire family is despised by others, all because of you, the murderer."

Is hook off her, "I've already said, I didn't kill Edith, what does that have to do with you?"

A young man beside pulled Tina aside and said to her, "Alright, no need to stoop to the level of the waiter, just sit down and eat."

Only then did I realize that sitting at the same table as Tina was also a young man.

But I didn't know him, I just lightly nodded at him.

Tina sat down on the stool angrily, then deliberately spilled the food from the plate onto the table and said to me, "Clean it up."

I said, "Please don't make things difficult for me."

She took advantage of me rolling my eyes, grabbed the whole plate, and slammed it on my head. "I told you to clean it up, didn't you hear? Isn't this the kind of thing a waiter like you is supposed to do?"

The hot soup ran down my face, and I felt a burning pain on my skin.

I felt very humiliated, but I knew I couldn’t hit back because that would damage the restaurant’s reputation. Having just been released from prison, I didn’t want to cause trouble.

Una saw me like this and hurriedly stepped forward to smooth things over, saying, “I’m sorry, ma’am, this is our new dishwasher, she has little experience, please bear with her. I’ll have her leave right away.”

She scolded, “ I only asked you to carry a plate, how could you argue with a customer?Tina is one of our members, if you offend her, do you want to lose your job?”

I lowered my head and said, "She was the one who bullied me first."

Wuna waved her hand and said to me, "You should go to the kitchen to wash dishes. I don't care what grudges you have with her, but since you came here as an employee, you need to behave yourself."

I didn't want to lose this job, so I could only nod in agreement.

I originally got along well with the people in this restaurant, but ever since Tina came and caused a scene, everyone's attitude towards me seems to have changed.

Before, when we ate, they would always call me together, but now they all gather together, and I sit alone in the corner.

That day, a young girl came over and said to me, “Table 3 wants a cup of black tea, please help deliver it.”

As a result, I brought a cup of black tea to the customer at table 3. He was very angry and directly waved his hand, spilling the entire cup of black tea on my hand. That tea was brewed with freshly boiled 100-degree water, and it spilled on my hand, making it red and swollen.

He impatiently shouted, “I’ve told you several times, I don’t want black tea, I want green tea. Why do you still bring me black tea? Is this how your restaurant treats customers?”

But he glanced at me with a clearly stunned expression. My hand hurt badly, as if it was about to break, but I didn’t dare to touch it.

Seeing that I was about to cry, he apologized again, saying, "I'm sorry, I didn't mean to hurt you. Did you get burned? Do you want to go to the hospital?"

I held back my tears and shook my head, then ran to the kitchen alone to treat the wound myself. I didn’t want to be bullied anymore, but if this keeps up, how am I going to find out the truth and get revenge?

I’m alone in this small restaurant. Am I really hoping that one day the wolf king Alpha will come to eat here and see me?

Third person.

But in fact Alpha was indeed thinking about Vivian.

She was often asked by the Beta beside him during the time she was locked in prison, " How is Vivian doing in prison now?"
