Chapter 68: This Person is Similar to That Person
The night passed, the day came, and when dawn just appeared, Kevin left home and drove to the company. As soon as he entered the main hall, Venn came forward and helped him carry his briefcase.
Venn happily informed him that he had just seen Daisy’s daughter come to interview for the receptionist position.
Even though Emily ran away, Kevin still hired Daisy to come to the house he owned to help him look after and clean.From NôvelDrama.Org.
He originally planned to move there after getting married, but in the end, things didn’t go as planned.
“What time does the meeting start?” Kevin ignored the information provided and asked.
“Nine o’clock.”
The elevator quickly took the two men to the top floor. Because the elevator has transparent glass walls, Kevin can easily see the outside scene.
And when the image of the girl with two pigtails and wearing a simple white dress caught his eye, he thought he was dreaming.
“Emily, that’s her, right?” He lowered the phone and turned to ask Venn.
The assistant immediately looked in the direction of his boss’s hand and he quickly realized that the girl Kevin was talking about was Daisy’s talented daughter.
This morning, he saw her standing at the security post so he came over to ask a few questions because he found her quite adorable and most importantly, her face somewhat resembled the bright moonlight in his boss’s heart.
“That’s Lisa, Daisy’s daughter.” Venn replied.
A bit of disappointment crept into Kevin’s newly excited heart. He wasn’t nearsighted, but because he missed Emily so much, he saw chickens turn into birds.
That appearance resembles Emily in her youth, not like the current Emily. The current Emily does not need his love.
Why was it that the two times she pursued him, she succeeded in making him fall for her, but when he pursued her, she was like an emotionless piece of wood?
The meeting started at nine o’clock, so during this time, Kevin and Venn took advantage of the time to process the documents piled up like a small mountain in front of them.
If Kevin works hard, Venn is not happy. The position of deputy general director has not yet been appointed and is empty, so documents that need approval from senior leaders all flow to this small office.
“I will appoint you as deputy general director.” Kevin just signed the document and proposed.
Venn heard Kevin speak as if there was a thunderclap in his ears. Even if he dreamed, he would never dream of that hot seat and did not need to dream of it.
He has been following Kevin for a long time, his expertise, professionalism, and experience are enough, but saying he can replace Daniel’s position is overestimating him.
“Boss, please let me go. I don’t have enough capacity.” He twisted his face and quickly refused.
“People hope to get promoted, what’s wrong with you? Shouldn’t you help me?” Kevin frowned, clearly showing dissatisfaction.
“Boss, just let me sit here, I can still help you process the documents.”
Kevin shook his head, helplessly looking at the assistant he had personally chosen. Venn is like a puppy that clings to people.
He wanted to appoint Venn because he believed in his abilities and personality.
With the title of deputy general director, he can help him go to meetings, and meet partners and officials, but the assistant general director cannot chair meetings. Not in all cases can an assistant replace his boss.
Glancing at the clock, seeing that there were still twenty minutes left until the meeting time, Kevin stood up and left the room.
The day Emily came to the corporation to apply for a job, he didn’t know and couldn’t see her appearance during the interview. At this moment, he suddenly wanted to see the face of the girl who looked similar to her.
And when his steps stopped outside the interview room, it was Lisa’s turn to sit down in the chair opposite the three staff in charge of asking questions.
After five minutes, when everyone stopped asking questions, Kevin entered. He had to admit that when he looked at her face to face, this girl looked fifty percent like the person who held his heart, no less.
He once wanted Emily to stay young, full of life, and cheerful like this, but in the end, she also changed according to the laws of time, only his love for her never changed.
“Hello, Chairman.” Three employees simultaneously stood up and bowed to him.
“Hello, Chairman.” Lisa also hurriedly imitated them.
Although Lisa had seen his image in articles, when face to face, she had to admit that on the outside, he was more handsome, masculine, elegant, and charming than in those processed photos.
Although her mother worked as his maid, she had never met him in person even though she had visited that house many times.
Her mother said he did not live there but lived mainly in the presidential suite in the Gold Hotel and his family’s villa.
“Could she pass the interview?” He asked.
“An outstanding candidate.” The leader of the interview group answered.
Kevin nodded with satisfaction then turned and left. Lisa stared blankly at his tall, straight figure.
Previously, when she heard her mother talk about the two heirs of Unicons Group, she wished that after graduating, she would be able to work at this group.
She, like many other normal girls, holds the dream of becoming Cinderella. When her mother had to quit her job at his house, she was very disappointed because she felt like she had lost a link.
She didn’t expect that her mother would be hired by him again and he even agreed to bring her into the Unicons group.
Of course, Lisa did not know that Kevin did not force the interviewer to admit her to the vacant receptionist position.
He just told them that if she didn’t pass the interview, they should arrange for her to do odd jobs in some department so she could gradually accumulate experience.
“Please go to the next room to sign the probationary contract. After three months, you can become an official employee.” One of the three people spoke up, pulling Lisa’s soul floating on cloud nine back to the ground.
“Yes, thank you, brothers and sisters.” Lisa smiled brightly, a smile that was enough to captivate the heart of the person across from her.
At this time, Kevin returned to the office and prepared to enter the meeting. These past few days, he had been trying to suppress his heart, forcing it to be rational and forcing it to forget the past, but Lisa’s appearance once again made him unwilling to lose that girl.
“Venn, send someone to follow Brian, I believe he knows where she is.” He closed the computer and gave an order.
“Oh, yes, boss.”
To be honest, Venn knew sooner or later Kevin would force him to find Emily’s whereabouts.
He didn’t know very well about the thrilling love triangle between the boss, the boss’s younger brother, and the girl, who he didn’t know was because she was unlucky or lucky because she was involved with two dragons of the Unicons group.
However, piecing together the events he saw and heard, he guessed that she was Kevin’s college love and somehow miraculously, they broke up. And when they met again, somehow miraculously, she became Daniel’s fiancee. When Daniel died, somehow miraculously, Kevin wanted to resume his old love with her, but she ran away after selling all her assets and paying off her debt.
If she is in debt to someone, even if he doesn’t ask for help, someone will still look for her, and the chance of finding her will be higher, but she doesn’t owe anyone anything.
If his boss says one word, he must understand ten, and cannot just limit himself to monitoring the deputy general director of GE Corporation.
So, he quickly operated his phone, contacted his friends, asked them to help him hire a few groups of people, and silently searched for Emily.
Venn feels that Kevin is about to become like the presidents in romantic love stories and that he is turning into an assistant who takes care of his boss’s business and love affairs.
When he broke his leg, he lay in bed for several months and had nothing to do in his free time, so he read dog blood romance stories to entertain himself.
He’s worried that his boss will lock Emily up when he finds her. That is illegal. This is real life, if she escapes and sues, both his boss and him will go to jail, no joke.
At the same time, in the north of the city, Emily was intently sewing clothes before Jolie’s satisfied eyes.
Her actions are gentle and leisurely, but her productivity is no less than anyone else’s, even a little faster.
“Newbie? Oh, she sews fast.”
A man’s voice made Emily pause slightly. She raised her head to look, then bent down to continue her work.
Jolie nodded, then told the guy to follow her. Jolie is the daughter of a well-off family. Because she did not agree to an arranged marriage, her parents rejected her and kicked her out of the house.
After two years of starting her own business, she opened a small tailoring shop, but with the silent help of her younger brother Loic, the tailoring shop grew larger and connected to many outlets.
“What did you come to see me for?”
“I have a friend who works at a garment company and wants to find more outsourcing units. Please consider whether you can accept the job. If you cooperate with them, you will always have a job. I plan to discuss with you renting more space, opening a workshop, and recruiting more workers.”
Jolie sighed, looking around at her tailor shop. Her number of employees is now fifteen people and she has no intention of expanding her business any further, she is afraid she won’t be able to handle it.
However, when she thought of the girls’ sad faces because they couldn’t come here to work, she wanted to do as her younger brother said.
She wanted to create more jobs for everyone. Not everyone has the opportunity and she should seize it to give the opportunity to many more people.
“Okay, then please help me find a place.”
“Very good. I’m still afraid that you will refuse. But… why does that girl look so familiar to me? Is she one of your friends that I’ve met before?” Loic said while looking at the short-haired girl sitting a few meters away from him.
“She is the fiancee of the late deputy general director of Unicons Group, Emily. I know but don’t dare to ask anything about her personal life.”
“Ah, no wonder she looks so familiar.”
Loic’s voice lowered, showing sympathy. He didn’t expect her to look so much worse than the photos previously published by the press.
Loic used to date many beautiful girls, but because no one gave him the feeling of love and made him want to protect them, he changed lovers like changing clothes, without thinking about getting married.
If his sister hadn’t revealed Emily’s identity, he would have stopped at just a few questions.
But when he heard that she was once the fiancee of Daniel, a golden bachelor and the college love of the new president of the Unicons group, he suddenly became interested in her.
The second piece of information was that he heard netizens fabricate it after a few photos of Kevin and her together were distributed but were quickly taken down.
