Chapter 32 Got A Job
An hour later, they put their dished on the table.
Elizabeth made stir-fried beef with coriander, while Hugo made a fish.
"It is called fish soup!" Hugo raised mouth corners lightly.
Elizabeth looked at Hugo in surprise and took her dish to in the front of her.
"We change." Hugo put his own dish to Elizabeth.
Then he took away Elizabeth's dish and picked up his chopsticks.
"Delicious!" Hugo praised with a thumbs-up.
Elizabeth pursed her lips, picked up the chopsticks and took a piece of fish into her mouth. © 2024 Nôv/el/Dram/a.Org.
She rolled her eyes, chewed slowly and looked up at Hugo in disbelief.
"What's the matter? Don't like it?" Asked Hugo worriedly.
Elizabeth shook her head, “No...You cook like a chef in a hotel. Your cooking is...Great!"
She was just a little ashamed of herself. He was a man but he cooked better food than her, a woman who cooked every day.
"Thank you for your praise!" laughed Hugo in a good humor.
"Do you often cook?" Elizabeth asked.
A slight shrug of shoulders in Hugo showed that he seldom cooked.
“It's a pity you're not a cook!” Elizabeth said jokingly.
Hugo smiled and replied, "I just do it as a hobby."
Cooking as a hobby?!
No wonder...
Elizabeth understood she cooked just to fill the stomach.
And Hugo cooked because of personal interests.
They were different.
"I'm not highly educated. I don't have your deep cultural interests..." Elizabeth bowed her head in blushing, and muttered softly.
Hugo thought he had made a mistake, and explained, "I didn't mean that... I just wanted to... be able to cook my wife and children their favorite dishes every day..."
As soon as his words fell, Elizabeth raised her head with sudden heartsick.
When they looked at each other, the atmosphere around was a little ambiguous.
Elizabeth then picked up the bowl and put rice into her mouth.
Seeing her shy appearance, Hugo could not help smiling.
After lunch, Elizabeth was ready to leave. "Thank you for your warm hospitality, I should go home. My brother might be worried about me!"
"Take the elevator straight to the eighth floor and it is your brother's house." Hugo said kindly.
Elizabeth was stunned and later said, “Here is..."
"Yes, I live in the same apartment building as your brother!" A smile showed on Hugo’s face.
Beam smiled shyly, “What a coincidence!"
"I was going to take you back to your brother's house last night, but if I did, you'd have to sleep on the couch. I didn't want you to sleep on the couch, so I had to carry you home. I hope you don't mind." Hugo explained in a polite way.
Elizabeth was overjoyed at that. She didn't mind of course. She was glad about that.
There was no denying that she was very fond of Hugo.
“Anyway, thank you very much for your attention! I am leaving now!"
"I'll send you to the elevator!"
"No, no! I'll just go down by myself!"
In the face of the man she had a good impression on, Elizabeth was at a loss and had to flee in embarrassment.
Looking at the back of Elizabeth, Hugo could not help but smile. After he turned into the room, he made a call to Ben, his assistant.
"Mr. Hugo?" Ben asked over the phone.
"Ben, tell the personnel department, if there is a girl named Elizabeth Lawrence to apply for the job. As for internship salary... let the personnel department ask her how much she wants. No matter how much she wants, the personnel department must agree."
"Yes, Mr. Hugo."
"And, does our company have a policy against relationships between employees?"
"Yes!"
"Is there a policy to forbid an employee to fall in love with the boss?"
“No, no!”
“Good!” Hugo showed a smile.
Ben was confused. What was the matter, why did Mr. Hugo ask such a question?
"Mr. Hugo, is there anything else you want me to do?" Ben asked.
Hugo hung up the phone since there was not anything else.
Elizabeth knocked the door and Reeva opened the door.
Reeva looked at Elizabeth, and could not help but breathe a sigh of relief.
"Reeva."
"You are back! Since you have a boyfriend in BJ City, why don't you tell me and your brother?" said Reeva.
Elizabeth froze for a moment and then suddenly remembered what Hugo had said to her at first. Then she understood her "boyfriend" Reeva was talking about.
Elizabeth wanted to explain to Reeva that Hugo was not her boyfriend. But suddenly she felt it was not appropriate.
After deliberation, Elizabeth chose to be silent.
"By the way, here's the money for your singing yesterday, and here's your tip!"
After talking about Elizabeth, Reeva turned into the house and then came out with a thousand yuan in her hand.
As she spoke, she shoved foam into Elizabeth's hand.
Elizabeth was shocked to seeing the one thousand yuan, which she had earned in Ymay Club for a night!
Reeva found that Elizabeth was surprised and said, “It is not much! There used to be female singers sleeping with men! That makes more money!"
Hearing that, Elizabeth swallowed her saliva.
No wonder Hugo said it was not suitable for her to sing in Ymay Club.
"Will you go there tonight?" Reeva asked.
Elizabeth shook her head.
Reeva showed smile, “Does your boyfriend not allow?"
"I've got a job!" In order to let Reeva stop talking about Hugo, Elizabeth changed the topic.
"So soon?" Reeva felt incredulous.
When Reeva came to BJ City, if it were not for relying on Anthony, she would have given up and obediently returned home.
Elizabeth nodded with a smile.
She did not want to talk about Hugo, but Reeva was interested in her "boyfriend".
