“This…” J looked at Mark. “Mr. Pattinson, what’s going on?”
Mark frowned. “Where is she now?”
“The human resources department!”
“Ask her to come over!”
Although J did not know what was going on, he rarely saw Mark show such an expression. Thus, he immediately nodded and went to call Amanda.
Amanda had just done what Lyla said, so she did not expect that she would be called to Mark’s office.
The moment she saw Mark, she could not help but admit that he was indeed good-looking.
Moreover, his handsomeness was beyond this world.
Amanda looked at Mark and thought that he did match Lyla really well. However, she felt angry the moment she remembered what Mark had done. She did not agree with what he had done. Sure enough, those who were handsome were not dependable.
“What’s your name?”
“Amanda Bowen!” Amanda said indifferently. She was the type of person that would display all of her thoughts on her face. She really could not act politely with Mark.
Mark did not mind. He then said with a calm expression. “Ms. Bowen, did you draw this design?”
Amanda took a glance at it and nodded. “Yes!”
Mark frowned, took a glance at J, and picked up the bracelet from his table. “Then have you seen this before?”
Once Amanda saw the bracelet Mark was holding, her eyes widened.
This was the bracelet she gave to Lyla, right? How could it be here?
“Ms. Bowen, are you not going to explain?”
“Explain about what?”
“Your design drawing. How did this bracelet appear in my house?” Mark asked.
“This…”
Amanda did not know how to answer. She tried to quickly think of a solution. At the moment, it seemed like Lyla had gone home. Otherwise, the bracelet would not be at Mark’s house.
Amanda was a little worried. How should she continue with this lie? Or should she just tell him the truth?
However, she did not dare to tell Mark the truth without Lyla’s permission.
Amanda just stood there anxiously, trying to think of a way.
Mark observed her as his eyes narrowed.
“Did my dad ask you to come over?”
Upon hearing this, Amanda looked up at him in confusion. “Who’s your dad?’
Mark, “...”
Mark’s deep eyes looked at her, not knowing whether she was telling the truth or just pretending. He then simply said, “I don't care who you are or whether you were sent by my dad, but let me tell you, you better get rid of that thought as soon as possible!”
Amanda blinked her eyes. What nonsense was he talking about?’
She did not understand him.
At this moment, Mark picked up her documents and her design drawings.
“Sorry, but you’re not hired!”
Upon hearing this, J frowned. “Mr. Pattinson…”
Amanda asked directly, “Why?”
“You should be very clear that anyone who comes to the company with any motives will not be accepted!” Mark said firmly.
“You know, aren’t you being a narcissist? Yes, you’re indeed handsome, but you’re a father of two children no matter what you say. Who’ll try to get close to you with a motive?” Amanda could not help but complain.
Amanda already had an awful impression of Mark because of the magazine incident. However, his behavior was still terrible at that moment. Therefore, no matter how good-looking Mark was, he was nothing more than that in Amanda’s heart.
Upon hearing her words, Mark smiled coldly from the corner of his lips. “It seems like you’ve looked into my details well. If you already know about it, then why bother?”
“I…” Amanda realized that she was speechless against him.
She pressed her lips together and looked at Mark. She then walked over casually and directly took away the documents on the table. “Alright, it’s fine if you don’t want to hire me. It’s not like I have nowhere to go except your company. Let me tell you, capable people are welcomed everywhere!”
Amanda forced a smile at Mark as she finished speaking. She was about to leave with her documents.
However, Mark’s expression darkened at this moment.
What Amanda said seemed to be familiar.
If Mark remembered correctly, when Lyla first joined the company, they also fought against each other because of some misunderstandings. Lyla had also said what Amanda just said...
After Amanda walked out a few steps, she suddenly remembered something and looked back at Mark. “Also, let me say a little bit more, I won’t bother with a man like you!” Amanda said. She then snorted as she was about to leave.
“Wait!”
Mark spoke suddenly.
Amanda was taken aback and looked at him from the corner of her eyes. “What is it?”
She suddenly thought about what Lyla said. Would he actually throw her out?
Mark sat on the chair and frowned. He then looked up at her. “You’re hired!”
Huh?
The situation changed so quickly that Amanda could not keep up with it. What was happening?
“What do you mean?” Amanda looked at him and asked.
“You wanted to work at our company, right? Now you’re hired!”
“But didn’t you say just now…”
“That was the past!”
Amanda, “...”
This man was changing his mind too quickly.
J just smiled. In his opinion, everything was fine as long as it benefited the company.
He looked at Amanda and admired her in his heart. After all, no one dared to talk to Mr. Pattinson like that for a long time.
“In that case, I’ll guide you around so you can familiarize yourself with the surroundings.”
“But…”
“Come on, let’s go!”
Amanda still wanted to say something, but J persuaded her and brought her out.
“I hope that you’ll work well here. If I find out that you have any ulterior motives, I’ll fire you without any hesitation!”
“You --”
“Go, go, go!”
……
Meanwhile, outside the office.
Amanda’s gaze fell onto J, which was filled with suspicion.
“Why are you staring at me like that?”
“Why did you try to lie to her?”
“This… Uh, you won’t understand!”
“You’re deliberately trying to stop them from meeting each other?” Amanda asked.
“You’re right!”
“You have a crush on her?” Amanda took a guess.
“What nonsense are you talking about?!”
“What else can it be? If not for that, why would you want to lie to her?”
“Uh, about this… You shouldn’t ask too much! Come on, let’s go. I’ll bring you to the design department!” J said as he dragged Amanda away.
Just as Lyla said.
Lily was the person that treated Lyla the best in that office. She was also a person that was worth knowing.
Therefore, Amanda got to know Lily on her first day there.
Moreover, they got to know each other better quite naturally.
“Here, your caramel coffee!” Amanda said as she held two cups of coffee.
Lily was taken aback for a moment. “You, how did you know that I like caramel coffee?”
Uh…
Did she act too obviously? Amanda did not think much about it before.
“Uh, I just guessed it because I also like drinking caramel ones. So I thought that you might like it too!” Amanda just came up with an excuse.
Lily did not think much about it. She just smiled and nodded. “Thanks!”
“Don’t sweat it!” Amanda said with a smile.
At this moment, Lily looked at the design drawings on Amanda’s table and picked them up. “You drew these?”
Amanda nodded. “Yeah!”
Lily admired them piece by piece. “Not bad! You’re still young, but you seem to be talented!”
To Amanda, this type of praise was a kind of recognition towards her. After all, she had been discouraged for so long. She could finally see a glimmer of light at that moment. Amanda felt a sense of accomplishment that she never had before.
Just as Amanda was secretly being delighted, Lily turned to the last page. Lily frowned when she saw that design drawing.
“This…”
Upon seeing that Lily had a weird expression, Amanda leaned over and asked with a smile, “What is it?”
“You also drew this?”
Amanda leaned closer. Once she saw the design drawing in Lily’s hands, she was stunned. That design drawing was not drawn by her. It was done by Lyla.
It was probably mixed in and brought over when they were tidying up just now.
Amanda bit her lips. She knew that Lyla and Lily had a good relationship, so maybe Lily had seen this design drawing before? Otherwise, why would she have such a big reaction?
“This…” Amanda suddenly did not know how to explain.
Lily looked at Amanda with her eyes filled with curiosity.
“No, this is my…” Amanda realized that she could not wrap her head around it when there were so many sudden questions and troubles.
