Chapter 302


    I asked with a frown, "You didn''t list any vacancy for the project department here... Can you put me in


    the project department? It doesn''t matter even if I start from the bottom."


    Irvin nodded, "Okay, the Project Director for thepany had just quitted not long ago because


    something came up at home. You can take the job."


    Taken aback by his prompt reply, I couldn''t help but ask, "Why didn''t you make the decision so hastily?


    Aren''t you afraid that I''m not qualified enough? Won''t you be afraid that I''ll ruin yourpany?"


    He glimpsed at me and smiled, "Will you?"


    The corner of my lips lifted, "It''s hard to tell." After all, I hadn''t worked for almost a year.


    At the crossroads with a red light, he put his elbow on the steering wheel, and looked at me with his


    head resting on his hand, "You were the vice director for the Project Department of the Roberts Group,


    weren''t you? If you can easily manage your work as the vice director at such aplex project


    department, managing the project department in Granger Group should be a piece of cake for you."


    I didn''t know what to think about his blind trust. Irvin was also too humble about hispany. The


    Granger Group was a huge and internationalpany. Although the Roberts Group was nearly the


    same in size, it was stillcking in certain areas.


    The traffic downtown was bad as usual. As Irvin drove, he gave me a rough ount of the


    development of the Granger Group. He also told me about some of thepany''s recent projects and


    events, which gave me a rough idea of what was going on.


    Since Yohannes wasn''t in good health, Irvin was basically the one who managed the entirepany.


    Sometimes, he would also face some problems that he couldn''t solve. He wanted me to work for him in


    thepany because it benefited him.


    He needed someone he trusted as his aides.


    The car drove straight into Central Park Residence in the city center. Irvin pulled up in front of a


    residential building.


    Looking around at the surroundings, I was surprised. This was the heart of the city, and the housing


    price was impressively high. The middle sses could hardly afford a house in this area.


    Seeing that I was still in bewilderment, Irvin smiled, "I''ll take you in and let you have a look at your


    house first. If you think you need anything, we''ll go and buy itter."


    I nced at the time and asked, "Aren''t you going to work today?"


    He grinned, "Don''t you remember? Today''s a holiday!"


    Embarrassed, Iughed with him weakly.


    After entering the elevator in the building, Irvin said, "Let''s see what you need at home, and we can buy


    it at the nearby supermarketter. And since we''re not far away from thepany, I''ll bring you to the


    I nodded and felt that I was probably the one who needed to worry the least when going to work at a


    new job. The boss had already set up everything.


    The house Irvin had picked for me was on the tenth floor. It wasn''t too high, and it wasn''t toorge. It


    was about 1600 square feet, and it was modern andfortably furnished. It was a weing change


    from the vi.


    Looking at the decorations of the apartment, I couldn''t help but ask Irvin, "The rent here should be


    pricey, right? I''m guessing it''s more than a hundred thousand dors. Especially that we''re in Jarold


    City, where the usablend was already so sacred."

    Irvin raised his brows, "Are you worried about the rent?"


    I shook my head and smiled, "I''m just curious about what real estate investors usually think. You


    bought a house and decorated it so nicely, but you won''t rent it out or even live in it. It''s such a waste!"


    Suddenly, I thought of Hendrix. He also liked to invest in properties like this. Thinking of him, I could


    feel the tears gathering in my eyes. I lowered my head to recollect myposure.


    Irvin didn''t notice my abnormality. He smiled and replied, "But you''re staying here now, aren''t you? It''s


    never a waste."


    I still couldn''t understand his logic, but I didn''t say anything. I began to walk around the house, and I


    didn''t think there was anything I needed to add to the house until I came to the kitchen. There was


    nothing much in the kitchen. Irvin probably thought that I didn''t know how to cook, so he didn''t make


    much effort in furnishing it.


    "Well, do you need anything else?" Irvin asked whileing to grab my hand to register my fingerprints


    into the house security system.


    I nodded and said, "Since you''re not doing anything tonight, why don''t we make dinner at home? I’ll call


    Monique and Ian to invite them toe overter. You know, to catch up with them. I''ve been out of


    touch with the world when I was away."
