Chapter 1020


    Even if everybody had a rotten attitude, there would b e different degrees of rottenness.


    Jordan looked at me and asked with his brows raised. "Where do you n to stay?”


    I looked at him and felt a little embarrassed.


    I had discarded almost all of my things before going abroad.


    Being alone and having almost nothing, it was truly quite difficult to survive in this unfamiliar city.


    After pondering for a long time, I asked Jordan, "Is yourpany hiring, Mr. Fredericks?"


    I needed to work and earn some money first before I could return to Riverbank City.


    All rights ? N?velDrama.Org.


    It was not that I could not borrow money from Jordan but I was worried that the bad guys would look


    for me i n Riverbank when they learned that I had run away. Hence, it was better for me not to go


    back for the time being just to be safe.


    Jordan smiled slightly. "We are, but we only have a vacancy for the president’s secretary at the


    moment. It includes meals, amodation, and insurance. But the only condition is that you''ll need


    to be on call at all times."


    I was stunned. "How much is the monthly sry?" "7,000.”


    In a city like Hommiton, having a job that included meals, amodation, and insurance was more


    than enough.


    I nodded. "Can I start today, then?"


    I would have a ce to stay if I started today. I would b e too afraid to stay in a hotel alone in this


    unfamiliar environment, especially after what I had just experienced.


    Jordan nodded. "Of course, you can."


    As soon as he said that, a Rolls-Royce pulled up in front of us.


    The driver came out and opened the door to the backseat. Jordan said softly, "Get in."


    After getting into the car with him, I leaned back in m y seat and closed my eyes.


    I was tired after being on the ne for more than ten hours.


    When the car drove to a vi by the sea, I was dumbfounded. "Is this the staff dormitory, Mr.


    Fredericks?"


    Jordanughed. "You can consider it as a staff dormitory too."


    What?


    After entering the vi, Jordan went to work before I could say anything.


    The butler led me to my room on the second floor. I walked to the window and opened it. Looking at


    the beautiful scenery outside, I felt instantly rxed.


    When I returned to this familiarnd, I immediately felt at home. That put my heart at rest.


    Humans could not travel far and would eventually return to their roots. No matter how far one went,


    one would eventually have to return to thend where they belonged.


    I slept better than ever tonight, and it was a dreamless night up until dawn.


    I was awakened by a knock on the door the next morning. I got up and yawned, taking a few


    seconds to react before getting out of bed to open the door.


    My mind failed to react for a second when I saw the man in ck pajamas at the door.


    "Morning," the man ndly said.


    I smiled. "Good morning, Mr. Fredericks."


    The man raised his eyebrows and lowered his head to check his wristwatch. "You''ll begin work


    today and will stay here from now on. We don''t have a nanny for now, so I’ll need you to take over


    breakfast duties."


    He continued after a pause, "Work starts at nine, and it''s seven now. I suggest going downstairs to


    make breakfast now so you won''t bete.”


    The man turned around and left after saying those words.


    I was confused for a fleeting moment before quickly going back into the room to get changed. After


    a quick washing up, I went downstairs and entered the kitchen.


    Fortunately, there were all kinds of things in the fridge, so I would not have to think of what to make.


    After having breakfast, I was in a bit of a sticky situation.


    Seeing Jordan grabbing his car keys and getting ready to go out, I gathered the courage to ask,


    "Can you give me a ride, Mr. Fredericks?”
