Even if he didn’t do well, no one would say anything. Ensuring his own livelihood and his daughter’s health, he had noints.
Melissa immediately became unhappy when she heard this. “I also studied abroad and came back. Instead of working elsewhere, why not let me learn something by following Patrick?”
Her father fell into deep thought. Melissa kept clinging to his arm, coaxing him.
After all, she was his only daughter, and naturally, he didn’t want to see her unhappy. Eventually, he reluctantly agreed.
The next day, Issac Pansy returned to thepany and went straight to Patrick’s office to discuss his daughter’s job.
“Knock, knock, knock!”
Issac was very polite, which was one of the reasons Patrick admired him.
“Come in.”
Issac hesitated, feeling embarrassed as he spoke. “Your cousin has been back for a while now, and it wouldn’t be a bad idea to find her a job in our family’spany. It would keep her out of trouble.”
This was the first time Issac had sought help from Patrick in a long time. After all, he didn’t have much to ask of Patrick.
Patrick sighed and nced at Issac. “I understand your intentions, and I know she’s your only daughter. However, her field of study doesn’t match ourpany’s business but is more rted to Jane’spany. So instead of having her work in an unfamiliar field, it’s better to let her work in her own area of expertise.”
Hearing this, Issac found it reasonable. However, since he and Jane didn’t have much interaction, it might be inappropriate to directly send her to Jane’spany.
“I’ll need your help with this,” Issac appealed to Patrick once again.
“Don’t worry, I’ll call her right away,” Patrick responded readily, leaving Issac feeling satisfied as he left.
Patrick immediately called Jane.
“What did you say? You want Melissa to intern at mypany? Are you sure she’ll agree to this?” Jane wasn’t opposed to the idea per se; she was just concerned that Melissa’s original intention was to work with Patrick. If she came to Jane’spany instead, who knows what trouble might arise.
“After all, men and women are different. Can you trust her in ourpany?” Patrick’s words made Jane burst intoughter. Without much ado, she agreed.
Under the pretext of bringing food to her father, Melissa arrived at thepany. She happened to run into Patricking out of the elevator and eagerly approached him.
“Patrick, can I work at thepany?”
Patrick nced at her lightly and patted her shoulder. “I’ve already spoken to your father. You’ll be working at Jane’spany. You can report there today. She’s waiting for you at the office.”
Melissa’s heart sank upon hearing this. She was about to argue with him, but Patrick left without giving her a chance to exin.
Her carefully thought-out n had once again fallen apart.
In frustration, she went to her father’s office to vent her anger.
“Didn’t you say I could work at thepany? Why am I going to Jane’s ce now? Jane already dislikes me, and now that I’ll be under her nose, she’ll like me even less.”
Seeing her daughter’s sulking appearance, Issac could only try to calm her down, speaking softly and gently.
“What nonsense are you talking about? Both of thesepanies belong to our family, and Jane is part of our family. Moreover, finding a job in a field you like is a rare opportunity. Others can’t even beg for it.”Text ? by N0ve/lDrama.Org.
Melissa carefully calcted in her mind. Originally, she had hoped to work in the samepany as Patrick to have more contact with him. But now, herst bit of hope had been shattered. There wasn’t even a chance to turn back. Wasn’t this pushing her into the fire?
“Anyway, I won’t go to herpany. I won’t subject myself to her whims.”
Thinking of Jane’s sour face, Melissa felt a strong aversion. She couldn’t even imagine interacting with her together.
“My dear daughter, it’s not your turn to negotiate yet. Having a job is already quite difficult.” Seeing his daughter aiming for unreachable goals made him angry.
“Do you think I’m sopetent in thispany? It’s all thanks to your grandfather’s influence. Otherwise, with Patrick’s personality, he would have kicked me out long ago. You must understand this!”
Issac was resentful. He had always treated his daughter with great care, fearing that something might happen in the future. So he had always indulged her. He had let bygones be bygones about what had happened before. But now, they had to behave and toe the line.
Melissa looked at her father, whose face had aged, with many gray hairs on his temples, feeling heartbroken. “Dad, I’ll go.”
Then, Melissa went to Jane’spany downstairs.
Jane had already instructed the supervisor to wait for her downstairs.
When the supervisor saw Melissa, she hurried over. “You must be Miss Pansy. I’m here on behalf of Ms. North.”
Melissa nodded arrogantly. “Where’s Jane?” She didn’t show an ounce of politeness, which made the supervisor feel disappointed.
“Ms. North is in a meeting upstairs. She asked me to show you around thepany first.” The supervisor knew who Melissa was and her identity, so she didn’t dare to neglect her.
“I just want to see Jane now. I don’t want to listen to anyone else.” With that, Melissa took Jane’s private elevator directly to the top floor.
The supervisor followed dumbfoundedly, feeling chilled. How could this woman be so disrespectful? Jane wasn’t someone to be trifled with. Even Patrick respected her, but she was acting so presumptuously.
Meanwhile, Jane was discussing the final item of work.
“After April and the otherse back, we can proceed with the follow-up work. They should be back soon, so we won’t have to wait too long.”
Just as Jane finished delegating tasks, someone barged in without warning, causing her expression to change instantly. Everyone raised their heads, curious to see who it was.
The supervisor hurriedly exined from behind, “Ms. North, I’m sorry, I couldn’t stop her. I’m sorry.”
