Sheldon did not expect to see Yesseca.
Hadn't this woman already followed Tremaine back to Quartley Palace? Why did Tremaine make more arrangements? He figured maybe Yesecca had been chased out.
True, even a fierce woman like her could be asked to leave Quartley Palace by Tremaine.
Sheldon said in a courteous and distant tone, "Miss Cowell, I have been informed by President Quartley that I should make arrangements for your job and accommodation. Please cwith me," Yesseca did not know what to say.
She knew Sheldon had misunderstood.
She said, "It's not me, it's my..." Yesseca turned around. Where had Preslie gone? Finally, she found Preslie in the car and pulled her to face Sheldon. "This is my good friend, Preslie Fernandez." Sheldon was speechless.
Preslie looked somewhat familiar to him. Then, it hit him.
How could it be her! Sheldon was stunned.
Preslie's face flushed bright red when she realised that Sheldon was staring at her.
She recognized Sheldon the moment she saw him. She wanted to hide. Even though there was nothing between them, when Preslie noticed him, she still felt like escaping.
She went to hide in the car, but she did not expect Yesseca to pull her out.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtSheldon returned to normal after a brief moment of shock.
He cleared his throat and asked, "Miss, could you tellyour name?" Upon hearing Sheldon's question, Preslie felt a chill down her spine. What! How could he not know her name? She had told him her nthat time, when she was attacked in Nashaland! She clearly remembered Sheldon's name.
Why didn't he remember her? A bitter feeling arose in Preslie's heart.
That's right. It was normal for a man to forget her name. Although she had told Sheldon before, who would care what her nwas? She was not a beauty and she was rather plump. Why would he remember her? Preslie's mouth moved.
She wanted to tell him her name, but she couldn't.
She felt sad. Even if she told him, he might not remember.
Since that was the case, what was the point? Yesseca replied, "Her nis Preslie Fernandez. She's a really good friend of mine!" Yesseca especially emphasized the last sentence.
Sheldon's gaze shifted.
Maybe the reason why Tremaine was helping this woman with a job and accommodation was because of Yesseca.
Yesseca was really important to him! Sheldon becmore polite. "Miss Fernandez, please get in the car with me." Preslie did not move.
She looked at Yesseca with a pitiful look in her eyes.
Yesseca took Preslie's hand in hers. "Okay, I'll accompany you." Preslie nodded vigorously.
With Yesseca by her side, she wasn't as flustered or helpless.
The car drove all the way to the gates of the Shiryu Palace.
Sheldon had arranged for Preslie to be a normal clerk of the lowest rank in one of the government departments. After all, Tremaine only asked Sheldon to find a job for her. He did not tell him about her educational background, so Sheldon had to find an easy job for her.
belongs Although it was just a civilian job, it was a job tons of people sought after. Many bright university graduates wanted to work there.
Sheldon brought Preslie to the office and gave her a card. "I won't be accompanying you tomorrow. When you go to the president's office, you need to clock in by using this card. Cat 9 o'clock. Someone will let you in." Preslie just stood there and gulped.
She knew someone would arrange a job for her, but she never expected it to be such a good job! She would be working at the President's office! Oh my God, what did this mean? This was a job desired by many. Preslie felt as though she had a better chance of winning the lottery than landing this job. However, she had earned it easily.
Her legs were trembling. She felt like she couldn't stand straight.
She had always been an ordinary citizen, but now she would be working at the president's office...
Preslie felt dizzy. She even forgot to take the card Sheldon was handing over to her.
Sheldon's hand was frozen in mid-air.
Sheldon looked at Preslie, who was still gulping nervously.
He didn't know what was wrong with her.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmHe furrowed his brows.
Sure enough, birds of a feather flock together.
Yesseca looked ditzy, but this friend of hers looked even ditzier. She looked like she was slow-witted. Sheldon wanted to hand the card to Yesseca so that she could pass it to Přeslie, but Yessca was also staring at it. This was, after all, Yesseca's first visit to the president's office. Such a majestic place rendered Yesseca speechless. Sheldon cleared his throat and said, "Miss Fernandez, please take the card. Otherwise, you won't be able to cin tomorrow..
Preslie finally cto her senses.
"Right, the access card." She reached out her hand in a flurry.
Sheldon noticed her fingers shaking, and his brows furrowed together into an even tighter knot.
At that moment, he suddenly felt that a simple even if he had only arranged a simple civilian job for this woman, it was also a wrong decision. Was she smart enough to handle it? After leaving the president's office, Sheldon took Preslie to her new residence.
It was a small neighborhood near the president's office. It had good security, so Preslie didn't have much to worry about.
There were 3 bedrooms and 2 living rooms. For Preslie, this was huge.
Preslie looked around and said, "This is for me? It's too big," This kind of house was more suited for a family.
Sheldon did not answer.
He felt like he and Preslie were not
on the swavelength. He didn't Want man want to answer, so he said in a polite O and distant manner "Miss Fernandez, this is where you will live. If you require any assistance do letknow," Preslie shook her head desperately. "Oh no, no it's fine!"
