Chapter 48 Worldly Shackles
Recently, Nora's right eyelid had been twitching frequently. Some colleagues joked, "She's going to
make a fortune and be rich." Some of the colleagues said, "Your left eye jumped means you will earn
more money, and your right eye jumped means you will encounter bad luck."
Murphy told her, "You just didn't have a good rest which made you bilious. I think you should be lit."
Nora stared him and said, "You know how to treat an illness? Don't talk nonsense if you don't
understand. Don't worry."
How could a well-educated girl like her believe superstition? Any abnormal sign on her body was
related to health. She knew she should be lit
SHe was busy with her work in the daytime and took care of little Hugh in the evening. Her schedule
was full, maybe because he was too busy to drink water during this period of time, which caused her
fever.
If there was a problem with her physical function, she had to find a solution. Every day, she would drink
several glasses of water. The doctor once said, "Water is the best medicine"
He secretly went to the pharmacy to get some medicine for her and put it on her table. She was very
grateful to him. In a strange city, someone who was cared about her silently.
Although they couldn't be together, they could get along with each other day and night, which was also
the God's compensation for themselves.
The chief examiner of the Sea Rise Group called Grace and said, "Congratulations on your admission.
You can go to the human resources department at eight o'clock tomorrow."
Grace was so excited that she couldn't say a word. She was really admitted by the Se Rise Group.
While she was happy, she didn't forget her good friend, Nora. She wanted to tell her the good news as
soon as possible.
"I know you're the best," said Nora cheerfully.
'What a great position it is! Now it belongs to me!' she thought. This was what she had been dreaming
of for a long time.
She was in a good mood.
After dressing up, she went to work. It was the first day that he had to leave a good impression on her
colleagues.
She went to the human resources department of the company to check in. After a series of complicated
signatures and seals, she finally completed her job list. She could just take it to work.
As she walked, she inquired the person beside her. The huge company could really make her confused
because she couldn't find where she office was. She finally found a room and checked the number on
the job list.
She straightened her clothes, opened the mirror and looked at her hair. Everything was fine. Then she
knocked on the door and heard a voice, "Come in, please."
There was such a coincidence in the world. The man sitting at the desk in front of her was Hal. Would
she be his assistant in the future? Was he her boss?
Hal looked at Grace and said, "The chief examiner agreed to recruit a perfect senior assistant. It turns
out to be you. What a coincidence!"
Grace felt embarrassed, "I don't know you are my boss. No one told me."
Hal said to Grace, "They said that your discerning ability is very strong, beyond their imagination. It
depends on your performance in the future."
Then, Hal made a phone call and a beautiful woman came in. She was as beautiful as a fairy.
Hal said to the beautiful woman, "secretary, this is Grace, my assistant. Please lead her to get familiar
with the working environment and tell her about her future work."
It turned out that this beautiful lady was Hal's secretary, secretary Qin. They would be colleagues from
now on.
secretary Qin smiled and said, "Okay, Mr. Hal. I see. Don't worry."
The new environment, the new job and everything were new for Grace.
Hal knew the relationship between Grace and Nora. He left her with him for some personal reasons, so
that he could know what happened to Nora as soon as possible.
Susie and Howard were anxiously waiting for Hal to come back for lunch. They had agreed last night
that they would not see him until noon.
Howard said angrily, "If he doesn't go home now, maybe he goes to meet that woman again."
Since their daughter, Jasmine, spilled the beans last time, they knew that Hal had another woman they
didn't know. This time, Hal did a very good job of keeping the secret.
They always wanted to get something from their daughter, but every time they mentioned it, Jasmine
immediately changed the topic and kept silent.
Jasmine had been against the marriage of family business. She didn't want her future happiness to be
ruined by this kind of relationship, so she always supported her brother.
Jasmine investigated of Nora and met her on her birthday. She felt that Nora was really good, but
Jasmine didn't know that Nora had become a mother.
Might come true the old saying: 'Aged ginger is more pungent.'
Since they couldn't wait for Hal to come back, Susie and Howard came up with an idea. They wanted
to meet that woman. They wanted to see what kind of beauty she was and why she attracted Hal so
much.
After hearing the suggestion of Susie, Howard thought it was a good idea. They agreed at once. Then
Howard decided to call his son.
After the phone was connected, Hal said to his father, "I'm busy now. I can't go back to have dinner
with you. I'll go back after I finish my work."
Howard said, "Go home early tonight. I have something important to tell you. Don't come back too late."
Then he hung up the phone.
Hal was a filial child. He remembered his father's words that he would go home to have dinner with his
parents after work.
All parents in the world loved their children and always worried that their children would be hurt.
However, children would grow up and have their own thoughts and dreams.
Parents had experienced much more things than children, but when children went to the society, they
had to learn to be responsible and bear.
No matter rich or poor, it was everyone's right to pursue perfect and free love. Even parents had no
right to deprive children of their dream of happiness.
Children from ordinary families could pursue their own happiness, but a family like Howard couldn't.
Their children didn't belong to themselves, but to the whole family.
There were many marriages that were forced by their parents. In the eyes of the outside world, they
were happy. In fact, otherwise, their marriage was for others to see. Only they knew clearly whether
they were happy or not.
At first, a couple that was brave enough to break through the common sense of the family was not
allowed by the family. It was regarded as unfilially behavior and despised by the world.
However, in the end, they would often overcome many difficulties, share weal and woe, achieve the
best in marriage and career, and gain recognition from their families.
Hal was such a man. He wanted to be with the woman he liked without being bound by his family. He
wanted to try his best to get the support and approval of his family.This text is property of Nô/velD/rama.Org.
