When the street lights turned on, Emily left the sewing machine, went into the bathroom, and prepared to go to the pub.This afternoon, she calculated the amount of money she would save after a year of working. She plans to use that money to open a tailor shop specializing in fashionable clothes for men and women.Of course, that will also be the place to launch her designs, limited in quantity.After closing the door, she picked up her bag and ran quickly to the black car that was waiting.Kurt lowered the windshield and winked, signaling the person outside to come in quickly.“Living here is extremely beneficial, I don't have to spend money on meals and I don't have to spend money on taxis.” She took a deep breath and spoke up, breaking the quiet atmosphere in the car.“So you must quickly get rich. If you're still poor at the end of the year, it's your fault.”Emily smiled at Kurt's joke. Although he was joking, his face was no different from that of a criminal police officer, very
Because the car from the south side of the city takes two hours to get here, everyone had to wait.Jennifer glared at the man who was helping Emily disinfect and bandage the wound caused by the glass fragment.Jennifer didn't understand what it was about that girl that attracted men, so wherever she went, men took care of her, even when she had nothing left in her hands.“Are you in a lot of pain?” Kurt asked after bandaging Emily's wound.“No.” She shook her head.“Don't cry, I'm here, I will get justice for you.” He pulled out a handkerchief, gave it to her, and gently comforted her.He knew she wasn't crying because of pain but because of self-pity. Who wouldn't be sad when they fall into this situation?If no one talks about it, she's okay, but once someone intentionally brings up the past, how can she not be hurt?The clock hands kept turning and less than two hours later, Brian's limited edition car stopped in front of the police station.He was working overtime at the company w
After a good night's sleep, Emily woke up and quickly brushed her teeth, washed her face, had breakfast, and sat at the sewing machine.Her sewing speed is very fast, but thread cutting takes her a lot of time. She wished someone would help her cut the threads.Although Kurt invited her to cooperate in making money, that was a matter of the future, and for now, she had to work hard and do this job well.“Good morning, have you had breakfast yet?” Kurt looked at her through the window, held up two portions of food, and asked.“Oh, I already ate.”“You wake up so early, you're such a hard-working bee.”“The door is not locked.”He nodded, pushed open the door, entered the small room, placed a portion of food on the kitchen counter, then sat on the floor and ate the rest.Emily glanced at the man, smiled slightly, and continued working. Kurt always made her feel like he was family, and friendly and made her feel secure when she was with him.Seeing that she stopped sewing and focused on
Brian had to admit that Emily was very good at saying things to make others feel less guilty.Who would have thought that in just one day, he would discover that he had two younger sisters? Compared to Jennifer, he felt that Emily was more similar to him.It was funny because he had often told himself that his and her faces were similar because they were destined to be husband and wife.“Emily, don't work here anymore, go back to my company, I guarantee Jennifer won't dare to cause trouble for you.” Brian spoke up.“No, I like doing this job.” She shook her head, continuing to wear another pair of nylon gloves to tear up the dried squid.“The environment here is too complicated. And if you don't like working at GE Corporation, I can help you open a fashion store or a large tailor shop. You like fashion design, right?”“Brian...” She stopped, looking straight at his expectant face.“Yes, you say it, I'm listening.”She exhaled and told him that the working environment here was very goo
When night fell, as usual, exactly at seven o'clock, Emily was at the pub. Today, she took a taxi because Kurt had boarded a plane since morning. After changing into her uniform, she quickly started working. A day out with Brian made her feel very comfortable but her legs were a bit tired. “Hello, deputy manager.” She bowed her head when she saw the deputy manager passing by. “Hello, ah, Emily, VIP room number three has just been booked by a customer. Go in there and turn on the air conditioning first. Check if the table or sofa is skewed and fix it. I heard there are a lot of people in their group, about a dozen people.” “Yes.” Fast as a squirrel, Emily ran to VIP room number three and pressed the remote, turning on the air conditioner. Then she adjusted the sofas neatly, checked whether the bathroom was clean or not, and then turned on the karaoke system but kept it on silent mode. “Alright. There are so many people coming, they will probably order a lot of food and wine.” She
After examining, sewing, and bandaging Emily's wound, the doctor called Kevin in and told him and the nurse to take her to the hospital room for further observation because the wound was quite deep so he was afraid she would have a fever in the middle of the night.Through examination, her current physical condition is not very good.“Luckily, it didn't hit her tendon, otherwise she would have had to lie down for several months.” The doctor said with a serious face.“Thank you, doctor.”Kevin bowed his head to say thank you and then pushed Emily out of the emergency room with the nurse. She lay still, not daring to look up at him.The feeling of lying on her back on the stretcher and being dragged away like this made her scared, feeling empty and unsafe.In her head, she was imagining many of the next situations, his questions, and his attitude when they were alone.“The patient will stay in a one-bed VIP room, right?” The nurse confirmed it again because Kevin had suggested it earlie
After a windy and rainy night, the sun gradually appeared, but the cold and dampness still lingered, and did not want to leave.Emily frowned because of the pain coming from the top of her foot. She had forgotten that she was injured and in the hospital, so she moved a bit too hard.Hearing the noise coming from the bathroom door, she reflexively looked in that direction and saw Kevin. He changed back into long pants and a white shirt, neat and nice.“Do you want to go to the bathroom?” He walked closer to her and asked.“I can walk on my own. If I move slightly, the wound doesn't hurt too much.”“Uh. Luckily you didn't have a fever last night. The doctor has allowed you to leave the hospital. You change your clothes and I'll take you home.”After speaking, he immediately went out, giving her space. Last night, he couldn't sleep peacefully because he had to check now and then to see if she had a fever.He thought that the fact that she tricked him, sold the company, and ran away prove
Kurt's trip took longer than expected, it wasn't until Thursday night that he set foot at the airport.During this business trip, some friends took him to get acquainted with the big bosses of companies specializing in importing handicraft products from rattan and bamboo for distribution in their country and to other countries.Their potential customers are cafes, tourist areas, resorts, restaurants, hotels... even houses.The first thing Kurt did when he almost got home was to knock on Emily's motel room door and give her some dumplings he bought on the south side of the city.He heard the deputy manager report what happened in the pub that day, but because he didn't know what Emily's current mood was and whether she wanted someone else to mention that issue, he still didn't ask her.“It smells so good, thank you.” She took the bag of dumplings, smiling brightly, no different from a child being given candy.“Does your leg still hurt?” Kurt looked down at the wound on her foot and ask
