A Whirlwind Marriage with the Beautiful CEO novel Chapter 48

Chapter 48 

Terence Group was the leading enterprise in 

Yeringham. Therefore, every office worker wanted to 

join the company. 

Emmanuel casually flipped through a few resumes 

while submitting his. He realized a majority of the 

applicants had a bachelor’s degree from either local or 

international universities. There were even 

postgraduates who applied for the position. 

This is ridiculous! It’s just an errand–boy position, and 

the benefits aren’t that great. Still, it attracted so many 

talented people to apply for it. Looks like many want to use this position as their steppingstone to join Terence 

Group. 

As compared to theirs, Emmanuel’s resume was not as 

impressive, and his skills were not a match. 

When he placed his resume down, he heard a familiar 

voice. 

“Haha! Even an illiterate person wants to join Terence 

Group. He’s totally building castles in the air.” 

Emmanuel turned around to find the voice belonged to 

Milani’s brother, Jacob. 

Although Jacob was like a ruffian, he had a bachelor’s 

degree. Hence, he wanted to try his luck in Terence 

Group. 

If he got accepted, he could work together with Milani. 

Jacob’s words invoked hushed discussions among the 

young people in the precinct. 

“Haha! A high school graduate is joining in the fun, 

eh?” 

“Don’t make fun of others. Perhaps he just returned 

from serving in the army.” 

“He should just apply for the security guard position 

with his qualifications. Why bother wasting everyone’s 

time?” 

Emmanuel looked impassive on the outside when he 

heard their comments. Deep down, a myriad of 

emotions was brewing in his heart. 

Truth was, he did not choose to join the army because 

he did not do well in school. Guarding the front lines 

and protecting the country had been something the 

men in the Lowe family had been doing. 

In fact, his father died at a young age because he 

sacrificed himself for the nation.

If not for the mistake he made at Northern Region, 

Emmanuel would not have returned to Yeringham with 

a grudge. And now, his resume was nothing compared 

to the others. 

What he did not expect was that he actually passed 

the first interview by just submitting his resume. 

On top of that, he spotted another familiar face while 

waiting in the lounge for his final interview. 

“Mom? Why are you here?” Emmanuel called out. 

Jacob and the others, who were staring at him just 

now, whispered among themselves, “Not only is he a high school graduate, but he brought his mother 

along, too.” 

“This is really crazy and embarrassing!” 

“Hmph. Is he trying to get hired with such 

qualifications? Dream on.” 

Emmanuel’s fury intensified when he heard the crowd’s 

comments. However, he could not be bothered to 

entertain them. He quickly made his way to Alessandra 

and asked, “Mom, shouldn’t you be resting in the ward? 

Why are you here?” 

Alessandra originally wanted to hide from him, but 

now that Emmanuel had approached her, she could only sigh and explain, “You didn’t give your wife a betrothal gift, nor did you buy anything for her. Now, you’re even borrowing money from her. It makes me feel really uncomfortable. Anyway, I heard they’re hiring cleaners here, and the benefits are better than in most other places. That’s why I’m here.” 

Emmanuel’s heart clenched when he heard that. 

In the past, he was not interested in money at all. 

Recently, he began to understand the pain of not 

having money. 

His mother was already fifty–seven years old, yet she
