At night, Sidney sent out numerous résumés. His abilities were exceptional, and his designs were innovative. During his time at Maria's studio, he had only collaborated with Aveline on one project; after that, he worked independently.
He was confident he could find a good company.
However, three days passed, and there wasn't a single response.
On the seventh day, he finally received a reply and was invited for an afternoon interview. But when he arrived, he was informed that the position had already been filled.
Sidney stood at the bus stop, wearing a white shirt and black trousers, his entire appearance clean and handsome. He stared at the cold message on his phone, his eyes reflected in the screen with a hint of chill.
He had a pretty good idea of what was happening.
Recalling Maria’s ambiguous smile, he took a deep breath.
Forget it.
He’d find something else and try again later.
…
In the blink of an eye, half a month passed.
Maria had been waiting for Sidney to come back to her, but he never showed.
Tsk tsk...
Sidney was proud. Once he made a decision, he rarely regretted it.
Maria, however, refused to believe it. She wanted to see him broken, his pride crushed under the weight of her manipulations.
Seeing his clean, handsome face clouded with restraint, pain, and defeat gave her a thrill like no other.
She wasn’t done playing with him.
How could she let him go so easily?
Maria opened her computer, her delicate fingers tapping rapidly on the keyboard, and soon, Sidney's current location appeared.
Oh, working as a waiter in a restaurant now, was he?
In the evening, Maria had arranged to meet a client for dinner at a restaurant. When she saw Sidney moving swiftly through the restaurant, dressed in a shirt and vest, a satisfied smile appeared at the corner of her lips.
