CEO's Tears Over Pregnancy Test Discovery novel Chapter 1580

“What kind of job?” Ben asked.

“I’m still looking,” Jamie replied.

“In that case, why not work for me?” Ben suggested without hesitation.

Jamie froze, momentarily stunned by his directness.

She was about to refuse when Ben, seemingly predicting her reaction, added, “Don’t be so quick to say no. If you join any other top-tier company, whether as HR or in another role, the pay won’t compare. What I can offer is far better than anything they can.”

His words left her silent.

If this were a romantic confession, it would undoubtedly be the most alluring kind. Who wouldn’t want a job with great benefits?

But working under Ben? That was a mental hurdle Jamie wasn’t sure she could overcome.

After a long pause, she said, “Let me think about it.”

Ben didn’t press her, giving her three days to decide. By then, Charlie would be starting preschool, leaving her with more time to work.

Jamie spent the next few days applying for various jobs, only to face repeated disappointments. The salaries didn’t meet her expectations, or the companies didn’t want to hire a single mother, assuming her priorities would always lie with her child.

The discrimination left her both angry and frustrated.

Amid her struggles, Ben’s offer began to seem increasingly appealing.

“I need some advice,” Jamie said over the phone to Nina. “It’s about a friend of mine…” Jamie said, calling Nina.

Hearing the familiar prelude, Nina responded knowingly, “Oh, you’ve got a friend, huh? Go on.”

“It’s not me.”

“Sure, sure, it’s not you. Go on.”

Jamie sighed and explained her current predicament, including Ben’s job offer.

Nina responded decisively, “What’s there to hesitate about? Obviously, you take the better option! The opportunity is practically being handed to you. All you have to do is reach out and take it.”
