“That’s great! You should urge them to have the surgery done as soon as possible.” Patricia smiled because there was finally hope for Darcie.
At the same time, the man was descending the stairs when he heard her giggles. He took light steps down the stairs in order not to surprise her.
Then, he overheard that she was job-hunting, which reminded him of the video clip he saw yesterday. He had not expected her to work in a pet shop as the veterinary gown did not suit her at all. Thus, it was reasonable for her to lose her job.
Feeling the scorching gaze on her back, Patricia took a glance behind her to see Isaac standing over there while looking at her. “Darcie, I’ve got something to do for now. I’ll swing by a few days later to see you guys.”
She terminated the call and strode toward Isaac. “Breakfast is ready. Enjoy.”
She led him to the kitchen, in which their meal was served on the dining table. Due to the old building structure, the dining room and kitchen shared the same space so that Josephine could have a room for herself next to it.
Noticing the coat of yellow leaves in the yard, Isaac unconsciously raised his gaze to look at the tree.
Patricia piped up, “It’s a pear tree. It usually bears a lot of pears in autumn. They’re sweet and crunchy.”
Even if he did not like pears, he was tempted to try some here after hearing her words. He trailed behind her into the kitchen. It was an old-style kitchen, and the marble dining table was so clean that one could see their reflection through it.
He sat down, and she scooped a bowl of porridge for him before removing the cloche to reveal the mouth-watering side dishes.
“Isaac, this is the best we can provide. Enjoy.” Patricia seated herself opposite him and began to revel in her breakfast. She enjoyed the porridge while eating the side dishes at times.
It was a satisfying moment for him to see her taking her meal. The simple dishes seemed tasty to him too.
After breakfast, it was time for him to take his leave. He checked on the time before giving her a business card. “My company is hiring people at the moment. So, if you’re looking for a job, you can give this person a call and mention my name.”
Her eyes widened at that. Arnold Corporation was a sacred place where many of the graduates from prestigious universities could not even enter despite their excellent academic backgrounds. Do I have the right to work here?
“President Isaac, I didn’t go to college.” It was the very drawback that hindered her in terms of job-hunting.
Isaac nodded as he still remembered what she had told him. “They won’t pick on the person I recommend.”
Indeed, who would dare to say a word under the president’s recommendation?
Patricia broke into a smile. “Thank you, President Isaac.”
When he was leaving, he suddenly said, “The point is you still owe me money. I’m afraid that you’ll run away, so it’s best to keep you by my side.”
After he left the house, she stood in the yard and murmured, “What a petty man.”
So, the purpose of introducing her to a job was to keep an eye on her. She forsook the thought of seeing him off in split seconds.
In the car, Liam felt that Isaac’s demeanor had softened because of his clothes. Sensing the gaze upon him, Isaac glared at Liam, causing him to smile awkwardly. “President Isaac, you look handsome today.”
Isaac looked at himself. Although Patricia did not knit the sweater for him, it was still a comfortable one. “Inform the human resources team to hire Patricia Aniston as my secretary if she sends an application.”
