Serenity and Zachary York novel Chapter 3141

Elisa teased the secretary, “Do you want to get married, Helen? I can introduce some guys to you. I guarantee you’ll be happy for the rest of your life.”

Helen was a young, fresh graduate and was recently hired as Serenity’s secretary.

Helen refused politely. “Thank you, Ms. Stone. However, I’ve been dating my boyfriend since I was in uni. We’re in a steady relationship, and I have no thoughts of breaking up.”

“Where does your boyfriend work?” Elisa asked.

“He recently got a job at a small company. I don’t know if he’ll stay for long. He said his remuneration package isn’t as good as mine.”

Upon mentioning her boyfriend’s job, Helen's smiling expression turned into worry.

She had a good relationship with him. However, he had not gotten any good job offers but still liked comparing himself with her.

He believed that as a man, his salary could not be less than that of his partner.

He found it embarrassing.

Nevertheless, just like Helen, he was a fresh graduate without much experience or capabilities. Being able to get a job related to his studies was good enough. Many others usually end up working in a different industry than what they studied in university.

Why be disappointed when one could land a job that could keep oneself afloat?

While there was a surplus of fresh graduates, good job opportunities were scarce.

There would be many competitors interviewing for companies with good benefits and reputations. While Helen’s boyfriend wanted to join mega-corporations, he could not stand out in the sea of fresh graduates. In the end, he had to settle for a small company.

Naturally, the benefits a small company could offer were incomparable to Helen’s—her boss being the missus of the York family.

The two other co-founders came from strong families as well.
