The Returning EX (John and Sophia) novel Chapter 1851

Chapter 1851 Cindy Is Hired

Cindy agreed, then thought about it, and added, “So, it's really easy to live with him as I can still have two part-time jobs.”

The driver laughed; he was completely different from what she saw yesterday.

Following Cindy's instructions, the car came to the entrance of Paramount Group. She brought everything she had prepared before she went to the front desk again. It was the same receptionist who still remembered her. “It's you; you're here.”

Cindy first greeted her before explaining, “I forgot to bring my certificates when I came yesterday, so I’ve brought them over to show the people in charge today.”

The receptionist nodded, and then called the higher-ups from the inside line. After a few words on the phone this time, her attitude suddenly changed. Hanging up the phone, she said to Cindy kindly, “They are already waiting, so come, I'll take you there.”

Cindy was surprised and said, “No need, I'll just go over by myself. Are they still on the third floor?”

However, the receptionist ignored her and hurried over from behind the desk to take Cindy to the elevator. Cindy really couldn't figure out what was going on. When she came yesterday, the receptionist was not this attentive to her. Moreover, when the receptionist saw her, the receptionist’s attitude was lukewarm, but after a phone call, her whole personality had changed.

Soon, the receptionist took her into the elevator, and they arrived at the third floor. Someone was waiting at the elevator door on the other side of the third floor—it was the same girl who received Cindy and Ian yesterday. Similar to the receptionist, this girl's attitude had also improved and she was exceptionally polite to Cindy as she brought Cindy to the conference room all the way.

At this moment, Cindy suddenly panicked as she was unaware what the other party was going to do. There was something fishy going on and she didn’t know what it was. The receptionist left first while Cindy sat down with the other girl and handed over her certificates. The girl took out the certificates and looked at them one by one. Cindy noticed that the other party didn't look carefully at all, but simply scanned the certificates carelessly. She felt a little disappointed, thinking that with that kind of attitude, success should be out of the question.

What Cindy didn't expect was that the person showed a particularly good attitude after she set the certificates aside. “Academic qualifications are not really important as we mainly focus on ability. You came once yesterday and you’re here again today, so you must be sincere about joining us. Hence, we’ve also thought about it, and if this is the case, we think we should give each other a chance...”

When Cindy heard this, she was a little stunned and asked tentatively, “Do you mean that I am hired?”

The girl nodded. “If that’s alright with you, you can start your probationary period.”

Cindy really didn't know how to react as she never expected things to be so smooth. When she came in, she had already prepared herself for the worst as it was highly likely that she would be rejected. Yet, when the other party agreed all of a sudden, it caught her off guard.

She then asked, “Oh, but I may not be able to join so quickly. I still have a few things to hand over at my previous job which may take a few days. Is that okay?”

The girl eagerly agreed. “Of course, just come over after you have dealt with things over there.”

Cindy really didn't know why she had gotten so lucky all of a sudden. When she came yesterday, this girl was here and even asked her some questions about the job. Although Cindy had answered everything, she clearly felt that this girl was not particularly satisfied with her. However, because the two of them did not express their opinions at the time, it was all vague. She thought that the girl would still probe her even if she brought the certificates over today. Hence, what had just transpired caused her to be taken aback.

Since the other party was so easygoing, Cindy had nothing else to say. After she kept her certificates, she said, “Then, I’ll come when I’m ready and will call you in advance.”

The girl quickly took out her phone and wanted to exchange contact information with Cindy. “When the time comes, let me know when you are ready and I will prepare the procedure in advance.”

Cindy nodded. “Okay, we’ll keep in touch.”

The two then exchanged their contact information before she left in complete confusion. When she boarded the car, she still hadn’t returned to her senses.

The driver turned his head to look at her and wanted to laugh. “What's that expression about? It's alright; if they won’t hire you here, there’ll be other ways. As there are so many companies, there will always be one that will give you a chance to show off your skills.”

She shook her head. "No, no, that's not what I mean. I just haven’t returned to my senses. I didn’t even say anything and she said that I’m hired.”

This time, the girl didn't ask a single question and simply looked at Cindy’s certificates before deciding to hire Cindy. It had also surprised the driver as his eyes widened while he asked, “Did you pass? You’re qualified? You’re hired?”

He had also heard of this company and that it wasn’t easy to apply for a job since the threshold was very high.

Cindy nodded and replied, “The girl seems to have implied that.”

She took out her phone and looked at the contact information she had just exchanged with the girl. I’m not dreaming, am I? If I’m rejected, it would be impossible for her to leave me with her phone number.

The driver then laughed. “If this is a good thing, why do you look like this?”

She herself didn't know the answer. It was just that this matter was really too odd and completely beyond her expectations. Soon, the driver drove her back to the location where Ian was filming. The two did not enter the set, but they waited in the car. At this time, Ian was at the filming site, so it was useless for her to head in.

Cindy's head was still buzzing. She took out her diploma and looked at it. The school she graduated from was an ordinary university and not the kind that caught people’s attention at first glance. The certificates she received were not particularly valuable either as they were all issued by the school, so she really couldn't understand why the other party had agreed to hire her so readily.

Paramount Group was a very famous company, and it stood to reason that they would not recruit her just to make up for the numbers. She thought about many reasons but felt that none of them were right.

In the end, she held the diploma and let out a long sigh. Her good luck had come so suddenly that she was completely unprepared for this opportunity. It was a good thing that she would be starting at a high point in the industry since she was able to join this company. She only remembered to be happy after realizing it, and after a moment, she lowered her head and chuckled.

The driver also knew what she was thinking and quipped, “You really have slow reflexes, huh? It took you such a long time to remember to laugh.”

Cindy replied, “To be honest, I just came back to my senses.”

She took out her phone and quickly sent a message to Naomi, saying that she was about to enter Paramount Group and become a designer apprentice there.

As Naomi had studied fashion design and worked in the design industry, she naturally knew about Paramount Group. After receiving Cindy's message, she immediately called with surprise. “Really? Cindy, have you really entered that company? My God, I’m shocked by your every move. Extremely shocked.”

Cindy couldn't hide her smile. “You’re not the only one. I’m just as shocked since I thought it would be impossible, but they have actually hired me.”

Naomi smacked her lips and responded, “I really envy you. Your work is so good and your boyfriend is just as lovely. I'm
