Falling in Love With A One-Night Stand

“It’s the second one down the road on the right.” The receptionist answered

“Thanks.”

After she reached the door to the office, Alicia nervously knocked on the door

“Please come in,” a girl in the room said

“Hello, is Amber there?” Alicia cautiously pushed the door open

“lam Amber,” the girl said as she turned to face Alicia

Alicia was taken aback when she saw the girl. Her eyes were the deep blue of the sea, and her cheeks were the color of ripe raspberries. She was dressed in a dark green jersey, which added charm to her youthful appearance. At that moment, in Alicia’s heart, the girl in front of her was as stunning as a movie star

“Are you… you’re Amber? You look stunning,” Alicia stammered nervously

“Yes, in the flesh! Why are you standing there? Come here!” the girl said in a soft and sweet voice as she extended her hand to Alicia, “You’re Alicia, right? Thanks for your compliment, by the way.”

Tammy had been an e-sports live streamer for a while, and she had always gone by the name “Amber.” Nobody knew her appearance because she never let the camera capture her face. So, she could understand why Alicia was so surprised

“That won’t be necessary. Back when we communicated with each other, | found that you knew how it goes with live streaming very well. So, | believe that you’re competent enough for the position. If you’re okay with the salary, you’re hired,” Tammy said, setting her resume aside, “And I’ll tell you the specifics later.”

“I’m totally okay with the salary. Thank you for hiring me,” Alicia said with a nod, smiling happily

“All right, then. Take your time reading the contract. I’ve already signed it, so you can also sign it if you think it’s okay. You can come to work tomorrow.” Tammy took two papers from beneath the table and placed them on the desk. She then picked up her book bag from the hangar and placed one foot on the chair to tie her shoelaces

“I still have to get back to school,” she explained, “so just take your time reading the contract. Feel free to send me messages anytime if you have any questions about it.”

“All right.” Nodding, Alicia replied

“By the way, here’s the access card,” Tammy pulled a card from her bag and handed it to Alicia before leaving, “I’ll send you the code to open the door later, and you can input your fingerprints there.”

“Okay.”
