Never Too Far Novel
Chapter 1511-1520
However, the person on the other end remained friendly as he said, “How about this? I’ll get her a job at the reception first. If she’s willing to take this job, we’ll give her an official contract once the probation period of three months is over. Please send me her number and basic details.”
“Okay, great! Thank you a bunch, Mr. McConaughey,” Connor said in relief, thinking that this was suitable compensation for Ellen.
His daughter was employed, and Ellen didn’t have to worry about job searching anymore.
When he got home, Olivia continued to ask him whether he had given any money to Ellen, which was within his expectations.
“She wouldn’t take it even if I wanted to give it to her,” he answered helplessly.
“It’s only right that she doesn’t take it as she should understand that every single penny from this family is unrelated to her,” Olivia scoffed. Every word she uttered was more demeaning than the last.
He stared at his wife and felt as though he was looking at a stranger. What turned her into such a heartless person? Was it money? he wondered.
All these years, their relationship was quite stable, but he noticed that his wife had gradually turned into a selfish and indifferent person. She hoarded money like a dragon and no longer had any compassion for others.
Annoyed by his stare, she barked, “What are you looking at?”
“Nothing.” Initially, he wanted to tell her that he had gotten Ellen into the Presgrave Group as well, but he decided against it.
However, the person on the other end remained friendly as he said, “How about this? I’ll get her a job at the reception first. If she’s willing to take this job, we’ll give her an official contract once the probation period of three months is over. Please send me her number and basic details.”
Soon, Selena returned home and was over the moon to find out that she got the position of financial analyst. For a fresh graduate, it would be impossible for her to get such a good job. Furthermore, she merely wanted to go there and work to get an extra point for herself so that she could have better chances of meeting men of higher social class.
Soon, Selena returned home and was over the moon to find out that she got the position of financial analyst. For a fresh graduate, it would be impossible for her to get such a good job. Furthermore, she merely wanted to go there and work to get an extra point for herself so that she could have better chances of meeting men of higher social class.
While she sat on the couch, the image of that young man she bumped into at the golf course that day appeared in her mind. For the past few days, she would go there for a walk and take some pictures with her friends, but she didn’t run into him again.
Despite her disappointment, she looked forward to seeing him again because some people in this world had the charm to steal one’s heart at first sight.
At night, Ellen fell asleep amidst her tears; she wasn’t afraid, but she merely missed Jessica and couldn’t accept the fact that she was gone.
Early the following day, she woke up in a daze when she heard her cell phone ringing. She blindly reached out to grab her phone and picked up the call. “Hello? Who’s this?”
“Am I speaking to Miss Ellen Reiss? I’m calling from the Human Resource Department of Presgrave Group. Can you come to work tomorrow?”
“Work? Presgrave Group? Me?” A clueless Ellen didn’t remember submitting her resume to this company before.
“Yes, you’re hired. Is there a problem?”
At the moment, she was in urgent need of a job. She couldn’t be bothered to wonder whether this job offer was a mistake as she grasped it tight like a lifeline.
“No, no problem at all. I’ll be there tomorrow,” she stammered with excitement.
Even after she had ended the call, she still thought she was dreaming. She had a job now, and it was even a job at Presgrave Group! Once again, she tried to recall the resumes she had sent and was sure that she hadn’t sent one there. Whatever, she thought. I’ll just show up there tomorrow and see what happens!
Out of the blue, she was struck with overwhelming sorrow. If Jessica was watching her from the other side and knew that she was going to start working in a huge corporation, would she be happy for her?
She would need a decent business suit for her job tomorrow. Alas, the clothes Connor bought for her were all casual wear, which was unsuitable for an interview. In addition, an international company such as Presgrave Group would definitely have a strict dress code.
Hence, she opened the other bags that were fully packed. These were the old clothing that Olivia had packed for her, and she had brought all of them back.
One by one, she laid them out on the bed to take a good look at them. Finally, she found a business suit with a skirt that looked professional, and she heaved a sigh of relief. Not only did this look good, but it also didn’t look worn out.
After she checked the label and noticed that it was from a renowned brand, she sighed again. Selena’s life is something that I couldn’t even have in my dreams.
Of course, she wasn’t jealous but merely envious because she had faith that her life would only improve.
The next day before going to work, she wore some light makeup early in the morning and took the public bus to Presgrave Group.
Meanwhile, at Connor’s house, Selena had put on the business suit she had just bought and wore delicate makeup before leaving the house via her father’s luxury car.
Under the morning sun, the dark blue glass panels of the Presgrave Group building walls reflected a dazzling light, and after Ellen hopped off the public bus, she scurried over quickly, worried that she would be late.
At the same time, Selena had just arrived after parking the car in the parking lot.
She held her purse over her shoulder, paced toward the revolving doors, and it was then that she caught sight of a familiar figure. She thought that her eyes were playing tricks on her, so she focused and looked again.
I was right, she thought. I did see Ellen. How’s this possible? Why is she here? Also, the attire she’s wearing looks very familiar as well. That looks like it belonged to me. Mom told me that she gave Ellen all of my old clothes, and it seemed like she was really wearing them.
Her red lips turned upward into a contemptuous smirk, and she walked briskly toward the lobby.
Ellen stood in the lobby and raised her head in amazement as she stared in awe at the grand and resplendent hall, too stunned by the sight.
This was a working environment she had never imagined working in, and it was simply too grand!
Right then, Selena walked in and saw her. Although she really didn’t want to acknowledge her, curiosity got the better of her, and she approached her, asking, “Ellen, what are you doing here?”
A startled Ellen turned and lit up when she saw Selena. “You’re here, too, Selena? Are you here to work as well?”
“It’s my first day at work today. So, what are you doing here?” She’s not here to do odd jobs, is she? Selena wondered.
Ellen blinked innocently as she answered, “I-I’m here to work.”
“What?” Selena thought that she had misheard Ellen, yet her hopes were shattered when she saw Ellen’s nod.
“It’s my first day at work, too.”
Selena took a deep breath as she thought, How could she get a job here? What qualifications does she have?
“These clothes are mine, aren’t they? Are you sure you can bring out the elegance of these clothes?” she scoffed and flounced off in annoyance.
The fact that Ellen was working here made her feel that the compelling character of the place had lowered.
Meanwhile, Ellen’s face was scarlet for a second and pale the next. Although she knew that Selena was mocking her, she could only sigh and let it go.
Then, she went to the Human Resource Department to sign the employment contract. She still couldn’t believe she was hired and even immediately had a position at the front desk. When she saw the base salary, her eyes lit up with delight.
My god, the base salary is 15,000! she gushed silently, and her hands shook with excitement as she signed the contract.
After she read through the contract, she was sent to look for her superior at the front desk to assign work to her.
Back in the lobby, Ellen looked at the long and grand front desk; all of the equipment was so advanced. She couldn’t help but feel that this entire place looked elegant despite it being just a receptionist’s working area.
She was assigned next to senior staff because her superior, Carrie Lynch, took extra care of her and didn’t give her any pressure at all.
In addition, Carrie had also received a note from the higher-ups, so she treated Ellen slightly better than the others.
Simultaneously in the finance department, Selena was assigned an office to herself within an extensive department. Although her run-in with Ellen had dampened her mood, she was still pleased with her job.
Selena was a person who was good at handling situations and even better at acting coy. So, it wasn’t long before she got a male colleague in the office beside hers to teach her devotedly and would always show up to help on matters that stumped her.
Ellen clocked off at 6.30PM on her first day of work. Although she messed up sometimes due to her inexperience, she was a quick learner. It also helped that there happened to be another colleague at the front desk who was about to get married soon. So, her colleague guided her to take over the workload.
After work, Ellen went home immediately while Selena went out with that male colleague for dinner to learn about the ins and outs of the company.
Selena could no longer suppress her curiosity any longer as she asked, “Chris, who’s the president of Presgrave Group now?”
“Don’t you know that the young master of the Presgrave Family has taken over the reins at the company?”
“What does he look like? I’ve never seen him before. Do you have a picture of him?” she asked inquisitively.
The next second, a man named Christian took out his phone and scrolled through to find the picture that was circulated in the company’s internal group. The man in the photo was seated in the conference room, looking young and dashing with an intelligent glint in his eyes, simply a hunk that was a ten on the scale.
Selena took his phone, glanced at the picture, and almost dropped it. Nevertheless, she hurriedly composed herself as she held it tightly and covered her mouth, staring in disbelief at the man in the photo.
Oh, my god! Isn’t this the man I bumped into at the golf course last time? So, he’s the current boss of Presgrave Group?
Her heart beat madly against her chest, and her eyes were filled with ambition as she smiled happily at the picture.
“So, this is our boss! Will we meet him every day?”
Her words sent a pang of jealousy through Christian’s chest. Truth be told, he was a little interested in Selena because she was a newbie at the company, pretty, and had a good figure. In addition, he could tell from how she looked that she came from a wealthy family because he accidentally glanced at her car key and saw that she was driving a Bentley; of course, he was interested in her.
“Regular employees like us don’t have a chance to meet him,” he said, shaking his head.
However, in Selena’s heart, she was already fantasizing about how she could get to know her boss. The last thing she was expecting was for the man she thought she would never meet again would appear so suddenly, and she was so excited that she wanted to scream her joy at the rooftops.
After dinner, she went home and found Olivia in high spirits over the fact that she had a proper job.
“How did it go? Are you happy on your first day?”
”Yes, but an annoying person affected my mood,” she answered candidly.
“What annoying person?” Olivia asked quizzically.
“Who else but Ellen? I don’t even know how she managed a job at Presgrave Group. What a damper!” she whined, utterly annoyed.
