Martha frowned. When did her grandson start liking to fool around with girls in hotels? He was simply ruining their family’s name.
“It seems that I have to meet Miss Sophia
when I have the time.”
“Grandma, when you meet her, you have to warn her to stay away from Artie,” Emily reminded.
Martha nodded before saying, “Then, you have to work hard too! Don’t waste the opportunity that I created for you and Artie.”
Emily pursed her lips and said in a slightly aggrieved tone, “I will.”
Early in the morning, Sophia answered a call in a daze. “Hello? Who is it?”
“Hello, are you Miss Sophia? I’m from the HR department at Bourgeois Jewelry Atelier. We have arranged for you to
interview for the front desk job at 10 o’clock in the morning. Do you have time to come over?”
When Sophia heard this, she hurriedly replied in an excited tone, “Yes, yes, I’ll definitely be there.”
She was ecstatic as she didn’t expect to receive a response when she had just submitted her resume the previous night. Besides, Bourgeois Jewelry Atelier was a high-end jewelry brand, so it was promising for her career.
After hurriedly getting out of bed, she washed up and put on makeup before leaving. When the time for her appointment came, Sophia’s attractive appearance and elegant aura that she had gained from her dance practice since she was a child were in line with the requirements to be a receptionist.
“Sophia, you can start work tomorrow!” The manager of the HR department instantly hired her.
She felt incredibly lucky. The salary and benefits of the company were not bad as well and completely met her expectations.
When Sophia arrived for her first day at work on Tuesday, she saw that amongst the six receptionists, she was placed on the far left. Although they were working at the front desk, they still had complicated feelings toward each other, especially toward other girls who were prettier than them. Sophia was dressed in a professional suit with her long hair tied back, and her slim figure gave off a refreshing and stunning aura.
“Hello, everyone, I’m Sophia, and I just started working here. I’ll be in your care.” She greeted them.
was a little surprised. It was her first time entering the workforce, and she had already encountered a crisis.
She sat in her position, and there was only a transition plan from the previous staff. As for instructions on how to work,
they did not specify in detail.
“Excuse me…” She tried to ask her colleague next to her.
“Don’t ask me. I won’t teach you,” the girl replied arrogantly.
At her answer, Sophia didn’t dare to ask any more questions. Just then, the phone in front of her rang, and she reached out to pick it up. “Hello. How may I help you?”
“Transfer my call to the general manager of the planning department.” A male voice instructed her from the other end of the call.
“Huh? Wait a moment, let me check.” Sophia quickly flipped through the transition plan, but she still couldn’t find an answer after a long time.
The person on the call said angrily, “What’s wrong with you?” After speaking, he instantly hung up.
Sophia’s forehead beaded with sweat from her nervousness. As she wiped her sweat in frustration, the girl next to her sneered, “How could you come to work without any experience?”
“This is indeed my first job.”
“I think you should quit! You can’t handle it.” Her female colleague didn’t want to
help her, and she didn’t want her to remain as a receptionist either.
Still, Sophia didn’t give up and replied, “I will try my best. I need this job.”
She was just looking at documents when she saw that her colleagues who had been lazing around suddenly straightened their backs and acted as though they were working hard. She was taken aback by the sight, and as she looked in the direction of the entrance, she saw a slender and charming figure walking in gracefully.
The woman was Anastasia Tillman, the current president of Bourgeois Jewelry Atelier. She had wavy long hair and
delicate features, and she wore a luxurious white custom-made suit that complimented her gorgeous waistline as she walked past the front desk while talking on the phone.
“Good morning, President Tillman.” The receptionists immediately got up and bowed in greeting.
Sophia paused in surprise, and after everyone else had finished speaking, her voice sounded belatedly. “Good morning, President Tillman.”
