Chapter 592 “Heh! As expected!” Tammy sneered. “Chelsea brought that lady over to present her to Elliot.”
Avery retracted her gaze. Although she found it absurd, she could not control what other people do.
“How unlucky! We were initially in a good mood, yet we bumped into them.” Tammy took a sip of water and looked at Avery. “Avery, why don’t we change to a different restaurant?”
Avery shook her head. “We came here35 first.”
“I’m afraid you’ll be upset.”
“Even if I’m upset, we can’t leave,” Avery said calmly, “We have already ordered the food. We can’t let it go toee waste.”
“Why don’t we take it away and have it back home!”
Avery said, “Tammy, I don’t remember you being such a coward? If that lady has really done something to her face to look like me, then she should be afraid of seeing me, not me avoidingof her.”
“Of course, I’m not a coward! Even if Elliot walks to me right now, I won’t be afraid!” Tammy might say that she was not afraid, but she subconsciously reached out her hand to touch the
cheek that was slapped previously.
The waiter served them and placed the dishes on the table. Avery picked up her utensils and placed some food in her68 dish.
“When my mom was still alive, she often told me to let bygones be bygones. Whether it was a person or something. Don’t think about the past. Life will be less troublesome that way.”
Tammy said, “She put it well, but it’s hard to achieveya this.”
“Hmm. My mom loves my father a lot. After their divorce, she could not get over it. It was until when my father passed away that the lawyers read his will. When she realized that he left the company and the core technology that he has been researching for me, she sobbed terribly, then only did she get over it. She felt that all the grievances that she went through were all worth it.”
“Sometimes I really hate it. Why a good person like Aunt Laura was killed but Wanda has not even received her retribution!” Tammy said through gritted teeth.
Avery lowered her gaze and said depressingly, “Let’s eat!”
On the other side, after Elliot saw the lady in the white dress, a hint of surprise flashed across
his eyes.
“Elliot, this is my cousin, Nora,” Chelsea introduced her to Elliot, “She just graduated college. She’s been looking for a job recently. I’m thinking if she could work with me in the same company, I could look after her.”
“Hello, Elliot. I’m Nora,” Nora said gently.
Elliot looked at her face closely. It was too similar to Avery!
Would two unrelated people look alike in this world?
“Elliot, do you think that Nora looks a little like Avery?” When Chelsea saw how Elliot kept looking at Nora, she immediately explained, “She has been studying abroad all this while. I only saw her the day before yesterday.”
Nora said, “Chelsea said that I look like Avery, I didn’t believe her initially. It was until she showed me her photo that I realized I do look quite like her!”
Chelsea smiled and said, “Only about fifty percent or so. Nora is mixed. Her facial features are more protruding.”
Nora blushed. “Elliot, I wonder if you would let me work in your company?”
“What is your major?”
“Secretarial work,” Nora obediently replied, “Elliot, if I could work next to you, I will work hard. I won’t let you down.”
Elliot said coldly, “I’m not lacking secretaries. If you can’t find a job, I’ll introduce you to my friend’s company on behalf of Chelsea.”
Chelsea was stunned. Nora was baffled too.
“Elliot, I really want her to work for us. That way, I can take care of her easier,” Chelsea bore through the embarrassment and said shamelessly.
Elliot said, “Then, place her in your department.”
Nora’s eyes instantly reddened. Chelsea grabbed her hand under the table and said to Elliot,” Then, I’ll arrange for her to work in my department.”
Elliot said, “You don’t have to report such small matters to me.”
Chelsea did not expect that he would be so cold toward Nora. Nora looked a lot like Avery, but her facial features were much more exquisite than Avery’s. Any man who looked at Nora would fall for her. Not only did Elliot not fall for her, but he detested her too.
