CHAPTER 4: WEIRDOS EVERYWHERE 

It was out of Emma's expectation that he was the president of her company.Then, the president didn’t recognize her after having sex.

It was too much for him to help the bastard Davies! However, on second thought, maybe President Wood was afraid that his affair with a female employee would be discovered, so he found such a lame excuse to dismiss her.

Emma looked at this pair of evil superiors angrily.

She thought that the world was full of awful people.Justin was a bad man, so were Oliver and Davies.

Oliver's attitude was very clear.

All the staffs in the personnel department were sophisticated.

When they saw Emma coming in with her head down, the person in charge did not even say any nonsense.

Instead, he immediately handed the letter of dismissal and the compensation that should have taken her one day to get.

Wood Enterprise was a family enterprise.

Oliver just came back to succeed his uncle's position for not long.

This time, he went to the design department personally in order to know about the staff's situation and work condition.

He hadn't expected to meet the girl last night.

Emma...This belongs to .

Thinking of her leaving with a look of grievance, Oliver felt a little funny and looked at Davies with a deeper meaning in his eyes.

It seemed that the company didn't have a good culture.

Someone actually bullied the female employees under his nose.

He had seen Davies's resume.

He was only a small manager of the design department after he had worked more than a decade, which was the best he got.

In the future, he would find a reasonable excuse to fire him, which could be used as an outlet for the innocent Emma to vent her anger.

Emma became an unemployed vagrant all of a sudden.

She walked on the street with a disheartened heart.

She was not only worried about her body and but also anxious about her future job.

Seeing beautiful displays in a cabinet window, Emma looked at her haggard face reflected on the cabinet window.

There were so many good companies except the Wood Enterprise.

Why should she focus on it? Besides, the four-year experience in a famous university was not for nothing.

What's more, she was an outstanding graduate, one in a hundred! Her qualification was good enough, so she didn't need to worry about not finding a job.

Thinking of this, Emma finally raised his spirits and patted her face.

Everything would be fine.

On the next day, she had been looking for a suitable job for the whole morning, but she got nothing.

She had to find a place to had lunch first.

At this time, her cell phone rang again.

It was her sister who called her.

Although Emma was dissatisfied with her sister's decision not to care about the family matter, she thought that it was not easy after she got married.

There was no estrangement between sisters, so she answered the phone, "Hello? Sister."

"Emma, have you eaten yet?"

"Not yet."

Sarah said, "We're in the Presto Grill Restaurant.Come here, and we have a meal together and talk about Dad.I didn't call Mom."

"All right."

Emma hung up the phone, and she felt a little comforted.

Even if her sister's family was in a tight budget, she would still worry about father's illness.After getting to the hotel, Emma found that Kaylee was also in the private room.

Kaylee was the sister of Luke, her brother-in-law.

She was quite a beautiful girl, but Emma hadn't seen her very often since she went to college.

"Emma, come, have a seat."

Sarah asked her younger sister to sit next to her, "The dishes we ordered today are all your favorites."

Having suffered a series of blows, Emma almost shed tears when she suddenly felt the warmth of her family.

She was very touched.

Before she could say anything to express her gratitude, she heard her brother-in-law ask leisurely, "Emma was the Campus Belle when you were at University M, right?"

To tell the truth, the title of the campus belle brought much more displeasure to her than glory.

Emma's face changed slightly.

She lowered her head to drink tea and mumbled, "I was called this way before."

Luke let out a sigh of relief, "Then you must have known many school leaders, right?"

Emma looked at Kaylee’s nervous and expectant expression, and then looked at Luke's expression which said it natural that that she helped them.

Finally, her eyes fell on her sister Sarah.

So that was how it was.

She remembered that Kaylee was going to take the college entrance examination this year.

She seemed to have heard from her sister that Kaylee's grades were not bad, but it was difficult for her to be admitted to University M.

Emma said, "Dad's condition..."

Sarah interrupted her, "Let's talk about it later.Emma, could you please help us think about how to let your leaders stretch a rule for Kaylee so that she could enter University M?"

"Stretch a rule?"

"I'm just a common graduate.What right do I have to make them stretch a rule?"

Emma was already a little angry when she said this.

Her sister had asked her to come here to discuss their father's illness, which turned out to be an excuse to trick her into coming here.

Actually they wanted to let her find her leaders to stretch a point! Sarah did not regard it as a problem, "Your previous Director of Academic Office was very nice to you.He even called home to look for you.As long as you beg him, it's a piece of cake for him to let Kaylee enter your university.He treats you specially."

"Specially? Sister, the director is a married man.What do you want me to tell him?"

Emma asked with her hands clenched.

Sarah said, "What can a woman Say to a man? You just need to do whatever he wants you to do.Your brother-in-law works in the finance circle, so he has no friends in the education circle.Justin who studies design doesn't come to our house for ten days or even half a month.Can I count on him to help me?"

When Emma heard the name Justin, she felt a stab of pain in her heart.

Sarah saw that Emma didn't speak, she became more straightforward, "Emma, our parents gave you such a beautiful look.You can't waste it.Justin is so boring, and you can't rely on only this man.You should serve the director well.As for our parents, you don't have to worry about them."

"It's a matter of him and me.Sister, it's none of your business whether he is boring or not.I will take care of Dad, which is my obligation."

Emma stood up, "But, you, my sister, have humiliated me like this.How can you do that? I can't help you with this.You should ask Kaylee to study hard!"

She turned around and wanted to leave.Sarah slammed her fists on the table and stood up, "Emma! Everything has been arranged.You can't be disobedient!"

Emma was so angry that she didn't even turn her head, "If you want to serve someone, go ahead.Don't ask me to do this!"

She opened the door angrily and saw the Director of Academic Office who was led over by the waiter.

"Emma."

The director had recognized Emma and immediately looked her up and down with a happy face, "You have graduated for two years, haven't you? You are more mature than you were at school."

Emma was stunned for a moment, and then turned around to look at her sister angrily.

Is this the so-called "arranged"? Sarah and Luke immediately came out to welcome him, "It's our honor to have you here, Director."

With that, Sarah touched Emma with her elbow, "Don't you hurry to greet the director?"

After listening to what her sister said,, Emma could not pretend that she had heard nothing even if the director did not say anything.

She forced a smile that was uglier than cry and said, "Good day...I just want to go to the bathroom.You can go in first, and I'll excuse myself."

The Director of Academic Office had a hunch when he was invited by Emma's sister.

At this time, he was quite excited to see Emma.

He didn't know that Emma had just quarreled with her sister.

He just smiled and said, "Okay, we'll wait for you in the room."

Emma ran away in a hurry.

Let them clean up the mess! She wouldn't do that prostitute kind of thing! While walking, Emma felt very sad.

Sarah was her biological sister, but she even wanted to make her life a living hell.

She treated Kaylee better than herself, even though she was her biological sister.

"Emma Brook!"

Her older sister's voice sounded behind her.

Emma turned around and was immediately slapped in the face.

Shocked, Emma covered her face with her hands and looked at her angry sister in front of her, "What...what right do you have to hit me?"

"Why? Do you still regard me as your older sister?"

Sarah said, feeling even more aggrieved than Emma, "Our parents have doted on you since you were a child.They gave you anything delicious and interesting, but I didn't have anything!"

"Which one of my things don't you have?"

Emma said angrily, "Our parents buy everything for two people.Don't pretend to be poor!"

"Nonsense, because you are beautiful, they obviously dote on you more! Even the old house is for you."

"The old house is for our parents when they grow old.Why will I want it?And even if they give it to me, I can't take it!"

Sarah was aggressive, "You've grown up and become strong-willed.You don't listen to me now.I'm just asking you to serve the director.Who are you showing that chaste look for?"

"Even though you know that he has ulterior motives, you still asked him here.You might as well give me to him as a gift!"

As she spoke, Emma's eyes were a little moist.

"Why can't you sacrifice yourself for your family? Besides, the check you gave mom is clean? With your job, you can't make so much money after working for another ten years.Do you regard me as a three- year-old child? You must have slept with some man.Since you've had a taste of it, don't pretend to be virtuous anymore.There is no difference between sleeping with one man and two.As long as you sleep with the director, all the problems will be solved."

Emma sneered, "Once we meet a problem, you have to rely on sex to solve it.Why don't I find a very wealthy man this time? If there's any trouble in the future, all I need to do is to sleep with him!"

Sarah said, "Do you think finding a wealthy man is as easy as finding a cabbage on the ground? If you can do it, just do so"

Emma said those words out of anger, but Sarah even wanted to take this nonsense seriously.

Looking at Sarah who had spent so many years together, Emma suddenly felt that she had never understood Sarah.

Sarah was sure that Emma could not find a wealthy man, so she blocked Sarah's way aggressively and forced her to go back to see the director.

With tears welling up in her eyes, and Emma suddenly felt her shoulders were tightened and found that she was pulled into a hug by a person.

Oliver smiled on the top of Emma's head, "What happened to you? Look at you, your tears are falling down."

Sarah saw a well-dressed and good-looking man hugging Emma suddenly.

She couldn't help opening her eyes wide, "Who are you?"

Oliver held Emma with one hand and wiped tears from her eyes gently with the other hand.

He said in a doting tone, "I'm Oliver Wood.I should be counted as the wealthy man you just said."

Sarah looked at him with her mouth wide open, her face full of incredulity, "...Oliver Wood?"

The seal on the check did show the Wood Enterprise, and Oliver Wood was the new president of Wood Group to succeed his uncle Thomas Wood.

She had heard about it from Luke, but how could it be so coincidental?
