Hard To Say Goodbye

Chapter 48 Worldly Shackles

Recently, Nora's right eyelid had been twitching frequently. Some colleagues joked, "She's going to

make a fortune and be rich." Some of the colleagues said, "Your left eye jumped means you will earn

more money, and your right eye jumped means you will encounter bad luck."

Murphy told her, "You just didn't have a good rest which made you bilious. I think you should be lit."

Nora stared him and said, "You know how to treat an illness? Don't talk nonsense if you don't

understand. Don't worry."

How could a well-educated girl like her believe superstition? Any abnormal sign on her body was

related to health. She knew she should be lit

SHe was busy with her work in the daytime and took care of little Hugh in the evening. Her schedule

was full, maybe because he was too busy to drink water during this period of time, which caused her

fever.

If there was a problem with her physical function, she had to find a solution. Every day, she would drink

several glasses of water. The doctor once said, "Water is the best medicine"

He secretly went to the pharmacy to get some medicine for her and put it on her table. She was very

grateful to him. In a strange city, someone who was cared about her silently. C0ntent © 2024 (N/ô)velDrama.Org.

Although they couldn't be together, they could get along with each other day and night, which was also

the God's compensation for themselves.

The chief examiner of the Sea Rise Group called Grace and said, "Congratulations on your admission.

You can go to the human resources department at eight o'clock tomorrow."

Grace was so excited that she couldn't say a word. She was really admitted by the Se Rise Group.

While she was happy, she didn't forget her good friend, Nora. She wanted to tell her the good news as

soon as possible.

"I know you're the best," said Nora cheerfully.

'What a great position it is! Now it belongs to me!' she thought. This was what she had been dreaming

of for a long time.

She was in a good mood.

After dressing up, she went to work. It was the first day that he had to leave a good impression on her

colleagues.

She went to the human resources department of the company to check in. After a series of complicated

signatures and seals, she finally completed her job list. She could just take it to work.

As she walked, she inquired the person beside her. The huge company could really make her confused

because she couldn't find where she office was. She finally found a room and checked the number on

the job list.

She straightened her clothes, opened the mirror and looked at her hair. Everything was fine. Then she

knocked on the door and heard a voice, "Come in, please."

There was such a coincidence in the world. The man sitting at the desk in front of her was Hal. Would

she be his assistant in the future? Was he her boss?

Hal looked at Grace and said, "The chief examiner agreed to recruit a perfect senior assistant. It turns

out to be you. What a coincidence!"

Grace felt embarrassed, "I don't know you are my boss. No one told me."

Hal said to Grace, "They said that your discerning ability is very strong, beyond their imagination. It

depends on your performance in the future."

Then, Hal made a phone call and a beautiful woman came in. She was as beautiful as a fairy.

Hal said to the beautiful woman, "secretary, this is Grace, my assistant. Please lead her to get familiar

with the working environment and tell her about her future work."

It turned out that this beautiful lady was Hal's secretary, secretary Qin. They would be colleagues from

now on.

secretary Qin smiled and said, "Okay, Mr. Hal. I see. Don't worry."

The new environment, the new job and everything were new for Grace.

Hal knew the relationship between Grace and Nora. He left her with him for some personal reasons, so

that he could know what happened to Nora as soon as possible.

Susie and Howard were anxiously waiting for Hal to come back for lunch. They had agreed last night

that they would not see him until noon.

Howard said angrily, "If he doesn't go home now, maybe he goes to meet that woman again."

Since their daughter, Jasmine, spilled the beans last time, they knew that Hal had another woman they

didn't know. This time, Hal did a very good job of keeping the secret.

They always wanted to get something from their daughter, but every time they mentioned it, Jasmine

immediately changed the topic and kept silent.

Jasmine had been against the marriage of family business. She didn't want her future happiness to be

ruined by this kind of relationship, so she always supported her brother.

Jasmine investigated of Nora and met her on her birthday. She felt that Nora was really good, but

Jasmine didn't know that Nora had become a mother.

Might come true the old saying: 'Aged ginger is more pungent.'

Since they couldn't wait for Hal to come back, Susie and Howard came up with an idea. They wanted

to meet that woman. They wanted to see what kind of beauty she was and why she attracted Hal so

much.

After hearing the suggestion of Susie, Howard thought it was a good idea. They agreed at once. Then

Howard decided to call his son.

After the phone was connected, Hal said to his father, "I'm busy now. I can't go back to have dinner

with you. I'll go back after I finish my work."

Howard said, "Go home early tonight. I have something important to tell you. Don't come back too late."

Then he hung up the phone.

Hal was a filial child. He remembered his father's words that he would go home to have dinner with his

parents after work.

All parents in the world loved their children and always worried that their children would be hurt.

However, children would grow up and have their own thoughts and dreams.

Parents had experienced much more things than children, but when children went to the society, they

had to learn to be responsible and bear.

No matter rich or poor, it was everyone's right to pursue perfect and free love. Even parents had no

right to deprive children of their dream of happiness.

Children from ordinary families could pursue their own happiness, but a family like Howard couldn't.

Their children didn't belong to themselves, but to the whole family.

There were many marriages that were forced by their parents. In the eyes of the outside world, they

were happy. In fact, otherwise, their marriage was for others to see. Only they knew clearly whether

they were happy or not.

At first, a couple that was brave enough to break through the common sense of the family was not

allowed by the family. It was regarded as unfilially behavior and despised by the world.

However, in the end, they would often overcome many difficulties, share weal and woe, achieve the

best in marriage and career, and gain recognition from their families.

Hal was such a man. He wanted to be with the woman he liked without being bound by his family. He

wanted to try his best to get the support and approval of his family.
