Chapter 396 Looking For My Wife
Rachel didn't answer him. Biting her lip, she retorted,"Why are you asking me so many questions?
Even if you wanted to make friends with me and I'm not interested, will you force me to make friends
with you?" Content is © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.
Marlon stood up. Seeing Rachel's bedroom door open, he walked in. Then he spotted the notebook on
the table and picked it up.
"What are you talking about? Of course I won't force you to be friends with me," he yelled from inside
the bedroom as Rachel followed him.
Rachel frowned at Marlon who was meddling with her stuff without her permission. Unable to control
her anger anymore, she shouted,"Stop touching my stuff! We just met! I don't know you well and you
don't know me!"
With that, she snatched the notebook from his hands and placed it on the table.
"You're looking for a job, aren't you? Do you need any help?" Marlon asked, looking at her with a smile.
Seeing that what she had written on the notebook were all design company names or sales positions,
he guessed that she must have experience in that field.
"…"
Before Rachel could say no, he continued,"Two among the five companies you listed there belong to
my family, and the rest belong to the Tang family. You saw that I was kicked out from a car by a woman
the other day. That woman was from the Tang family. Do you think she will be a better employer than
me?"
Marlon said, taking out a business card from his pocket and signed his name on it. "Take this. The day
after tomorrow, our company will hold a public interview. No one will stop you from entering the office
building if you show it to them.
If I'm in a good mood that day, you may pass the interview without much fuss."
With that, Marlon left Rachel's apartment.
Looking at the business card, Rachel shook her head, and then placed it on the table.
The next day, Rachel went to the offices of the companies she had filtered the night before. She went
to each office for a walk-in interview. However, when the interviewers found out that she was from out
of town and with only an ordinary university graduate, they told her to wait for further notice at home.
Her resume only showed very little of her working experience, so they thought that she was just a
novice, coming off as lacking work experience. Also, she wasn't a local, therefore, the companies were
concerned that she wouldn't stay long. They were reluctant to hire her.
After a long day, back at the apartment, Rachel thought of the business card on the table.
She lay on the bed, pondering for a long time before decided to go to check out Marlon's company for
an interview.
She stuffed the card into her bag, then walked into the kitchen to boil water and prepare instant
noodles.
She picked up an apple from the table and waited at the door for the water to boil with her cellphone in
her hand.
As she browsed through the news on her cell phone, she was stunned by a striking news title.
The apple in her hand dropped onto the floor. She gazed at her photo on the front page and clicked the
link open with her trembling finger.
Notice For My Missing Wife...
This notice had only been shown in the local news of H City, but now, it could be found throughout the
internet and had been edited into a sentimental love story with her as the heroine.
There were tens of thousands of comments below the notice.
Someone said,"The hero loves his wife so much. How could that woman be so cold blooded? She left
without even considering her kids!"
Another one said,"Come on! Let's help look for his wife. The hero said he would give 500000 in cash to
the person who provides any leads, and 10 million if someone could actually pinpoint her location."
The third one followed,"I have decided to spend all my time to look for his wife from today. If I find her, I
could live comfortably for the rest of my life."
Rachel switched off the screen and took a deep breath. She walked to the mirror and looked at herself.
The woman in the mirror was quite similar to the one in the photo.
She had underestimated Hiram. She never expected that he would think of such a way.
Nowadays, almost everyone would know when a news was released online and became viral. Even if
she did not get recognized for a short while, Hiram would find her soon.
'No, I can't sit still. I should find a way to make myself unrecognizable, ' she thought to herself.
The next morning, Rachel got up early. She sat in front of the mirror, applying various kinds of make-up
on her face. She was sure that after putting on the makeup, no one would recognize her.
However, after trying many times, there was no significant difference from her original look. She
suddenly thought of the matchmaker in a TV series. The big mole on the matchmaker's face was very
impressive. Rachel thought it might be a good idea to put a mole on her own face.
She held up the waterproof eyeliner and added a black mole under her left eye. She looked in the
mirror again, and felt satisfied with the change.
After that, she took her bag and went out.
In order to match the position she was applying for, she didn't bring any luxury bag or watch.
Although the Xi Group didn't look as brilliant as the Streams Company, it was good enough as a
second or third class company.
After entering the office building, Rachel was a little surprised to see so many job applicants. Although
North Sea City was small, there were a lot of people who came here. In addition to looking for a job,
many of them were attracted by the beautiful scenery of this small city.
She put the business card Marlon had given her in her bag, and then walked towards the office for the
interview.
Many people were waiting in the corridor. One of the staff would call out to someone when it was his or
her turn.
Rachel joined them and waited outside the office.
It didn't take long before she saw Marlon coming down the stairs. He walked among the interviewees,
as if he was looking for someone. It looked like he couldn't find the one he was looking for, so he
scratched his head and turned to leave. He had just walked two steps when he turned around again,
and this time he saw Rachel.
"It's only been two days since I last saw you. What happened to your face? Is it because you're not
used to the climate here?" Marlon asked when he found that the woman with a large mole was Rachel.
There was a very striking black mole just under her left eye.
Rachel felt a little uneasy under his gaze. She said, touching her face,"Yes. I haven't been feeling well
lately. I get speckles and the moles on my face whenever I'm not used to the climate."
Marlon laughed. Did she take him for an idiot?
"Come on. It's not a big deal. After all, the most important thing in the interview is you and your abilities
and not your appearance. You can enter the office with me once the current interviewee is done,"
Marlon said, straightening his blue suit. He brushed his hair with his hand and then walked towards the
office.
Rachel walked behind following him, covering her face with her hands.
She heard people talking about her,"Oh my God! How ugly that woman is! If I were her, I would have
had the black mole removed before coming here."
"Yes. The interviewers might be uncomfortable looking at the mole.
"Do you think she will get hired? I don't think she has any chance. What we are applying for is a sales
position. That means we'll often visit customers. If those customers don't want to cooperate with our
company because of this ugly woman, it will be a huge loss for the company."
"You may be wrong. Didn't you see? She was brought into the office by that man just now. Maybe she
has a special relationship with the management team of this company. Who knows?"
Hearing the gossip, Rachel took a deep breath. She stopped at the office door with Marlon, covering
her face with her hands and lowering her head.
After a short while, the interviewee who was in the office, came out.
Marlon opened the door and walked into the office.
Rachel followed close behind.
