Seeking help from her friends was no longer a viable option; no one would help her, the one who once looked down on them all. If she kept this up, she would only humiliate herself.
Left without a choice, Gabriella went to look for a job.
While she had the educational qualifications, Gabriella did not have any working experience. Moreover, she had no talents of her own.
As Landon's only daughter, Gabriella had always been the cherished daughter of the Wards. Everyone thought Gabriella would one day marry into a rich family; they never thought she would end up looking for a job of her own.
Gabriella had no practical experience, and she could not even grasp the theories. All she had was a piece of paper to show others her educational qualifications. Hence, her job search was met with failure, again and again.
It was until someone finally gave Gabriella a chance.
Gabriella received a call from a company, telling her she had passed the first test. After discussing details with the company, she could then go to work.
Gabriella was overjoyed. Never in her life would she have thought that there was a day she would be as thrilled as this to have found a job.
Without hesitation, Gabriella went to the company.
The one who greeted her was a pot-bellied, plump, and ugly man.
The moment Gabriella sat down, the man's eyes lit up and nearly drooled.
She was perplexed when she saw him. This isn't the one who interviewed me that day.
However, she still politely queried, “May I know if you'll be the interviewer today?”
The man froze before he hastily said, “That's right. I'm the interviewer for the day. However, you seemed quite well. You've passed. You can come to work starting tomorrow.”
“Really?”
Gabriella was delighted to hear his words.
Although she was uncomfortable with the way the man was staring at her, his words were pleasant to Gabriella's ears.
When the man saw how excited she was, he, too, became excited.
“It seems like this job is important to you,” the man hummed.
“That's right. It's very important to me,” Gabriella said as she beamed.
