Mellisa clearly called out my name, indicating that she had at least known something.
In this case, I wouldn't avoid her.
There was no way for me to escape.
I held my cell phone tightly and replied calmly, "Okay, name a place."
"I'll send the location to you."
Melissa finished her words and hung up the phone.
In less than a minute, I received her text indicating where we were going to meet.
It was a lounge bar on the second floor of a hotel.
I got up and looked at Nancy, "Sorry, I may be quite occupied in the next few days. As for the matters of the studio..."
"Leave them to me. I can handle these trivial matters." Nancy interrupted me and picked up a resume before adding, "Recently, someone working in Towering High previously applies for our vacancy. Do you know her?"
After she finished speaking, I took a look at the resume.
I couldn't help laughing after seeing the photo without reading the name.
"Paulina Carter."
After I said this name, I stared at the name on the resume. It was indeed her.
"Look at what she wrote at the bottom of her resume."
Hearing Nancy's reminder, I looked down below the resume.
It turned out that at the bottom of her resume, Paulina left a message, which read, "Two goddesses, I worship you very much!"
"Puff!"
I couldn't help but laugh.
Because of the news and Melissa's call just now, I was distressed. At this moment, because of Paulina's message, I was in a good mood.
I quietly put Paulina's resume on the table, looked at Nancy, and put my hands in front of my chest, saying, "Let's recruit her. What do you think, Goddess Nancy?"
"Since Goddess Janetta has spoken up for her, I surely have to recruit her."
After saying that, Nancy picked up the phone newly installed in the studio and began to make a phone call to Paulina.
By the time I took my bag and went out, the phone had been connected. I heard Nancy said to the one over the phone in a business-like tone, "Hello, this is Swallowtail Butterfly Studio. Excuse me, is that Paulina speaking?"
Hearing what she said, I couldn't help but smile and close the door.
Paulina was one of the few colleagues getting along with me in Glorious Seth Design back then. Of course, if she could work with us, I would be happy.
I took a taxi and soon arrived at the restaurant where the lounge bar Melissa had mentioned.
I went up to the second floor and looked around the lounge bar. Seeing that Melissa hadn't come yet, I found a table in the corner and sat down.
I ordered myself a cup of coffee.
About half an hour later, Melissa arrived.
It was cold today. So Melissa wore a knitted long dress with a thick and dark- colored overcoat outside. Tying up her long hair behind her head, she walked in with an expensive Birkin Bag in her hands.
On the way in, a few rich ladies sitting in the restaurant all looked over at Melissa attentively.
Most of these women did not have a job and were not sensitive to other things. However, they were quite sensitive to these luxury goods.
Upon seeing that the bag was a good thing, everyone looked at it.
Of course, Melissa sensed the gazes around her. She raised her chin, proudly passed through the crowd, and finally sat down in front of me.
All the seats inside this restaurant were sofas.
She put the bag beside her and ordered a pot of fruit tea.
After the waiter left, she looked at me in anger right away. "Charlotte Archer, why are people from the Archer Family so haunting! How long are you going to pester my son?"
