-We are families, you don’t have to thank me, -Zain touched Alice’s head and rubbed it gently, -You are the sister I had a hard time getting back, I would do anything for you.
Megan, who was sitting in the passenger seat, was also very touched by these words and even wanted to shed a tear.
Megan also wanted a brother who would treat her so well, but unfortunately she was not so lucky, she only had a brother who kept asking her for money.
The fate of each turned out differently.
Megan was a little curious, -Miss Alice, you just said you have thought of a solution, may I ask what it is?
Actually, Alice has come up with a solution after a good night’s sleep.
Alice nodded and talked a little about her thought process, -Since Kennedy works for this company, I can only think of one way to become an employee of this company as well.
If she presented herself to Kennedy as an employee of the company, Kennedy should not see her as an outsider.
Alice smiled at this idea, which had always seemed good to her.
-Are you going to work for this company? -Megan was puzzled, but quickly responded.
-You’re right, and you do have what it takes to join this company. The Carlos family is involved in a variety of industries, but their main source of assets is design, and design is your forte.
Alice smiled softly and nodded.
God had closed a door for her, but he had opened a window.
-Now that you’ve made up your mind, you’ll probably do a lot of things on your own next, do you plan to rent a house here long term?
Zain had thought about helping his sister buy an apartment here directly, but Alice had wanted to be financially independent when she was in the country before, so she had financed the apartment herself, and today, Zain was not in a position to decide many things for her.
-Yes, you don’t have to help me buy a house, I’ll just rent a place to live here. I saw an apartment on the Facebook rental group yesterday, so I’m going to check with the landlord today.
-Good.
-Since you’ve taken care of everything, we’ll buy the tickets and go back home,” Zain nodded.
Megan, who was standing next to him, was surprised, -So soon? Mr. Zain, aren’t we staying here for a few more days to keep Miss Alice company?
Stay?
Zain glanced at Alice at that moment and felt there was no need for him and Megan to stay.
Alice already had a purpose, she knew what she had to do next, and she would take good care of herself.
What really concerned Zain was what was going on at home.
Without waiting for Zain to say anything, Alice said, -Yes, you guys buy your tickets and come back early.
-All right then, I’ll book my tickets home now. Miss Alice, can you really handle everything on your own? Do you want me to hire someone to help you here? Or maybe call Yanis to come?
-No, I’m fine on my own,” Alice shook her head.
Alice was no longer the little girl to take care of. Besides, her English wasn’t bad and she was perfectly capable of living alone abroad.
-The company and Jack, I’m counting on you to look after them.
In the afternoon, Megan and Zain left for the airport and Alice only saw them as far as the hotel door. Once they left, Alice also hailed a cab and went to see the place she had booked online.
She had only chosen the house the night before and it wasn’t far from the Carlos Group building, so Alice wasn’t carrying much, so she signed the contract with the owner and settled in with her suitcase.
The house was well equipped and she only needed a few things for her daily life.
So Alice cleaned her new house and went to the supermarket to buy some essentials.
After cleaning everything, Alice was already tired and sat down to rest for a while.
By now she was two months pregnant and, although her belly was still quite unnoticeable, if she took off her clothes she could see that her belly was bulging.
After resting for a while, Alice suddenly remembered something, so she turned on her computer and went online to look up the Carlos family’s company in this city.
Alice should be able to easily find the position she was looking for, as multinational companies of this type usually hire year-round.
Sure enough, on their website there was a portal to submit a resume.
It had been a long time since Alice had filled out a resume and some of the information was even unfamiliar to her. However, Alice had some experience, so she was able to familiarize herself with the process quickly. Once her resume was submitted, she closed the website.
Although Kennedy didn’t know her now, Alice would have the opportunity to contact Kennedy when she joined the company.
But…
Alice suddenly thought of a nagging problem.
What if Kennedy saw her and thought she had gone there on purpose to harass him? After all, Alice had tugged at his hand like a madwoman yesterday and told him to come back to her.
Alice was sure that if a stranger did that to herself, she would get a bad impression of the person.
It was at that moment that Alice regretted her impulsive behavior yesterday.
If she had exercised a little restraint and found out what was going on, none of this would have happened.
What if Kennedy thought Alice was stalking him?
Alice sighed.
It didn’t matter, there would always be a solution, it was better not to think about it so much now.
Zain and Megan soon returned home and Yanis got the news that Alice had stayed abroad and quickly called her.
-Alice, I heard about your situation from Megan’s secretary, are you really going to stay there alone? Do you need me to come and stay with you? It’s very hard for you to live alone now that you are pregnant.
Yanis’ words touched Alice’s heart and she shook her head, -Thank you, but I am an adult and I can take care of myself. Besides, I’m only two months pregnant and it’s not a big burden.
-But I’m still worried about you, I used to say I was with you all the time, and now suddenly you live alone and I’m very restless. No, I…
-Yanis,” Alice sighed, calling her by name, “the company is now depending on you to run it, and if you run away, who will take care of the company’s affairs?
-But I…” said Yanis.
-If I run into any difficulties in life, I’ll call you again, okay?
Yanis was still a little hesitant and Alice reassured her a little more before Yanis reluctantly agreed to her request.
-All right then, since you insist so much, I won’t go. But you should take care of yourself, I’m not sure about the weather there, but if it’s cold, you should bring more clothes, it will be Christmas soon.
Christmas?
Alice had thought that this year she could get together as a family for Christmas.
Little did she know that not only would the three of them not be reunited, but they would be far apart.
