Hearing this, Avril turned to look at Joye.
No wonder why Joye had walked out of the office for a long time just now. She must have called a help for Wendy.
They’re all interns. But why could Wendy be so lucky to have Joye as a helper?
She felt bitter.
Avril did not say anything more, HR manager leaving with his colleagues.
In the end Avril fell on the chair with a pale face.
She looked stiff to pack her things. Then she left the office silently.
Soon everyone started to clock off and headed downstairs.
Putting away her documents, Wendy went downstairs too.
As she entered the elevator, she immediately became the focus.
She knew clearly that even if the post had been deleted, the discussion about her would never stop.
She now was truly happy that she would leave here after a few more later.
Wendy went downstairs to the bus stop.
She did not walk too far. Then a familiar voice called her name from behind.
She turned around to see Avril.
Avril walked up to her, “Are you happy now?”
“It’s none of my business.”
“Wendy, you’re such a despicable woman. You said you didn’t want to stay in this company. But in the end, at this crucial moment, you exposed my secret to kick me out of the company. You are not that innocent too. Don’t your conscience hurt to set me up like this?”
“Heh,” Wendy laughed helplessly, “If I tell you that I didn’t post your pictures, you would probably not believe me either, right?”
“Of course. Who else could know my relationship with Johnson in this company?”
Avril said and cried. “You don’t know how much I have paid for this job. Do you think I really want be a mistress of Johnson to ruin his family? I just have no choice.”
“My father had cancer. And I needed money to save his life. I knew Johnson through a friend. He said he could pay the surgical fees for me as long as I slept with him. I just did this for my father.”
“After the surgery, I thought I could leave him. But my father then needed more money to buy medicine. But my mother didn’t have a job. And I also have a younger brother who’s still in school. I am the only one who could make money in the whole family.”
“At that time, Johnson came to find me again. For money, I became his mistress. I know the salary in Charles Group is very high. So as long as I can work here, I would be able to raise my family without him one day. So can you know how much I need this job now?”
“I know your relationship with Bain. But in fact, I didn’t plan to expose it before. I don’t want to be a bad person. About the quarrel with Lily, I knew I had done wrong. But I had no other better choice. I had already sacrificed so much for this job, and had no way back. So I had to save my job.”
“Yes, I did do some wrong things to you for I am afraid that you will be my rival in this job. Plus, you also know my secret, so I felt unconfident before you. After all, being a mistress is a shame that will go with me for the whole life. But why do you do this to me? We in fact did not have any old grudges at each other.”
Wendy looked at Avril with sympathy.
She didn’t expect to hear such a sad story behind this.
Avril’s makeup was spoiled by her tears.
Wendy then took out a tissue from her bag to her.
“I did do that to you. If you still don’t believe me, then I have nothing to say to you. Bain is not lover. He’s just my very close brother. I still don’t want to stay in this company. So I would not bother to ruin your future. No matter what you think about me, I can tell you that I have nothing to be shamed of.”
Avril did not take the tissue. She only wiped off her tears with her hands. Then she gave a cold look to Wendy again. Then she turned to leave.
However, after listening to the whole story, Wendy felt displeased in her heart.
She somewhat felt very guilty too.
“Avril.” Wendy caught up with her.
Avril stopped to look back at her with tears.
“I will go to ask Bain if there are any job for you in his company. Would you want to go to his company?”
Avril was startled to ask, “Are you saying it seriously?”
“I will try for you. If he can not offer you a job, I will also think another way for you.”
“Why… do you help me? ”
“I don’t want to feel guilty for you all the time.”
“But you said you did not do anything to me.”
“I hate you to ruin other’s family. But after hearing your story, I can know why you chose to be Johnson’s mistress. And more importantly, you did that for supporting your whole family. So I felt a little guilty for misunderstanding you in a very bad way. Now, I want to help you.”
Avril choked with emotions. She looked at Wendy gratefully.
The bus’s coming, so Wendy said farewell to her. “I am leaving now. I’ll call you soon after I called Bain.”
Wendy then circled Avril to leave.
Avril hesitated for a second. Then she said, “Wendy, thank you.”
Wendy didn’t have time to make a reply to that. She jogged to catch up with the bus.
After getting off the bus, she went to the market to buy some vegetables.
She returning home, Henson’s car had already been downstairs.
Seeing her return, Henson got out of the car to carry her bags upstairs.
Her cell phone suddenly rang while they were eating.
It was Bain. “Bain.” Wendy had been waiting for his call for some time.
“Wendy. I was just in a meeting before. And I just saw your text. What help do you need?”
“Um, my friend needs a job. Can you gave her a job in your company?”
Bain was puzzled. “Your friend?”
“Yes.”
“Wendy, you’ve never asked me for help before. This friend seemed very important to you. Then tell me about your friend. Should I call it she or he?”
“She. She is the same age as me. Her family gets some trouble. So right now, she needs to get a stable job. I can promise you that as long as you can give her a chance, she’ll do her best in your conpany.”
“Alright, for your sake, I can offer her a job. Just ask her to come to my company tomorrow.”
Wendy felt touched in her heart, so she happily smiled. “Bain, thank you.”
“It’s not a big deal.”
“I will pay you back with a good meal later.”
“Alright, then I just wait for your big dinner.”
“OK.” Wendy smiled.
After hanging up, Wendy put the phone aside.
Henson’s displeased. “Why do you ask him for help instead of me?”
