My mystery lover novel (Richard and Amy) -
Chapter 78 Get a Job
Richard told Allison not to waste her time on him. However, Allison did not listen to him. She gave up her dancing career. She would be a total loser if Richard dumped her.
Allison leaned against Richard and pulled off her skirt, showing her fair chest and shoulders.
"Richard, you could have me. I'll give you everything. Please don't leave me. I love you. I really love you." Allison threw herself into Richard's arms. She tried to kiss him, but Richard stopped her.
"Allison, to me, you're like a goddess and I'd like to keep it that way." Richard stood up from the sofa and helped Allison get dressed.
"Richard, are you leaving me? My leg was broken for you, and I can't dance anymore. How could you leave me?" Allison refused to let Richard go.
Richard paused for a moment. "I'm sorry, Allison. I'll make up for it in other ways." Richard did not hesitate this time. It was not good for anyone.
With that, Richard left. He did not want to stay with Allison now. He was afraid that he would back down because of her tears.
"Richard, Richard, Richard! You can't do this to me!" Seeing Richard open the door and walk out, Allison shouted.
But the door closed. Allison held her hands tightly, and her long fingernails dug hard into her hands.
'Amy, I hate you. I hate you!'
While Amy looked through the job advertisements in her room. Since Allison also worked at the HD Group, Amy didn't want to stay there anymore. She needed to replace a job and made some money. Then she could move out.
Amy also checked the rents. Damn, everything in R City was so expensive. The rents were so high.
After checking her savings, Amy found that she could only afford the rent for a year.
Amy sent her resume to a few good companies.
She had been staring at the computer screen for the whole morning, and her eyes were tired. She also felt thirsty.
So she went out to get a glass of water. When she went back to the computer, a company had answered her email.
It was a translation company. They could offer Amy what she required. But she should translate a test first. If she passed, she could get the job right away.
Amy was overjoyed. She drank all the water and opened the document sent by the company. They wanted her to translate it into two languages, French and German. It was only about 10,000 words. Amy could finish it in an afternoon.
Amy then started to work. It was not difficult. There were a lot of technical terms, but she could handle it.
Amy got busy with the translation and didn't hear Robin calling her for lunch. So, Robin came to her room and called her by her side.
"Robin, I'll skip lunch. Could you wait until I'm done with my work?" Amy would shut out everything when she was working.
Robin couldn't say anything. Richard told him that Amy could do whatever she wanted at home, as long as she didn't go out.
By the time Amy finished translating, it was already three o'clock in the afternoon. She checked it for the last time and sent it over.
She was so hungry, and she was going to have lunch.
Amy finally felt better after having three bowls of porridge and two soups. She was starving.
Robin watched Amy eating and got much relieved. A good appetite was a blessing!
After having lunch, Amy decided to take a nap. Since they might need time to check her translation, She could sleep well without being disturbed.
*****
Richard called Robin and asked him what Amy had done today. Robin told him everything.
Hearing that Amy was calm, Richard felt distressed. He was so upset, yet she looked very happy. She didn't seem to be bothered at all.
"But I saw Mrs. Carter get very dark circles under her eyes in the morning," Robin added. He really felt bad for Amy.
"Oh, then let her have a good rest. I won't be back for the next few days. Take good care of her." After telling everyone Amy was his wife, Richard didn't know how to face Amy right now.
But Robin wondered why Richard didn't take care of his wife himself. Did Richard choose to stay with Allison?
However, Robin couldn't help. He could only take good care of Amy.
Another Email came and its sound woke Amy up. She yawned and opened her email box in a daze. Surprisingly, she got several emails.
Amy instantly went sober. She opened the emails and read it one by one.
Several companies replied to her and wanted to have an interview with her. The translation company also informed her that her translation had passed and asked her to sign the contract tomorrow. She could work at home.
That was wonderful! She took the offer and ignored other companies.
Amy was really happy to have a job. And the dark circles under her eyes almost disappeared after she slept for the whole afternoon.
The next morning, Amy was excited and woke up early. She was going to sign the contract. She would no longer be anxious about money for the time being.
She was dressed in a pink dress. It was very simple, but it looked good on her. She also combed her hair and tied it in a bun, showing her long and fair neck. She didn't want to wear that bracelet anymore. Every time she wore it, she discovered a shocking secret.
Now she looked confident and energetic, ready to go out in this simple outfit.
"Mrs. Carter, where are you going?" Robin asked when he saw that Amy was about to go out.
"Robin, I need to go out for something." Amy smiled at Robin and the latter was surprised by her brilliant smile.
"I can drive you there." Richard had told Robin to follow Amy all the time. He was worried that Amy would hurt herself for what had happened.
"It's okay, Robin. I'm fine now. I won't do anything stupid. Don't worry!" Amy knew that Robin was caring about her.
"Alright!" Robin nodded in hesitation. Amy looked perfectly fine, so he should not stop her."]
