Chapter 161
Bride of Mr.Billion
Bellaâs POV:
The next morning, I made an appointment with Joey to find a job together.
At noon, Joey and I were too tired to walk, so we sat on a row chair beside the street and ordered two cups of hot coffee.
Although it was winter now, the noon sun was still warm, and the warm coffee drove away the coldness inside of me.
Joey held the hot drink in her hand and complained, âItâs said that itâs hard to find a job now. I didnât expect it to be this difficult. Weâve been running around for a long time and only a few small companies are recruiting people.â
I took a sip of hot drink and said, âItâs said that there is an economy downturn now. All the big companies are retrenching talents. Only the small companies have high personnel flow rate, so they recruit a lot of people.â
âWhat should we do? Are we going to a small company?â Joey asked anxiously.
| smirked and replied, âItâs only two months until the Spring Festival. We can find a temporary job to do first.â
âIt is said that the spring economy next year may be better, and the turnover at the end of the year is relatively large. Next year, a big company may recruit according to the requirements, and there may be a chance at that time.â âOf course, if we can pass the accounting test successfully and get the certificate, it will be very beneficial for us to find a job. The salary will definitely be higher than before.â Joey nodded at first, and then suddenly stared at me and asked, âYour analysis this time is very professional. Who did you hear it from?â That familiar face immediately came to my mind.
What I said just now was what Herbert had told me.
I didnât want to be nagged by Joey, so I quickly said, âThese are the summary of my experience from looking for a job.â Joey did not continue to ask, but nodded immediately and said, âI think what you said is right, so we donât need to find a company. Anyway, itâs only more than a month before the Spring Festival. Why donât we sell cosmetics and high-end clothes? After all, the mall is very busy during this period of time, and we need a temporary job. I heard that if we donât rest during the holiday, our salary will be three times that of a company. Of course, we are young and beautiful, so we must get more points!â Joey was very confident in her appearance.
At this time, the crowd in the commercial street suddenly made a noise.
Joey and I looked at the crowd in confusion and saw everyone looking up at the huge TV screen on the outer wall of a grand building.
When I saw the picture on the screen, I was stunned.
At this moment, the huge screen showed a huge wedding photo. The man in the photo was wearing a black suit. The woman was wearing a white shoulder-length wedding dress with a crown studded 14:08 O re with diamonds on her head. Behind her was the sea. The brideâs veil floated in the wind, which was very beautiful.
Joey couldnât help standing up and said angrily, âWhat is this? Why does it have to be shown here like an advertisement? I really donât know if they are really married!â I stretched out my hand and pulled Joey to sit down. Although I felt very uncomfortable at the moment, I still squeezed out a smile. âWhatever way they want to get married in, itâs their business. All of this has nothing to do with us!â My tone was very calm, but only I knew how much I cared about it at the moment.
Joey was still very angry. âBella, they will definitely divorce!!â I reached out to pull Joeyâs arm and motioned for her to sit down. Joey looked around and saw that there were really many people looking at her. Her face was a little red, so she quickly sat down. However, there was a never-ending discussion among the crowd passing by.
âThe wedding photos on the screen are so beautiful. Is it an advertisement?â A girl pointed at the huge TV screen in front of her and praised.
Another girl said, âThatâs a real wedding photo? Itâs said that the president of the Wharton Group is getting married.â When the girl heard this, she immediately crossed her arms in front of her chest and said enviously, âJust because they want to get married, they rented such a big advertisement screen for a wedding photo? That bride is so blissful!â âThat man is a big boss. He wonât care about a little money!â
âThat means he loves his fiancee very much and wants the whole world to know their happy marriage!â
âIt has nothing to do with us. Letâs go!â Then, the girl behind dragged the girl in front away.
No matter how strong I was, no matter how I pretended to be indifferent, I couldnât lie to myself. At this moment, there seemed to be a big stone pressing on my heart. It was difficult for me to breathe.
Joey held me by the shoulder. I looked at her and hugged her.
The girlâs words just now were still lingering in my ears. Herbertâs feeling for Caroline was true love!
These words were like a sharp knife that pierced into my heart. I touched my chest and felt extremely uncomfortable. Joey didnât say anything. She just hugged me tightly. I was glad that I had a close friend to rely on. Otherwise, I would really break down. I thought I had recovered, but I didnât expectâ¦
Toverestimated my ability to heal my feelings. His name seemed to be deeply stuck in my heart and hard to forget. A few minutes later, Joey released me and said with a smile, âWhy donât we go back? Iâll cook delicious food for you. Letâs go back and make a strategy. Tomorrow, weâll mainly focus on high-end stores and shopping mall. Letâs work for more than a month to get some living expenses. How about that?â
I nodded and said, âWhy donât you go back first? I want to stay alone for a while.â Joey frowned and held my hand tightly. Knowing that she was worried about me, I tried hard to squeeze out a smile and said, âDonât worry, I wonât commit suicide. I am still young, and I still have a better life.â Joey nodded, gave some instructions, and then turned to leave. After Joey left, I sat on the row chair for a long time. My eyes always couldnât help looking at the huge wedding photo.
A few minutes later, there were other advertisements on the screen, and the wedding photos of Herbert and Caroline never appeared again. I slowly stood up and walked on the street in a daze. Ring, ring, ring⦠At this time, my cell phone rang. Who would it be?
