Chapter 1619 Are You Working Here as Well?
Ellen knew that Selena was pretending not to know her because she didn’t deserve to work here, and she understood Selena and her arrogance. Since that was the case, she would just pretend not to know her as well!
Under Sienna’s careful guidance, she roughly grasped the work that had to be done. Around 10.30AM., Sienna picked up a document and said, “Someone passed this here. Please pass it on to Mr. Jonas’ assistant on the twelfth floor.”
Ellen gave her a nod. “Okay!” Twelfth floor, Mr. Jonas’ assistant, she repeatedly chanted in her head to remember the details, held the document to her chest, and briskly walked toward the elevators.
As she had been learning a lot this morning, her mind was a little fuzzy right now. While she was thinking about something, she saw that the doors of an elevator were about to close and dashed in quickly. All of a sudden, she knocked into a man in the lift.
The documents in her arms fell to the floor with a flap and scattered everywhere.
What?!
She was taken aback by her clumsiness and immediately apologized to the man as she bent down to pick up the document papers because they were simply too important to her.
At the same time, the man next to her crouched down and helped her to pick up the papers with his slender fingers.
When she noticed the white silk, blue sapphire cufflinks, and an expensive black watch, she felt something amiss and lifted her head abruptly, and the sight that awaited her stunned her.
Goodness! It’s him? Isn’t he that young man who helped me at the golf course the last time?
Jared recognized her as well, and his brilliant eyes narrowed. “It’s you?”
“You’re… Working here as well?” Happiness washed over her. She didn’t expect to run into someone she had met before, so she was especially friendly to him.
At first, he was stunned by the turn of events, but a grin appeared on his face a second later. “Yes, I’m working here as well.”
“Which level is your office?”
“Eighteenth floor.” Even Jared didn’t know why he fibbed because the eighteenth floor was the finance department.
“My name is Ellen Reiss. What’s your name?”
He thought of it for a second before he decided to use his mother’s last name. “My name is Jared Tillman.”
Ellen flashed him a brilliant smile. “Hi, nice to meet you.”
He was slightly taken aback by her grin and felt a little sense of familiarity with this girl in his chest. Despite this being only the second time that they had met, she made his heart beat slightly out of pace like she was someone he had known for a long time.
“Nice to meet you,” he greeted in return.
Only then did she remember that she wanted to go to the twelfth floor and hurriedly pressed the button. She smiled at the hunk next to her awkwardly as her face inexplicably turned crimson.
Gosh, this man is gorgeous!
He was the most good-looking of all the men she had met since she was young. From him, she could feel a very comfortable and assuring presence that was gentle and strong at the same time. Since he’s working here, will I get to see him all the time after this? Jared Tillman… That’s a lovely name!
Ding!
They reached the twelfth floor, and she gave him another smile. “I’ve arrived. See you!”
“Bye.” He stuffed one hand into his trousers pocket and nodded at her slightly. Yet, when the elevator doors closed, Ellen’s bright smile still remained in his mind.
He could feel his heart was still racing, so he reached out and pressed his chest gently with his palm. Only then did his heartbeat gradually return to normal.
What’s happening? he asked himself in bewilderment.
After Ellen dropped off the document and wanted to press the elevator button again, she pressed the button for the elevator that she had arrived in. A kind-hearted staff reminded her politely, “Miss, you can’t use that elevator.”
“Why?”
“Don’t you know that that’s our president’s private elevator? It’s not for other employees to use.”
“Oh, really?” She was surprised as she thought, But I just used it earlier and ran into another guy inside!
“Thank you,” she said to the female employee and didn’t dare to push the button again.
At the finance department, Selena had a few male colleagues around her, taking turns to guide her. She was doing exceedingly well, especially with her pretty face. As long as she flirted a little, a guy would help her finish her job.
Then, she heard that an assistant had a document that needed to be sent to the president’s office and immediately scurried over to intercept the task, “Laura, let me run this errand for you! I can use this chance to familiarize myself with the company.”
