The Ice-Cold Executive Gets A Wife Novel - Chapter 76
Chapter 76: Someone She Knew
Not only Carl but also David and Laura were surprised.
Carl couldn’t believe it. “You passed the interview? At NRTE?”
Sophia nodded affirmatively. “Yes, they told me I passed after the interview, and I even had a tour around their office.”
Laura had been a housewife for a long time and didn’t quite understand life at work. Her husband Carl claimed that Sophia was pregnant and probably wouldn’t pass the interview, so she had specially prepared this sumptuous lunch to comfort Sophia.
Of course, being able to pass the interview was the best thing. She was proud of her daughter.
She was the first to cheer up. “Looks like we were worrying for nothing. Everything turned out well, didn’t it? Look at me. I was afraid that you would be sad if you did not pass the interview. After making such a lavish lunch, I still had to lie to help you recover.”
Sophia didn’t know whether to laugh or cry. “It wasn’t a waste. Just treat it as a celebration of me passing the interview.”
Compared to Laura’s happiness, David was a little curious. “That’s amazing, Sis! How did you do it? You passed on the spot!”
It was a happy thing to share her joy with her family. Sophia happily told them the details of her interview, but she didn’t mention arguing with the interviewer.
Carl was happy that his daughter was so good and that she was recognized by the head of such a big company, but he still insisted that Sophia go to his company. “It’s a joy, but you don’t have to go to work even if you passed the interview.”
Sophia did not quite understand. “Why not? It’s NRTE, the best company in the entire finance industry.”
Carl didn’t deny NRTE’s achievements, but he still thought it was better for Sophia to work in his company.
“NRTE’s headquarters is on Wall Street. It’s an hour’s drive from home. It’s not safe.”
“I know, I’ve thought about it, but don’t worry, Dad. I’ll move to Wall Street tonight. It won’t be unsafe. ”
The smile on Laura’s face gradually disappeared. “Sophia, you’re moving to Wall Street?
Tonight?”
Seeing her mother’s worried look, Sophia felt a little apologetic. “I know it’s a little sudden. I was going to come back and discuss moving there in a few days with you guys, but I didn’t expect to be hired by NRTE on the spot. They told me to go to work tomorrow, so I’m moving out tonight.”
Carl frowned. “No, I disagree!”
“But I have to go to work tomorrow. I don’t want to get up early.”
“Not only do I not agree with you moving to Wall Street, but I also don’t agree with you working at NRTE! You’re staying at home tonight, and you’re not going anywhere!”
Sophia was never a daughter who allowed her parents to control her. She fell silent and resisted the idea of throwing a tantrum with her father.
Her father was only worried about her safety, not trying to control her.
David advised, “Don’t be angry, Daddy. It’s not like you don’t know that Sophia likes to go on a wild goose chase. If she sees something she likes, she will have to take it. The more you are angry at her, the more stubborn she becomes.”
She got her bad temper from her father.
Sophia was not convinced. “How am I being stubborn?”
David said, “Well, why do you have to go to NRTE? Isn’t it better to go to Dad’s company?”
David disagreed with Sophia’s decision to move out of the house for work.
If she were healthy, they would not be so worried. The thing was that she was pregnant. What if she moved out and stayed alone without anyone watching her and got into an accident?
Sophia retorted, “Of course not. Daddy doesn’t run a finance company. What am I going to do? Sweep the floor?”
Carl snarled, “Did all your years of school go to waste? Can’t you do some management tasks?”
Sophia’s temper flared up. She said without care, “Whatever it is, I will work at NRTE. None of you can stop me.”
Carl could not persuade her, so he could only emphasize powerlessly, “You’re pregnant!
Pregnant!”
“I know,” Sophia said matter-of-factly. “The CEO of NRTE didn’t reject me because I’m pregnant. Dad, you don’t have to worry about it.’
Carl was speechless. After a long time, he took out his phone and mumbled, “I want to see who the CEO is!”
It was too irresponsible to let a pregnant woman go to work alone so far away!
Looking at the text on the phone, Carl subconsciously read it out, “Sebastian Harris? Only twenty-four years old? So young?”
David felt that the name sounded a little familiar, so he went over to take a look.
Looking at the picture of the man on the phone screen, he finally recalled. “Isn’t this Sophia’s roommate’s brother? He sent Sophia to the door before. I met him once. Is he the CEO of NRTE?”
Carl mocked, “No wonder you passed the interview. He’s someone you know.”
Sophia was not convinced. “I passed the interview with my capabilities!”
Laura, who had been silent, stopped Carl. She secretly winked at him and said, “Let Sophia go. “.
