Lost in your love

"Iris, you called this number and now you're handing it to me?" Gail was uncomfortable as it already was! She wasn't planning on picking up the phone any more than Iris was! She continually glanced at the phone, her hand already quivering.

"Just pick it up, Gail! Don't you want the job? Imagine your salary after this! It'll all be worth it," Iris insisted. If that handsome man was truly interested in giving her a job, Gail wouldn't even have to worry about finding one after graduation. Seeing this as a third person, Iris saw how integral this was. This was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity!

No matter if he was sincere or not, a job opportunity was still an opportunity she should take.

"Hello?" Gail finally answered the phone. Her voice was quivering from the anxiety.

"Is this Gail? Why did you hang up?" Although he said it softly, Gail knew for a fact that he was already questioning her integrity. She chewed her bottom lip.

Well, she needed to be honest if she wanted this job, right?

"My friend said she wanted to see if the number was true and..." she stuttered. "I really am sorry!" She couldn't help but continue to think if this was all a dream.

It was not every day that she'd be asked to work for such a big company. Maybe it had just been a matter of formalities.

"Do you still think I gave you the fake number?" James thought back to the business card he had given her. It only had his phone number not his name or any other information. He thought he had given his secretary's card, only to have given his own.

James could blame nothing but his own negligence.

He didn't blame her for being distrustful. If he were given the same thing, he'd think the thing was fake at first sight.

"My friend was just curious. I really am sorry," she apologized. 'It's difficult to be around this guy,' she couldn't help but think.

"Are you free tomorrow?" He didn't insist on questioning her about the first phone call, which was a huge relief for Gail.
