Chapter 67 Workplace Her New Start (II)
Ophelia took a bow to her new colleagues and smiled, “Hello, my name is Ophelia Lowe. I suppose I am older than most of you. I am not so talented in designing as Mr. Conduibh said. Although I have several years working experience, I haven’t designed anything for four years because of some accidents. I don’t know whether I can catch up even I am passionate. Please help me in the future.”
People burst out applauding again after her introduction.
Seeing Ophelia was pretty and modest, some males admired her from the bottom of their heart. One of them pluck up the courage and asked, “Ophelia, do you have a boyfriend?” ConTEent bel0ngs to Nôv(e)lD/rama(.)Org .
Ophelia simply smiled and answered, “Is this question related to our work?”
The others all laughed.
The male colleague continued, “Ophelia, you look so pretty. We’re lucky to have you in the design department. Even we can’t pursue you. It really inspires us when see a beauty drawing the script.”
All girls stared at him and complained, “Issac, what are you talking about?”
Issac replied, “You should learn from the goddess. She is not only beautiful, but also good-mannered.”
“Issac, you are dead after we are off duty.” The other girls teased.
Tassach clapped to get their attention and said, “Everybody, listen up. Ophelia is my old classmate. You must treat her nicely.”
“Take it easy, manager. We will never find our goddess trouble. Can we ask when will you guys get married. Don’t forget to serve the whole company a feast.” Issac said.
Tassach glanced at him and said, “I remember you haven’t handed it the script yet. When will you give it to me?”
Issac replied, “Sorry, Mr. Conduibh, I shouldn’t ask about your private things.”
Tassach behaved like an evil man and said, “Hand in the script this afternoon. If it doesn’t pass, well…”
Issac suddenly got upset and turned to look at Ophelia for help, “Goddess, please pity me and ask for Mr. Conduibh’s mercy.”
Ophelia smiled and found the design department was really lively.
She turned around and said to Tassach, “Mr. Conduibh, maybe you can go to work now. I will also start working.”
Tassach nodded, reminded the others of the working details, and finally left.
When the big boss left, people in the designing department all gathered up and asked, “Ophelia, what’s your relation with Mr. Conduibh? His girlfriend?”
Ophelia showed them the diamond ring on her finger and answered, “I have already married. We’re only old friends. I am kind of relying on him to get in this company. Please don’t mind it.”
It was rare for people to directly mention he was relying on others to get the job. All people were astonished and said, “Ophelia, you’re here because of your talent. If you can’t do this job, he will simply arrange an official post with very little to do. That thing will never happen in the design department”
The other man asked, “I remember Mr. Conduibh wants to hire an assistant. Why are you in the designment department?”
“Yes, Mr. Conduibh said he wanted me to be his assistant and your department was full. However, then he found a proper person to be his assistant and arranged me in the design deparment.” Ophelia smiled politely.
“Well, welcome. You’re really beautiful and it’s an honour for us to have you.”
“Issac, don’t you think it’s an honour to have us?” The other girls asked.
“Well, I am not, but if you think that’s true, then you’re not that fool.” Issac shook his head and said.
“Stop bothering your goddess. She already gets married.”
Issac covered his chest and said sadly, “Goddess, why haven’t met you years before? In that way, maybe I can end my bachelor’s life.”
The others all burst out laughing.
Ophelia also smiled and found it relaxed to work in such a happy department.
Soon it became six o’clock in the afternoon and it was time for her to be off duty.
She had just got downstairs when a car drove in front of her. She was wondering whether someone misrecognized her when the car window rolled down and Tassach’s head went out.
“Ophelia, get on, I can drive you home.” Tassach said gently.
Ophelia wanted to refuse him at first but Tassach continued, “I know you don’t drive your car to the company. Don’t worry. I just want to give you a ride.”
Ophelia found it was really hard to refuse him. She got on and tied the safety belt, saying, “Thank you for giving me a ride, Mr. Conduibh.”
“Ophelia, we’re already off duty. Don’t be so polite.” Tassach started the car.
Ophelia smiled and also changed his title, “Tassach, I haven’t seen you leave the office. Why did you get down?”
“I left the company around four o’clock. A client came to have a meet. Then I drove back and accidentally met you.”
“Yes, it is.”
Tassach stopped when the traffic light was red and asked, “How is your first day in the design department?”
