“Hah! Just as | suspected!” Odette sneered, “That girl Melinda brought in is for Elijah.” Violette averted her gaze. It was absurd, but she couldn’t control the actions of others.
“Such bad luck! | was in such a good mood just now, but then they showed up.” Odette took a sip of her water, turning to Violette. “Violette, let's go to another restaurant.”
Violette shook her head. “We got here first.”
“| just don’t want you to feel uncomfortable.”
“Even if | do, we can’t leave.” Violette replied calmly. “We've already ordered. We can’t waste food.” “We could take it to go?”
“Odette, since when do you back down? If that girl did indeed get plastic surgery to look like me, it should be her who’s scared when she sees me, not the other way around.”
“Of course I’m not scared! Even if Elijah came up to me right now, | wouldn’t be afraid!” Odette bristled, but subconsciously touched her previously bruised cheek.
The waiter came over with their food and set it on the table. Violette picked up her fork, speared a piece of steak and placed it on her plate.
“My mom used to tell me all the time. Let the past be the past. Whether it’s people or events, once they pass, don’t think about them anymore. It saves you a lot of worries.”
Odette said, “Your mom was wise. But it’s easier said than done.”
“Indeed. My mom loved my dad so much. After their divorce, she never got over it. Not until my dad passed away, and his will revealed he left his company and all his core technologies to me. My mom cried her heart out. Then she finally moved on. She felt all her grievances were worth it.”
“Sometimes | just hate it. Why was your mom, such a good person, taken from us, while Alexa has yet to face retribution!” Odette gritted her teeth.
Violette lowered her gaze, murmuring, “Let's eat.” On the other side. Upon seeing the girl in the white dress, surprise flickered in Elijah’s eyes.
“Elijah, this is my cousin Nora,” Melinda introduced, “She just graduated from college. She’s job hunting and | thought it would be nice if she could work with me.”Property © of NôvelDrama.Org.
“Elijah, nice to meet you. My name is Nora.” Nora spoke softly. Elijah studied her face, taking in the uncanny resemblance. Could there really be two people in this world, with no blood relation, who looked so alike?
“Elijah, don’t you think Nora looks a bit like Violette?” Melinda noticed his gaze lingering on Nora and quickly explained, “She’s been studying abroad and | only met her two days ago.”
Nora blushed. “My cousin told me | look like Violette, but | didn’t believe her. When she showed me a picture, | realized we do look alike!”
Melinda laughed. “Only a bit. Nora’s features are more defined.” Nora turned even redder. “Elijah, would you consider hiring me at your company?” “What's your major?” Elijah asked.
“Business Administration,” Nora replied sweetly. “Elijah, if | can work for you, | will work hard and | won't let you down.”
Elijah replied indifferently, “l don’t need a secretary. But if ou gan’ find job Lean antioduce Foti to a friend's cofpany, as a favor to Melinda.” Please read the original content at .

Elijah replied, “Then arrange her in your department.”
Nora’s eyes welled up.
Under the table, Melinda squeezed her hand, telling Elijah, “Then I'll arrange her in my department.” Elijah said, “No need to report things like this to me.”
His cold response to Nora was something Melinda had not expected.

Instead of being attracted, he seemed repulsed.
