Chapter 276
Pearl looked at the lady before her, who was smiling sweetly. She was undeniably charming, the type that could easily become anyone’s crush.
Pearl couldn’t help but be reminded of someone she had never met but couldn’t forget-Richard’s first love, Jenny Sullivan. This lady bore a striking resemblance to her.
Pearl recalled the interview with the lady named Katie, who also shared a similar appearance.
The woman began to speak, and Richard’s breathing quickened.
“Richard, what’s wrong?” Pearl could see that something was wrong, so she asked.
“I’m fine.” Richard shook his head gently while absentmindedly fl*pping through the resume on the desk. The name “Jenny Boucher” jumped out at him, and it seemed to pierce his eyes.
What a peculiar coincidence. They shared not only a physical resemblance but also had identical names.
Pearl saw the name, and her heart clenched, making it hard for her to breathe. “Are we hiring her?”
Richard noticed that Jenny had a bachelor’s degree in design and had won numerous international awards, so he nodded. Given her design background and accomplishments, she stands out among the other candidates. It makes sense to offer her the position.”
Although Richard made sense, Pearl’s heart ached. “It’s too early to make a decision. We should let her work here for a while and evaluate her performance.”
Richard regarded her curiously. “But didn’t we decide to select a director from the new recruits?”
“We should let her intern first, or it might not sit well with the others.”
Pearl’s suggestion was reasonable, and Richard didn’t push the matter further. He allowed the secretary to escort the candidates away.
As per Waldorf Enterprises’ policy, executives personally mentored interns, and as the vice president, Pearl would be responsible for mentoring Jenny.
“Hello, Miss Pearl. I’m Jenny Boucher, and I graduated from the same university as you. You’re my senior.”
Jenny was approachable and smiled sweetly. It was difficult to hate her, but Pearl just couldn’t grow fond of her because of
that face of hers.
“What would you like to learn? I’m not highly educated, so I might not be the best mentor.”
Jenny looked shocked. “When I was in university, your reputation was well-known. Even though you graduated two years ahead of me, people still talk about you.”
Pearl brushed off the flattery and offered a polite smile before leading Jenny to her desk
“Miss Pearl, can I call you Pea?”
Pearl nodded. “Of course. I’m here to guide you, so feel free to reach out if you have any questions.”
“Thank you. I do have a question.”
“Yes?”
“Can you get me a cup of coffee please? I don’t know where the coffee shop is.”
Was she trying to order Pearl around?
Pearl frowned and pointed at the coffee machine not too far away. “That machine is available for everyone to use. You can make your own coffee if you’d like. If that seems too troublesome, there are pre-packaged options.”
“I can’t stand those types of coffee, Pea Could you help me, please? I have a preference for Starbucks lattes. You’re such a kind

person, you wouldn’t refuse, would you?”
