Sweet Sorrow

Chapter 133 An Appointment

She was worried that Jacob might refuse her plan, so she didn't tell him that a brokerage company had come to her. On the appointed day, she didn't mention to the servants about the appointment, and just took the driver's car to leave home.

She arrived at the coffee shop with an uneasy mood along the way. Nicole stood at the door of the shop and sent a message to the agent.

"Hello, are you Nicole Du?"

Suddenly, a male voice sounded.

Nicole stopped sending the message. She looked up and saw a middle-aged man wearing a pair of black rimmed glasses.

"You are..." Nicole frowned and looked at the man, guessing who he was.

The man reached out his hand and introduced himself, "my name is Alex. I've contacted you before. I'm from Awake-Morning Agency."

Nicole was a little surprised as her guess was proved, "it's you. How did you recognize me?" This content © Nôv/elDr(a)m/a.Org.

Alex pushed the glasses frame and laughed boldly. "There are pictures on your Facebook. I recognized you as soon as I saw you just now."

Talking about those pictures, Nicole smiled sheepishly.

In order to attract fans, she had taken many pictures of her and the cakes. Those photos were processed and processed, but they were actually better looking than herself.

"That's all fake pictures. You can't believe it." Nicole bit her lips and felt very shy.

"No," Alex said straightforward. "You are also beautiful in fact. If those pictures are fake, can I still recognize you?"

Nicole didn't know what to say, but only smiled shyly.

Alex pushed the door of the cafe open, made a gesture of welcome and said to Nicole, "Miss Du, let's sit down and have a talk."

"Okay."

As the conversation went on, Nicole put down her guard, no longer worried that this was a lie, and she had a nice chat with Alex.

From the introduction by Alex, she knew a lot of things about Awake-Morning Agency, such as the Internet celebrities who had signed contracts with Awake-Morning Agency and all the photos were shot by the company's team, and the company's top-notch live streaming was also finished in the studio's shed.

In the company's operation, the so-called Internet celebrity was not just the entertainment that no one had organized, but a professional and flowing financial operation mode.

The Internet red belonged to different types, including storytelling, make-up, comics, amusements, and the type belonged to Nicole was about food.

She would be responsible for updating food videos and teaching people how to cook delicious food or share experience to attract foodies.

Alex also talked about salary with Nicole.

In the beginning of the contract, the company would offer a set salary to employees, including 3000 to 8000 dollars. When the company began to accept advertising income and increase the income by 30 to

70%, the company would take the large salary while the employees take small ones.

'After all, our company and our team are going to spend money in promotion and package for you. The money we used at the beginning is free to spend on you, so you can only have the bonus after you get famous, which is very reasonable. "

Nicole didn't think so much. In her eyes, thousands of dollars a month was enough.

So after she heard what Alex had said, she was ready to sign the contract.

"As you sign the contract, you should come to the company to sign the contract. You should bring your ID card and one decimeter photo." Alex reached out his hand again and said, "I hope we can cooperate well. And you will be famous as well!"

Hearing his blueprint, Nicole was excited. She couldn't help smiling sweetly. She clasped the hands of Alex and nodded, "I hope we have a pleasant cooperation."

After saying goodbye to Alex, Nicole was in a good mood. She would have shouted out her joy if she hadn't been on the busy street.

Beyond happy, Although she didn't like shopping, she also went into the mall. She bought some clothes and jewelry for herself, her family, and servants, and even bought a shirt for Jacob.

The moment she swiped the card, Nicole regretted.

The shirt of Jacob was more expensive than all the clothes and shoes she bought.

But she had bought it and there was no way to refund it. Although it was a little painful, Nicole endured it.

She tried to comfort herself. She hadn't bought anything for Jacob in such a long time, and she hadn't bought him any good gift in the past as well. She decided to buy this shirt as a compensation.

As for the money, she would earn it back after she signed the contract with Alex.

Nicole went back to the villa with many bags in her hands. The servants were all surprised to see her returning with bags.

"Miss Nicole, it's the first time to see you buy so many things."

"Yeah, is today a special day for you?"

Nicole put down the bags and distributed the gifts she had bought to the servants one by one.

"Here you are. This is the earrings for you."

"This is for you."

"Where is Lily? I bought her a bracelet and I want to see if she likes it or not. "

Lily touched the bracelet on her hand, feeling both embarrassed and grateful. "Miss Nicole, you are so thoughtful. You even gave us gifts."

Nicole raised her lips and gave a sweet smile. She said frankly, "it's not that expensive. I just want to buy some gifts and I can't afford the expensive ones. I hope you don't mind."

Of course, they would not take her words seriously, but they would not dislike the low price. After all, she had sent them a gift, it was sincere in any way.

"Okay, please go ahead with your work. I will go upstairs and put these things down."

Nicole was about to go upstairs with the bag.

Lily smiled at the other servants, looked at Nicole and asked, "Miss Nicole, what did you buy for Mr. Jacob?"

"It's just a shirt. I'll let him try it on when he comes back."

"Okay, I'll call Mr. Jacob and ask him when he'll be back for dinner."

Nicole looked back at Lily's ambiguous smile, and understood her intentions. She immediately felt embarrassed and said, "don't mention the shirt over the phone. It's not a big deal."

"Okay, it's a surprise, I do understand."

Lily made an "OK" gesture, and her smile became more ambiguous.

Nicole didn't know how to explain the misunderstanding from Lily. She shrugged her shoulders with a bitter smile and went upstairs.

She was just in a good mood as her career had progressed, so it was not a surprise.

This group of people really liked to see the fun and make trouble.

---

In the office, Jacob received a phone call. He put down the file and looked at the name on the screen. Then he answered the phone immediately.

"Mr. Jacob, I've found it out."

Jacob gasped. He coughed and said coldly, "tell me."

"This afternoon, Miss Du met a manager called Alex in the coffee shop. Her regular work is to excavate talented people from all walks of life and persuade them to sign a contract with Awake-Morning Agency. This will help their cultivate promotion and make profit for the company."

"Go on."

"Miss Du had a nice conversation with him. It has been confirmed that the contract should be signed in a few days. Then she will go to the company to sign the contract with Awake-Morning Agency."

Jacob breathed a sigh of relief. This afternoon, one of Jacob's men reported to him that Nicole had met a man which made him be frowning all this afternoon. Finally he was relaxed.

Although he knew in his heart that Nicole would not get close to other men behind his back, he had to be cautious because he knew that there had been Austin and Ron at least.

If it was just talking about work, then there was no need to be so nervous.

He rubbed between his eyebrows and asked calmly, "anything else?"

"After talking with that man, Mrs. Du went shopping and bought a lot of things, clothes and jewelry in low-grade clothes stores, which were less than 200 on average."

"Okay."

"By the way, she bought a shirt on five thousand."

Hearing this, the laziness on Jacob's face was replaced by seriousness again.

His subordinate continued to report, "after buying these things, Mrs. Du went back to the villa and didn't go anywhere else."

"Okay, I see."

After hanging up the phone, Jacob couldn't help thinking.

Who did Nicole buy men's shirts for?

Could it be...

No way...
