She was sitting opposite the man but she has been feeling anxious since the CEO"s eyes never left her . she could easily tell if a man was mesmerized by her beauty just by looking at their body language . However, she couldn"t read what was on his mind .
Though he was looking at her, his face doesn"t show any emotion . That"s why she was perplexed . Charlotte had been talking about what had happen to her and her husband earlier but Alex wasn"t sure if he is listening or what .
Charlotte has noticed Ethan"s strange behavior but she chose to keep talking instead . She has this inkling that if she stops, then awkward silence will fill the atmosphere, that"s for sure .
"Also, she was one of the reason why I wanted to talk to you . "
Ethan creased his brow . that was the only moment he averted his gaze towards Charlotte .
"What do you mean?"
"As you can see, she is wearing your employee uniform . " Charlotte started . Then Ethan glanced at the woman who was trying to pull her skirt down . She"s a bit s.h.i.+vering .
Advertis.e.m.e.ntHis upper lip twitch in annoyance . Didn"t she bring a coat or a jacket perhaps?
"Her manager said that you ordered her termination because she didn"t make it during your meet and greet session this morning . I don"t think that was reasonable so I decided to help her out . you should not lose an exemplary employee like her . " Charlotte continued .
Ethan raised his brow . so she was the employee that manager Sheila had been waiting earlier huh . But he didn"t mean it that way . Anyhow, it"s good that Charlotte seek his attention on this matter . At least, she did something good this time .
"Tell me, what position did you applied for?" Ethan asked .
"S-server . A server at the hotel restaurant . " She softly replied .
Ethan was a bit upset to know that the woman was working as a waiter . Whether she is the woman he thought she is or not, his heart felt a pang of pain . Then he stood up after he hissed in frustration .
"Meet me at exactly 9am tomorrow . Suite 700 . " Then he shoved his coat lightly at the s.h.i.+vering woman . "And bring your resume . "
Alex was surprised when he stood up . She can sense the man"s displeasure but she was not expecting him to give his coat . He must have seen how she"s been quivering in the cold .
"Sir… your coat, please take it . I can manage ----""
"Take it and don"t walk along the streets with that kind of dress . " He interrupted before he left them for good .
Alex and Charlotte looked at each other in awe . Find authorized novels in Webnovel，faster updates, better experience，Please click www . webnovel . com for visiting .
"I knew it! I know he will like you . " Charlotte beamed . "Well Alex, good luck on your interview with him tomorrow . " She gave her a knowing smile before she left the lady .
Meanwhile, Ethan called the recruitment"s department head and ordered him to get the copy of all the hired employee"s resume a.s.signed at the hotel"s restaurant . He needs to have all the resume so they wouldn"t suspect him of anything . But the truth is, he only wanted to see Alex Miran"s papers .
After an hour, a knock was heard on the door . the HR manager was holding a stack of papers . he took it and dismissed the manager in his presence . As soon as he went back to the living room, he immediately browsed the papers and picked a certain resume . He stared at the 2*2 picture that was attached on it before he scanned the pages .

Alex didn"t have a choice but to carry the CEO"s coat . But somehow, she was thankful because the weather outside was very cold and the coat was able to cover her long lean exposed legs . Well, she will just wash it tonight and return tomorrow . She smiled .
It was already past 8pm when Alex reached their apartment house . Then she went to the old lady"s house and ringed the doorbell .
after a few seconds, she saw a beautiful child staring at her suspiciously . Then she chuckled at her daughter"s fierce face . Ah, she already knew what"s next .
"And why is my baby mad right now?" she stoops and pinch the child"s bubbly cheek . but then the little kid squashes her fingers away .
"Mom! That hurts!" she snorted . But then after a minute, she eyed the woman from head to toe . "Mom, where did you go? who"s coat is that? are you dating someone right now?"
There! the main reason why she was glaring at her the whole time .
"Ah… I grabbed it somewhere dear . Mom was cold that"s why she chose a big one that could cover her s.e.xy legs . It was the cheapest that"s why I bought it" She chuckled .
But the little kid was not a simple-minded one like the other kids on her age . she"s actually smart and even if she"s just three years old, her mind is working like that of a 12 years old .
"Come on, let"s go home . " she took her daughter"s hand, and after thanking the old lady for taking care of Mira, they went up to their own apartment .
It was definitely an indescribable day for Alex . Being terminated, meeting Charlotte then meeting the great CEO… ah, it"s a h.e.l.l of a ride . But wait… the CEO . . . she was thinking .
As soon as she placed Mira to sleep, she went back to her room . she was actually planning to wash the man"s coat but she got lost in her thoughts especially when the perfume used by Ethan somehow stirred something within her .
The smell of the perfume was somehow familiar . She was thinking as to where she had encountered it but she can"t remember . Also, when she first heard of his name… Ethan… and his voice, her heart went frenzy . What does that mean?
She can"t explain it though, but there is something on that man that she couldn"t figure out . then she heaved a heavy sigh .
"Forget it Alex… you need work, you need money . Therefore, do great on your interview tomorrow!" she encouraged herself .
Yeah . Tomorrow is her chance . Her chance to live . She needs to get a high paying job to pay for Miracle"s schooling . And also, two weeks from now, those loan sharks will come bugging her again . Ah! Why is she living a very difficult life?!
Ah! That man… why does he has to shove his money to her mom and dad? Those old gals are too innocent about how loan sharks works so they bit that rascal"s trap . Ahy! She"s feeling annoyed whenever she thinks about it . but what could she do? they only wanted to save her and her child"s life . she must be thankful for that .
