Chapter 89: A good start

    During his days abroad, Kevin regrly called Emily during the time she got off work at the pub.


    Because she didn’t want him to hear her sleepy voice, she had to set the rm before two in the morning and then wake up to be alert to talk to him.


    Tonight was thest night she talked to him because tomorrow, ording to the schedule, he would board a ne back to the city.


    “Kevin, it’s raining here. I can’t hear your voice anymore. I’ll hang up.” Emily proactively spoke up to stop the call.


    “Uh. Have a good night’s sleep. The rain will help you sleep better.”


    After the gentle words, the other end of the phone rang the sound of ending the call.


    Emily didn’t lie to Kevin because outside, the rain was falling heavily. Through the window, she could see the white road under the lonely dim yellow light.


    The pouring rain was like a song, lulling the sadness in her heart into a sleep of endless pain, unable to stop.


    “Kevin, let’s not meet again.”


    She lowered her head, her shoulders shaking with each sob. After tonight, all the effort he put into her has been wasted, she can no longer respond to his love.


    She can only pray that he will soon find a good girl and have his mother’s support. Only then will his happiness beplete.


    After a sleepless night, Emily’s face was not very good. When she saw her haggard appearance in the mirror, she was startled and quickly applied makeup to look better.


    In any profession, appearance is what makes the first impression on the other person. Fortunately, her makeup skills are not bad, enough to make herself look brighter.


    After putting the necessary things in her bag, she took her phone, removed the old SIM card, and reced it with a new one, then sent a text message to Brian, Irene, and Kurt, informing them that she had changed her phone number.


    Not long after the message was sent, Brian called back.


    “Did something happen to you, Emily? Why did you suddenly change your phone number?” Brian’s voice was filled with worry.


    “I’m fine. I just changed my workce so I want to change my contact number to avoid being bothered by old customers.” She opened her eyes wide and said words that were half the truth, half a lie.


    “What do you do now? Where?”


    Emily did not hide anything from the man she considered no different from her brother, telling him about her current job and workce.


    Hearing that she did a job that closely matched her expertise and interests, Brian was overjoyed.This belongs to N?velDrama.Org - ?.


    He also didn’t want her to work at the pub even though there weren’t any bad activities for the waiters there.


    “Okay, little sister, I’ll go there to support you in a few days. Let me tell you in advance that if the deputy general director of GE Corporation wants to order clothes, it will be ten or more sets of clothes.”


    “Yes, I will prioritize sewing for you first. I will wait for you, older brother.”


    Both of them burst intoughter at the same time. Brian raised his hand to wipe away the tears that had just flowed from the corner of his eyes. Finally, he could call her sister and be called brother by her.


    Although he couldn’t tell her clearly that the blood flowing in her body was half the same as his, that was still good enough.


    Lately, Jennifer has gone to thepany to work as a receptionist and no longer gathers friends to hang out or cause trouble anymore, so he feels very peaceful.


    Now that he heard that Emily had found a good job, he couldn’t help but feel touched and silently thank life.


    The door opened slightly and Kent entered. Seeing that his son’s eyes and nose were slightly red, he was extremely surprised, not knowing what had happened to him that made him so emotional.


    These past few days, Kent kept dreaming of his ex-lover, so he decided to go to the north side of the city to visit his daughter, whom he probably wouldn’t be able to tell her that he was her father until he died. He thought a lot before making this decision.


    “What’s wrong with you?” Kent frowned, staring at his son.


    Brian shook his head and told Kent that Emily had quit her job at the pub and was now working as a seamstress for the secondrgest tailor shop on the north side of the city, which specialized in tailoring clothes for the upper ss.


    “Where? I want to visit her.” Kent’s eyes lit up.


    “Are you okay, dad?” Brian was bewildered.


    “I will go there as a customer. Don’t worry.”


    Looking at Kent’s excitement, Brian couldn’t help but smile, a smile of satisfaction. He thought his father would never want to see his daughter again, whom he had been so careless about that he did not know her existence.


    Falling leaves return to their roots, he hopes that one day in the not-too-distant future, his father and she can recognize each other, even if it’s just a recognition between his father, him, and her, without letting anyone else know.


    So, he quickly sent the location of that tailor shop to Kent and told him that if Emily had any questions, just say that he introduced him there to support her.


    At this time, Emily went to work and continued cutting and sewing several suits for Kurt.


    While she was focusing on her work, suddenly two male customers walked in, told the tailor shop owner that they wanted to sew some shirts and pants, and appointed the tailor to be a girl named Emily.


    “Emily,e here for a moment.”


    Hearing the tailor shop owner calling her, she immediately put down her scissors and quickly ran out, bowing to the two young customers.


    She guessed that they were probably the same age as Kurt.


    “These two guests want you to make clothes for them.” The tailor shop owner continued to speak.


    “We are Kurt’s friends and we are here to support his sister as he requested.”


    “Yes, please choose the fabric ande to my office.” Emily tried not tough and replied gently.


    After receiving enthusiastic advice from the tailor shop owner, the two men chose the fabric and then they entered Emily’s workce.


    She took their measurements and gave them a catalog to choose from.


    She was extremely touched when Kurt told his friend that she was his sister.


    In this life, she has experienced so much sadness, but being able to meet friends and brothers who are not rted by blood like Brian and Kurt is so lucky and blessed.


    “Just sew slowly, we don’t need to rush. When you’re done, call us.” The man said as he took a pen and quickly wrote down his phone number in the small notebook on the table.


    “Yes. We are pleased to serve you.”


    As soon as the two of them turned their backs, Emily left the table and bowed her head.


    ording to the tailor shop’s regtions, when customers leave, the tailor must follow them a short distance and bow low to show gratitude and respect to them.


    The tailor shop owner is very satisfied with the new employee’s working style. Emily looks no different from the assistants who follow big bosses in the country’s leading corporations.


    When noon came, seeing the beautiful girl still working hard on the sewing machine, other female seamstresses immediately came to her office door, inviting her to have lunch with them.


    Because Emily was so engrossed in doing what she liked, she didn’t look at the clock and didn’t realize half a day had passed.


    The tailors gathered together at a nearby chicken rice restaurant and ate, drank, and chatted happily. They quickly asked Emily’s age and hometown.


    She quickly adapted to their way of talking and felt that she was not alone in her new workce because everyone was friendly and humorous.


    “Do you have a boyfriend, Emily? In our tailor shop, there have been several love stories about Cindere and the prince. The customer came to request tailoring and fell in love with the tailor.” A girl with big, sparkling eyes turned to Emily and spoke.


    “Huh? Ah… I…”


    “What are you talking about, little girl? The other day, Emily’s boyfriend brought her to apply for a job. He is a friend of the tailor shop owner, tall, handsome, and rich.” Another girl spoke up before Emily could say aplete sentence.


    The whole groupughed and simultaneously admitted that Kurt was their ideal boyfriend.


    Emily didn’t have a chance to exin her rtionship with him because every time she was about to speak, someone would speak up and then they would start talking about another topic.


    In the afternoon, when there was only an hour left before work ended, the tailor shop weed a customer who no one thought woulde from the south side of the city to this small street just to make clothes.


    Seeing the president of GE Corporation, the tailor shop owner quickly ran out and bowed to him.


    “I want to make clothes, is Miss Emily here?” Kent said after clearing his throat.


    The tailor shop owner nodded vigorously and then called out to Emily.


    Emily quickly left the sewing machine and ran next to her. She was not unfamiliar with Kent’s face. Because she was so surprised, her bowing was a bit slow.


    “Brian told Dad… ah, Brian told me toe here to make clothes. Maybe he wille in a few days.” Kent tried to control his emotions and friendly exined his sudden appearance.


    “So it turns out. Well then… please choose the fabric, then I will take the measurements for you.” Emily smiled.


    Kent quickly chose the fabrics and brought them to Emily. Looking at the daughter he had never raised or held, attentively taking measurements for him, he almost burst into tears, but luckily he could hold it back. However, his eyes and nose were also red.


    After measuring and taking notes, Emily looked up and realized that the face of the person opposite her was not very good.


    “Ah, suddenly I thought about your father. I…” Kent quickly exined when he saw her surprised expression.


    “I believe my dad is in Heaven now.” She smiled and said.


    “Yes, he is a very good person, he has gone to Heaven.”


    Emily did not expect that behind the cold and fastidious appearance of the president of arge corporation is such a friendly and emotional person.


    Today was also the first time she saw another side of him.


    That’s right. Because he is Brian’s father. Father and son should be simr.


    Before, she always felt that her father and he were like water and fire, but it seemed that he was very sad when her father passed away.


    When Kent chose the clothing styles in the catalog to sew and swiped his card to pay two-thirds of the amount he had to pay for the order, thest sunlight of the day also went out.


    Even though he wanted to invite his daughter to dinner, he didn’t dare to say anything, so he ended the meeting by saying goodbye and turning away.


    “Thank you. We are pleased to serve you.” She followed him a short distance and bowed and spoke.


    Emily didn’t know that when Kent heard her say this, tears fell from the corners of his eyes. Tears of happiness, regret, and torment.


    He wanted to hug her andfort her but he didn’t have the right to do that.
