After the divorce, I started to transfer
Chapter 1895 Taking Action to Help
Sandra walked over confidently, first giving Rachel a warm hug, and then politely nodding to the three people on Chen Feng's side.
“Sandra, can you tell me more about your work experience? Rachel only said you used to be a police officer.”
Out of respect for Rachel, Chen Feng spoke to the large woman rather politely, and his first impression of her was indeed quite good.
“Okay, sir.” Sandra nodded immediately and began to recount her work experience. “After graduating from high school, I didn’t get into college, so I went straight to work. My first job was as a security guard at a shopping mall, and later I worked as a deliveryman for a while. When I was 21, I applied for training at the Los Angeles Police Department Academy, and after six months I passed the exam and officially joined the police force. I worked there for five or six years until I officially resigned last year.”
Later, I took my current job as a real estate agent. But I must admit that I'm not cut out for this line of work, and I haven't been able to sell many houses yet.
So I really want this security guard job. I've done this kind of work before, and more importantly, it's close to home. The pay is good, and I can work with Rachel. We used to be colleagues, and we patrolled the streets together for a while, so we get along quite well.”
Chen Feng then asked, "I heard you're a mother now, and your child is quite young. If you take this security guard job, your hours won't be very flexible. Can you take good care of your child? Will your family have any objections?"
Sandra quickly explained, "If your monthly salary is really ten thousand dollars as Rachel told me, then my family will definitely be fine, and the children will be well taken care of."
For example, when I'm at work, my child is usually cared for by my mother, my husband's mother, or a professional nanny during the day.
The child is only cared for by my husband and me when we get home from get off work each evening. There are absolutely no problems with that. Furthermore, if I am successfully hired for this job, I will cherish it very much and will definitely do my best to satisfy you, the boss.
“Okay, everything’s settled on my end. Brina, is there anything else you want to ask?” Chen Feng looked at Brina, seeking her opinion. This was a form of recognition for him as his “girlfriend,” something Molly, sitting to the side, didn’t receive.
Since Chen Feng has no problem, Brina naturally won't have any problems either, mainly because she has to give her cousin face.
However, since Chen Feng had asked, as the lady of the house, she felt she had to assert her authority. So she asked, "Sandra, I heard you say that you'll be taking care of the children with your husband when you get home tonight. Does that mean you can only work day shifts here from now on? Would it be difficult to get you to work night shifts?"
Sandra immediately assured her, "I can work the night shift, no problem at all. Of course, if there's any emergency, I can coordinate with Rachel, since there are two of us."
Rachel chimed in, "I'm perfectly fine with this too. Considering I'll be living here with the kids, I can work the night shift most of the time. If necessary, I can switch with Sandra, just like she said, since there are two of us, we can take turns if one of us has an emergency."
After hearing this, Brina nodded and said, "Okay, then I have no problem either."
Chen Feng then made the final decision, saying, "Alright, congratulations, Sandra, you're officially hired. We can sign the employment contract now. The monthly salary is $10,000, and you'll have one month of paid vacation every year. If you're okay with it, take a look at this contract and sign it."
"Thank you, thank you, boss." Sandra's face lit up with joy as she quickly stepped forward to take the contract from Chen Feng.
After quickly glancing through it, she happily picked up the pen and signed it. It was a fairly formal employment contract, essentially waiving the probationary period. After all, with Rachel, Brinna's cousin, acting as guarantor, Chen Feng had no intention of deliberately delaying the probationary period.
Moreover, Sandra was a seasoned patrol officer before, and the reason she was willing to work as a security guard was simply because the salary here was high enough; otherwise, it would be difficult to hire such a professional.
As usual, Chen Feng glanced at the signed employment contract, then handed it to Brina, before standing up to shake hands with Sandra and saying, "Welcome to the company."
The handshake lasted only four or five seconds. After letting go, Chen Feng's expression changed slightly, but he quickly concealed it.
Sandra didn't notice Chen Feng's sudden change in expression. She happily shook hands and hugged Rachel, excitedly saying, "Rachel, we're partners again from now on. Thank you so much for your recommendation; I'll definitely treat you to dinner next time."
Rachel happily agreed, "OK, then I'm going to that Mexican restaurant we used to go to. Their pizza is absolutely amazing. We used to go there all the time when we were cops. But I haven't been there in a long time now, since it's a bit far."
Sandra nodded in agreement, "Yes, that restaurant is really good. I miss their pizza; it's been a long time since I've had it. Why don't we just order takeout and have it delivered to us once we officially start working?"
As the two were talking, Chen Feng suddenly called out to her, "Sandra, can I talk to you alone?"
Everyone was taken aback and turned to look at him. Chen Feng, however, remained calm, simply gazing at Sandra with a composed expression.
Sandra immediately understood and readily agreed, "Okay, boss. Of course, no problem at all."
“Okay, let’s go to that room over there and talk privately.” Chen Feng pointed to a room near the living room, which was probably used as a reception room. It was furnished with a sofa, a coffee table, and a 65-inch color TV on the wall.
Chen Feng entered the room first, followed by Sandra, who then discreetly closed the door behind him.
Her expression seemed a little strange. But she didn't think Chen Feng had any ill intentions towards her; after all, there were three other people sitting outside, including the boss's girlfriend. Besides, she didn't think she was the type of woman Chen Feng, an Eastern man, would like; she was self-aware enough to know that.
Chen Feng sat down on the sofa against the wall, then pointed to the seat opposite him. Sandra immediately sat down on the sofa opposite him and asked, "Boss, is there something you want to say to me privately?"
Chen Feng hesitated for a moment, carefully considering his words before speaking: "It's like this. I know a kind of physiognomy from our Dragon Kingdom, similar to your Western astrology, which can reveal a person's fortune and misfortune."
So, I noticed something amiss on your face earlier, and I wanted to discuss this with you privately. Of course, if you don't believe in these things, you can simply refuse. That's all for now; I won't discuss these mystical matters with you any further.
"Boss, you actually know astrology?" Sandra looked surprised and curious. These Western women were practically all superstitious, and they tended to believe in God, the devil, and all sorts of supernatural things. Besides, someone of Chen Feng's status had no reason to lie to her. So, while she had her doubts, she was mostly curious.
Chen Feng nodded slightly and said, "I guess so. But this is called physiognomy, which is based on observing a person's facial features, that is, looking at their face. It is fundamentally different from your Western astrology."
Sandra nodded repeatedly: "I know, I've heard of it before. There's also the idea of reading a person's fate by looking at their palm lines, and I've heard it's quite accurate. A friend of mine mentioned it to me."
Chen Feng then asked, "Do you think it's necessary to explain this to you in more detail?"
Without hesitation, Sandra replied, "That's absolutely necessary. Boss, can you tell my fortune or misfortune from my face? Am I about to encounter something bad?" Chen Feng's face showed a conflicted expression again. If he hadn't just signed a formal contract with her, and hadn't inadvertently learned her secrets during their handshake, and hadn't foreseen that her life would be in danger tomorrow, Chen Feng really wouldn't want to get involved in her private affairs.
This time, Sandra noticed the unusual expression on Chen Feng's face. Her expression immediately turned serious, and she felt a little nervous. She took the initiative to say, "Boss, just say it. I can handle it."
Seeing that she had a decent mental fortitude, Chen Feng felt somewhat relieved. After thinking for a moment, he said, "I can tell from your face that you might face a life-threatening situation tomorrow. And this might be related to your romantic troubles. In other words, it's probably because of your love life that you might encounter danger tomorrow."
"Because of feelings?" Sandra's eyes widened slightly. After a few seconds of stunned silence, she said with a hint of suspicion and wariness, "Boss, I don't know what you're talking about. What do you mean by 'because of feelings'?"
Seeing the other person's expression, Chen Feng felt speechless. He really couldn't believe that this new mother, who had just given birth last year, and who was tall, strong, and of only average appearance, would have an affair.
Even more unexpectedly, her affair partner turned out to be a college student from a prestigious university, several years younger than her. From the images that flashed through her mind, she could tell he was a very handsome young man, a student at UCLA, making him an alumnus of Brinna's university.
Chen Feng didn't know how Sandra and this male college student got together; it might be related to her current profession. For example, the male college student might have been looking for an apartment and contacted Sandra, a real estate agent, and that's how they met.
This was the scene Chen Feng had previously seen in his mind using his information tracing ability. Then, his danger premonition sensed the moment the male college student hit her with his car.
This is a typical story of love turning into hate, which leads to a complex web of emotions and grudges.
Chen Feng could understand Sandra's desire to keep her affair a secret, after all, she had a husband and children. But the problem was that she was now working as a security guard here, and if Chen Feng hadn't warned her, she might have really met with some misfortune tomorrow.
This was not the outcome Chen Feng wanted. Not only did Chen Feng need her to work as a security guard, but her newborn child also needed its mother. Not to mention the male college student; if he really did hit someone with his car, his life would be completely ruined.
Therefore, adhering to the principle of trying to save her if possible, Chen Feng called Sandra into the room alone to discuss this matter.
Now that things have come to this point, Chen Feng didn't bother with any more beating around the bush and went straight to the point: "I can tell from your face that you've been cheating, so the danger you'll face tomorrow is very likely to come from your lover. Have you had any conflicts with him recently?"
Sandra's eyes widened instantly, her mouth agape, her face filled with shock and horror. Only after Chen Feng finished speaking did she react, immediately clasping her hands together and pleading, "Please, boss, you must keep this a secret. I admit I made a very serious mistake, but I'm trying my best to correct it. So, the day before yesterday, I officially broke up with Hansen; I don't want this mistake to continue."
I know he doesn't want to break up, but I have to. Boss, can you really tell from my face that he's after me, and not someone else? He's a UC student, graduating next year. Would he really do something like this?
Given Chen Feng's status, it's impossible for him to deliberately deceive or scare her; there's no need for that. A boss who can offer her a monthly salary of ten thousand dollars wouldn't do something so pointless, so Sandra believed that Chen Feng had genuinely seen through her deception.
Although she believed that Chen Feng had seen through her infidelity, she still couldn't accept that the academically excellent male college student might do something detrimental to her.
Chen Feng said calmly, "This is the result I deduced from your appearance. Therefore, I suggest that you contact the other party immediately today, have a good talk with him, soothe his emotions, and try your best to dispel any thoughts of revenge he might have against you."
Of course, you shouldn't continue down this wrong path with him, but you need to be more polite and tactful in your words. You absolutely mustn't let him turn his love into hatred.
Sandra's face showed a mixture of embarrassment, anger, and a complex array of emotions. After a long while, she sighed and said, "I didn't expect Hansen to be so reluctant to let me go. But I already have a husband and children. My child is only ten months old, and he can't grow up in a broken home."
Besides, my husband and I are very loving, and I would never break up with him. My relationship with Hansen was really just a momentary impulse, and it only lasted a little over two months. Later, I realized my mistake and was determined to break up with him.
He begged me, but I ignored him. Perhaps it was truly cruel to him, which is why he sought revenge. But now I really don't know what to do. Should I appease him? And continue this illicit relationship? I don't want that. And this absolutely cannot be known to my husband, or anyone else. Boss, please, please keep this a secret.”
Chen Feng nodded slightly and agreed, "I will keep it a secret for you. However, if you can't handle this guy named Hansen, he might not keep it a secret for you, and he might even attack you and cause you harm."
"Boss, what should I do?" Sandra looked at Chen Feng with a pleading expression.
Chen Feng suddenly felt a bit of a headache. Originally, this kind of emotional entanglement had nothing to do with him, but because he happened to use his information tracing ability and then coincidentally used his precognitive ability on her, he just happened to know Sandra's secret and the danger she might face tomorrow.
And so, he inexplicably got caught up in this rotten mess.
In addition, since he approves of Sandra serving as the security guard for his mansion, if something were to happen to her tomorrow, he would have to go through the trouble of finding another security guard.
Therefore, after hesitating for a few seconds, Chen Feng decided to lend a hand.
"Here's what we'll do. I have a friend who's quite influential in Los Angeles. I can have him find someone to teach this guy named Hansen a lesson so he won't dare to retaliate against you again, let alone break up your family."
Sandra's face immediately showed a look of pity, and she asked cautiously, "Boss, could you use a gentler method?"
After thinking for a moment, Chen Feng said, "Then the only option is to give him money. You can ask me for an advance of one month's salary, which is ten thousand US dollars. Give him this money and say some nice things to him. Consider it your breakup fee. Of course, if that's all, I'm afraid he might think you're weak and easy to bully, and he might try to blackmail you with all sorts of excuses in the future."
Sandra hesitated for a moment, a hint of pain flashing across her face, but she finally nodded and said, "Let's do it this way. Boss, I'll ask you for an advance of one month's salary, and then I'll buy him an expensive breakup gift. It might not cost ten thousand dollars, but it will definitely make him feel my sincerity and apology."
Chen Feng asked with some curiosity, "What kind of breakup gift are you planning to give him?"
Sandra didn't keep him in suspense and said directly, "Hansen is an engineering student, so I plan to give him a top-of-the-line laptop, within a budget of about ten thousand dollars. He'll definitely like it, and it should extinguish his desire for revenge against me. Actually, it's not entirely his fault. My sudden unilateral announcement of breaking up with him was indeed a bit cruel to him. He was so infatuated with me."
Chen Feng's lips twitched slightly as he listened, but he still nodded in agreement and said, "Your idea is indeed good. I'll give you an advance of ten thousand dollars in salary now."
"Thank you, boss! Don't worry, I will definitely work hard and be loyal to you from now on." (End of Chapter)
