Chapter 768 Professor From Neve
The manager’s interest was piqued upon hearing Deirdre’s final sentence.
“Leave your number, and I’ll see if there’s anything up your alley.”
Deirdre did not have a phone, so she left Tobey’s phone number.
A few days passed, but there was no response.
Just as Deirdre thought that she would not be able to land a job, Tobey returned from work at night and told Deirdre, “A woman called me today wanting to talk to you. Her name is Ms. Reed, and she is a manager somewhere.” 1
Deirdre perked up. “What did she say?”
Tobey said, “She did not explain in detail after learning that I’m not you. She told me to let you call her back when I’m home.”
Deirdre hastily instructed Tobey to call the manager. Nôvel/Dr(a)ma.Org - Content owner.
The manager picked up the call after a while and said before Deirdre could speak, “Is this Miss McKinnon?”
The manager chuckled and said, “You hit the jackpot. I chatted with a highly – respectable professor with whom I have a rather close relationship, and he wanted to commission a piano teacher for his grandchild. Thus, I recommended you.” “Really?”
Deirdre was delighted and thanked the manager repeatedly.
‘Could this be the sun that comes after the rain?” “I can see that you’re a rather honest person, while the professor is always ready to help someone in need. He knows you’re visually impaired, so he set a date for you to go to work immediately. It’s the day after tomorrow, so please work hard and don’t embarrass me.”
The manager added, “As for the pay, you’ll be making 70 dollars per day. You’ll work Saturdays and Sundays. I can see that you have a hard time making a living, so I’m just going to take 15 dollars as a commission.
That’s not too much, right?” ‘That’s not too much at all!” “Alright. You can come to my place the day after tomorrow, and I’ll take you there. Oh, right, remember to get yourself a phone tomorrow so you can be reached more easily. Don’t be using your boyfriend as your middle person.” “Sure, sure!”
After ending the call, Tobey approached her and asked, “What’s going on? Were you looking for a job?”
Deirdre’s cheeks blushed in joy. “Hmm! I wasn’t counting on landing a job, so I didn’t expect that someone would actually be looking to hire a piano teacher coincidentally.”
Tobey felt heartfelt joy when he saw how delighted she was. He rubbed her hair and said, “You deserve the best. I shall get you a phone tomorrow so you can be reached easily.”
“Sure!”
Deirdre headed downstairs to meet the manager carrying her newly- purchased phone the day after tomorrow.
Shauna drove her to the destination and constantly guided her there. ‘The man who hired you to be their piano teacher used to be a professor who taught at an elite university in Neve. He is venerable and highly respected, but his health isn’t doing so well, so he moved to Substate to recuperate from his
illness. You must know your place when you talk and act around him. He may be easygoing, but it doesn’t mean that you can behave extravagantly either.”
Deirdre repeatedly nodded while Shauna said, ‘The child you’ll be teaching is a 17- year-old girl who is rather defiant. She has no sense of propriety in her speech and has infuriated multiple teachers into quitting. If you’re displeased at work, think of the money and put up with it anyhow. I won’t take extra commission from you when you get a raise.”
Deirdre memorized everything that she was told, and Shauna was pleased. The car stopped in the meantime, and she sent Deirdre to the villa’s door.
After knocking on the door, a girl with a ponytail opened the door and shut the door heavily after seeing the two strangers at the door.
Deirdre could not help feeling anxious in her heart when she felt the wind from the shutting door.
It seemed that the girl was not to be trifled with. Shauna rang the doorbell once again.
The girl opened the door, her expression impatient. “You’re really annoying! You can go somewhere else if you’re looking to beg from door to door. Do you think I’ll give money just because you’re blind?”
Shaun could not help smiling apologetically. “Ms. Ward, we’re not here to beg for money. I’m the manager of a recruitment agency, Shauna Reed, and this is the piano teacher hired by Prof. Ward.”
