Paul standing aside didn’t say anything.
Lucia answered, "I think so, by the way, Paula, do you know of any part-time jobs with a high salary that I can do on weekends?"
"Let's me see.Oh, I got it! My friend just opened a bar and he is looking for a resident singer.I remember that you had participated in the singing contest in college, do you want to have a try?"
Before Paula could finish her sentence, Paul reached over and took the phone directly out of her hand.
Paula stared at him in shock, "Paul, what are you doing?"
At this time, Paul was not gentle anymore, instead, he glared at Paula and warned her, "Don't think of those bad ideas, I'll talk to her."
Paula also regretted making that suggestion because she realized that it was dangerous for Lucia to work in a bar.
Lucia waited for a moment but didn’t hear any reply, so she asked, "Hey, Paula, what's wrong?"
"Hello?"
A clear and warm voice came from the phone, making Lucia feel comfortable.
Lucia hesitated for a moment before she responded, "Paul?"
"It's me, Lucia, just now I heard you and Paula talking about looking for a part-time job, I happen to have a job here, do you want to take it?"
Lucia paused and asked, "What kind of work is it?"
Under this circumstance, she was willing to do anything as long as it was legal.
Paul said softly, "I heard Paula mention that you had learned Japanese in college, can you help translate a few Japanese contracts?"
Paula was amazed that he actually knew Lucia so well because she never told her about this, and she couldn't help but sigh, although he was her elder brother, he always paid much more attention to Lucia.
Lucia hesitated for a moment because she was not confident to translate professional contracts.
Paul hurriedly added, "It's not too difficult and we will provide a professional dictionary for you."
Lucia said, "Let me have a try, if I fail, please find another person."
Paul was relieved to hear her reply, and he said, "Okay, I will take time to send you the documents, you try to translate one first."
"Okay."
Lucia responded, then added, "Thank you, Paul."
"It's okay, we're all friends, no need to be so polite."
Seeing Paul hang up the phone, Paula joked at him while eating snacks, "Paul, you seem to tell everybody you like Lucia..."
Paul swept a glance at her and frowned, "Why are you so wild?"
Paula didn’t care about his words and bombarded, "Paul, you are much better to Lucia than you are to me.
The Japanese contract you just said, is it true?"
She knew very well that Paul was meticulous about his work and would never let an outsider handle company-related matters.
Now he had taken the initiative to ask Lucia to translate documents, which really made her confused.
Paula's question also affected Paul, but he didn’t say anything and left directly.
He must admit that the Japanese contract, indeed, did not exist, just now as soon as he heard that Paula recommended Lucia to be a bar singer, he casually found such an excuse.
No matter what, as long as he could help Lucia, he would be satisfied. All content is property © NôvelDrama.Org.
Two hours later, when Lucia was in the office revising the recent company report, she received Paul's phone call.
Thinking of what they said at noon about the Japanese contract, Lucia didn't hesitate much and answered the phone directly.
"Lucia, are you free for a minute? I happen to pass by Lion Group, and the Japanese contract is in my car, so I can deliver it to you."
Lucia’s eyes lit up, and she immediately responded, "Of course, I'll be right down."
Paul smiled, "Okay, I'll be right there, you can come downstairs after three minutes."
Lucia said, "Okay."
After a while, she took the elevator to the lobby.
After passing through the lobby, Lucia saw a tall figure wearing a gray suit standing at the entrance and she immediately walked quickly toward him.
Paul turned around, saw Lucia, and immediately greeted her with a smile.
He handed her the folder in his hand and instructed in a lighter voice, "There are four copies here, you translate one first, then take a picture and give it to me, and if you can, finish translating the remaining three copies, just at the price of five hundred for a thousand words."
Lucia was a little surprised, "Is it too expensive for you?"
She had probably understood some of the translation industry's market, and the price Paul offered her today was already very good.
Paul smiled and said gently, "Do not worry, just follow the requirements of the contract translation."
Lucia sighed with relief and gripped the folder tightly.
She had to cherish this opportunity to raise money for her dad.
She looked up and smiled at him, "Thank you, Paul."
"My pleasure."
He could not help but stretch out his hand to rub her hair, with infinite affection in his eyes.
But their movements were completely watched by August, who was sitting in the back seat of the car not far away.
