Finally I Got You

Chapter 34: A Somewhat Familiar Face



“There is still one minute left.” Fred Garner interrupted his assistant and looked at his watch.

“I’m sorry I’m late.” As soon as the words left his mouth, a woman dragging a suitcase appeared on the screen, and it was clear from her attire that this woman had a lot of character.

“Fortunately, president, can we start now?” David, the assistant, took a long breath and said.

“Well, send over the information on the last player to arrive.” Fred Garner nodded his head and said to his assistant.

Fred Garner stared at the screen, and from the label on her luggage, he could tell that she had just come from the airport. This woman was like a glowing jade stone that shone brightly, especially that confident face, that long, silky hair, casually draped over her shoulders, and it looked like she should be a person who was unpretentious. Fred Garner looked at that face and watched her sit down calmly and pick up the pen.

This face, seems a bit familiar, Fred Garner searched desperately in his mind, it doesn’t make sense, such a confident and attractive girl, he should not forget if he had seen it.

“President, this is Miss Elena’s information.” A few minutes later, David came in with Elena’s information.

“Elena …… Why is it so familiar?” Fred Garner stared at the photo, but it was as if he had memory loss, he always felt an impression, but he just couldn’t remember.

The time slipped by in Fred Garner’s murmuring, today his head seems to be particularly not working, the final is over, he still does not seem to remember.

“President, this final is over, should we take all the top 30 entries?” David is a bit nervous today, the president seems to be a bit different than before, since that Elena appeared, the president is this kind of expression.

“Let the judges decide first, just bring the top ones to me.” Fred Garner’s eyes were still glued on Elena’s resume.

Seeing Fred Garner keep staring at Miss Elena’s resume, David thought for a moment and said, “President, Miss Elena studied in Italy before returning to China.”

“Well, the outside world seems to have a very high opinion of her her.” Fred Garner saw the assistant mention it, which was slightly embarrassing to close the resume.

“Yes, the work she designed won a silver medal in last year’s European and American design competition, and stylistically, it is more suitable for the Asian market, which may be related to the fact that she herself is Chinese.”

David nodded his head, as an assistant, these are the things he must go to know, good thing he usually did his homework well.

Outside the gates of The Cloud Group, Elena, who had finished the finals, came out again, dragging her suitcase, which was less than an hour before and after, and now, had to take her luggage to the hotel first, and then to rent an apartment to stay.

After returning to the hotel, Elena took out the rental information she had copied from the Internet, intending to look at them one by one before going to work, to solve the problem of living.

Of course, the house can not be rented too small, although she is currently alone, but when the child’s father is found, the child is also to be picked up.

The next day, while Elena was looking at apartments, she received a call from the HR department of The Cloud Group, informing her to report to the company on Monday to sign the contract.

The day before work, Elena finally found a two-bedroom apartment, which was a bit far from The Cloud Group, but the rent was relatively cheaper.

Elena planned to go to the police station to find all the people with the same name and compare them one by one after she had settled down, she was sure she could find Fred Garner.

When she first started working at The Cloud Group, Elena was still a bit uncomfortable with the 9 to 5 working life.

A week later, Elena finally got used to it. On this day, the company held an awards meeting and also welcomed newcomers to the division, and it was said that the president would personally come out today to present the awards.

Before coming back, Elena had checked the structure and growth system of The Cloud Group, but she did not know much about the young and talented president, and was a little surprised when she first heard the president’s name at the award ceremony.

Sitting on the stage, she really didn’t think that the president’s name was Fred Garner, and there was a corner in her heart where she couldn’t help but raise her expectations.

Maybe it’s just the same name, although the name is the same, but the difference is too much, with the president’s body, looks, family history, can definitely be selected as the top ten outstanding young people, and then think about the memory of the face full of ‘husband’ compared, Elena can not help but shake her head, this is not comparable.

“First of all, our president will personally present the award to the first prize winner of this competition, Miss Elena.” The award was given from the excellence award, when the presenter’s voice came from the stage, Elena was lost in thought, in the past five years, she thought about her husband who had only been with her for three days, especially when giving birth to Jack and Jeffery, that face had long been engraved in her mind.

“Miss Elena, Miss Elena, it’s your turn to receive the award.” The colleague sitting next to Elena touched her lightly with her elbow.

“Oh! Sorry.” When the presenter was about to end the long wait after half a day of shouting, Fred Garner stopped it.

“President, maybe Miss Elena is not here today, so let’s go to the following part.” The host asked Fred Garner for instructions.This content © Nôv/elDr(a)m/a.Org.

“Wait a little longer, maybe Miss Elena went to the bathroom.” Fred Garner said this when he actually saw Elena, and he had to admit that this stylish lady had caught his attention.

He had always been focused on work, especially after the experience of Anna, women for him is just a creature as opposed to men, the strange thing is that this woman called Elena, since the beginning has attracted his attention, there is always a feeling as if the two have met somewhere.

Finally seeing Elena come up, Fred Garner had a light smile of appreciation on his face.

“Miss Elena, congratulations on winning the first prize in this competition, and also today is the signing ceremony, our company will hire you as the chief designer.” Fred Garner presented the award to Elena and signed the contract at the same time.

“Thank you president, it is my honor to join a well-known company in China.” After both parties signed the contract, Elena extended her hand to shake Fred Garner’s. When the two hands touched, a strong electric current spread from both hands to all limbs.

Fred Garner presented the award to Elena and signed the contract at the same time.

Miss, haven’t we met somewhere before?” For the president of a group, it was obviously a bit inappropriate to say this at this time, but the words just came out of his mouth, and when they were said, both of them were stunned.

“Thank you, the president is so good, if I had met him, I think I would have been impressed.” Elena smiled and drew back her hand, ashamed of her outburst, she had lost her concentration in front of a large crowd.

Elena smiled and walked off the stage, and just as she turned around, a current of electricity brushed through Fred Garner’s brain, and dusty memories were instantly opened up.

“Elena…” Fred Garner murmured, lost in thought.

At this moment, Elena, who was getting off the host stage, heard the call and couldn’t help but look back, seeing that Fred Garner didn’t follow up again and quickly returned to his position.

Before the conference was over, Fred Garner left the venue, and even left the company, he drove his car and rushed back home.

Just that moment, he remembered, Elena, five years ago, the girl who pulled him to get married seems to be called this name, but he was a little uncertain, so he drove back to see what.

Five years ago, because of the sudden death of his father, he temporarily forgot his married status. When his father’s affairs were taken care of and he took over the company that was almost emptied, he was busy again, and when he remembered, he came back to B City to look for Elena, there was no one there anymore.

With two marriage licenses in hand, Fred Garner sat down on the floor, remembering how he approached The Costa family four years ago.

That day he went to B City with confidence to find Elena, intended to bring Elena back, but did not expect, Elena’s adoptive mother told her that Elena has left, as to where, they do not know, only that Elena know their own life and then left.

At that time he obviously sensed that Rebecca was lying, but he observed for many days around The Costa family, did not see Elena, and even went to the registry office to check, and got the result that Elena was really gone, even the registry was moved away.

To this day he has not forgotten the despair he felt after learning the news, she left like that, even in spite of their marriage, she was really that cruel, if not for the two marriage certificates, not for the phone number Elena left behind, he could not help but think that the three days of happy marriage might just be a dream.

That day, Fred Garner did not return to the office, from noon to evening, he looked at the marriage certificate in his hands, thinking back to the first acquaintance with Elena, registration, and even three days of happy life.

He vaguely remembered Elena’s reason for choosing him, simply because he was the first unmarried person of the opposite sex she had ever closed her eyes to, and even though he looked so uncomplimentary at the time, Elena still dragged him to register.

When he said he left, what did he come back for now? And also choose to work in his company, what is this for?

Could it be that Elena already knew his identity and deliberately ‘lurked’ to his side?

Five years, in fact, this marriage, they can completely apply for dissolution, but he never thought about it, it seems to have not received Elena’s divorce application, is she forget this marriage or completely do not care?

Thinking of the girl who cried so much five years ago, thinking of the helpless girl at the beginning, Fred Garner decided not to disclose their relationship for the time being, he would wait and see what she was up to.

After all, what was the purpose of her sudden appearance after five years? If he divorced at this point, the shares of The Cloud Group, his assets would inevitably be divided among her. After thinking about it, Fred Garner put the marriage certificate back in the safe.

The next morning, Fred Garner went to work as usual, except that she asked her assistant to bring Elena’s information over again. Looking at the information, Fred Garner’s eyebrows wrinkled, never thought that she had gone to Italy in the first place, no wonder he couldn’t find anyone no matter how he looked and waited.

“President, you seem to be particularly impressed with Miss Elena.” David saw the president staring at Miss Elena’s photo and was curious.
