Run, run as fast as you can, but you can't run away even if you break your shoes.
Sam never dreamed that he would be hired!
And it was Martin who personally named him, leaving everyone stunned.
Cielo handed him a form and said, "Fill out this form and you can start working today. Is that okay?"
Sam quickly replied, "No problem!"
After being dismissed from his previous company, he actually found a job with even better treatment than his previous company at the Murray's Group, which is a "better company" that many people can't even get into!
It seems that he's not that unlucky after all!
Sam happily took the form back to his workstation.
Just as he had finished filling it out, he received a message, "xxx, your rented apartment has been burglarized, with heavy losses. Please come to xxx to make a statement after work."
Sam remained silent.
Just then, his phone rang with a message tone. He had participated in a lottery for a smart display company the night before and won.
"Hello, you've won one xxxx curved screen. It has been sent to you via local express delivery. Please check it out," the message read.
Sam exclaimed with joy. He had wanted that curved screen for a long time, and it cost more than 20,000 dollars. He couldn't bear to buy it himself, but he had won it!
However, he hadn't even been happy for two seconds when he received another message from the logistics company, "Sorry, we've been trying to call you but couldn't reach you! Your xxxx curved screen was broken during transportation due to force majeure (a roadside fire), so we are not liable for compensation. Please contact the merchant."
Coincidentally, the merchant also messaged him and showed him the prize rules, stating that there would be no compensation in case of force majeure.
Sam remained silent.
Just then, another message arrived, "Your breakfast order has been delivered."
But then the deliveryman sent another message, "I'm sorry, my bike was parked on the side of the road, and your breakfast was eaten by a dog."
Sam remained silent.
His expression gradually became numb.
What he couldn't see was that there was a ghost hovering over his head, with another ghost beside it.
The unlucky ghost was arguing with Clara, "Sis, can I call you sis? You guys just treated me like a fart and let me go!"
He grabbed Sam's neck and pulled him over.
Clara said, "No, you can't!"
She grabbed Sam's collar and pulled him over.
Sam kept jumping back and forth between lucky and unlucky, with good luck one second and bad luck the next. Or he would be extremely unlucky one second and suddenly stumble upon something good the next second.
Susie looked at Sam and said, "Hmm..."
Sam quickly filled out the form, but accidentally spilled the water in his colleague's cup as he walked by.
He had to go print a new form, but as soon as he printed the blank form, the printer emitted a puff of smoke and broke down.
"That was close..."
He had just finished printing!
Suddenly, a gust of wind blew the form out the window...
Kellen said, "Is this person possessed by bad luck?"
Susie looked at him in surprise and asked, "Dad, how did you know?"
Kellen replied, "I guessed."
Seeing this person being so unlucky, he was probably the "unlucky ghost" that Susie was talking about.
Although these were just small incidents, Susie's eyes sparkled with praise. "Dad, you're amazing!"
Kellen smiled and said, "Of course."
Martin told Cielo to take Sam straight to his office.
In the office, people whispered to each other,
"Hey, doesn't this person look like the one in the video?"
"Wow, the male assistant had a hotel room with the CEO...but was caught by the CEO's fiancée in the office during a passionate moment?!"
"Damn, it's him! He's here to apply for the CEO's assistant position. Does he have his eyes on our Martin?!"
"CEO has been surrounded by so many females rivals all these years, but now a man has come."
"Martin hasn't had a woman by his side all these years, could it be..."
The shocked and curious gazes of the people felt like they were struck by lightning.
Just when the interview was going well, Martin called Sam into his office...
Oh, and there was also a super tall and handsome man who brought Martin's favorite little niece to see him just now.
Could it be that Martin has been avoiding women all these years because he prefers men???
People looked at Cielo with different eyes now.
Who is Martin's true spouse after all???
Cielo remained silent.
He looked at Sam, who was bowing his head on the side, and said in a vague tone, "Your position is the assistant for outside office affairs. Will there be any problems?"
Sam replied, "Rest assured, there won't be any problems."
Cielo had been promoted to the general assistant, and the assistant's position had been adjusted, so they were recruiting a new person.
Sam was very excited in his heart as he followed Cielo into the CEO's office. After Cielo left and locked the door behind him, Sam was taken aback. It was instructed by Martin, but he didn't know why.
He quickly grabbed the doorknob and said, "Wait!"
"I'm not what you think I am!"
Sam was dumbfounded, his mind buzzing.
Suddenly a lazy voice came, "Don't bother."
Followed by a childish voice, "You can run, but you can't escape!"
Then came a cold, emotionless voice, "Sit."
As Sam turned his head, he saw two adults and a child staring at him in the office.
Uh, why is there a child?
But when he saw Susie, Sam's heart finally relaxed.
With a child present, nothing bad could happen.
Sam chose a seat farthest from Kellen and Martin but closest to Susie and sat down nervously.
"Martin, are you looking for me?" he asked.
"Did you go on a business trip to X city a few days ago?" Martin asked.
Sam was surprised by the question, but nodded truthfully, "Yes."
"I heard you and your boss stayed in the same room?" Martin continued.
"...Yes, we did," Sam replied.
Kellen suddenly became interested and chuckled, "What happened? Tell us."
Susie vigorously nodded, "Yeah, tell us!"
As she spoke, she rolled up her non-existent sleeves... ready to catch ghosts.
"..." Sam was speechless.
Are these two adults and a child serious?
Martin looked up at him, his voice still as cold and emotionless as ever, "Don't worry, we just want to know the truth and decide whether to keep you."
Sam understood. Martin might want to hire him but was afraid that he was a person with ulterior motives.
He immediately stated, "Martin, rest assured, it was all a misunderstanding!"
He briefly explained what happened that night with his boss during the business trip, but omitted the part where he accidentally opened the curtain while taking a shower...
The poor soul on his head didn't have such scruples and, under Clara's pressure, told the whole story of that night that had caused trouble for Sam.
Clara, Σ(°ロ°)
Mitch remained silent, remained silent.
Susie was confused, "What is a waterbed?"
Sam, "Ahem..."
Martin, "Cough..."
Kellen, "Cough..."
