King's Landing Nottingham

Chapter 64 Force Majeure

Chapter 64 Force Majeure
Chapter 65 Force Majeure

In Nottingham in the early morning, there is a busy atmosphere everywhere. The pedestrians on the road look in a hurry, and the speeding wheels set off patches of water, not knowing where they are going.

Accompanied by the drizzle, the whole city is in motion. With the trams moving slowly, the vendors hawking along the street, and the blast furnaces billowing with smoke, Nottingham also seems to wake up, finally starting a new day. live.

Elena is very used to leaving for the company at this time. She didn't want to take an umbrella, but she hated the feeling of being wet by the rain, and she hated rainy days very much.

"Damn ghost weather!".

Cursing secretly, Elena still put on a long black umbrella.

The air felt full of damp water vapor, which made Elena feel even more uncomfortable.

She is about to graduate in the second half of the year. As an outstanding student of the Journalism Department of the University of Nottingham, she got the opportunity to intern at the "Daily Mirror".

It is foreseeable that she will follow the path paved by her predecessor, Patricia, and become a front-line female reporter in the British newspaper industry.

This is her fifth month as an intern at "Daily Mirror", which is not short in terms of time. Many old employees like her very much.

Among them, there are naturally many suitors of Eileen, and of course there are also some female seniors who have brought her.

Elena's humble attitude and outstanding work enthusiasm have made her colleagues look up to her, and they all think that after graduation, she will naturally become one of them.

Things are indeed developing in this direction. Since Elena and Patricia did an exclusive interview with Wei Xun, they have become the full-time reports of Notts County and England's low-level league for the "Daily Mirror". frontline reporters.

She can always find a little bit of inside information from Wei Xun and Notts County that others can't get, which also makes her status in the "Daily Mirror" soar.

Elena's current figure is the envy of many of her peers. The proportions are very well-proportioned, almost perfect.Coupled with her soul-stirring face, skin so delicate that water can be squeezed out, and short golden short hair close to the ears, it gives people a very spiritual feeling.

Many colleagues believe that this is Elena's unique advantage as a reporter.

But she doesn't like to waste time fighting wits with those men. If possible, she would rather they be more straightforward.

But it's a pity, because of the bad feelings her first boyfriend had towards her, now Elena has a deep resistance to men.

In fact, the student apartment of the University of Nottingham is only 10 minutes away from the office of the "Daily Mirror" in Nottingham, but Elena is used to starting from the school apartment 30 minutes earlier, which is why she did it once during the five-month internship. No reason for being late.

Even in such bad weather today, Elena still arrived at the company 5 minutes earlier.

"Eileen, Editor-in-Chief Carl asked you to go to his office!"

As soon as Elena walked into the office, she was immediately notified by a colleague to go to the editor-in-chief's office before she touched the stool.

As an intern, Elena is undoubtedly very qualified.

She has done a very good job, but she feels that it is not enough.

Hearing the editor-in-chief's call, Elena immediately put away her things, found out her badge and put it on, tidied herself up briefly, put on her makeup, and after confirming that there was no problem, she walked to the editor-in-chief's office.

"Dong dong dong..."

"Enter……"

"Editor, are you looking for me?"

"Ah, it's Elena, sit down!"

The editor-in-chief Carl Shumpert is a middle-aged man in his 40s. He has been with the Daily Mirror for 20 years. He is a native of Nottingham, otherwise the headquarters would not have arranged for him to preside over the Nottingham branch.

If you put aside his empty head, Carl definitely belongs to the kind of mature and attractive man.

It's a pity that the editor-in-chief Carl is still more handsome when he has hair, which can be seen from the photos he put on his desktop.

Elena sat down opposite Carl Shumpert, quietly waiting for the editor-in-chief's inquiry.

Soon, Carl Shumpert finished handling the work at hand, he stared at Elena for a long time, and then said:
"Uh... Elena, I wonder how long you've been with us?"

"The editor-in-chief of the report, if you don't count today, it's been five months!"

Elena is very sensitive to numbers, so she counts this time very clearly.

"Well, five months is not short, almost half a year. We have all seen your work attitude and achievements in the past six months, and your colleagues are also full of praise for your ability, especially when you are in the acquisition of Notts County I also have a unique advantage in news, I personally very much hope that you can stay and work."

Carl Shumpert is indeed very attractive, and he has a strong manliness when he speaks.

Elena's surprise was beyond words. Of course she couldn't wish to be able to work at the "Daily Mirror", but is it true?Elena couldn't even believe her ears.

"Editor, do you mean that I can stay at the Daily Mirror after graduation?"

Elena still asked noncommittal, she was looking forward to the editor's answer.

"Personally, I am very much in favor of such an arrangement for you. However, it is not possible for the time being. You know, the newspaper office has the rules of the newspaper office, and the news industry also has the rules of the news industry. Without rules, there is no circle."

"Well, I understand! Editor-in-chief, I can wait, it should be like this!"

Elena was a little excited, "Don't you just wait until you graduate to officially sign the contract, isn't that the case?" Elena didn't think the editor-in-chief's words were abnormal, but thought it was understandable.

"No, Elena, I think, you may not understand what I mean..."

Carl Shumpert's hands had no place to rest, so he could only scratch his somewhat smooth scalp to ease his embarrassment.

"So, editor-in-chief, can you tell me what it means?"

Elena felt a bad breath, just like today's weather, this feeling was terrible, she didn't know what was about to happen, but as a woman, her intuition had already given her the best answer.

"We can no longer allow you to stay at the "Daily Mirror" as an intern. We received an order from the headquarters, and your father was fired from the headquarters. We were affected by force majeure. The pressure from above made the editor-in-chief helpless. Really I'm so sorry, Elena."

"I have always remembered Larson's kindness to me back then, but I really can't do anything about the two of you."

"Thank you, editor-in-chief..."

Elena felt a little wronged, but she knew that if even her father was fired by the headquarters, then she would be even more hopeless. After all, her father entrusted her with this internship opportunity.

Walking out of the editor-in-chief's office, Elena returned to her desk, took off her press card and badge, put them neatly on her seat, put on her bag, and left quietly.

She walked to the gate of the office in a daze, but couldn't help it, and turned around to look inside the newspaper office again.

She was very reluctant, but there was nothing she could do. God gave her a beautiful skin, but did not give her a chance to prove her ability. What greeted her was a faint salty taste from the corner of her mouth, whether it was rain or tears.
