Chapter 1889: Is This Really Just a Coincidence?
Andrew returned to the company and placed the contract in the drawer before getting busy with work. He didn't bother looking at the names signed on the contract or the names on the identity cards.
Half an hour later, the well-dressed Ivan entered the office. With his hands in his pockets, he exuded a natural aura. Andrew coincidentally walked in at the same time, eagerly approaching Ivan with the contract in hand. Excitedly, he reported, "Mr. Marsh, the contract has been signed."
"What contract?" Ivan inquired.
"Bubu Loves Cat. I met her today!" Andrew couldn't contain his excitement. "She called me and said she couldn't come on Monday because she sprained her foot and is hospitalized."
"So, you went to the hospital?" It was the first time Ivan had seen such dedication from him, closely scrutinizing Andrew.
"Yes!" Andrew proudly handed over the contract. "I was worried she might run away, so I went to see her."
Ivan, however, wasn't particularly pleased. Out of the four cartoonists he had in mind, only one had signed. As the CEO, he couldn't help but feel a bit disappointed. As he reached for the contract from the folder, the girl's identity card slipped out and fell to the ground.
Ivan lowered his gaze, but before he could pick it up, Andrew hurriedly grabbed it. "I'll make a copy for her. I'll drop it off when I have time."
With the contract in one hand, Ivan took the identity card from Andrew's hand, intending to see how old the girl was. When he saw the name, a flicker of recognition crossed his brow. "Xu Jinyi?"
Andrew leaned in to see the name for the first time, Xu Jinyi, and couldn't help but be puzzled. "Do you know her?"
"Summer, Xu Jinyi...?" Ivan uttered softly. He raised his eyes, suddenly clinging to a glimmer of hope. Could this be Spencer's first love's younger sister? Judging by her age, this girl was only 20 years old and clearly not Summer. Although he hadn't seen the person herself, it was apparent from the ID photo that she wasn't Summer. But the name... could it be a coincidence?
Andrew also suddenly understood something, as he had been researching Summer's information previously. "Is... is this really just a coincidence?"
"Go check this girl's household registration, see if she has a sister," Ivan commanded immediately.
"Yes!" Andrew nodded and quickly turned to check.
For Ivan, it seemed luck was on his side, as obtaining this information required minimal effort. He personally made two copies of the identity card for the company's records.
Sitting in his office chair, he gazed calmly at the girl in the photo on the ID card, linking her to the images of Summer in his mind. Soon, Andrew entered the room, and Ivan looked up. "Did you find out?" Content is property © NôvelDrama.Org.
Andrew, efficient in his work, approached the desk sadly and softly reported, "Mr. Marsh, Xu Jinyi only has her parents, she is an only child."
The slight hope in Ivan's heart was shattered, but he quickly regained his composure. Could there really be such a coincidence in this world?
"What about Summer? Have you found her whereabouts?" Ivan handed the girl's identity card to Andrew and inquired.
Andrew gingerly accepted the card and nervously replied, "I've been searching tirelessly but haven't found her yet."
"Let me know as soon as you find anything." With that, Ivan shifted his gaze back to his computer, preparing for a meeting.
"Understood." Andrew felt the same sense of urgency.
Early morning.
Tristan sat at the helm in the Clarke Corp meeting room, listening to the reports from the directors and occasionally offering his own insights, which were always sharp and well-received. Monica, on the other hand, was at the piano training school, fulfilling her princess duties by diligently teaching the children how to play the piano, remaining dedicated to the terms of her contract.
