Chapter 21: Chapter 21
The senior salesman who watched Erwin and Ruby leave in conversation, happily chatting, felt profound regret, but it was too late for remorse they should not have looked down on him in the first place.
This was the first time Erwin was driving a Ferrari, which naturally made him both nervous and excited.
"Ruby, where shall we go? I'll take you for a spin."
"Do you remember the place our club used to visit during college?" Said Ruby nostalgically after buckling her seatbelt.
"The Wood Hotel? Then let's head there," Erwin replied. It had been a while since he visited the venue. He used to dine there with college friends, but hadn't been back since graduation and starting his job. Now, reuniting with an old friend like Ruby, he naturally wanted to revisit to reminisce about his college days.
Erwin drove the newly purchased black Ferrari, and the roaring engine filled him with a rush of excitement.
The Ferrari zoomed down the highway, drawing the gaze and envy of many.
"Erwin, when are you planning to marry Rose?" Ruby asked hesitantly from the passenger seat, feeling very nervous about the topic.
"I've broken up with her. She's with a rich man now and dumped me because I had no money," Erwin chuckled slightly, indicating he didn't care much about it anymore.
"Really? That is her loss," Ruby felt unreasonably relieved and a touch happy on hearing this.
"What about you? You're so pretty, have you found someone?" Erwin remembered back in college Ruby was pursued by many guys but always declined them. She had many rich and handsome suitors, yet she rejected them all, saying she was looking for someone who resonated with her thoughts.
"It's pretty rare today to find someone who truly loves literature , much less someone from college who can talk about it and discuss stories and novels with you," Ruby said, somewhat missing the college days. She had slowly suppressed her own dream due to the harsh reality of life; otherwise, how could she have ended up as a car salesperson.
"The college days are indeed the best! Ruby, how about I introduced you to a job related to what you love?" Erwin pondered for a moment. With Ruby's innocent personality, she wasn't really cut out for car sales, and was possible the other salespersons would bully her again.
"Really? What kind of job?" Ruby had long detested this kind of sales work, only choosing it for survival.
"Working as a screenwriter!" Erwin had the idea that he would return to his company soon, and a successful program production needed a good script. Though Ruby had never scripted before, she had written novels and stories in college and had imagination and a style bot shared by others. With a bit of training, Erwin believed Ruby could certainly become a good professional screenwriter.
"A screenwriter, is that possible?" Ruby was eagar to try. She loved anything to do with storytelling, and the role of a screenwriter had long appealed to her.
"Yes, I have faith in your abilities. You'll surely thrive quickly, and besides, we'll be coworkers in the future, so if there's anything you don't know, just ask me," Erwin assured her with a smile.
"Then I'm in your hands." Ruby felt a flicker of joy at the prospect of working in the same place as Erwin.
