Chapter 694 A Job At The Adania Medical Research Institute.
Cherise and Damien decided to postpone their planned outing until the following week after the incident that occurred yesterday.
Damien would be occupied with his business matters, while Cherise would be fully
engrossed in her new job. Their children also expressed the need for some time to adjust to their new surroundings.
On the second day in Adania, Cherise reached out to the doctor recommended by the director of Lermille Hospital.
“Are you Dr. Shaw?” she asked.
The doctor on the other end responded eagerly, “You’ve finally contacted us!”
We represent the Adania Medical Research Institute. We were thrilled when Dr. Keeples recommended you. We didn’t expect you to reach out to us!”
Cherise was taken aback and stammered, “You mean… your institute is in Adania?”
“Yes, indeed!”
The doctor on the other end of the line responded amiably, “Dr. Shaw, would you available for an interview?”
“If you’re out of town, we can certainly wait…”
“There’s no need for that.”
Cherise hummed with excitement, “I can make it this afternoon.”
Cherise arrived promptly at two o’clock in the afternoon.

The institute’s director, Dr. Penn, warmly greeted her, “Dr. Shaw, Dr. Keeples has spoken highly of your accomplishments and experience in the medical field…”
“Today, we have invited you here to familiarize yourself with our institute. If you have no objections, we can proceed with finalizing the contract,” Dr. Penn stated, catching Cherise off guard momentarily.
“Alright.”
She was visibly excited but composed and asserted, “You should review my records before making a decision to hire me.”

“I am not a conventional doctor; my past may potentially cause complications in the future.”
“I understand, I understand!”
Dr. Penn smiled gently, “I’m not concerned.”
“All I know is that Dr. Shaw’s contributions to the medical field far surpass those of her peers, and that’s what I value.”
“As for the past you mentioned, I don’t believe it’s true; hence, it doesn’t bother me.”
Cherise was initially taken aback, but eventually, she was persuaded by Dr. Penn and signed
the contract.
Finding a boss who appreciates and understands you is even rarer in a world where good job opportunities are scarce.
Cherise felt this opportunity was too good to pass up, so she signed the contract.
“Dr. Penn.”
The secretary rushed over as Cherise left, impressed, and exclaimed, “You did an amazing job convincing her with just a few words!”
“I’ll inform Mr. Lenoir right away! Our institute’s funding will undoubtedly double next year!”
Dr. Penn nodded and said, “Go ahead.”
“But Dr. Penn.”
The secretary glanced at Cherise again and fretted, “A woman with no skills and a questionable history…”
“You went all out for the funding…”
“Silence!”
Dr. Penn glared at the secretary and barked, “If she’s incompetent, then you are useless!”
“Go and assess her accomplishments instead of daydreaming here!”
Feeling chastised and confused, the secretary asked, “If she is competent and capable, why did Mr. Lenoir have to go to such lengths to recommend her to us?”
Dr. Penn responded nonchalantly, “Maybe because our institute is closer to Mr. Lenoir s residence…”

As Cherise was about to hail a taxi to leave the institute, a red Porsche pulled up beside her.
Ursula’s haughty face emerged from the car. “Cherise Shaw, right?”
