Chapter 1036 (1/2)
Downtown Boston.
At the Harvard Business School Campus on the South Bank of Charles River, Maria Rozin is translating a Soviet era economic policy document with several colleagues in her office. Katrina, the woman who came to the United States with her, knocked on the door.
When we saw Katrina, we all looked a little different.
During this period of time, Maria's specific identity has become something that colleagues around her are curious about. After all, there are more than 2000 faculty members in Harvard University, but few of them have full-time drivers.
Because she told her in advance that if Katrina didn't have something special, she wouldn't come to disturb herself. She was so confused that she stood up and walked over: ”Kate, what's the matter?”
The female guard stepped back a little and came to the corridor. Then she whispered to Maria, ”Mr. westrow is coming. It's outside.”
”Ah...”
The vague guess came true. Maria called out subconsciously, then quickly covered her mouth.
After quickly calming down, Maria put down her hand, turned to the office behind her and said to the guard, ”I There are still 10 minutes left to finish work. ”
Katrina wanted to give her hostess a white eye.
What kind of excuse is that?
Maria blurted out, also realized that this reason is too bad, can you let him wait outside, what's more, even if it's delayed for 10 minutes, then what?
Maria came to the United States at the beginning of this month and started her career directly at Harvard.
However, because the new semester has already started, we have missed the course schedule and have to wait for the next semester to start the teaching task. Women didn't want to be free in the second half of the year, so they chose one of the job vacancies offered by Harvard to provide translation support for an on campus academic team studying the political economy of the former Soviet Union.
This is a very flexible job, because there are several graduate students as assistant translators, she usually even does not have a problem.
The reason is not tenable, so I have to say hello to my colleagues in the office and leave ahead of time.
went out as like as two peas in the office building, and Maria followed Katerina through a long passage. He soon saw two identical black cars parked at an intersection. The two people approached, and one of the drivers came down to help her pull the door open.
Maria didn't want too many people around to notice, so she got into the car without much hesitation.
Then it was found that there were two people in the back seat. In addition to him sitting in the middle, there was urijana meletskova on the other side.
Without waiting for her to say anything, the door was closed.
The car starts quickly. Simon, who is crowded between two women, looks at Maria at a loss with great interest. The woman is wearing a pair of rimless glasses, her blonde hair is rolled up, showing a white neck, a long Khaki coat on her upper body, slim black trousers on her lower hem, and a pair of black high heels on her feet.
Originally temperament intellectual woman, so match down, can't help looking much younger.
Maria felt the little man's look around her. She only felt that her eyes seemed to be warm. She felt a burning sensation when she saw everything. After more than ten seconds of silence, she finally lost the battle first. She took the initiative to open her mouth, gently tilted her head and looked at him: ”you, Mr. westero, hello.”
Simon listened to the woman and said with a smile, ”Yeah, it's like we've met for the first time.”
”Well Well
”I guess you don't have your own outfit right now.”
Maria didn't expect that he would suddenly mention this. She sincerely replied, ”it's my daughter...”
Only opened a head, because of some inexplicable embarrassed, once again stopped.
”Oh, Annette, I know,” Simon said, adding, ”you could have brought Annie here this time. Why did you let her stay in Ukraine?”
Maria always thinks it's impolite to talk without looking at each other, but she's embarrassed to turn to him anyway. After all, it's just the smell of the men around her that makes her want to jump out of the car and run away. At this time, listening to Simon talking about her daughter, she has the same feeling again.
Mainly Her daughter is 21 years old.
However, as for the man's question, she had to answer it. She once again tilted her head a little, looked at him, quickly turned back and said, ”I hope she can finish her undergraduate course in Ukraine and come back to the United States.”
Said and inexplicably some strange little emotion.
At the beginning, Maria accepted a certain situation with the idea of sacrificing herself. She only hoped that her four children would have a bright future. Just like her eldest daughter, she wanted to help her daughter study abroad and be the best school.
I didn't expect that she didn't need to mention these things at all, so I took the initiative to help.
And they're all the best.
This also made Maria change her mind temporarily, and decided that her daughter would stay in Ukraine to finish her undergraduate course. After getting her degree, she would come out to study abroad. After all, it was only one year.As for the three younger sons, this time they came together.
Simon nodded after hearing the speech. In fact, he had just read some information about the two women and their children around him. He didn't say any more at this time. Instead, he explained to Maria, who still didn't know the reason: ”there will be a reception next time. Many people will come and take you to get to know each other.”
Maria pauses and reacts, her face flushes.
This is
He, how Don't you worry about people knowing?
Moreover, once she participated in the reception, she and urijana on the other side could not tell their identities. Even after repeated psychological construction, Maria had quietly accepted some things, and ultimately did not want it to be known by too many outsiders.
Hesitating for a moment, she finally gathered up her courage and looked at the little man next to her again. Maria said tentatively, ”well, I Can we not go? ”
Simon shook his head. ”No.”
