My Wife is a Hacker

Chapter 3101

When Ellar realized Doretta was crashing his home to get settled in San Joto, he thought, 'Having an

extra person hanging around is gonna be a bit of a hassle. Finding her a job might help her move out

sooner.'

"Got any job preferences? I could lend a hand with the search," Ellar offered, his brow furrowing.

"Thanks. I've got a master's in management. Gonna scope out what the local job scene's after," Doretta

replied, indicating she wanted to suss out the job market first.

Doretta noticed Ellar's expression and laughed. ' You didn't think I was looking for a job in

housekeeping or caregiving, did you?"

From Ellar's reaction, she had guessed his initial assumption. She understood that El la r probably

thought of her as just someone from rural areas. But if she had no skills or qualifications, she wouldn't

have bothered coming all the way to San Joto; she could have easily found a job back home.

Ellar felt a bit embarrassed; he had indeed thought so initially, but Doretta's education and field of study

had quickly corrected his assumption.

"Have you sent out your resume yet?" Ellar asked, trying to shift the awkward situation.

"I've applied to a few places and am waiting to hear back," Doretta said, not really upset with Ellar's

initial assumption, and responded with a light smile.

Ellar, feeling apologetic, offered, "If those companies don't pan out, I'll help you search more. Well

make sure you land a job you're happy with."

"Thank you, Ellar," Doretta politely thanked him.

Emma watched them both, her eyes shining with satisfaction. She even shot Dexter a look that said,

"See how well they get along?"

But Dexter just shook his head slightly.

He didn't think their compatibility could be judged so easily. Doretta had just arrived in San Joto, likely

not interested in dating yet, and Ell ar didn't seem to be either.

Emma caught Dexter's meaning and rolled her eyes, thinking to herself that feelings might grow over

time.

"Let me show you to your room, Doretta," Emma said warmly, leading her away.

As they left, Ellar finally relaxed and asked, "Dad, what's going on?"

Dexter explained, "A few days ago, we received a message asking US to look after her for a while.

"Your mom thought it would be easier for Doretta to stay with US since she came to San Joto alone This content © Nôv/elDr(a)m/a.Org.

and is still getting used to everything here.

"We'll give Doretta some time to get to know the area and settle into her job before we discuss her

plans for the future."

Ellar looked surprised. "So, if she doesn't leave, does that mean she'll stay with us forever?"

"Of course not. Eventually, she'll want to find a boyfriend, get married, you know," Dexter said, thinking

Ellar was jumping to conclusions.

Ellar was annoyed at the idea of waiting for Doretta to get married before she moved out, as if his

parents had taken in a daughter.

After Emma had helped Doretta settle in, dinner was ready.

The dinner table felt a bit awkward with all four of them there.

Ellar kept his head down, focused on his meal.

Emma kicked him under the table a few times, trying to get his attention, but he didn't react.

Finally, Emma gave Ell ar an exasperated look and took charge, engaging Doretta in conversation to

lighten the mood.

"I'm finished eating. I have some work to do, so I'll be in the study," El I ar announced, glancing at

Doretta. "You guys can take your time."

After Ellar left, Emma couldn't hide her frustration.

Doretta smiled at her and said, "Aunt Emma, I'm finished eating too."

"Are you sure? Did you have enough?” Emma asked, concerned.

"Yes, I'm full," Doretta replied politely, nodding.
