Chapter 20 Chloe Is Despicable
The previous security guard had been replaced by two honest and kindly–looking young men.
Spotting Chloe looking around, they thought she had lost her way and approached her.
“No, no, I’m not lost. I’m here for an interview,” she explained. After a short pause, she continued, “I didn’t see you two yesterday when I came for an interview. Do you work on a shift system?”
“I was taking care of the warehouse yesterday and just transferred here today,” one of the guards replied.
“What about the guard who was previously in charge of this area?” Chloe asked out of curiosity. The man on the other side hesitated for a moment, scratching his head and struggling to find an answer. Chloe suddenly realized what had happened and was somewhat shocked. It seemed that he had been fired.
Initially, she had come for the high salary Fairlight offered, but now she felt that the
company’s management was willing to own up to their mistakes instead of covering up for their own people.
After yesterday’s commotion, a few people had been called back for a second interview today so the entire process was swift. Chloe easily passed the written test and went directly to the interview area. By the time the interview was over, it was already afternoon.
“Ms. Chloe, we’re glad you came to interview with Fairlight. This meeting is now concluded and we’ll inform you of the results tomorrow by email.”
“Okay, thank you,” Chloe replied. She walked out of Fairlight and breathed out a huge sigh of relief. This was a proper interview process for a big company. It was completely different from the chaos yesterday.
In the high–rise office building, Joseph stood in front of the floor–to–ceiling window. He was wearing a coffee–colored trench coat that accentuated his tall and slender figure. His white shirt was buttoned all the way up and his fitting black slacks showed off his straight, long legs.
The deep–set eyes under his bangs made him look unapproachable. He gazed down at the tiny human figures below and took a sip of water from the glass handed to him by his assistant.
“Mr. Joseph, Ms. Chloe has finished her interview and HR says that her qualifications are good. They’ll notify her tomorrow morning that she has passed the interview,” Lucas reported.
“Good,” Joseph replied with indifference. He was not surprised by this outcome. He had taken a look at Chloe’s resume. Even if Fairlight did not hire her, other companies would.
Lucas, who was watching from the side, assumed that he had made a correct guess. Joseph just wanted to give Chloe a second chance because he valued her talent.
But did this not mean they would have to work together in the future?
Joseph glanced at Lucas and understood what his assistant was thinking. He sneered, “Even if she joins the company, we will never cross paths.”
This was something that would only happen if she made it into high–level management.
Lucas scratched his head and laughed foolishly, “You’re right, sir.”
When William learned that Chloe had passed the interview through his ex–colleague, he called Melody and berated her harshly.
Melody was stunned. She did not know why William was scolding her but she dared not to talk back. “Don’t be angry, Uncle William. I know how to get it back at that b*tch.” Published by Nôv'elD/rama.Org.
“How?” he asked.
“Just wait and see. I promise you won’t be disappointed.”
Melody called Ava and told her that Chloe had been accepted into Fairlight.
“I’ll give you the business card of a paparazzo. Add him and send him the video of Chloe at the interview site. It’s likely that it’ll go viral tonight.”
“But what if something goes wrong?” Melody hesitated, not wanting to shoulder the blame.
“What could possibly go wrong?” Ava burst out laughing. “Chloe is just a homewrecker, and honestly, I think she’s even worse than that. Do you really expect the old man behind her to come to her defense?”
Then, her tone changed. “Honestly, it’s kind of a pity.”
“What’s the matter?” Melody asked.
“If you could get into Fairlight, with your looks and figure, you could easily land a golden bachelor. Even the mysterious person behind Fairlight might fall under your spell. But now…
“Sigh, my little sister is just despicable.”
Melody felt a slight ache in her heart as she realized how her dream had been shattered. She gritted her teeth. “I’ll contact the paparazzo right now.”
