"Just decide on what you want and order first. When you''re hungry, I''ll send it over." Elliot had been busy the entire morning. He was already hungry.


    "Okay, let me think," Avery said, then immediately felt toozy to do so. "I''ll have what you''re having. Our taste is mostly the same."


    "You''re just toozy to think, right? What are you doing?" Judging by her tone, Elliot could tell that she was a little distracted.


    Avery picked up her cup of water and drank some to soothe her throat. "I didn''t do much this morning. I was checking up on the tea culture of Ylore. I have never heard about it before. The tea culture in Ylore is quite famous."


    "Yes. The tea culture in Ylore is not only about drinking tea. There are tea performances, too. I''ve seen the performances, but I can''t differentiate the tea." Elliot has seen a tea performance at Ylore before, but he had no interest in tea.N?velDrama.Org owns all content.


    Avery heard what he said and replied curtly, "You fooled around quite a lot back in the day, right?"


    Elliot asked, "How do you want me to answer that question?"


    Avery replied, "Honestly!"


    Elliot said, "In Ylore, tea performances are a legitimate profession. It''s not what you think. Of course, some people would use tea performances as a cover up for illegal activities, but I was never involved in that."


    Avery said, "Oh, then why do you sound nervous?"


    "Do I?" Elliot picked up his ss and drank some water. "You looked into this because you saw Juliet Sutton''s resume, didn''t you? Are you nning to hire her?"


    Avery said, "I saw that she was a Ylorean, so I looked into it more. But I was distracted by the teapetition. From the information I have gotten, those who study tea performance have to begin doing so at a young age. They even have to follow a teacher. It''s troublesome!"


    "It seems so, but I''m not too sure. Why are you suddenly interested in this? Even if you hire her as your assistant, you don''t need her to perform for you," Elliot teased.


    "I never said I wanted to hire her! I''m only gaining more knowledge." Avery insisted.


    "Useless knowledge." Elliotnded


    another blow. "If you''re interested in


    her, you can invite her for an interview. Wouldn''t it be more informative if she spoke to you about tea performances rather than


    you searching about it online?"


    "You''re right! But I haven''t decided whether I want to interview her or not. After all, she applied to yourpany. She wants to be your assistant..."


    "How do you know she did not just send her resume everywhere?" Elliot''s words surprised Avery.


    "Then... Why don''t you get your HR manager to call her and see if she''s willing toe in for an interview. If I contact her out of the blue, it would feel rather abrupt." Avery decided to follow her heart and meet up with Juliet Sutton.


    "Okay." From her tone, Elliot could sense that Avery was very impressed by Juliet.


    If Juliet was willing to work for Avery, she would probably pass the interview.


    In the neighboring city, while Madam was having her meal, she received a call from the Sterling Group''s human resources department.


    "Miss Sutton, hello. I am the HR


    manager of Sterling Group. I''m


    calling you to inform you that you do


    not meet our recruitment


    requirements. I''m sorry, but you


    won''t be able to be our presiden


    assistant." The HR manager continued, "But our boss''s wife is also hiring an assistant. Her requirements are slightly lower. Your education level is high enough for


    her. I wonder if you''re willing to let


    me send your resume over to her?"


    Juliet''s mood fluctuated massively in a matter of minutes. "Is your boss Avery Tate?"


    "Yes, she is also hiring an assistant right now. Have you handed your resume to them?"


    "No, I never saw the hiring notice from Tate Industries." Juliet was a little nervous, but grateful at the same time. "Please send my resume over. Thank you!"
