As Ste approached Keegan, he immediately reached out to remove her sunsses. She frowned
and was clearly unhappy with the gesture. So, she asked, “Why did you take off my sunsses?”
Keegan responded, “You’re wearing sunsses on stage. It distracts the audience’s attention away
from the recruitment talk.”
Ste snorted. “Yeah, you can control me. But, can you also control the audience’s attention?”
“Pfft,” Aldor could not help butugh. “Madam is truly a performer. She has a bit ofedic talent.”
But, as soon as Keegan shot Aldor a nce, Aldor cleared his throat, trying to act natural.
Keegan folded the sunsses and put them in his pocket. “Ste, sit next to me and behave yourself.
Don’t talk nonsense.”
“Okay,” Surprisingly, Ste did not argue with Keegan this time.
At three in the afternoon, the recruitment talk had officially begun.
Mr. Jackman started by giving a brief introduction to the coboration between the
Vinci Rivera Group and the university. Then, he introduced each member of the team who came from
the Vinci Rivera Group. The atmosphere at the scene quickly became engaged.
Jackson and Keegan made brief speeches about the coboration and then handed the stage over to
Sophia.

Sophia lowered the microphone and spoke gently. “Hello, Trinity University officials and fellow students.
My name is Sophia and I am the speaker for the Vinci Rivera
Group’s ‘Rising Star’ project. I’m 22 years old and currently working in the operations department at the
Vinci Rivera Group. Are there any students here around my age? Raise your hand. Let’s see how
many of you are there…”
Sophia’s voice was very sweet, and her pace was neither fast nor slow. There was no cadence or
exaggerated intonation when she was speaking. She sounded like she was chatting with a good friend.
Such an interactive presentation could engage people easily.
Ste lightly tapped her water ss as if she was marking time, or maybe she was showing a bored
gesture.
“I’m talented? No, I’m not talented,” Sophia chuckled and said, “I was pretty lucky.
When I was really young, I was abandoned at the doorstep of a welfare home. I don’t remember much,
but I think it was in the middle of winter, and it was freezing outside with snow on the ground. They had
taken me for a bike ride. I remember the wind was really loud in my ears. I keptining about
being cold, and they promised to get me new clothes and gave me a roasted sweet potato. They told
me to wait there, but I waited all day and night. And, they never came back to get me…”
Keegan’s face darkened. Ste nced at Keegan and then looked away.’ Sophia really can’t bring
herself to delete the content that Keegan crossed out,’ she thought.
Sophia talked about being abandoned, brought in by the welfare home, and the bullying she had
experienced there. She concluded, “I love the saying,’ What doesn’t kill me makes me stronger.’ The
way I see it, life doesn’t always give you a good hand, but it’s up to you to y it well. I owe a lot to my
foster parents for their love and support. They gave me the opportunity to get an education and showed
me how to make the most out of what I had. Looking back now, the tough times I went through seem
like a distant memory. I still talk to friends about my experiences in the welfare home, but I’ve learned
to let go.”
After taking twenty minutes to share her “tragic past”, only then did Sophia finally get to the point and
began to talk about the “Rising Star” project. When she got to the second half of her presentation, the
atmosphere in the audience was full of motivation. Sophia became more and more at ease as things
were going exactly how she had wanted.
