Chapter 11


    After returning home, J began applying for a job. After the conversation with her adoptive parents


    that morning, J understood she couldn’t rely on the money they had promised to give her.


    J had majored in design. She had graduated this year with flying colors. She was a popr face in


    the university because of her outstanding design talent. She was supposed to apply for a job like her


    ssmates earlier this year. However, her application was dyed because she had been looking after


    Hannah. The old maid was ill, and taking care of her was more important to her.


    After sorting out her portfolio and resume, she sent them to reputablepanies.


    Considering J was a gold medalist and had received several des, she received interview


    calls in a few days. “Oh my God! This is unbelievable!” She mped her mouth with excitement and


    stared at theputer.


    A ck invitation was shing on the screen. It was an interview invitation from the Larson Group.


    Têxt ? N?velDrama.Org.


    Everyone revered the design department of the Larson Group. Fashion and jewelry design were just


    one of the many industries the Larson Group was engaged in. They were a pioneer in dealing with


    multiple domains in the country. Their operations expanded all over the world.


    Brandon Larson, the CEO of the Larson Group, was a legend in the industry. He was young, talented,


    and the sole reason for the Larson Group’s sess.


    However, the man was an enigma. He had barely appeared in front of the public. People practically


    knew nothing about him. Only the senior executives of the Larson Group knew what he looked like.


    Other people had little knowledge about him.


    J, too, was curious to know about him.


    Apart from the interview invitation, thepany had also sent an examination paper. J had to


    finish it before attending the interview.


    A frown lined J’s forehead as she read the questions: none of them were from the books she had


    read. They were all tricky questions that even design experts couldn’t answer.


    However, the Larson Group required more for their staff and manpower than the otherpanies in


    the industry. That was why J wanted to join the Larson Group. It would offer her the ideal


    experience.


    After finishing the examination, J left for the Larson Group.


    Her eyes widened as she looked at a silver building towering into the clouds.


    The translucent ss at the door reflected J’s slender figure.


    The receptionist gave J a brief introduction handbook of the Larson Group and asked her to wait in


    the waiting area.


    The building had silver, ck, and white shiny walls. Fashionable men and women decked up in sleek


    outfits walked past each other.


    Meanwhile, a handsome man, surrounded by several people, walked into the private elevator.


    J’s eyes narrowed; she felt the man looked familiar. However, before she could get a closer look,


    someone called her name. It was J’s turn to attend the interview.


    A man and two women dressed in formal clothes were seated on the other side of the desk.


    “Our interviewer ine Sellers has graduated from the same university as yours. You two are


    schoolmates.” The woman on the left had straight chestnut hair. She picked up J’s resume and


    cast a curious look at her colleague.


    ine regained herposure and looked at J. “What a coincidence! I was indeed Miss Lind’s


    senior in school,” she said tly.


    J’s eyes fell on the woman in the middle.


    She soon remembered they shared a strange past.


    One of the senior schoolmates had a crush on J. However, ine liked him. Therefore, she hated


    J for it and even caused trouble for herter. J had no interest in the man, so she didn’t care


    about it. After graduation, they all parted ways, and J never saw ine until now.


    ine pursed her ruddy lips and nodded. “Miss Lind, you have an impressive resume. But I don’t think


    you’d be the right fit here because we are looking for experienced candidates. Where is the


    examination paper we sent to you earlier?”


    J took the examination paper from her bag and gave it to the interviewers. The male interviewer


    took it. His brows knitted together as he flipped the pages. “Well, ine, did you send the wrong


    examination paper to her? This one is not for new graduates…”


    It turned out that ine had purposefully sent the wrong examination paper to J along with the


    interview invitation, thinking she would back out from the interview.


    J knew that ine’s sweet smile was just a facade. The woman had always tried ruining her life.


    ine smiled and said, “If Miss Lind is capable enough, she would have been able to crack the


    examination.”


    “You are right, Miss Sellers. Please see how I’ve fared,” said J.


    “Well done! In fact, this examination paper is only for candidates with more than three years’ work


    experience.” The other two interviewers looked at J in awe.


    ine didn’t utter a word. She stared at the examination paper, shaking her head in exasperation. She


    couldn’t believe that J had cleared the examination. Even some senior designers found it difficult to


    answer the questions, yet J had got it right.


    The other two interviewers asked J a few more questions, and she effortlessly answered them.


    After J left, the two interviewers couldn’t stop praising her. “She is a young, insightful designer. Our


    company needs someone like her.”


    ine threw J’s resume aside, her eyes zing with anger and disgust. “She is not right for the


    Larson Group!”
