Chapter 11 I Might as Well Quit

Chloe was seething with anger.Her emotions had reached their boiling point after days of being suppressed, and the pent-up frustration in her chest made it hard for her to breathe. She had been working tirelessly overseas, putting in long hours and negotiating deal after deal, yet not only was she betrayed in the end, but she could not afford to pay for a meal now.'How dare they do this to me!'Filled with rage, she hailed a cab and headed straight to Artron Enterprise, which was owned by her family.When she arrived, she saw everyone leaving a meeting. Ava was trailing behind Benjamin, asking him questions about his work. Benjamin was gentle and patient as he answered her queries, and they looked like a father and daughter who loved each other deeply.This was an entirely new sight for Chloe, for she had never felt this kind of warmth and affection before. She clenched her fists so tightly that her knuckles were turning white. Her eyes stinging with tears, but she maintained a

Chapter 12 We Just Got Our Marriage Certificate Yesterday

Ava's eyes lit up when she heard what Chloe said.However, she suppressed her excitement and stepped forward to stop her. "Coco, don't be so impulsive. This is your home. Where will you go if you quit?"I have some savings. I'll give you my bank card when we get home tonight. Consider it your salary, okay?""Why do you still want to help her? If she wants to leave, just let her leave. Nobody wants her here anyway," Benjamin said.He felt frustrated because the deal with Lionel had fallen through and he now had to handle Chloe’s mess. Knowing that Chloe would not apologize to Lionel, he did not want to deal with her anymore. He called for the security guard and ushered Ava into the office.Soon, the guards rushed in and tried to drag Chloe out."Don't touch me! I can walk on my own!"She took a deep breath, straightened her back, and walked out of Artron in big strides. However, she was not expecting to run into Jake, who was here to see Ava.When Jake saw the dark expression on

Chapter 13 Mystery Man

Emily's shoulders slumped as she said, "I'm sorry, Coco. There's only one position that's suitable for you and we just filled it today."But the headquarters of Fairlight has moved to our country, and it's not far from here. I read online that they're recruiting an Estrenian translation specialist. Your Estrenian is good, and you have the certification. You'll definitely be up to the task. Why don't you give it a try?"Are you talking about the Fairlight Group that made a comeback a few years ago?" Chloe asked, her eyes fixed on Emily."Yes! That's the one!" Emily said as she pointed to the tall building in the north. "It's right there. It's not very far from here. I heard that they offer great benefits. If you land the job, we can go out for dinner every day after work!”Chloe followed Emily's finger and looked to the center of the city, where the tallest commercial building there had been transformed into a structure with two prominent words—Fairlight Group—written in black and g

Chapter 14 Not Just Anyone Can Work at Fairlight

Joseph looked at her coldly and replied, "No.""Okay…"Chloe did not dwell on the matter too much, thinking that she must have been hearing things."Are all your clothes this revealing?" Joseph suddenly asked in a cold voice.Perplexed, she looked down at her nightgown, which reached her calves. "Revealing? What do you mean by revealing?""Your collar," he answered.Chloe was speechless. "Only a little of my collarbone is shown…"Joseph was not much older than Jake. She assumed that he was at most eight years older than him, so why was he so conservative?"Others won't see a thing now, but what if you're lying down?" Joseph stared at her, his magnetic voice pleasing to the ear.Chloe was stunned when she heard what he said and suddenly realized what the closing sound from earlier was all about. Her cheeks grew hot but kept calm and met his gaze. "If I were lying down, it‘d only be in my own room. Unless...you have some sinister plot to secretly watch me."Joseph laughed and s

Chapter 15 I’m Not Scared of You Since I Have Nothing to Lose

The interview began with a written test, followed by a face-to-face interview.Chloe excelled in the written test and submitted her paper confidently. As she was leaving, she noticed that there were many blanks on Melody’s test paper. However, Melody was calmly admiring her freshly painted nails and showed no signs of concern.Suddenly, Chloe had a feeling that passing the interview would be an uphill battle for her.Sure enough, when the results of the written test were announced, Chloe had not been selected and had received the lowest score among all the candidates."This is impossible. I couldn't have scored so low!" Chloe confronted the interviewer. "I want to see my test paper and I want to know a clear explanation of where points were deducted."The interviewer, William Grace, stood up and arrogantly replied, "Each interviewer has their own criteria, but one thing is consistent: low scores represent failure. Please don't make a scene and leave immediately. Our time is valuab

Chapter 16 Tell Him to Get Out

Lucas remembered that HR was holding an interview. He assumed that this was the resume of someone who had failed to pass.Just as he was about to toss the resume in the bin, he was suddenly stopped in his tracks."Hold on.”Upon hearing the familiar name on the resume, Joseph furrowed his brows and reached out to take it from Lucas.At the top floor of the building, the HR manager nervously handed over a stack of interviewee information forms to the CEO’s assistant. Lucas took them and pushed open the door to the office. The HR manager strained to get a look but did not manage to see anything and left disappointed."Find out more about this person named Chloe Johnson," Joseph ordered emotionlessly."Right away, sir," Lucas replied, and within ten minutes, he had found Chloe's information. "Mr. Joseph, here’s her information. She was rejected in the first round.""Given her qualifications, that shouldn't have happened," Joseph said as he laid the previously crumpled resume flat o

Chapter 17 Chloe the Homewrecker

Finding a young and resilient person with a C2 certification in Estrenian was not easy these days, as many young people tend to quit their jobs at the slightest difficulty and value their freedom greatly.Perhaps Joseph was just cherishing talent?William was leisurely sipping on a coffee in his office when he received notice of his dismissal. The HR manager placed the termination letter in front of him, and it took him a while to realize what was happening."Are you kidding me? I've been with Fairlight for fifteen years, and I’m being fired just like that?!" William shouted.The HR manager had harbored resentment toward William for quite some time. His smirk conveyed a sense of satisfaction as he said, "I'm not responsible for this decision. It was made by the CEO."William's spirits plummeted as he spoke, "You may dismiss me but I demand an explanation and compensation.""There's no compensation," the manager chuckled. "As for the reason, I'm not quite sure. But many things don

Chapter 18 You’re the Best, Jojo

It was nine at night by the time Joseph got home.The villa was dark and quiet. He changed into his house slippers at the entrance and walked past Chloe's room, stopping for a moment before raising his hand to knock a few times.Chloe's hoarse voice came from inside, "Just a moment."As she spoke, a ray of light shone through the crack under the door. After a few seconds, Chloe got to the door. Following a brief pause, she turned the handle and the door creaked open. However, her usual beaming expression had vanished, replaced instead by puffy, reddened eyes and nose, a clear indication that she had been crying for quite some time.Looking at Chloe in this manner was unsettling for Joseph. She appeared disheartened, akin to a drooping flower drenched by a storm."Have you been crying?" he asked.Chloe sniffled and turned her face to the side. "No.""I'm not blind," he replied calmly.Chloe was in no mood to argue with him and asked weakly, "What do you want?"Joseph froze for

Chapter 19 Another Interview

"A security guard?"Lucas had not told Joseph that a security guard had been involved as well.Chloe nodded, and as she recounted the incident, she felt aggravated. Rolling up her sleeves, she showed him the scratches."This is what he did to me. There’s a wound on my calf too."The two scabs on her fair skin looked like damage on a priceless piece of artwork, and the sight was jarring.As she continued to complain about Fairlight, his expression grew increasingly dark. Chloe only noticed something was amiss with Joseph's expression after she had finished venting. She cautiously prodded him with her finger and asked, "What's the matter?"'Is he a friend to the CEO of Fairlight?'"Nothing," Joseph replied."Okay…"Joseph lowered his gaze and suppressed his emotions. "Go to bed early, and please wash the dishes.""Sure," Chloe said readily. She did not find any issue in taking care of the dishes since Joseph was the one who cooked.The lights were still on at the Johnson resid

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
