Chapter 8 Failed Interview
Jean started her stay in the condo; Ben let her stay in the master bedroom. During the day he raced by the tracks; in the evenings he brought back dinner.
Every night as she laid on the bed, Jean would recall the cold and sharp glaze of Edgar; it pierced her heart but she would try to recover and calm her emotions.
The Eyer's motto: One should always find a way up.
She could not let herself stay low.
One morning, after cleaning up, Jean dressed up and was about to leave the condo when she stumbled into Ben who had prepared breakfast.
"Where are you going?" Ben stopped her.
"I have an interview." Jean changed into high heels and blew him a flying kiss, "Wish me luck, Benny."
"Why don't you have breakfast before leaving?"
"Too late." Jean shook her head and left.
Ben was speechless but he was also well aware of Jean's temper; she was strongly independent and hated relying on the providence of others, a few words from him would not change it.
The only thing he could do was protect her.The company was within the top Fortune Global 500 list and the position was sales marketing. Jean knew that she had both the looks and the accreditation; the position was a shoo-in for her, and even better, it was a high paid job.
The HR personnel was very satisfied with her qualifications, what more Jean had followed her families to various business events in the past; she is well-versed with those events.
"Jean, your resume is excellent. We are also aware of your prominent family background." The HR personnel tone was warm and friendly as he looked at her with a well-pleased face, "However we are not exactly the top company in the field…"
Jean was shrewd and understood his hidden message, "I know the salary may be slightly lower than market average, however that is not my main concern. I will always attempt to deliver my best regardless of the situation."
The HR found her faultless and was ready to make an offer.
