Billionaire's Match (by Tangy Candy) novel Chapter 358

Chapter 358

Winnie had studied this field in college. She had effectively inherited her mother’s profession-her mother had been a highly capable pharmaceutical researcher, overseeing countless drug developments and, even on her deathbed, conquering a patented technique that earned worldwide recognition.

But Winnie lacked her mother’s talent. No matter how hard she worked in school, she never excelled.

After graduation, she applied to countless companies in the field, but her abilities weren’t exceptional, and her status as an Olson family heiress often worked against her-most employers refused to hire her.

Winnie knew the Olsons were deliberately blocking her behind the scenes. They didn’t want her to escape their control; they cut off her paths to success, afraid she might achieve something like her mother.

Still, Winnie knew they worried unnecessarily.

After the incident at the store with Michael and Lindsay, although she hadn’t been formally reprimanded, her career evaluations at the Olson family were essentially zero. At this rate, she would never pass their oversight assessments, and breaking free of their control was impossible.

The invitation from Morrison Group was a perfect solution.

If she worked there, the Olson family couldn’t interfere. Only then would she stand a chance to pass the evaluations.

What Winnie didn’t expect was Khloe’s sudden help.

Before Khloe called Winnie, she had already contacted the Olson family. The Olsons were practical-they couldn’t afford to offend Morrison Group. Even though Khloe was technically an illegitimate daughter, they still gave her face.

Given Winnie’s pampered and spoiled personality, she wouldn’t last long at Morrison Group anyway.

If Khloe wanted to help, it could even create trouble for herself—Michael’s example was clear. The family chose to watch quietly.

Even with all the justification Khloe offered, Winnie still felt unworthy of such help.

Khloe, however, did not mince words. She set clear conditions: Morrison Group didn’t support idlers. If Winnie failed her three-month probation, she would be asked to leave. If she succeeded, as repayment to the company for nurturing her, Khloe wanted authorization for her mother’s patent.

Only then did Winnie feel some reassurance.

The patent authorization hadn’t yet been obtained from the Olson family, and she wasn’t even certain she could secure it in the future.

Yet, Khloe’s calm, matter-of-fact attitude toward her insecurity struck Winnie profoundly.

“Just try. You won’t even try?” Khloe sald simply.

Those few words sparked the last flicker of Winnie’s pride and fighting spirit.

Given the chance, she naturally wanted to try-so long as Khloe remained indifferent and held no expectations

for her. She couldn’t bear the weight of anyone else’s hopes.

While Winnie sat in the lobby waiting to be received, Ethan had just arrived at Morrison Group. His eyes immediately landed on her familiar face.

He had just returned to work today and never expected to see something so unusual.

Why was Winnie here? She was dressed so formally, clearly coming to start a job.

“Winnie?”

Ethan greeted lightly, and before Winnie could respond, he had already seated himself beside her.

The man’s cologne was strong; Winnie instinctively shifted away, keeping her distance.

“Ethan, don’t sit so close.”
