Chapter 204 The Bottom Line
Noah was her bottom line.

If anyone had made things difficult for him while she was unconscious, she would never forgive them.
Noah hesitated as well. He wasn’t sure whether he should tell her.
“Iris asked me something before she left,” Vivian said. “She wanted to know if sister and brother–in–law gave you a hard time.”
The moment she said that, Noah understood everything.

Without another word, he handed her the detailed account he had prepared long ago–a record of everything that had happened while she was unconscious.
After leaving the hospital, Iris checked the time. It was still early, so she headed back to Venus.
“President Zero? You’re back?”
As soon as Yonki spotted her walking toward her office, he stopped her.
“Perfect timing. We’ve got an interview coming up. Want to sit in?”
Iris hadn’t expected work to find her the moment she returned. “An interview? Why would I be there? And you’re going too?”
Wasn’t that HR’s job? Since when did interviews require both the president and vice president?
Yonki chuckled. “There isn’t much going on lately. Come sit in and observe.”
Iris initially had no intention of going, but Yonki kept insisting. The more he insisted, the more unusual it seemed.
Eventually, she agreed.
Inside the conference room, an administrative assistant placed a bottle of water in front of the candidate.

“Thank you.”
The HR manager was equally confused.
It was only an interview. Why were both President Zero and Vice President Saunders attending?
She glanced down at the applicant’s résumé again.
Well…
The candidate was certainly impressive.
Maybe that explained it.
The three of them pushed open the conference room door together.

The HR manager’s heartbeat had only just settled when she caught sight of the interviewee.
It immediately shot through the roof again.
She nearly fainted.
The woman’s face…
It was terrifying.
Burn scars stretched across the corner of her eye and her forehead. She wore a black mask, but even then, the scars clearly continued underneath it.
It was hard to imagine what her face looked like beneath the mask.
The HR manager was inwardly shocked, but her professionalism held. Aside from a brief widening of her eyes, her expression remained steady.
Meanwhile, Yonki completely froze. The moment he saw the candidate, he looked as though he might burst into tears. His mouth opened several times, but no words
came out.
Compared to the other two, Iris remained perfectly calm.
She simply nodded to the candidate.

She had already expected this outcome.
Nothing about it surprised her.
“Hello, everyone. I’m here for the interview. My name is Riley Carter.”

Even with the mask covering most of her face, the slight curve of her eyes revealed a smile.
Judging by her eyes alone, it wasn’t difficult to imagine how beautiful she must once have been.
The HR manager had only joined the company after the acquisition and had no idea about the history involved. She sat down and proceeded with a standard interview.
She had assumed Vice President Saunders and President Zero would ask a few questions.
Instead, both remained silent observers.
As the interview continued, Riley answered every question with ease.
The HR manager grew increasingly impressed.
“Based on your qualifications, you’re more than capable of handling the position you’ve applied for. But I do have one question.”
She looked at Riley curiously.
“With your experience and expertise, you could easily apply for a managerial position in almost any department. Why are you applying for such an entry–level role?”
Riley smiled. “Because there was a period when I shut myself off from the world due to my mental state. I didn’t want to return to this industry.”
“Fortunately, someone helped me find my way back. I’d like to start from the ground up and get familiar with the pace of the work again.”
Over the years, she had continued following developments in the cosmetics industry, but being away from a corporate environment for so long meant she’d need time to adjust.

As she mentioned the person who had helped her recover, she glanced at Iris.
The HR manager finished her questions and looked toward Iris and Yonki.
Neither had any objections.
The decision was unanimous.
“You can step outside for a moment,” Iris told the HR manager. “I’d like a few words with Ms. Carter.”
Once the HR manager left, only the three of them remained.
