Chapter 30 You Didn’t Make the Cut
“Good afternoon, sir.”
Felicia bowed politely to the interviewers.
“Good afternoon, please take a seat.”
A deep male voice answered.
Felicia straightened and sat down.

She saw four interviewers sitting across from her–people she’d only ever seen on TV or in the papers.
They were all big shots in the medical field.
But there was still one empty seat in the middle.
Felicia couldn’t help wondering who could possibly deserve to sit there among such bigshots.
“One more interviewer hasn’t arrived yet. Please wait a moment,” one of them said coolly.
Felicia nodded, her curiosity growing stronger.
“She’s here!”
A male interviewer checked his phone, eyes lighting up, and stood up.
The other three stood up as well.
Startled, Felicia scrambled to her feet, too.
She turned to look where all the interviewers were staring.
The conference room door swung open, and Noelle strolled in.
She held her phone in one hand, looking relaxed.
Felicia blurted out, “Noelle?”
How could it be her?
“What are you doing here? This isn’t where you belong! Get out!” she shouted angrily.
Noelle ignored her, walking right in as the door shut behind her. She nodded at the four

interviewers, holding up her phone. “Sorry, I am late. Had to take a call.”
“No worries, Boss, come in!”

The three interviewers‘ faces chilled at Felicia’s attitude, thinking, Who does this woman think she is, speaking to our boss like that?
But at Noelle’s words, all four interviewers broke into huge smiles.
Boss is finally here!
Noelle took the seat at the very center.
The four interviewers immediately handed her a cup of fruit tea.
“Boss! Have some fruit tea!”
Boss always loves a sweet drink!
Hehe!
Felicia felt her blood run cold.
She stared at Noelle and the four interviewers in disbelief.
Why are the interviewers treating Noelle like this?
Was that seat reserved for Noelle?
How could that be possible?
“Boss? Does it taste good?” The four interviewers looked at Noelle with eager, sparkling eyes.
Noelle took a sip through her straw and nodded. “Yeah.”
The interviewers grinned like kids.
Now that their boss was happy, it was time to get down to business.
Their faces all turned serious as they glared at Felicia.
They hadn’t forgotten the way she’d spoken to Noelle just now.
“Boss, do you know this woman?” one interviewer asked.
Noelle glanced at Felicia and nodded, “Yeah, I know her.”

She paused and added, “We don’t get along. She drew my blood once and cussed me out
Instantly, the interviewers‘ eyes flashed with hostility.
“Boss?”
Felicia felt her brain short–circuit.
She was totally shaken.
Did the interviewers just call Noelle ‘Boss‘?
At Alliance 749, only the president is called ‘Boss!
So, Noelle is the president of Alliance 749?
How could that be?
“That’s right, she is the president of Alliance 749; that’s why she’s our boss,” one interviewer said loudly, eyes full of admiration for Noelle.
Without Noelle, there would be no Alliance 749.
Noelle was practically a legend there.
The identity of their president was supposed to be a secret, but today, the interviewers had no worries about revealing it. They were sure that no candidate would ever dare leak it.
“So, should we start the interview now?” an interviewer asked Noelle.
“Everyone’s here. Let’s start.” Noelle tapped her finger on the table.
One of the interviewers motioned for Felicia to begin. “Go ahead with your introduction.”
Felicia took a deep breath and started, “Hello, interviewers. I’m Felicia Hernandez, a med student at Riverdale University…
Felicia quickly got herself together and spoke clearly about her qualifications, earning nods of approval from the interviewers.
For an undergrad, her achievements were already impressive.
Felicia watched their reactions closely, and when she saw approval in their eyes, she finally relaxed a little.
It seemed like the interviewers were satisfied with her.

She and Noelle had some bad blood, but surely Noelle wouldn’t be petty enough to hold a grudge over something so small, right?
“I’m sorry, you didn’t make the cut. Next.”
After a quick exchange, the interwanded her file to Noelle. Noelle just glanced at it, marked a big X, and an
