Ronald brought Noelle inside. "Mr. Parker, this is Ms. Shaw. She's here for the interview!"
Ronald introduced Noelle, gesturing toward her.
Noelle met Brian's gaze and gave a slight nod. "Hello, Mr. Parker. I'm Noelle."
Noelle's demeanor was very composed and confident, showing no signs of nervousness.
Brian's gaze lingered on Noelle only briefly before turning to Ronald.
Ronald immediately understood. "I have matters to attend upstairs. I'll leave the interview to you, Mr. Parker."
After Ronald left, Brian took a proper look at Noelle, and then motioned for her to sit.
Brian pulled out her resume from the drawer. This resume had been given to him by Ronald just the previous night, mentioning it was for someone he recommended.
Known for his impartiality, Brian would not grant favors lightly.
Though Brian had not known Ronald for long, he had a good sense of Ronald's character. Being Charles' right-hand man indicated Ronald's competence and integrity.
Initially, Brian was not particularly interested in meeting Noelle, but Ronald's insistence that he would regret not seeing her piqued his curiosity.
Brian reviewed Noelle's resume. It was not particularly impressive, and her work experience was rather unremarkable. However, the fact that she had managed a significant project caught his interest, suggesting she had some capability.
While Brian assessed Noelle, she maintained her composure, showing neither arrogance nor timidity.
This impressed Brian. "Ms. Noelle Shaw?"
