From Trash to Treasure: The Sinclair Family's Beloved Genius
Chapter 422: How Could Our President Shaw Be Interested in Someone Like You?
Chloe thought for a moment more. "If it’s inconvenient for anyone to come today, tell them they can come by ten o’clock tomorrow."
Chloe didn’t want to make things difficult and was trying to be considerate of the applicants.
Hearing Chloe’s words, Aaron Archer breathed a sigh of relief.
He had been worried that because Chloe was young, she wouldn’t handle things well. It seemed he had been overthinking it.
"Okay, I’ll go inform them now."
Chloe nodded. "I’ll go wait in the lounge. Call me when they arrive."
Aaron Archer glanced at the man standing behind Chloe.
The man’s aura was too powerful. From the moment he had walked in, Aaron hadn’t dared to look him in the eye.
So he quickly agreed, "Okay."
Chloe sat in Jasper Shaw’s break room for a little while, and Ian Winters delivered a number of items.
Chloe took them all.
Jasper Shaw sat in his chair, looking over documents, occasionally lifting his eyes to glance at Chloe.
Suddenly, the phone on his desk rang.
He frowned. He didn’t want to answer it.
But as soon as the call was silenced, another one came in seamlessly right after.
Even Chloe noticed something was wrong.
She glanced at Jasper Shaw, her eyes filled with confusion. "Why aren’t you answering your phone?"
Jasper Shaw hesitated for a moment, said, "Excuse me," and took his phone outside.
A moment later, Jasper Shaw returned, a hint of irritation in his eyes. "Chloe, I have a meeting to attend."
Chloe froze.
She stared at Jasper Shaw. Seeing his grave expression, she grew worried and couldn’t help but ask, "Did something happen at the company?"
Jasper Shaw: "No."
Chloe: "..."
She didn’t believe him.
’If nothing was wrong with the company, why would Jasper Shaw look like that?’
Jasper Shaw thought for a moment and immediately understood. He said, "The representatives from Meridia arrived early. I have to go meet them now, so I can’t take you home today. I’ll have someone take you back later."
Chloe studied Jasper Shaw for a long moment. When it didn’t seem like he was lying, she finally nodded.
"Don’t worry about me. I have to go back to work after the interviews anyway. You be careful."
"Okay."
Not long after Jasper Shaw left, Aaron Archer sent her the files for the interviewees again.
Chloe couldn’t open them on her phone, so she walked over to Jasper Shaw’s computer, sat down, and logged into her own account.
Just then, a knock came from the door.
Chloe: "Come in."
The door clicked open, and in walked a woman in her twenties who looked like a recent graduate.
The woman wore a white professional suit and had wavy, blondish hair. She looked sharp and capable.
"Who are you?!"
The moment she entered, the woman saw Chloe sitting at the computer, and her internal alarm bells went off.
Chloe was stunned by the shout and hadn’t yet processed it.
The woman immediately continued, "How did you sneak in here? Which workstation are you from? Why haven’t I seen you before?"
Chloe: "???"
’Normally, the only people who can enter the president’s office are his secretaries or department heads.’
’But the woman in front of her was too young; she clearly wasn’t a department head.’
’Besides, this person looked completely unfamiliar.’
"Excuse me, I’m Jasper Shaw’s... fiancée. And you are?"
The woman froze, clearly in disbelief. "That’s impossible. There’s no way our President Shaw is in a relationship."
After speaking, she looked Chloe up and down.
A plain tracksuit, a pair of flats, and not a trace of makeup on her face.
’Besides being pretty, there was nothing impressive about her at all.’
"Heh, as if our President Shaw would ever be interested in someone like you."
