Chapter 16 Tell Him to Get Out Lucas remembered that HR was holding an interview . He assumed that this was the resume of someone who had failed to pass . Just as he was about to toss the resume in the bin , he was suddenly stopped in his tracks . " Hold on . " Upon hearing the familiar name on the resume , Joseph furrowed his brows and reached out to take it from Lucas . At the top floor of the building , the HR manager nervously handed over a stack of interviewee information forms to the CEO's assistant . Lucas took them and pushed open the door to the office . The HR manager strained to get a look but did not manage to see anything and left disappointed . " Find out more about this person named Chloe Johnson , " Joseph ordered emotionlessly . " Right away , sir , " Lucas replied , and within ten minutes , he had found Chloe's information . " Mr. Joseph , here's her information . She was rejected in the first round . " " Given her qualifications, that shouldn't have happened , " Joseph said as he laid the previously crumpled resume flat on his desk . " She has level C2 proficiency in Estrenian . It's impossible for her to fail the written test ! " Lucas exclaimed . Those who passed the C2 examination were generally over thirty years old , but Chloe looked no more than twenty - four . This young talent was exactly what Fairlight needed right now . Joseph tapped his fingers rhythmically on the desk , sinking deep into his thoughts . He found himself pondering if such a coincidence could actually occur in this world . There were individuals who might never cross paths their entire lives . Yet , in just four short days , he had met Chloe , married her , and now she was attending a job interview at his company . ' Does she really not have any ulterior motives ? ' Lucas had been observing Joseph closely , but could not quite figure out his boss's thoughts . He carefully suggested , " Mr. Johnson , should we investigate this further ? " " Yes , " Joseph interlaced his fingers and placed them on his chest , pausing for a moment before saying , " Also find out why she didn't pass the written test . " At four in the afternoon , Lucas had completed both tasks . " There's nothing wrong with Ms. Chloe's background . She's the daughter of a small company owner in Aesper . However , her deceased mother's background is a bit strange . I can't find anything about her prior to her marriage . " Lucas hesitated before continuing , " As for why she didn't pass the written test today , it's a bit complicated … " Joseph looked up and said , " Go on . " Lucas recounted the conflict that had occurred between Chloe and William earlier in the afternoon , as well as the fact that Melody was William's niece . T " Taking advantage of his power , William brought in five of his relatives into headquarters and arranged for them relatively easy positions . This time , there was only one vacancy for the Estrenian translator position . After disqualifying Ms. Chloe , Wiliam informed the remaining qualified candidates in the same way that they didn't pass the interview . In the end , only Melody made it through , and HR has already confirmed that she'll be starting work at Fairlight starting tomorrow . " Lucas explained the situation while observing Joseph's reaction . Fairlight's headquarters had been overseas for the past few years , with only one branch located in Aesper . After Joseph took over the Aesper branch , he focused on projects within the country . Last month , the branch merged with headquarters . William was one of the old employees of the Aesper branch . " Tell him to pack his things and get out , " Joseph ordered coldly as he stood up . " What about his relatives? " Lucas asked . " Fire them all as well . " Joseph walked to the floor - to - ceiling window that overlooked the bustling traffic below , his eyes radiating a dark light . " Notify HR that all interviewees who did not pass today will be given another chance . " Lucas complied but he could not help but wonder . Joseph had always been impartial but had now broken the rules for this woman named Chloe . What was their relationship ?
