Chapter 7 An Unexpected Reunion
Ann tried to avoid his gaze and ignored her nervous and uneasy feelings. She forced herself to answer interviewers' questions calmly.
Ann was coming for the post of a perfumer, a non-popular one, so during the interview, other interviewers only asked some routine questions. The key questions were asked by the director of the perfume research and development department.
The Group didn't plan to recruit many perfumers, so the interviewers asked some quite tough questions. Fortunately, Ann was familiar with all the perfume things, so she did quite well.
The director seemed to be very satisfied with her unique ideas and was just about to say that Ann could go now and wait for the news.
"Miss Ann, do you have a boyfriend?"
The low and cold voice. Ann found it somewhat familiar.
Before she could remember where she had heard this voice before, she subconsciously answered the question.
"Yes."
"With a prospect of marriage?"
Ann was confused by the questions, but she had to answer them honestly.
"Yes."
Phillip's eyes, like obsidian, became even darker. He was still staring at her.
He never thought that they would meet again on this occasion. And he didn't expect that she totally forgot about him.
Recalling the intimate interactions between her and Karl he saw in the CCTV, Phillip pursed his lips. The atmosphere in the interview room plunged into a stifling and freezing coldness. After that, Phillip stood up and left the room, sullen. The others in the room were all confused and shocked.
The interviewers looked at each other, having no idea about what was going on.
Raising their heads, they saw Ann, who was as confused as them, and one of them said,
"Miss Ann, interview's over. You can go now."
In the room next door, Karl had already learned about the Group, and he was a capable man, so he was not nervous at all during the interview.
He also shared some insights, at which the interviewers showed satisfaction and appreciation.
Seeing the smiles on their faces, Karl was a little complacent.
Just as the interview was about to end, the door was opened. Phillip walked in with a cold expression. He ignored the shock and confusion in the others' eyes, and sat down at an empty seat. His eyes were deep and dark as if they could block the sunlight. He glanced at Karl and picked up his résumé.
"You graduated from Main Houston University? Not bad. Tell me more about yourself."
The interviewers who had planned to let Karl go were all puzzled.
Seeing that the CEO was quite interested in his résumé, they had to keep asking him questions.
While Karl, who was a little complacent just now, was also shocked by what was going on now. Phillip was commanding and asked him tricky questions. It overwhelmed Karl.
The interviewers didn't dare to say anything but to observe Phillip's expression.
They wondered if Karl had offended Phillip before.
Karl's forehead was covered in sweat, and he completely panicked.
Finally, everyone there saw Phillip frowned and said in a low and cold voice.
"You can go now!"
Karl's face turned pale. He wanted to say something, but seeing Phillip's dark eyes, Karl felt a chill running down his spine. He just left stiffly.
...
When he came out, Ann and Daisy, who were waiting for him outside, felt that obviously, something went wrong.
"Everything okay?"
Karl lowered his head and saw Ann's worried expression. He held her hands and smiled bitterly,
"Yes, it's okay. It's just they asked some tricky questions."
Ann was stunned for a while and then comforted him.
"Don't worry. You will get the job."
Karl rubbed her head, not willing to admit failure in front of her. He smiled and nodded.
Daisy, on the other hand, looked at that interview room and raised her eyebrows.
She had just seen Phillip enter that room with a sullen expression.
