After the twenty-minute interpretation ended, the invigilators quickly graded the interviewees. Jenny walked out of the conference room with Genevieve and praised her, “Genevieve, your interpretation is great! The combined scores will be out tomorrow. Even if you failed the other tests, it’s fine.
With just your grades for this test alone, I can get you into Central Group.” Although she was not the invigilator for Genevieve’s written test, she heard during lunch from the other interviewees that Genevieve handed in her test paper very quickly, as it seemed she did not know how to do it.
However, even if Genevieve’s combined scores are not high enough, I will still get her into the translation department through my connections. After all, Genevieve is Steven’s future sister-in-law. Genevieve could not tell Jenny’s internal musings. Instead, she thought Jenny, misguided by the rumors, believed she did not do well for the written exam and was comforting her. Remembering her bet with Queenie, she did not say anything, but only smiled and replied, “Thanks, Ms. Griffin.”
Just then, Queenie coincidentally walked out from the conference room opposite them. After recognizing Jenny, Queenie immediately went forth and greeted, “Ms. Griffin, I’m Queenie Lane. My uncle is Harold Lane from the purchasing department. If I enter the translation department in the future, please look after me.”
“We’ll see when you enter the translation department. I’ll be leaving first.” Compared to Queenie’s enthusiastic greeting, Jenny’s reply was much colder. Queenie had just stretched out her hand to shake hands with Jenny, but the latter walked away. Feeling awkward, she could only withdraw her hand in embarrassment.
Then, she grabbed Genevieve, who was about to walk away, and asked suspiciously, “Genevieve, you know Ms. Griffin?” I saw Ms. Griffin smiling while talking to Genevieve just now, yet Ms. Griffin treats me so icily. This shouldn’t be. The Rachford family has already fallen. Genevieve’s reputation is ruined, and she doesn’t even have friends to help her. How can she know Ms. Griffin? “Why do I need to inform you whether I know her or not?”
Genevieve retorted. Glancing down, she ordered, “Get your hands off me.” Infuriated that Genevieve humiliated her, Queenie wanted to scold back, but upon meeting Genevieve’s emotionless eyes, she unconsciously fell silent and even let go of her hand reflexively. Genevieve’s imposing aura made her shiver for some reason. After seeing Genevieve walk away, Queenie sighed in relief discreetly, but before she could relax fully, Genevieve suddenly turned back after taking two steps.
“Did Erica contact you recently?” “No,” Queenie responded almost immediately. Ever since Erica and Harrison’s scandal was made known to the world, she immediately severed all relations with Erica, afraid that Cooper would take revenge on her family’s company due to her being too close with Erica. Upon hearing her words, Genevieve guessed that Erica must have lots of dirt on Cooper. If not, he would not hide her away so well. “If she contacts you, do tell me.
I’ll give you your fair share of rewards.” Genevieve patted Queenie’s shoulder and walked away for real this time. Only when Genevieve entered the lift did Queenie feel the sense of oppression that was surrounding her gradually fade away. Queenie came back to her senses after a while and shouted while gritting her teeth, “Genevieve is only a rich girl who has fallen from grace. Why should I be afraid of her? Why should I answer her every question?”
This is so infuriating! Then, Queenie saw a woman walk out from Genevieve’s testing site. Immediately, she walked over and asked, “Who invigilated you just now?”
“I only recognize Ms. Griffin from the translation department, but not the other two.” When Queenie found out Jenny was Genevieve’s invigilator, Queenie quickly realized that Genevieve must have achieved good scores in interpretation for Jenny to treat her so politely. Immediately, she felt uneasy. According to her original plan, her uncle, Harold, should have invigilated Genevieve and would give her a low score after the exam.
However, during her lunch break time, Harold sent her a message saying he needed to go out to work. Thus, his colleagues from other departments went to invigilate in his stead. Even Ms. Griffin was satisfied by Genevieve’s interpretation, so the other invigilators definitely gave her high scores too.
What if she gets first place with her combined scores? “Do you know Genevieve?” the woman asked, thinking that Queenie knew Genevieve since the former was asking about Genevieve. “Did she come just as a formality?” “What do you mean?” Queenie asked back hurriedly.
“Ms. Griffin treats Genevieve very well.” With a resentful look on her face, the woman continued, “I saw Ms. Griffin help Genevieve with the devices, and the interpretation should be into Ustranasion, but Genevieve’s was changed into Granatanolan.” “What?” Queenie shouted in shock.
No wonder Genevieve handed in her written test papers so fast, dared to bet with me, and had a confident smile on her face all the time. She’s getting in here through connections!
