Chapter 43: Meeting Jess Lane Again
William Scott smiled and said, “Yes, I came to deliver pie to her. Naturally, I have to be in her office.”
“You’re her boyfriend?” Chen Lan stared into William Scott’s eyes.
“I told you that last time.” William Scott shrugged.
Chen Lan immediately shook her head and said firmly, “That’s impossible. If you’re her boyfriend, how can her secretary not know you?”
“So you saw through me. Hehe, Lydia, I have something to attend to. I’ll get going.”
With a wave of his hand, William Scott hailed a taxi and left.
“Hmph, you still want to lie to me. Do you think you’re her boyfriend just because you went to the CEO’s office? There are many men who went to the CEO’s office today. I saw through you, right?”
Chen Lan muttered under her breath, feeling a little smug. However, she had a faint feeling that something was wrong, but she couldn’t tell what was wrong.
The first thing William Scott did when he arrived at the company the next day was to answer Xenia Lewis’s questions.
Xenia Lewis nudged William Scott’s shoulder with her own and asked with a suggestive expression, “Hey, did you go on a date with Yvette Quinn yesterday? Did you make any progress?”
William Scott said, “Aren’t we doing quite well now? I even sent her pie yesterday.”
“And then?”
“And then she was so busy at work, so I went home.’
“Are you okay? You’re dating! You’re not her brother, nor her father. How can you leave after delivering food?”
“Why are you like my mother…” William Scott touched his forehead speechlessly and said,” Yesterday, my mother educated me about it for more than two hours. ”
“Pfft…” Instead, Xenia Lewis smiled proudly and said,” This is what they mean when they say great minds think alike. I realized that Auntie and I hit it off especially well. Now, it turns out that there’s a reason why we hit it off. Our values are basically aligned. ”
William Scott glared at her and said, “Don’t look at me like my mother. Otherwise, I’ll slip away and not start a company with you.”
Xenia Lewis reached out and grabbed William Scott’s arm. She shook it gently and said, “Alright, alright, I won’t say it… You’re my God of Fortune. If you slip away, Millennium Productions will take all the money away. My dear cousin-in-law William, I won’t say it anymore.”
The two of them had been working together in the company every day for the past few days, and their relationship was really good. Sometimes, Xenia Lewis would also have a little intimate physical contact with William Scott from time to time.
However, this kind of physical contact was at most like hooking arms. For someone like William Scott who often carried out missions overseas, he did not think that there was anything wrong with this.
The two of them joked for a while, then threw themselves back into the tense work. There was an interview today. Even though William Scott had experienced a lot over the years and had been the head interviewer before, those who came to him wanted to enter Beast Howl or his mercenary organization. All of them were extremely capable people. There were basically no women. Even if there were women, they were extremely powerful and not to be trifled with.
The people the company wanted to interview were all beautiful women, and they were the kind of beautiful women with talent. William Scott was also quite curious. He had to be the main interviewer this time.
It was still early. William Scott changed into the work clothes he had been wearing for the past two days and tidied up the messy things.
The interview started at 9:30 a.m. Before 9 a.m., the interviewees had already started coming over. All of them were really beautiful. However, these beauties seemed to have a lot of powder on their faces and heavy makeup. Their natural beauty could not be compared to Xenia Lewis’s.
However, these were all people that the company might use in the future. If they filmed a video, they would be able to get all kinds of good looks through editing. Even a girl who looked a 3/10 could be a 10/10 and attract a wave of fans.
Therefore, William Scott did not mind if they were really beautiful or if they had come with makeup.
Clang! Clang! Clang! With the sound of high heels, another beauty walked out of the elevator on the 26th floor. It was actually Jess Lane, the one who had gone on a blind date with William Scott at home two days ago.
Jess Lane was wearing a tight red one-piece dress with a wide neckline. Her skirt was very short, as if she wanted to expose everything she could.
After adjusting her dress, Jess Lane raised her chin confidently. She already knew that this company was not a big company. Furthermore, she had been around for two years and had a fan base. She believed that with her qualifications, she would definitely be accepted by this company.
In the past, she had always thought of ways to attract fans herself. This was not as good as having a company to package and manage her. When she realized this, she especially wanted to find a company to package her. Now that there was finally an opportunity, she did not want to miss it.
“You guys be careful.” The other elevator door opened, and several people were carrying things out. They almost bumped into her, which annoyed her.
William Scott had just gone downstairs to pick up a batch of goods. Those who were not from the building were not allowed to enter at the lobby.
“Eh, it’s you?” William Scott stopped in his tracks. He didn’t expect to see Jess Lane here.
“Oh, it’s you…” Jess Lane sized up William Scott and finally recognized him. She pursed her lips and said, “I thought that Auntie Janna’s son would have a decent job. I didn’t expect you to… Hehe, you’re working as a mover. Fortunately, I didn’t agree to be with you. Otherwise, I would have lost my face.”
William Scott looked down at his clothes and couldn’t help but laugh. There didn’t seem to be anything wrong with saying that he was a mover. Previously, there was Nadia Sawyer, who thought so. Today, there was Jess Lane. He said, “What are you doing here?”
“Of course I’m here to… work. Do you know what this place is? It’s a film company. If anyone can enter such a company to do some work, they can brag about it for the rest of their lives.”
William Scott had a bad impression of Jess Lane. Now that she was putting on an act in front of him, he couldn’t help but expose her lie with a wicked smile. “I’ve been here for two days. Why didn’t I see you working here?”
Jess Lane’s expression didn’t change at all. She snorted and said, “What do you know? I went out for an event two days ago and only returned to the company today. Move aside. I’m going in to work. You better be careful. Don’t break anything in our company, or you’ll be in trouble.”
William Scott was simply impressed by Jess Lane’s shamelessness. He continued to expose her and said, “Your company? I saw many people like you coming here to apply for a job. Are you here to apply?”
