Three <b>days </bter, <b>as </b>promised<b>, </b>Veronica arrived at Heberly for her <b>interview</b>. A receptionist at the front desk led her to the lounge.
At that moment, Kate, who had juste from headquarters for a training exchange<b>, </b><b>caught </b><b>a </b>fleeting glimpse <b>of </b>someone passing by. She recognized the person instantly. It was <b>Veronica</b>!
Thinking about all the online buzz with Veronica and Heath over the past two days<b>, </b>Kate could not help curling her lips into a sneer.
She thought it was pathetic. So what if Veronica had married into a wealthy family? She was trying to y in a league way out of her ss.
Kate had beenughing at Veronica for a while now, but she hadn’t expected Heberly to step in and save this failure.
She wondered if Veronica had perhapstched onto some executive at Heberly. After all, she believed that the woman had no real skills, but <b>she </b>certainly had an endless array of seductive
tricks up her sleeve.
Jealousy quickly reced the smile in Kate’s eyes. It only took a little digging to confirm her suspicions–Veronica was here for an interview.
It seemed that Veronica really hadnded someone big!
Kate excused herself and stepped aside to make a call.
This was Veronica’s first time interviewing at this level, so she was a little nervous.
Heberly had assigned a professional makeup artist to help her get ready.
“It’s such a shame that you’re not a model, Ms. Dolton,” the makeup artist said as he gently
traced her brows.
Veronica’s features embodied a ssic beauty<b>. </b>Her skin was smooth and luminous, her nos delicately shaped, and her almond–shaped eyes drew people in with just a nce.
The makeup artist rarely came across eyes this stunning in the industry. He barely had to think, and a light touch was all it took to bring out a striking, camera–ready look.
Veronica offered a shy smile in response to hispliment.
Heberly had alreadypleted the mock–up based on her designs. She happened to be wearing a sample piece of her design that day—a white, vintage–style dress with elegant cuts incorporating traditional floral patterns.
The moment she stepped out, she drew everyone’s attention. Her beauty was effortless an

<b>natural</b>.
<b>The </b>makeup artist clicked his tongue in admiration.
Soon<b>, </b>a staff member came to escort her to the interview room. Even the staff’s expression faltered for a beat when they saw her.
She was indeed breathtaking.
Their attitude became noticeably more attentive,
“Ms. Dolton, you’ll be speaking to our host today Ms. Coco Geller. She might have a sharp tongue, but she sees right through people. She likes to joke around too, so don’t let it make you nervous.”
“Thank you,” Veronica said, her smile faint.
She walked into the interview room to find the cameras already set up.
“Ms. Geller should be here shortly. Please make yourselffortable in the meantime.”
“Alright.”
Two chairs sat facing each other in the room. Veronica took a seat in one of them.
About half an hourter, the door opened, and a woman dressed in a crisp white pantsuit entered. Her ck hair was pinned up, and her lipstick was a deep, bold shade of red. Her features were sharply defined with a cool, unapproachable air.
Veronica took the initiative and greeted her. “Nice to meet you.”
The woman gave a curt nod in return.
She walked in and dragged the chair opposite Veronica a bit farther back. Then she took a seat, a digital tablet in hand, tapping away without saying a word. There was no indication that the interview would begin anytime soon.
Veronica waited patiently for a while longer. When she was certain that the woman was still busy, she quietly began reviewing the interview questions in her mind. She couldn’t quite remember a few of the prompts. So, she pulled out her phone, hoping to refresh her memory.
