My mind went blank for a moment.
I quickly forced myself to calm down, trying my best to keep a neutral expression on my face.
During the interview, most of the questions came from the two senior interviewers sitting at the head of the table.
It was strange, but even while organizing my responses, my mind couldn’t stop wondering what the person sitting in the corner was doing.
He hadn’t said a word the entire time and just sat quietly in the back.
When the interview was over and the interviewers shook my hand, Ben stood up and left through the back door without a word.
I found an extra 300 thousand dollars in my bank account.
Even if Ben had blown up the little apartment I rented that day, this compensation would have been more than enough.
When Ben’s brother, Perry Greene, came over to thank me, he was polite and thoughtful–perfectly composed, making it impossible to find fault with him.
I’d suspected his family had money, but I never guessed Perry owned Greene Incorporated.
The company I had interviewed with last time was actually one of Greene Incorporated’s subsidiaries.
A CEO at that level? I’d probably only seen them on TV before.
Now, here he was, in person, speaking with nothing but gratitude and respect.
The results of my interview had gone smoothly, and the next day, I was informed I had the job. No further interviews with HR required.
The company was even bigger than the last one I worked for. When I first arrived, after lunch, I found myself completely lost trying to find my way back.
I managed to get into an elevator, but just as the door opened, I came face–to–face with someone, and we barely made eye contact.
I had never seen Ben in a suit before.
When I used to buy him clothes, it was always casual stuff like hoodies, the athletic kind.
Seeing him like this now, all dressed up, threw me off for a second.
The man had sharp, deep features, and his jawline was so strong it almost felt like he was always on the edge of being intimidating.
It seemed like he wanted people to keep their distance.
I stepped back a few paces, but his gaze stayed fixed on me
Just as I was about to look up and speak, his cold, indifferent voice cut through the air.
“Are you coming to my office with me?”
