Chapter 6 The CEO Would Be Here Too
Carrying the suitcases, Karl was telling the taxi driver where they were now.
Hanging up the phone, Karl put his arm around her shoulder, "Let's go. The taxi is over there. We can
go to my place today. Mom won't stop talking about Nikki. She can take care of her. And tomorrow we
can go to the Moore Group for the interview."
Ann lowered her head to look at Nikki in her arms, and then looked up at Karl.
"Karl, is this really okay?"
When she asked Karl to help her take Nikki abroad to Country F, she told him everything.
He didn't look down on her and just felt sorry for her.
During the five years in Country F, Karl had taken good care of her and Nikki.
Karl then told her that he loved her, and he didn't care about her past. He said he was willing to accept
Nikki and would treat her as his own daughter.
He knew Ann was afraid that someone would take Nikki away, so he offered to tell everyone that he
was Nikki's biological father.
And he even lied to his mother, Betty Jobson.
Nikki's age had been changed from five to three. But fortunately, she was in poor health conditions and
looked smaller than she was supposed to, so it was not that suspicious.
Karl smiled as he looked at Ann.
"Ann, I told you I don't mind your past. It's not your fault. I love you. Nothing can change it."
...
The Moore Group Headquarter.
The headquarter was in a towering ring-shaped building. In the middle was a large courtyard with a
360-degree curved glass wall. It was magnificent.
Karl had learned about the Moore family online before. It was the top wealthy and famous family in
River City. Those who worked in the Group were all the top of the heap.
Seeing Ann was a little bit nervous, Karl patted her on the shoulder.
"Don't worry. If we are hired, that's good. If not, we can still go for other companies."
She nodded, "I know."
Actually, she didn't want to come here at first. After all, the Group had set the bar very high. And when
it came to hiring a perfumer, working experience talked.
She was just fresh from a university, and barely had any experience.
Her best friend, Daisy Lainey, worked here. She encouraged her to give it a shot.
Just as she was thinking, she received a message from Daisy.
Daisy: Inside info: The CEO will be here for the interview too. Good luck!
Daisy also sent her a website link of the company.
It was the introduction to the CEO, Phillip Moore.Content is property © NôvelDrama.Org.
Ann saw a handsome but stern face. His deep eyes seemed bottomless. Although it was just a photo,
Ann still felt that he was cold and severe.
Apart from his great achievements, the introduction also included some gossips.
For example, it was said that Phillip was a cunning, ruthless, and cruel man. Although he was a
bastard, he had driven Simon out, the original successor of the Group. In just a few years, he had
climbed up to the position of the Group's CEO.
Some people even said that Phillip also had something to do with Hilda's disappearance and death.
Hilda was Simon's biological mother.
It was hard to tell whether all these gossips were true or not, but Ann could tell that Phillip was not easy
to get along with.
...
When Ann and Karl were waiting outside for the interview, Daisy came in with a card in her hand.
Daisy was curvy, gorgeous, but also demure and elegant. She seemed as if she wasn't nervous about
sneaking out at all.
She attracted much attention while she came, but she didn't care. She just raised her eyes to look at
Ann and Karl who were standing there.
"Are you nervous?"
Ann nodded and said, "A little."
Ann knew Daisy when she was working part-time abroad. Daisy came from a wealthy family. They had
similar interests and had become best friends since then.
It was said that Daisy's family had forced her to work in the Moore Group.
It was hard to say how people who tried their best to get in the company would complain about the
unfairness of life if they knew about this.
Daisy patted her on the shoulder calmly. "I won't say things like you will make it if you work hard. If
that's really the case, everyone can succeed. If you don't get the job, I'll buy you snacks."
Here it was, Daisy's "jinx".
Karl smiled helplessly, "Not an option! After the interview, we'll come back to my place for dinner. My
mom now loves Ann more than me!"
Daisy raised her eyebrows slightly. "Are you planning to get married?"
Ann pursed her lips and didn't say anything. She took it as a yes.
Ann was very satisfied with her life now. After a few months, her father would come out of the prison;
Nikki was growing up, and she also slowly got over the past. She owed all these to Karl.
He knew about her past but he was still willing to accept her. And he also took good care of Nikki. To
her, that was enough.
Karl put his arm around her shoulder intimately and smiled.
"Soon! Don't forget our wedding present!"
Daisy looked at Ann with her beautiful eyes. With a faint smile, she just nodded.
...
"Next, Ann Scott, Tayler Morph, and Karl Jobson."
Karl took a deep breath and suddenly lowered his head to kiss Ann's forehead. He blinked at her.
"Trying to pass courage."
"Good luck," he said with a smile.
Many people came to the interview, so the Group set up several rooms. Ann and Karl happened to be
interviewed in different rooms but at the same time.
Before Ann came in, Daisy said,
"The CEO is in this room."
Ann got nervous and turned around to look at Daisy.
Daisy slightly curled her lips and patted Ann on the shoulder.
"Don't worry. Even if it doesn't work out, Karl will take care of you." She then paused, "And I will be
generous enough to buy you more snacks."
"..."
Again, Daisy's jinx.
...
Taking a deep breath, Ann pushed the door open and entered the interview room. She gave a brief
introduction to herself.
As soon as she sat down, she felt a gaze looking at her. It was not piercing, but it gave off a strong
sense of oppression.
When she looked up, she found that the interviewers were kind, but the man sitting in the middle had a
cold expression. He kept staring at her.
Ann recalled that he was the man in the website link.
The current CEO of the Moore Group, Phillip Moore.
