Beloved Old Lover

Chapter 4: Bright Candidate



Since Jennifer’s birthday party, Kevin has not gone out to meet or receive partners anymore.

The year-end projects are in the sprint stage, so he is forced to devote all his time to work if he wants to be worthy of the hot chair he is sitting in.

“Why is Venn late to work? It’s already nine o’clock.” Kevin looked at the watch in his hand and grumbled.

It’s been three years since Venn was recruited into Unicons Corporation to be Kevin’s personal assistant, he never came late to the company.

He always comes before everyone, his fingerprint is always the first fingerprint printed on the timekeeper every morning.

Kevin was about to call his assistant when he heard a knock on the door. A few seconds later, Daniel walked in.

Daniel saw the disappointed expression of Unicons general manager, so he crept over to the sofa and sat down.Property © NôvelDrama.Org.

“Are you waiting for someone?” Daniel just poured tea into a cup and asked.

Kevin was just about to open his mouth to answer when the phone rang, stopping him.

Venn’s phone number popped up, giving him an uneasy premonition.

He was late for work and now that he’s calling, something must have gotten in his way.

On the phone was a female voice, informing him that her brother had an accident and had just come out of the operating room.

Because Venn was worried that his boss would be waiting for him, as soon as he was transferred to the recovery room, he asked his sister to notify Kevin.

“Which hospital is he in?” Kevin squeezed the pen in his hand and asked.

“City hospital. Fifth floor.” The girl’s voice was still trembling.

“You tell him to rest assured and get treatment. I will visit him this afternoon.”

The sigh after Kevin’s call made his younger brother feel tired as well.

Initially, Daniel came here to ask if his brother would join him on a volunteer trip to the mountains during the upcoming holiday.

But now he saw Kevin’s tired look, so he decided to keep quiet, not asking anymore.

The completion of the franchise record of the fashion chain stores also means that the amount of work that Daniel undertakes increases.

In the past few months, the two of them rarely had time to talk to each other, even though they were living in the same house.

Daniel’s schedule is packed with meetings with designers as well as people with high expertise in the field of fashion to convince them to come under his command and build a new empire.

He spends more days abroad than in his home country.

Only today, he was able to relax a little when the city’s young business association called to inform him of the late autumn volunteering plan.

“What’s up? What’s the matter with whom?” Daniel narrowed his eyes and asked softly.

“Venn was in a traffic accident. He broke his leg. He must be out of work for at least a few months.”

After Kevin finished talking, he picked up the phone and called the human resources department, telling them to immediately post a new assistant job for him.

Although there are many people in the company, even if he closes his eyes, he can still choose a person to take Venn’s position, but he doesn’t want to.

This unpleasant character of his made even his brother uncomfortable.

“I’ll lend you Emma. Hiring new people will only make you more tired. How can the new person be equal to the old one?” Daniel stood up leisurely and put his hands in his pockets, approaching his brother.

“Dislike. If they were the person next to me, they must be selected by me from the moment they entered Unicons.” Kevin was still attentively signing, not looking up.

“A lot of people will be disappointed. How much is the match rate? I’m guessing there will be more females than males.”

Daniel said while leaving the room.

When the door closed, Kevin let go of the pen, leaned back in his chair, and scratched his hair.

Work is pressing him every day, but Venn is suddenly hospitalized, making him feel like his right arm has been cut off.

His hand found a picture of a girl in traditional clothes lying deep in the desk drawer and pulled it out and looked at it as a way to relieve stress.

Every time he remembers her abandoning him just because she realizes that love with a poor criminal will not have a rosy future, he seems to be energized to handle the pile of documents.

“Emily.”

Kevin called her name softly and sighed again.

After he signed a few more documents, because he felt frustrated, he pushed open the door, stepped out onto the balcony, and looked down at the courtyard.

The distance was quite high so that the figures moving below that entered his field of vision became tiny, unable to clearly see who was who.

And of course, he also couldn’t see the girl he just called walking through the main gate.

If Emily wants more time to move Kevin’s heart, she has to create opportunities for herself to appear in front of him more often.

And she has no choice but to become an employee of Unicons Corporation.

If his parents are in need of a maid, perhaps she will also bring an application to their house to apply for a job because then, the opportunity will increase many times.

“You graduated from Fashion Future but don’t want to work in this field?”

The female interviewer looked at Emily with wide eyes when she saw her certificate of excellence from a world-renowned fashion school.

“Because I really want to work at Unicons, but the corporation does not do business in this field.” Emily answered honestly.

To be honest, she still prefers working in fashion design.

She studied business administration because her father wanted her to have the knowledge to later inherit and develop the Wine Company.

Because she wants to create more attraction for her resume to attract the attention of employers, she has brought all of her degrees and certifications here.

The competition rate in the interview process at Unicons is very high and the employees working here are all excellent people with real abilities.

“Miss Emily, your profile is perfect, and you also have an outstanding appearance. You are really a good candidate for the position of Vice President of Sales of Unicons, but I think you should promote this degree. I want to inform you that the group is planning to enter the fashion and apparel segment. I hope you will be the first to help Deputy General Director Daniel implement his plan to dominate the domestic fashion industry.”

The smile on Emily’s lips was brighter than ever. She did not expect that she would have the opportunity to satisfy and devote herself to her true passion in the process of flirting with Kevin.

If Daniel is her boss, that’s fine. He is gentle and warm and he has accepted her as a friend so it will make her less pressured.

She believes that when Kevin sees her and Daniel close together, he will not be able to ignore her.

If she can’t make her ex-lover like her, she will choose to make him hate her.

When the hate has reached its peak, he will gradually fall in love with her just like in the beginning, just like when they were both in college.

“Yes. There is nothing better than working in a field that you are passionate about. I would like to apply for that position.” Emily nodded in agreement.

“Starting point will be a design staff. Do you have any regrets?” The second female interviewer was a bit shy.

“No, everyone has to go from low to high. I don’t mind moving from the position of a janitor to the chair of the department head.”

The confidence and progressive attitude, knowledge of the beautiful girl made the recruitment board satisfied.

For a whole week now, they have had to find the best candidates for the vacant positions.

Although Unicons Group has not yet started recruiting human resources for the fashion segment, because Emily’s profile is so beautiful, they decided to save her for Deputy General Director Daniel.

“Miss. Emily.”

The sudden voice made Emily turn her head in surprise and she realized that the person calling her was Daniel.

His smile carrying the rays of the spring sunshine made her mood more comfortable after the interview minutes.

For Kevin, she has to find a way to approach him, but Daniel seems to be predestined because he always appears in front of her unexpectedly.

“Hello, Deputy General Manager. Do you know this girl?” The female employee in charge of the interview spoke up.

“She is my friend. How’s it going? Did she pass?”

“Of course. Congratulations, she is an excellent student of Fashion Future so we have saved her for you.”

“Really?”

Daniel was delighted. He turned to ask Emily, and she nodded in affirmation as well.

He didn’t expect the two of them to be so fortunate to work together.

Although he has invited many famous designers to join Unicons, he really needs young people like her.

The thinking between the generations is different, and he needs to enrich his own brand.

“No wonder your fashion style is very different. Simple, but it has its own unique ways. Why didn’t I realize you’re a fashion designer?” He blamed himself.

“Because I still haven’t made any achievements or marks in the fashion industry, I don’t dare to introduce myself to you. I’m sorry.”

“Come on, let’s go to my office to drink tea and talk.”

He pointed to the ceiling and quickly walked away.

Emily also hurriedly followed in his footsteps.

Although Daniel knew she was the heir to the Wine company, he was not surprised to see her here for a job interview.

There was a precedent before that was Jennifer and countless heirs from corporations and companies in the country.

Most of them are fresh graduates or just returned from abroad, want to come here to work to gain experience and relationships, and then come back to take over the family company.

There are some people who will stay here for a long time because of disagreements with their parents or brothers.

However, Daniel knows that sooner or later they will still leave Unicons because family is the hardest thing to give up.

Earlier, Daniel went down to the interview room to see if there was anyone bright, hardworking, and suitable for the vacant position of Venn. And when he saw Emily, he didn’t have to wait for anyone else.
