Chapter 40 

Genevieve thought Erica had contacted her with another phone number, so the former immediately answered it. “Hello?” 

“Is this Ms. Genevieve?” the person on the other end of the line asked politely. 

After hearing that the person was not Erica, Genevieve felt her heart sink. “Yes. I am. Is something the matter?” 

“I am from Central Group‘s HR department,” the person said politely. “We‘re quite interested in your resume. Do you have the time to come over for an interview on Thursday, nine o‘clock in the morning?” 

Just then, Genevieve remembered she had sent her resume to Steven. She had no idea she would receive a call so soon. 

“I‘m free on that day. Do I need to bring any materials with me?” After returning from finishing her studies in Dartan, she had never worked before. Apart from heading overseas occasionally to help Cooper, she had no working experience. Therefore, she had never attended an interview at other companies. 

After jotting down the materials she needed to bring for the interview, she continued chatting with the man for a while. When she hung up the call, the car had just reached home. 

After returning home, she took off her jacket and hung it on the clothes rack. While doing so, she realized that there was another thin black coat on the rack. When she got near, she could smell a faint scent that seemed like perfume. 

“Maria.” After hanging up her jacket, she asked, “Is Mando back yet?” 

Maria nodded. “Mr. Faulkner returned two hours ago and immediately entered the study room with Steven. I went to send them some coffee just now. They seem to be busy with work.” 

Genevieve turned back to eye the jacket on the clothes rack, deciding not to bother about the perfume. After all, the man she met in the dessert shop did not wear that jacket. It seems like the man really wasn‘t Armand.
