Hiding Behind Her Superficiality by Kyla Olson

Chapter 49 The Crisis of His Ex

“Not bad.”

“See! You watched my interview! Just admit it!” Elspeth flicked her hair, her smile mysterious and ambiguous.

“If you don’t have anything else to say, go back to work,” Callum ordered her to leave for fear that she would use this chance to tease him again.

“Aw, don’t be so indifferent. Are you a man? How can you be so calm when a gorgeous woman is flirting with you?”

She clicked her tongue and was about to leave when Edmund walked in on her and said, “This year, there are a total of one hundred people to participate in the interview. Eighty failed the written test, and the remaining twenty were waiting in the interview room. When can you go over?”

Houston was supposed to be in charge of the recruitment, but after he was fired, they didn’t have a qualified staff to serve as the head of the HR Department, so Edmund was temporarily put in charge of recruitment.

Elspeth blinked as she quickly recalled that it was indeed the annual recruitment day.

“I’ll go over later.”

Edmund spotted Elspeth too and teased, “Well, you guys seem to spend a lot of time together now. I think you don’t have to get along with us anymore. Just marry Callum.”

Although he was prompting her and Callum to be together, she could hear an intense mockery in his tone.

A cold light flashed across Callum’s eyes. “You talk too much.”

Edmund shrugged casually and turned to say to her, “You see what he’s like, right? This is a friendly reminder from me to you. Don’t regret it when you choose to be with him and are bullied.”

“It’s none of your business,” Elspeth answered with a smile that didn’t reach her eyes.
