Ten minutes later, Jean was done with his interview.

He pushed the door open and walked out.

Bianca immediately got to his feet. "How was it?"

"The interviewers ask some tough questions, but it isn't anything we can't handle." Jean could not help but kiss Bianca on the forehead, saying calmly," Overall, it's not bad."

Bianca heaved a sigh of relief. 1

"Next, Bianca Rayne," the female secretary called out.

Bianca hurriedly straightened out her clothing and went inside anxiously.

The second she walked into the room, Luke looked at her with a complicated gaze.

Bianca sat down properly and raised her head, meeting each interviewer's eyes, one at a time.

After that, she introduced herself briefly. "Good morning, everyone. First of all, thank you for giving me this opportunity to attend this interview. My name i s Bianca Rayne."

Since she decided to return to this country and find a job here, she had come up with plenty of interview openers in her mind.

It may not be the most creative way to begin, but it was solid enough and faultless.

The interview continued on.

Luke assessed her with his cold gaze.

Perhaps his stare was just too piercing. While Bianca responded to all of the interview questions expertly, she felt extremely uncomfortable all over.

It did not just feel like someone was glaring daggers at her. Instead, it felt like a peculiar type of thorn pricking her all over her body.

In truth, Bianca had glanced at Luke too when she first walked into the room. 1

Nevertheless, this was a formal interview, and she had to treat it seriously. Although she had plenty of questions in her heart, she did not dare to let her guard down and become distracted. 1

"Miss Rayne, are you married?" Luke's cool voice suddenly interrupted the interviewers, asking a question that left all the professional interviewers speechless.

All the interviewers stopped their formal exchange with Bianca, turning to look at their big boss in unison. He was part of the panel too.

"No, I'm not," Bianca said, trying to calm herself down. Her heart was actually already racing.

"In that case, do you have someone you intend to marry?" Luke frowned and asked again. 1

Bianca paused for a moment before she nodded and replied, "I do."

The interviewers were all feeling quite lost. Why was their boss asking this question? 1

Their short conversation allowed Bianca to get a better look at Luke's gorgeous features. Now that she had seen him in person, he did look a lot like that upperclassman from the high school next door back then.
