Chapter 896

Ashlynn tied the necktie on and said, “I can be your assistant, but no one in the office can know who I am and you can’t give me any privilege.”

Corentin lifted her chin. “Any other woman would kill for me to make them an exception and you the only one who doesn’t want me to. I like it though.” He pinched her on the thigh.

She hid her legs under the blanket and muttered, “I’m not going today. I’m tired. I want to rest.”

“If you can go to work today, I would begin to doubt my ‘ capability‘“, he said evilly, before getting up to leave.

After resting for a day, Ashlynn went to the office for an interview. There were multiple rounds of interviews and they were all challenging as she could only rely on her own ability.

“The human resource department sent over three resumes including yours and we’ve decided to offer you this job. You’ve been an assistant before in Luton, so I hope you won’t disappoint me,” Evan said while flipping through her resume.

“I will work hard,” Ashlynn said.

He set the resume down and studied Ashlynn. “The Lloyd Group is an empire and plenty of people could only dream of working here, so consider yourself lucky. Your probation lasts for one month and you will need to satisfy Mr. Lloyd, so remember to always be careful and sharp by his side.”

“I understand.” She felt no pressure in pleasing Corentin.

“One last thing. Do not do anything in front of Mr. Lloyd that is not related to work.”
