Sweet Mischief’s Rollercoaster Romance

When Noah walked into the CEO's office, he couldn't help but notice the carefully placed copy of Leo's job application on the desk. Over the past few days, Noah had pieced together bits of the situation.

"Boss, need a hand with anything?" Noah asked.

Andre's response was curt and chilly, "No help needed."

Noah tried again, "But Leo's not from this field, and without the right qualifications, it's going to be tough for him..."

"This is the path he chose," Andre replied firmly.

Noah couldn't quite figure Andre out. It was obvious he cared, yet he kept his distance.

Andre exited Leo's profile and turned back to his work.

Leo's profile wasn't locked, so various companies could view it and send him interview invitations, which his email automatically accepted. This way, Andre could keep tabs on his nephew's job hunt.

Leo received a flood of spam emails, and several reputable companies even called him directly, trying to get him to interview for jobs in his field of study.

But Leo turned them all down. If he were to continue working in his field of study, leaving the company would be pointless. The Cedillo Group offered him better training and a higher salary, so why leave?

"Thank you for the offer, but my career interest lies in network technology, and I'm not looking to work in the financial sector right now."

The HR rep didn't give up, "Mr. Rivers, please reconsider. Our company offers talent subsidies and free housing for outstanding candidates. You've already got your junior certification, and we would allocate housing to you based on our talent standards." Leo politely declined again, "Sorry, but my preferred job is in network technology."

Afterward, Leo locked his resume, making it accessible only to himself and the companies he had applied to.

After a busy afternoon, when Andre tried to access Leo's profile again, he found it was no longer available.

Leo turned down several offers and drove back to his hotel. Once there, he resumed his search for new opportunities online.
