Chapter 35: Fail to Whitewash
After Summer finished her interview, she was badgered by “Douglas” and hadn't watched it online.
She turned on her computer and browsed the web pages. She found that the interview was covered by
many media and re-posted by quite a number of Weibo influencers.
Most people were cursing her, but some relatively rational netizens were analyzing the words she said. Text © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.
“I knew that she was hyping. Do those people who said that she was pitiful feel pain in their faces?”
“Why was she acting like a diva? She even wore a mask when she was interviewed”
“I'm the only one who thinks her words against reporters are cool?”
“I found that she never admitted that she stole her sister's fiancé.”
Seeing the last comment, Summer couldn't help but smile.
She didn’t answer that question on purpose. If she admitted that she had stolen Vicky's fiancé, who
knew if Vicky would
continue to make trouble for her because of it?
Summer was rarely this happy. She continued to flip through the comments.
“Is this drama a serial show? I don’t have enough melons for it. I'll go buy some more ... Looking
forward to the next episode”
When Summer saw through the Jarretts, she did not want to obey them like before. So, she would not
let this matter go.
Not long after, all the comments about Summer's interview on the Internet suddenly became curses.
Summer knew that Vicky had found an army of Weibo trolls.
She didn’t care about Vicky's small movements.
Vicky herself was not innocent. They lived under the same roof. It was too easy to dig up dirt on Vicky.
She would let the Jarretts happy for one more day. Then she would release all the scandals tomorrow.
She wanted to make sure that Vicky could never get away with these!
After going through the comments for a while, Summer logged into the mailbox and found that there
was an unread email.
When she opened it, she was shocked.
It was an interview invitation from the Tip Top Media Company!
Did she send a résumé to them?
She checked her mailbox several times and confirmed that she did not. So, she was extremely
puzzled.
Suddenly, she remembered that “Douglas” had taken her to dinner with Carl.
She looked at the time the e-mail was sent. It was nine in the morning, the time when she was having
that interview.
After thinking for a while, she decided to ask “Douglas”.
In the living room, Leonardo sat on the sofa and played games.
Tim was answering the phone behind him. He put Carl on the speaker.
Carl was freaking out on the other side, “I just went out to have dinner with Leonardo. When I went
back to the company,
those directors went crazy. Tell him that if he doesn't come back, I will go to the rooftop and jump off the
building”
Tim looked at Leonardo, who was playing the game. He said calmly, “Mr. Emerson is busy”
Of course, Carl didn’t believe him, “He's busy my ass! What the hell is he doing? You turn on the
camera and let me see him!”
At this time, Leonardo said, “OK”
The corners of Tim's mouth twitched. Mr. Emerson was trying to piss Mr. Jones off!
Tim turned on the camera and pointed it to Leonardo.
When Carl saw Leonardo playing games, he jumped up and said angrily, “I was almost killed by those
old guys in the company. You just sit at home leisurely and play games!”
“Yeah; Leonardo replied. Then with a casual glance, he found that Summer had come downstairs.
He gave Tim a look. Tim understood and turned off the speakerphone, “Mr. Jones, I have to hang up”
Carl also saw Summer in the video just now. He was curious about Summer and Leonardo that he
threatened Tim, “If you
dare to hang up, I will kill myself!”
Tim knew that even if he hung up the phone, Carl wouldn't really die. But for the first time, he didn’t
hang up the phone, nor
shut the camera.
Summer saw “Douglas” in the living room on the corridor of the second floor, so she came down to find
him. When she got
closer, she saw that Tim was also there.
However, Tim had been typing on his phone. He looked much focused and did not look over. Only then
did she walk towards
“Douglas” with confidence.
She sat down opposite “Douglas” and said, “I want to ask you something”
Leonardo lifted his eyelids, then lowered his head and continued to play the game, “What?”
“You're familiar with Mr. Jones of the Tip Top Media Company?” Summer said thoughtfully.
Leonardo's movements paused. Because of the two seconds of pause, the characters he controlled in
the game were killed by the enemy.
He casually threw his phone to the side and looked at Summer with a faint smile, “What, did you take a
fancy to him?”
Summer frowned, “Can you speak properly?”
Leonardo stretched out his arms and put them on the sofa. He leaned back, looking cool, “You sit next
to me first”
“Forget it” Summer got up and was about to leave.
She took two steps away, and then heard Leonardo's deep voice, “You're looking for a job. So, you
want to ask about the offer, right?”
Summer suddenly stopped and looked back at him with surprise, “How do you know?”
“Carl told me that the company needs fresh blood, so he picked some college graduates for the
company”
After Leonardo finished speaking, he stared at Summer. He sized her up and down, and then he
frowned, “Did you receive an offer from their company?”
Although his expression did not change much, Summer could see contempt on his face.
She pursed her lips and put on a fake smile, “I’m not happy to go’
After saying that, she left without looking back.
Leonardo narrowed his eyes and watched her disappear from the staircase. He maintained this posture
for a while.
How did this ugly woman get the confidence to challenge him?
Tim, who was familiar with Leonardo, clearly felt that the atmosphere was heavy. Mr. Emerson seemed
to be angry.
Tim got so nervous that he lowered his head to hang up the phone, only to find that Carl had hung up
earlier.
The next moment, a phone rang in the living room.
Leonardo looked at his phone and found that it was Carl.
Leonardo picked it up and said coldly, “If you want to jump off the company, just do it. There's no need
to notify me”
Unexpectedly, Carl on the other side burst into a great laugh like a freak, “You just keep exploiting me.
Now karma has found you. You pulled strings for your wife, but she doesn't even want to go there. Are
you very angry now?”
“When I think of how angry you are now, I'm so happy that I can't stop laughing!”
Leonardo smiled and said gloomily, “I won't go back until my wife enters the company”
Carl was defeated and said, “I was wrong.”
In response, the phone was hung up and Carl only heard the busy tone.
