Chapter 4

My phone vibrated.

I answered a call from a woman. "Hello, Miss Evans, what's going on? Didn't we schedule an interview for this afternoon? Why aren't you here yet?"

I was stunned. "An... interview?"

She clicked her tongue. "Are you out of your mind?! You forgot something this important?"

"This is a housekeeping position for the CEO of Thorne Industries! Where else are you going to find a job this good?"

"Liam Thorne?" I almost blurted his name.

Someone spoke next to her, and she reminded me again, "Hurry up, you've got an hour left! I already sent you the address, didn't I?"

After the call ended, I found the text message with the address.

Then, I quickly took the subway and rushed over.

The address was far.

After getting off the subway, I took a bus to the nearest stop.

Then walked for another half hour before finally arriving.

I was drenched in sweat, and just as I got close, a light rain started, leaving me completely disheveled.

Hesitating for a moment, I still rang the doorbell.

The door opened.

A young woman's face appeared.

She was still wearing loungewear.

Seeing her attire, I froze for a moment.

Immediately, a dull ache spread through the depths of my heart.
