61 Wan Lin

'Cluck cluck' The sound of high heels against the floor echoed on the floor as the 'woman' walked after the staff in front.

"Please take a seat, we'll have the interview soon." The staff informed her politely and the woman with brunette hair sat down and gazed around the room.

'Very well decorated. Not too much nor too less. Extremely professional.' The woman remarked in her heart as she looked around the office, her shoulder length 'brunette' hair swishing around lightly.

"Please come in Miss Wan Lin." The male staff called her and she walked into the interview room gracefully.

The first impression of the interviewer was that the woman whom just entered looked really elegant. She had a neutral expression on her face and her choice of clothing, a black suit and pants showed her professionalism.

She had glasses on, which hid her eyes to a certain extent, but upon closer observation, anyone would see that her dark black eyes were extremely beautiful. She looked pale and thin but she held herself upright.

"Miss Wan Lin, you are applying for the position of the CEO's secretary, correct?" The interviewer asked her.

"Yes. I'm certain you have seen my resume. Are there any questions?" Wan Lin asked in a neutral voice.

The interviewer then proceeded to ask questions after questions. He was extremely satisfied with her answers and ended the interview.

"Do you have any question Miss Wan Lin?" He asked. After the conversation, he found her to be extremely intelligent.

It was very tiring for him to find a secretary since most of them applied just so they could be near his handsome boss.

Countless secretaries were fired and he was desperately hoping for things to be different this time or he would end up being kicked out. He definitely didn't want to lose this high paying job.

"Yes." Wan Lin said. Then she flashed a confident smile before asking,"When do I start?"

************ Quince was feeling strange as he sat in his large open spaced office. There was a large window behind him that enabled him to look outside and the office interior was decorated professionally with tasteful furnitures and art pieces.

One moment ago he was sitting and doing his work like normal but he suddenly had a strange feeling in his heart.

Something sprouted in his chest and he felt himself warped into a different atmosphere. It was but a whisper of an atmosphere but...it reminded him of her.

He felt like she was near here but that was completely ridiculous. He didn't know where she was and it definitely wasn't possible to sense another human being.

He stared at his phone and looked at her contact number, feeling frustrated. She didn't call him back nor did she text him.

He kept staring at the number wanting to call her but he didn't have a proper reason to do so. He didn't want to seem clingy or creepy to her. Another part of him was also angry that she simply didn't bother.

He soon decided to shrug off the feeling and continued with his work, that strange feeling still in his heart but eventually faded away.

"How was it Reine?" Madam Monique asked, sounding extremely excited on the phone.

"It went very well. I think I will get it." Queen replied as she took the fake no eye power glasses off her face.

"This is simply great! Though you should just let me tell them to hire you immediately." Madam Monique exclaimed before whining towards the end.

"You already helped by sending my resume to the HR department Madam. I was sure I would have gotten it. Besides I didn't want to be accused of using connections." Queen said and pulled the black wig off her head revealing her beautiful caramel hair.

Right now Queen was taking off her disguise. The crumpled paper she pulled from Cream Puff was the job announcement for the CEO's secretary of the De Roi group.

As soon as she saw that, plans after plans sprouted in her head and it inspired her to disguise herself for the interview. She contacted Quince's mom to help her with the initial process before being called for the interview.

"Reine, won't Quince know that it's you?" Madam asked worriedly.

"I doubt it. You saw my picture and you couldn't recognize me at all." Queen said.

Everything Queen said was quite believable as Queen had practiced the art of disguise and is a professional at it.

When Queen disguises herself, it's not just the appearance that changes, it's the air around her that is completely different as well.

That's why till now no one she knows had ever made the connection between her disguise self and her real self before.

"Well that is true." Madam Monique said.

They chatted for a bit more before Queen hung up the phone. She then proceeded to remove her black contact lenses, revealing her gorgeous golden eyes once more.

She was busy throughout the day, getting the preparations ready that she forgot to call Quince back. Thinking of him, she unlocked her phone to dial his number.

Toot~toot~

The phone continued ringing with no one picking it up. The call wasn't connecting.

Seeing that Queen merely shrugged before switching her phone off and went to take a shower.

**********

Quince was watching his phone ring. The name shining on his screen was the person he wanted to talk to the most.

However, since he was still somewhat angry and didn't want to seem too eager to pick up her phone, he continued letting it ring. But he waited for too long as the phone already stopped vibrating.

Quince waited for her to call again.

1 minute went by....

2 minutes went by....

Nth minutes went by....and she still didn't call him!

Quince had an annoyed look on his face before unlocking his phone to dial her number.

Only for her phone to be off.

Seeing that Quince scoffed coldly before going to his study room to do his work, hoping it would distract his thoughts from her.

Only to realize after 3 hours that he barely got his work done.
