Death sentence

Down stairs Emmanuel met his girlfriend waiting for him. She had special pushed her lunch break to one pm so that she would be able to meet her boyfriend.

If Whitney was here she would had recognized the lady as one of the two people she heard the news from.

"Baby, why are you here?" Emmanuel smile and hugged her as they walked out of the reception together.

"I heard the interview has come to an end. I specifically push my luch break forward so we could eat together and celebrate," The lady said.

"Oh," Emmanuel nodded his head. "Were should we go and eat?" he asked. After he finished his PhD course he has been looking forward to join smart cooperation.

"There is a restaurant down the street, we can just walk down. Their food taste good and the price is far," the lady say. Emmanuel nodded his head. "So did you get the job?" the lady asked.

"Baby, don't you trust me?" Emmanuel said with a proud smile.

"Of course I trust you, have you seen the president? Is he satisfied with you?" the lady asked in concern. She has worked in Smart cooperation for more than a year. So she knew the process of getting a job as the president secretary. The president had the final say, it was not necessary the best candidate that enters the president's eyes.

"See the president? What are you talking about?" Emmanuel asked.

"You did not go to the top floor to meet president Smart?" the lady frowned. She was beginning to feel that some things was not right when she saw his clues gaze.

"No," Emmanuel answered.

"Then you should forget about it, there would be an opening in three months, I would ask around and see how I can help you," the lady was very disappointed. She and Emmanuel were already talking about getting married. She had hoped that he would get the job so they could plan their wedding.

After which she would be the wife of the president secretary. In the entire Smart cooperation the most respected people besides special assistant Seb and the president Smart was his Sectarcery she did not expect him to not get the job.

"What do you mean? He chief examinina came to send me off, he even told me that I would get a reply soon," Emmanuel explained. He did not believe that with his qualifications and intelligence he would not be able to get a job.

"Then what of the other person? Was he invited away too?" the lady frown. She was not such if what was going on.

Emmanuel thought about it, he had seen the lady get into the elevator with the other man but he did not see her at the ground floor.

"I am not sure," Emmanuel shook his head. He did not see her at the ground floor but that did not mean that she was chosen. After all the other MSN could be her father. Just like how he had a girlfriend in Smart cooperation.

"Then let's wait, perhaps the HRM is not sure if the president would be satisfied with the other person. As long as he is not, then you would definitely be called," The lady said after hearing her boyfriend's reply.

"the other person was chosen? I though you said you did not get the post of a Sectarcery because no female staff was at the top floor?" Emmanuel frown deepen. He was wanted the job but he could not accept the fact that he lost to a woman. Especially a university graduate when he already had PhD in business administration.

Although he did not know Whitney's qualifications, he could guess that she has graduated from the university at most.

"yes," The lady frown, she did not understand why her boyfriend would suddenly ask such questions.

"Then if that's is the case the job is mine. The other person is a woman. I am sure that the HR director would be scolded badly," Emmanuel said. Although he did not feel comfortable losing to Whitney, it's was still fine as long as he got his job.

"Then we should celebrate, president Smart would never have a female Sectarcery at the head quarters," the lady was confident.

"Right," Emmanuel said as the two got into a restaurant. Emmanuel did not forget to order a bottle of wine to celebrate. "I can't drink, I have to go to work," the lady shook her head when she saw her boyfriend ordered a bottle of wine.

"Just a small sip to toast," Emmanuel said. He was very happy to celebrate with her. After all, a part of his success was to her credit. She had especially told him things to pay attention to. So he moved to the top two. When he thought about Whitney leaving with thar man, he felt that she did so well because she also had some to point out direction and things to pay attention to.

Fortunately, it's was impossible to use the back door to become the secretary of Mr Smart.

"I really can't drink, since you ordered the bottle already, take it home, we can celebrate after you receive a call. It's would not be too late after I got off work," The lady said. Although she had hifh level of alcohol tolerance but she knew that working in the company ment that she had to be careful. Even if she only took a sip. As long as there was evidence she might loss a part of her salary, or even her job. It's was not worth the risks.

She still wanted to become the wife of the secretary so that those big mouth colleagues of hers would leak her feet.. "alright," Emmanuel agreed. He felt that it's would not be too late in the evening. Moreover, if his girlfriend got into trouble because of this small wine, the lost outweigh the gain.

The two eat in a good mood. At the same time. In smart cooperation forum on whatapp, the news that the boss might be getting a female secretary was trending.

When many people heard that the HR director had taken the only female candidate to the top floor they doubted the news.

(even if her result is outstanding, the president would not agree to it)

(You are right, the president only allow make workers around him in the company)

(maybe she is related to the HR director, why else would he be stupid enough to take a female candidate to the top floor)

(my friend you have a point, I remember the HR director has a daughter. Could she be the one?)

(who knows)

(why don't we all calm down perhaps the lady is outstanding)

Different people had different guess but Whitney had her heart in her hands, as she stood in front of the devil's office. There was just a door standing in between the two of them.

She recognized Seb who was knocking at the door. She could still remember that this man almost slapped her the last time she was standing before the devil m

"enter," a cold voice come from inside. It's was just a single word but Whitney felt that a death sentence has been passed.
