Rose ended the call. The exhaustion on her face was evident.
Sean handed her a glass of red wine with a smile." Have a drink. You might forget your worries for a while."
Rose took the glass, but when she was reminded that Jay had forbidden her from drinking after she was drunk the last time, she placed the glass on the table.
"I'm not good with alcohol. I've stopped drinking," Rose said frankly.
Sean looked at Rose's clear, sparkling eyes. He was reminded of how she had declined his unreasonable request when they first met. Her unyielding principles had given him a lasting impression.
"Why are you looking for a job?" Sean asked her.
Rose was surprised. She did not expect that Sean would remember that she had asked him to help her find a job a few days ago.
Rose thought for a while and answered, "Some people work to survive, and some people work for pleasure. A s for myself, I work to prove my worth to the people I care for."
Sean tipped the wine glass in his hand. The blood-red liquid swirled in the glass and looked as alluring as
his smile. "You're the most special girl that I've ever seen. Come work at my company, Rose Loyle!"
Rose tightened her grip on her cutlery. Her knuckles whitened. They looked frail but carried an immense strength.
Rose regained her composure a short while later.
She acted as though she was pleasantly surprised. "M r. Bell, a company like Bell Enterprise would surely only hire graduates from prestigious universities. I don't have high academic qualifications or anything remarkable. I'm afraid that I'll only bring the company nothing but trouble."
Sean looked into Rose's earnest eyes. "I need you, Rose."
Rose inhaled sharply. "Mr. Bell, I am a divorcee with three children. Please don't have any ulterior motives for hiring me. That will be bad for your business." This is property © NôvelDrama.Org.
"You think too much,” Sean placed his glass on the table and crossed his fingers. He looked at Rose with the utmost seriousness. "I can't deny that I have feelings for you, but Jay Ares might not agree with it. Rose, I'm inviting you to my company so that you can help me build my empire."
Rose laughed. "You are the heir to Bell Enterprise.
Why do you need to build your own empire?"
Sean's expression was shrouded in gloom. "If even you would want to prove your worth to other people, then why should I be satisfied with being an heir who inherits everything without any actual effort? I want t ode a pioneer."
Sean looked incredibly serious. He did not seem like h e was joking at all.
Rose thought, 'Bell Enterprise is already a big corporation second only to Grand Asia. If Sean isn't happy with Bell Enterprise's current situation, is his ambition to overtake Grand Asia?'
"Do you plan to overtake Grand Asia as the biggest corporation, Mr. Bell?" Rose asked uneasily.
Sean stared at Rose but shook his head.
Rose felt immediately at ease.
However, her doubts remained. "The market is so big. I f you're not planning to take Grand Asia's crown as the market leader, then whose pie are you going to stick your fingers in?"
She was worried that his answer might be the Severe Enterprise in Swallow City.
While Rose waited uneasily for Sean's answer, Sean's face slightly scrunched up in anger.
"My target is... Bell Enterprise."
Rose was shocked.
"Why?" She did not understand.
Sean's anger dissipated, but what replaced it was a strong resentment.
His eyes started sparkling as tears welled up.
He was reminded of some memories that he would rather forget.
