The Heiress’ Return: Six Brothers at Her Beck and Call

Chapter 1602 Hand Over Your Phones

Valen Village served as the perfect cover for the company. Even if someone were to investigate, they would only reach the outskirts. No one would suspect anything amiss inside the company, let alone find concrete evidence.

On the surface, Nexus Corporation appeared entirely legitimate. Besides handling students' overseas formalities, the company was also involved in various international services such as travel visas and work permits.

They even possessed detailed information about foreign institutions and boarding arrangements, including some that were affiliated with prestigious institutions. It seemed that the company's backer was a force to be reckoned with.

Wynter quickly gathered the information for fear that her phone would soon be confiscated. Just as she was about to head to the lounge, Melanie suddenly appeared.

"Ms. Linden, you will be interviewed in two different languages. As per our confidentiality protocols, we will need to confiscate your phone. It will be returned to you once the result is out," Melanie stated.

Though her reasoning was valid, Wynter still showed hesitation-a perfect reflection of her current persona.

Seeing Wynter's apprehension, Melanie swiftly assured her, "You can switch off your phone before handing it over. Rest assured, we won't pry into its contents."

Her words weren't only meant for Wynter but also the other four students presented. In an age when phones were indispensable, many kept their personal secrets within.

Given safety concerns, one wouldn't simply give away their phones. But considering that Nexus Corporation was a major entity, such a request was likely a standard part of their protocols.

As the students turned in their phones, Wynter passed off a worn-out phone as "hers".

After collecting the phones, Melanie flashed a smile. "Alright then, feel free to enjoy some afternoon tea in the lounges. The second interview will begin in half an hour."

No one spoke while Melanie was around. As soon as she left, the four students turned to Wynter, who was the last to join. "Hey, did you pass the interview?"

When Wynter gave an affirmative nod, one of the students stated, "We passed, too! It seems like only those who did are allowed to rest here."

"There were so many candidates, but I think we're the only ones who got through," another deduced.

"That seems to be it. Let's grab a seat and chat a bit. The lady mentioned there were snacks, and honestly, I'm already hungry." Someone sighed.C0ntent © 2024 (N/ô)velDrama.Org.

The others agreed as they had been waiting since midnight—some were even picked up from their homes the previous night. They were too anxious to drink or eat before, and now they felt the hunger set in.

Still, Wynter couldn't help feeling something was amiss. Among the many candidates, only a select few had made it through the interview. Wynter proceeded to inquire the students about their ages and birthdays, only to discover they were all similar to Eliana's.

If the criteria for passing the first interview depended on their birthdays, what could the second interview entail? Unfortunately, the other students didn't share Wynter's worries. When they caught sight of the lounge, their eyes lit up in excitement. "Is this the spot where people at big corporations take their afternoon tea? It's gorgeous!" Featuring large floor-to-ceiling windows, the lounge certainly radiated a welcoming ambiance. A coffee machine stood on the table alongside an array of desserts. There were even sandwiches and milkshakes, all for weary guests to enjoy.
