Chapter 43
Ice-Cold Ceo, Crazy Love
Royâs attention was drawn to Benâs long legs.
Royâs heart throbbed as she focused on Ben.
Roy dreamed. âYoung and promising as the CEO of the Storm Group is, he is rather lowâkey and mysterious.
What exactly does he look like? Is he stunningly handsome?â
She looked up with an expectant look, only to find Benâs scary face.
Disappointed at Benâs appearance, Roy couldnât help but scream in shock.
She thought to herself, âThis monster is the CEO of the Storm Group:
What a horrible man he looks like!â
Hearing Royâs screaming, the public frowned and looked at her.
Realizing that she had been frivolous, she got embarrassed instantly.
But she got better when she found Susan looking down at the floor.
She grabbed Susan and said to Ben, âBen, you come for the post, right? This is Susan.â
Ben wrinkled his brows and replied indifferently, âOh?â
It was hard to tell Benâs mood from his voice.
Unsure about Benâs mood, Susan bowed her head nervously.
âSusan, I advise you to come clean to Ben since he has already known it. There was no use for you to keep silent. Ben might go easy on you if you are honest enough. Am I right?â Roy made her suggestions to Susan before she turned to Ben. âSir, Susan is wrong this time, but she is goodâ
natured. Please be lenient to her for my sake.â
Roy was quite satisfied with her words.
But others were disdainful of her, darting a contemptuous look at her.
After a while, Ben cast an icy look at Luke and asked indifferently. âWho is this?â
âNew employee, Roy Kelin.â Luke put on a wry smile.
âNew employee? I thought she became the director instead.â Ben mocked, stone- faced.
Ben thought, âWho was she and why she dared to say âfor my sake?
I didnât think she was somebody.â
Roy was pale at Benâs scorn and gritted her teeth, speaking no more words.
âBen, youâve come just at the right moment.â Luke took a deep breath, âI intended to explain for the post. Iâve decided to post the interview grades of the three new employees.
âPost their grades?â
Ben frowned and glanced at Susan subconsciously.
He got no idea about Susanâs performance during the interview.
âTheir marks could be seen on the Staff BBS.â Luke said slowly, âNow, Ben, Iâd like to report their grades since we are all here.â
Ben raised his eyebrows and said nothing.
Susan was not bad since Luke wanted to announce their grades.
Ben was somewhat curious now.
He wondered what kind of grades Susan would get.
âOK, Jaron.â Luke said flatly. âEighty.â
Jaronâs eyes widened. He got panicked in retrospect.
He knew eighty was the threshold score of the Storm Group.
He couldnât be admitted to the company if he got one single point lower than it.
âThen, Roy Kelin,â Luke started as he glanced at Roy.
Roy was kind of excited while waiting for her score.
She thought to herself that she got at least eighty points since she had been Chapter it admitted.
No worse than Jaron.
Luke said slowly as Roy saw herself high, âSixty.â
Roy was suspicious about her marks, âSixty?â
âThatâs impossible!â Roy screamed.
Luke ignored her and continued, âSusan Miller.â
At this point, Luke paused.
Roy immediately suppressed her panic, expecting a lower score given to Susan.
âFull marks.â Luke enunciated each word carefully.
Roy seriously doubted it inside.
Other programmers had long known the truth and they were pretty calm.
But Jaron and Roy were in great shock.
Jaron still had his control over his face.
Roy just freaked out and she stood up abruptly, her voice shrill and harsh, âImpossible! That was impossible. I donât think she was that good. Luke, please be honest with her mark. Though you would like to defend her, stop the lies.â
âAll the interviews have been recorded,â said Luke impassively. âYou could watch the video if you are not convinced.â
âThen show me! Iâm not convinced.â Roy said without hesitation.
âBen?â Luke looked at Ben, wondering his reaction.
Ben noted that Susan still remained quiet while Roy had already lost her control. He agreed, âAs she wishes.â
âAlright.â Luke answered tersely and instantly arranged the video.
Actually, panic registered Royâs face when she saw Luke was composed as usual, but she tried hard to comfort herself.
She said to herself inside, âSusan couldnât get a full mark. Luke must have hed Yes, Luke lied about Susanâs markâ
Luke soon got the video after a few minutes.
Ben asked to project the video on the super big screen.
The recorded interview videos of Susan, Jaron and Roy were being played at the same time, each of them occupying one part of the screen, Royâs eyes were riveted by Susanâs interview.
The video was so clear that Susanâs typing fingers were seen clearly.
The video soon showed the scene of the first question.
And Roy was impressed by the question.
It was no easy task and she spent half an hour to find out the faulty code. As for how to make amendments, she didnât have a clue about it.
She couldnât figure it out.
She believed Susan couldnât either.
On the screen, Jaron and Roy cudgeled their brains.
Yet it took Susan merely one minute to find out the problem.
Roy was speechless.
She continued to comfort herself, âSusan was just lucky!â
After Susan found out the faulty code, she immediately wrote down the code to fix the bug.
It didnât take her long and the code was perfect after being fixed.
Roy looked awful.
She wondered if Susan was really that excellent.
Ben had fixed his eyes on Susan in silence, his feelings mixed.
He had searched Susanâs background before and knew she was once a programmer MMMM in Timothyâs company.
IL 75% 10:07 People were always praising Timothy and recognized his ability in computer and business.
But no one ever mentioned Susanâs ability.
So he thought Susan didnât do good.
But it was the reverse.
Susan showed her talent in it and hard work.
Then why would she keep a low profile all these years?
Ben couldnât help but glance at Susan.
She still bowed her head and didnât look at him.
Ben failed to restrain his laughter.
He thought with a smile, âSusan, any more surprises for me?
I will wait and sec.â
