Chapter 87
The Love that Never Really Dies
They headed to the office in silence, and Sasha figured that Sebastian still hated her. Maybe he
doesn't even remember that I'm here... As she calmed down, her disappointment returned as well. So
this is my fate? After they reached the office building, Sebastian pulled into the reserved parking
spot and alighted from the car to ride his exclusive lift to his office. Sasha did the same, only to be
stopped by him. âWhat do you think you're doing?â he asked coldly. Sasha froze. He finally spoke
up... She shrugged nonchalantly. âI'm going outside, Mr. Hayes. No one in this company knows me,
and I'd rather not let them see me with you.
" With that, she grabbed her bag and scurried off before he could say anything in response. He
stood rooted to the ground in silence as his face darkened like the sky before a storm, but he left
soon after without another word. As for Sasha, she walked into the building through the front door
with her head held high after escaping from the carpark. âGreetings, miss. May I ask what you're
here for?â âOh... who? Me?â Sasha was distracted for a moment as she stared at the receptionist in
confusion. Wait, what's my position again? What am I going to do? Wait for him to assign me work
after I go to his office? That's going to take forever! He might even have forgotten about me,
considering how much he hates me...
She frowned and decided to give it a shot. âI'm here to look for a job. Are there any vacant positions
in your company?â âHuh? You're looking for a job? Have you sent your resume to our HR
department yet?â the receptionist asked, shocked. Does she think that this is a market where she
could just pick and choose a job as she wishes? Unbeknownst to the receptionist, that was exactly
what Sasha was going to do. All she needed was a job to satisfy her son's request, and she decided
on a clerk position in the business department in the end. She walked up the stairs to the interview
room nonchalantly, only to bump into Luke after the interview was over. He was tasked with looking
for âthe President's wifeâ, which happened to be Sasha. By the time he found her, she had already
passed the interview like it was nothing. âAre you sure you're going to recruit her?â he asked the
head of the business department in shock. âWhy not? No one has ever gotten full marks on this
test?
" the head of the business department said while waving the test in front of Luke's eyes. Luke fell
silent as he looked at the sheer number of red ticks on the paper. With a sigh, he walked over to
Sasha's side and said, âMadam, would you like to work in the President's office? The work there isn't
as taxing as this... â âIt's fine. I'd rather work here,â Sasha said, cutting him off. She picked up a stack
of documents and headed over to the photocopier machine to avoid him. The last thing she wanted
was to face that scum of a man everyday. Luke pursed his lips but did not say anything else. He
headed upstairs again after muttering a few words of caution. When he returned to the President's
office,
Sebastian was still hunched over the documents on his table just like how he had been when Luke
left. He was late that day, and things have already piled up on his table by the time he arrived. Luke
hesitated before walking up to him and saying, âMr. Hayes, the business department has already
taken Ms. Wand in.â âThe business department?â Sebastian said, looking up with a raised eyebrow.
After a few seconds, his confused expression turned into a smug grin. Wait... why is he smirking? Did
he already know that sheâs going to the business department or something? "Did you see this coming,
Mr. Hayes?" Luke asked, confused. Sebastian shook his head with a grin. âShe's just here to fulfil
lanâs request,
so there's no way she'll take this seriously. I bet she chose the business department out of interest.â
âInterest? She likes doing business?â âI think so. Do you remember that call from Nikkawa-Gen?"
Sebastian asked. Luke froze for a moment. âNikkawa-Gen? Do you mean that company that we
didn't manage to acquire?â âYeah. She was the one who took the call, and she noticed things that
even the vice president of the business department didn't see. She's talented, so I'm not surprised
she picked that department in the end,â Sebastian answered calmly.
