I’m really into Thalassa.” Leopold didn’t say it out loud, just kept it to himself.
Looking at his glum face, Lysander said, “You just gonna let your new company go to shit like this?
Instead of drowning in sorrow here, you’re better off busting your ass at work.”
Leopold snapped out of it and put down his glass. With a slight drunken glint in his eyes, he chuckled,
“Eh, I just got some crap on my mind, so chew the fat with you. Guess I’ll bounce and get back to work.
Sorry to bug you.”
Leopold got up and left.
Having finished the red wine Leopold had just poured him, Lysander moved back to his desk and got
down to business.
Thalassa was on the web, hunting for a job with a fat paycheck.
Suddenly, her phone rang. Someone invited her for an interview.
It was a company where she’d shot off her resume the night before.
This company was new in Starhaven with loads of positions to fill.

moon and jumped at the
That afternoon, she put on some minimal makeup and suited up with her professional women’s outfit.
Feeling pumped, she headed out.
Though the company was fresh off the boat, it was no small fry.
Even if it couldn’t hold a candle to international corporations like the Sinclair group, it was no small
potatoes.
It was a big–league company.
If she could land a secretary gig there, it would be nice.
Thalassa walked into the interview room. There were three interviewers, two guys in professional suits.
One woman, in a professional women’s suit, looked every bit the white–collar worker.
Thalassa sat across from them, feeling a bit jittery.
The female interviewer glanced at her resume and asked, “You spent two years at Starhaven College
but didn’t graduate. Care to explain?”
That was a pretty personal question.
chance.
Thalassa couldn’t tell them that she got knocked up and had to take a break to take care of the baby
bump. Then she had to raise the kid and didn’t have time to finish college.
All she could say was, “Because of some personal issues, I got hurt and had to drop out.”
Right then, on the computer screen in the CEO’s office, the CCTV footage from the interview room was
playing.
Since the company was just getting off the ground, Leopold didn’t have any big matters to deal with. He
needed to review the recruitment.
He glanced at the computer screen absentmindedly. He saw a familiar face and looked away, and then
he snapped his gaze back.
In the video, Thalassa was sitting there, facing the interviewers with hands on her lap. She was calm
and composed when answering their questions.
That woman was Thalassa!
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmSeeing Thalassa, Leopold felt a rush of excitement.
Then he heard Thalassa say that she had to drop out because she got hurt for personal reasons.
That year, Thalassa had dropped out right after summer vacation.
It indicated that the hurt she was talking about was caused by him!
He was tricked by Isabella, things happened, and he betrayed Thalassa.
Even though Thalassa broke up with him decisively, the pain from that time must’ve made it impossible
for her to move on, so she had to drop out, right?
Yup, that must be it.
Leopold’s hand was resting on the desk, trembling slightly with excitement.
Thalassa’s interview was still going on.
