Infatuated With My Adorable Wife

I'm Not Qualified?

Meanwhile, in Thomas Co.

Luca suddenly pointed at the computer screen and said, "Mr. Thomas, look… Isn't that Mr. Gilberto?"

Reed looked up, the screen was displaying the hot news of the day.

"Public morals are getting worse day by day. A young man fainted and fell to the ground. A beauty that was passing by groped his entire body, molesting him in various ways."

"It's Gilberto."

Seeing the beautiful woman in the video, a part of Reed's memory was triggered.

Wasn’t that the woman who stole a man’s phone at the airport?

Thief, female hooligan, what other identities did she have?

Approaching Gilberto Thomas... What was her purpose?

Reed pondered for a moment and ordered, "Investigate what happened and find out how Gilberto is doing now. Investigate that woman's background while you're at it!"

"Yes sir!"

Luca received the order and did not dare to be careless. He hastily walked out of the president's office and went down to the sixth floor, when he ran into a hurrying figure.

"Sorry, sorry, I am in a rush for an interview!"

The woman apologized incessantly. When she raised her head, Luca caught a clear glimpse of her beautiful face and froze.

Wasn’t this… the woman who had just disrespected the son of the Thomas family? Was it a fluke that she had turned up in Thomas Co. for an interview?

Luca came to his senses and quickly sent a message to report to Reed, "Mr. Thomas, the woman who harassed Mr. Gilberto has appeared. She came to Thomas Co. for an interview!"

"Bring her to my office!"

Leah had missed the appointment time with the interviewer. And sadly thought that she had missed her chance. Unexpectedly, a young man who looked like an elite welcomed her into the president's office.

As soon as she entered the room, she was dazzled by the unusually large office. The president's office was situated on the top floor of the skyscraper. In front of her was a ginormous floor-to-ceiling window, revealing the clear blue sky outside the window. It made her feel like she was part of the sky.

The simple black, white and gray color theme exuded the competence and collectedness of the office’s owner.

Leah suddenly felt a deep gaze on her, scrutinizing her from top to bottom.

She turned to the source of the gaze and was instantly stunned.

The man sat in front of the spacious desk. Fingers with prominent joints tapped on the desk at a steady pace. His gaze was bottomless like he was planning something. His face was devilishly handsome, with beautiful eyes, a straight nose, and pale lips. His fair skin had an otherworldly glow, making everything around him dull and lackluster.

The inherent prestige and oppressive aura that emanated from his body made it suffocating to be there. Leah also felt an inexplicable sense of familiarity.

She smelled a faint scent of sandalwood.

"Ms. Carter, please take a seat."

A voice as cold as jade was heard. Leah came to her senses and sat opposite the man with her back straight, her posture was confident but not arrogant.

The man in front of her looked like Thomas Co.'s president, Reed Thomas.

A business tycoon in New York, the subject of admiration of almost all heiresses. It seemed that the rumors were true. Mr. Thomas could be regarded as top-notch in terms of appearances alone.

Reed tapped the table lightly and said calmly, "Ms. Carter, I heard that you are applying for the position of brand designer for Thomas Co.’s perfume line. How much do you know about our company, Ms. Carter?"

Leah had already made full preparations before going for the interview, so she was very familiar with Thomas Co.'s brand concept. Presented with a topic she could harp on, at that moment, she answered calmly and convincingly. Any ordinary person would definitely be impressed.

However, Reed just snorted coldly, "Ms. Carter, do you know the requirements that Thomas Co. has for our employees?"

"What are they?"

"Abilities and education background are put last. Thomas Co. prioritizes our staff’s good character. The company won't hire a person who steals and acts indecently!"

"In short, you are not qualified to join Thomas Co.!"

The professional smile on Leah's face froze.

Her expression grew solemn with a bit of anger, "Mr. Thomas, if I remember correctly, this is our first time meeting. What right do you have to make such a judgment? Do you know me well?"

Reed said sarcastically, "Ms. Carter, I don't need to repeat the things that you’ve done, do I?"

What had she done to provoke the president of Thomas Co.?!

Leah was on the brink of exploding from fury. She did not understand where Reed's hostility came from.

She never thought about applying for a job. If Jackson hadn't strongly recommended it to her, she wouldn't have come at all!

If she was not welcomed here, there were better places to be!

Leah stood up suddenly. Since Reed didn't respect her, she didn't need to be polite, "Mr. Thomas, if you are not satisfied with me, you can just say it directly. You don't need to insult me like this! We have never met before. Your accusations are baseless. I didn't expect the famous president of Thomas Co. to be such a narrow-minded person. Consider me enlightened today!"

"There are other companies in New York aside from Thomas Co. Since, I don’t match up to Thomas Co., then I bid you goodbye!"

Hearing this, Luca was shocked. Did this woman know what she's saying?

After offending Mr. Thomas, she might not be able to even stay in New York anymore!

There has never been anyone who dared to be so insulting to Reed!

Reed was stupefied and then said in a cold voice, "If Thomas Co. doesn't want you, do you think other companies would dare to hire you?"

This was a full-on threat!

Leah scoffed in anger, "Do you think I'm afraid of you? Reed, we'll see! Karma comes around. I, Leah Carter, only hope that you won't be asking favors from me one day, or I'll definitely return the humiliation that I received today to you a hundred times worse!"

Leah took her bag, pushed the door open, and strode out angrily.

No doubt about it, Reed was a lunatic!

After she left, Luca cautiously said, "Mr. Thomas, do you want me to deal with...?"

"There's no need."

Reed snorted. She was just a woman, she would not be able to cause any trouble.

"Twist has yet to accept our commission, but I heard that there’s going to be an auction for the formula for the Elixir of Youth in New York soon. It may be beneficial for Mr. George's illness. Shall we go and have a look?"

Reed's eyes grew dark. He could not find Doctor Y at the moment, so he could only seek other ways to extend his grandfather's life.

He hoped that his grandfather could hold on for a few more days.

"Let's check it out tonight."

Leah returned to the apartment brimming with anger. She ranted while walking, "I am so angry. That Reed... He’d better hope I never find any dirt on him. Otherwise, I will never let him go!"

She opened the door of the apartment and was met with a passionate embrace. The figure hugged her tightly.

"Leah, you're finally back!"

Angie Chavez was very excited and Leah was squeezed to the point of coughing, "Ahem, Angie, I haven't seen you for six years and you want to murder me when I just came back to New York!"

Angie had refreshingly short hair and high spirits. She said in a carefree manner, "What are you saying? It's because you haven't come back for such a long time. I missed you so much that I couldn't control myself!"

Frankly, Leah was quite touched, she looked at the only best friend she had.

When she left New York, Chloe had sent people to make things difficult for her. If it wasn't for Angie's help, things wouldn't have gone so smoothly.

The reunion of old friends naturally meant that they had a lot to say. The two reminisced about the old days. Soon, however, Angie asked, "Jackson told me that you went to Thomas Co. for an interview. How did it go?"

When the topic came up, Leah was infuriated right away.

"Don’t mention it, Reed Thomas is insane!"

When Leah recalled Reed's handsome face, she wanted to beat him up so badly. She couldn't help but say heatedly, "I don't know how he became the president of Thomas Co. with that IQ of his. If any girl marries him, she’s destined for a lifetime of misfortune!"

After Leah told Angie about her experience at Thomas Co. Angie was taken aback, "No way! I heard that Reed is not only rich and capable but also very dashing. He is the ideal lover of girls all over New York. How did he turn out to be so bad?"

"He only has good-for-nothing looks. He may be good-looking but he is a useless fool!"

Leah gnashed her teeth and said, "If I don't take revenge, I won’t be called Leah Carter anymore."

Jackson heard everything and suddenly piped up, "Mommy, did Reed bully you?"

Leah hugged her son and rubbed his fluffy little head. Only then did she feel the anger in her heart subside greatly.

"That's right."

Jackson immediately said, "Mommy, don’t be angry. I'll teach him a lesson for you!"

The little boy looked so indignant as he began to type on the computer in his hand.

This d*mn Daddy, how could he treat Mommy like this!

Although Leah had always told him that his Daddy had already turned to ashes, how could someone as smart as Jackson easily believe what Leah said?

Making use of the hacker organization's interpersonal connections and resources, he finally found out that his Daddy was the president of Thomas Co., Reed Thomas!
