Flawless and Flirtatious (Genevieve and Armand)

Chapter 45

When Genevieve got out of the interview hall, she received a text from Patrick on WhatsApp: Mrs. Faulkner, have you finished your interview? I am in Category A of the cafeteria on the twenty–second floor

She got a temporary employee badge and took the elevator to the restaurant.

Central Group had a total of fifty–three floors, and the twenty–second floor was the cafeteria which was divided into four areas. Central Group employees, including the interviewees, all dined there.

When Genevieve arrived at Category A of the cafeteria, she saw someone conversing with Patrick by the door

Patrick‘s skin was a little tanned, but he had thick brows, big eyes, and prominent facial features. His thin and slender frame was complemented by a suit that made him look like a business elite.

In front of him stood an attractive and mature woman who appeared amused by what he said. She covered her lips numerous times to giggle, and she even took out her phone to ask for his phone number.

Genevieve was rendered speechless immediately. She then walked up to them quickly and called out, “Patrick.”

Seeing that Genevieve had arrived, Patrick stood up straight immediately and smiled, showing his white teeth. “Oh. Mrs. Fa–”

Before he could greet her, Genevieve shot him a warning look.

Even though Patrick wasn‘t much of a bright person, he understood what she meant instantly. He paused and changed his words, saying, “Genev, this is Jenny Griffin from the translation department.”

Jenny Griffin didn‘t appear to be interested in entertainment news, so she didn‘t recognize Genevieve. She merely smiled and said, “Your sister is stunning. Don‘t worry. I‘m in charge of invigilating the test later in the afternoon. I‘ll go easy on you.”

“Thank you, Ms. Griffin! You‘re gorgeous and kind. I‘ll treat you to lunch tomorrow, so don‘t you reject me!” Patrick grinned from ear to ear.

Flattered, Jenny‘s smile widened as she quickly left with a cup of coffee in her hand,

“Since when am I your sister? Also, does your brother know that you have such flirting skills?” Genevieve shot Patrick a cold look.

“Didn‘t you mention there are a couple of phases in the translation department interview? It sounds tough, so in order for you to pass the test, I had no choice but to flirt with Ms. Griffin for your sake. After all, I am an attractive man,” said Patrick as he shrugged and walked into the cafeteria with Genevieve.

Genevieve chuckled. “Oh, I see. Should I thank you?”

“Why of course! I am way better than Armand. Armand, as the CEO of Central Group, didn‘t even bother to pull some strings for his wife,” said Patrick as he raised his brow proudly.

Looking at the diners around them, Genevieve was worried that someone would eavesdrop on their conversation. Thus, she lightly kicked Patrick on the foot.

Genevieve assumed that Patrick was working in Central Group without a set schedule and only visited the company on occasion, but it turned out that he was also there for an interview.

“My brother told me to never leave your side.”

“I don‘t think there‘s a need for that. There are surveillance cameras on every floor. What could possibly happen to me in the company?” Genevieve was nonplussed.

Patrick thought of the accident that day. You can never be sure.

Nonetheless, he didn‘t say his worries out loud. Instead, he complained, “I don‘t mind coming to work. It‘s just that I‘m so experienced in information technology and whatnot, and my capabilities are more than enough for me to become a technical supervisor, but I still have to come here and be interviewed by some rookies. It‘s ridiculous.”

Patrick complained once more while they were ordering their food. “Wow, what kind of lunch is this? Everything is so bland! Genev, let‘s go and have seafood and beer tonight!”

“I don‘t think I can go have seafood and beer for these few days,” replied Genevieve.

She had to get her blood tested at the hospital at night, and she was not allowed to eat high cholesterol food for several days thereafter.

“Why? Are you seeing someone else?” Patrick asked in dismay, acting as if he was abandoned.

Genevieve was once again rendered speechless.

Coincidentally, Queenie was also there to have lunch with a few of her friends.

When they were queueing, Queenie noticed that Genevieve was interacting intimately with a man beside her, and she overheard the last few words Patrick uttered. At that moment, she believed she knew why Genevieve came for the interview.

With a sneer, Queenie said, “Earlier in the morning, I couldn‘t wrap my head around why you‘re here when you don‘t know anything. Now it turns out that you‘re here to seduce rich men.”

Genevieve turned around and gave Queenie an icy look upon hearing that. Belongs to (N)ôvel/Drama.Org.

Being aware that she was in a cafeteria, Genevieve remained silent.

However, Patrick was enraged. Immediately, he roared back, “Did you just fall into a pile of sh*t in the morning? Is that why your mouth smells so bad?”

“You! I am doing you a favor by exposing her true colors!” Queenie‘s face turned pale in a split second.

“Even though Genev is cute and pretty, do you have to be that jealous? Ah, it‘s okay, I understand. After all, you‘re so ugly, and I doubt any plastic surgeon would be able to do anything to save your face. Thus, you‘re resentful,” Patrick continued to chastise her.

As he scrutinized her from head to toe, his gaze became increasingly disdainful. “Even if I was a rich fish, I wouldn‘t want to be fished by people like you! I‘d vomit!”
