Chapter 47 Dig Her Own Grave
Armand’s harsh words had completely stumped Queenie. Her face was ashen.
Furthermore, there were so many interviewees staring at them that she felt even more uncomfortable.
Armand turned to the man who had been scalded earlier. “Pierre, this interviewee had accidentally
spilled hot water on you, but it is considered an instance of bad behavior. Go to the hospital and get a
report on your injury. The interviewee will be fully responsible for your medical bills.”
“Yes, sir.”
With that, Armand’s cold gaze fell onto Queenie once again. “If you feel that this is unfair, you may
speak to my lawyer.”
Queenie did not expect that the CEO of Central Group would be this ruthless toward an interviewee.
However, she could only force a smile and obey him. “You’re right, Mr. Faulkner. I will take care of the
medical bills.”
Armand no longer paid attention to her and turned to leave with Pierre following behind him. His gaze
briefly swept over Genevieve.
Genevieve noticed that and quickly backed away from him as he brushed past her. “Goodbye, Mr.
Faulkner.”
When Armand heard her words, he stopped in his tracks and looked at her. “Why did you submit the
test in ten minutes?”
Genevieve could feel even more eyes on her after the man talked.
Is he doing this on purpose?
The corners of her lips twitched slightly. Biting the bullet, she replied, “I handed it in because I had
already finished the test.”
Seeing that Armand was not giving Genevieve any special treatment either, Queenie got brave again. “I
heard that ever since Central Group’s founding, the translation department’s written test would take at
least twenty-five minutes to complete. There’s simply not enough time to think of and write the answers
to more than ten questions within ten minutes.”
Genevieve was rendered speechless.
Is it wrong to hand in a test early these days?
As Armand was just asking a casual question, he hummed in response after hearing Genevieve’s
answer and left without looking back. Pierre stuck close behind as they exited the cafeteria.
Having been completely ignored, Queenie stood there in shock, biting her lip awkwardly.
Genevieve scoffed inwardly when she saw Queenie’s expression. She walked up to Queenie and said,
“Why don’t we make a bet, Queenie?”
“I don’t want to make a bet with you!”
Queenie had been repeatedly humiliated in front of a large crowd and felt utterly embarrassed.
Unwilling to continue speaking with Genevieve, she spun on her heel and walked away.
Genevieve chuckled lightly. “Do you not want to, or are you just afraid?”
When Queenie stopped in her tracks and turned her head to look at Genevieve, the latter went on,
“Don’t you think I’m unworthy of even being interviewed by Central Group? So why don’t we do this? If
my overall score puts me in the first place and Central Group hires me, you will have to dance in front
of the restaurant across the road from the company.”
Queenie scoffed angrily at her boastful words. “You think too highly of yourself, Genevieve!”
She was aware that many of the interviewees present were applying for a position in the translation
department. Plus, she even heard that there was an interviewee who was the top graduate in his
school from a famous university in Frosa.
Queenie had seen the pleased look on the interviewer’s face after the top graduate handed in his Upstodatee from Novel(D)ra/m/a.O(r)g
written test.
On the other hand, the interviewer frowned when Genevieve submitted her test after ten minutes.
Therefore, Queenie could not understand what made Genevieve so confident that she could come out
on top.
“I just have a lot of confidence in my abilities, that’s all.” Suddenly, Genevieve gazed at Queenie in
surprise. “Don’t tell me that you have none in yours?”
Her sarcastic yet innocent tone caused Queenie to burn with rage.
However, she had learned her lesson. This time, she took a deep breath and did not rashly accept
Genevieve’s challenge. “Yeah, you’re right. I don’t think I can take the first place, so this bet is unfair!
Therefore, why should I accept this bet with you?”
“What would make it fair, then?”
Hostility flashed across Queenie’s eyes but was gone in the next instant. “If your total results put you in
the first place, I will dance in front of the restaurant in a bikini. If someone else is in the first place, it will
be your loss!”
Hearing that, everyone’s interest was piqued.
Dancing in front of a restaurant was no big deal. However, if Queenie were to do it in a bikini, it would
spice things up a lot more.
Patrick suddenly approached and started complaining loudly, “Are you insane? How is that fair? You
have no chance of achieving first place, so why should Genev make this bet with you? She even has to
dance in a bikini if she loses!”
Furious, he turned to say to Genevieve, “Let’s go, Genev. We shouldn’t bother betting on anything with
her!”
Queenie quickly ran in front of them and blocked their path. “Aren’t you confident that you can gain the
first place, Genevieve? What’s wrong? Are you scared?”
