Chapter 198: Waiting for Her to Beg Him

“Should we send someone to inform them?” Richard asked again.

“No need,” Frederick didn’t even raise his head.

Seeing this, Richard responded casually, said nothing, and went downstairs.

At eight o’clock in the evening, as Frederick returned home, Claire was lying in the room, constantly flipping through videos and information on her mobile phone, trying to find other opportunities to join the Hiokeeh Group. Even if she was rejected today, she still wanted to join the Hiokeeh Group. When it came to headhunting, no company could compare to the Hiokeeh Group. Traditional headhunting companies only provide employees to large companies, from small supervisors to company directors, CEOs, etc. Only the Hiokeeh Group had made the company a globally renowned headhunter and had never opened branches in other countries. But even so, companies in various industries around the world were still scrambling to grab talent.

Some people said that behind the Hiokeeh Group were government personnel from the United International Organization. Some people also said that the Hiokech Group was the world’s largest intelligence organization, and its ostensible headhunting company was just a cover-up. Some people also said that the leader of the Hiokeeh Group was the leader of the world’s largest terrorist organization, and so on… All kinds of things had been said over the years. In short, it could be summed up in two words: Powerful! Mysterious! No one had ever met the Hiokeeh Group’s real boss.

As Claire was busy reviewing the information, the door suddenly rang. “Ms. Prescott,” it was Bailey who knocked on the door. “What’s wrong, Bailey?” As Claire opened the door, she saw Bailey carrying delicious meals.

“Ms. Prescott, people need to eat food. If you don’t eat for a meal, you will be hungry. You can’t not eat! What’s wrong with you? Did the interview today not go well?” Bailey came in, put down the food, and asked.

“Well, it’s normal that it’s hard to get into a popular company,” Claire responded casually.

She wasn’t in such a bad mood that she couldn’t eat. She just came back and immersed herself in her mobile phone, looking at the interview materials of the Hiokech Group, and didn’t pay attention to anything else.

Bailey put down the plate and said, “Ms. Prescott, you don’t have to go through such a hard interview. Just tell General Hawthorne. Once he informs them, you will be in in a few minutes.”

Hearing what Bailey said, Claire was indeed moved. However, she didn’t think Frederick would help her. “No, I’ll try again myself,” Claire paused and answered. Frederick hated her so much, so how could he help her, let alone help her join a group like the Hiokech Group?

Outside the door, he listened to the conversation between Bailey and Claire. As Bailey came out with the tray, he saw Frederick and said nervously, “General Hawthorne, I…”

“I heard it. Get down!” Frederick turned around and went back to the room. She did want to rely on herself even if he gave her a chance, right?

In the next few days, she had been carefully preparing for the interview with the Hiokeeh Group. But for several days, there was no result. In the past, her resume could at least be passed, but now, even her resume could not be passed. Frederick knew all of the Hiokeeh Group’s movements and the resume that Claire had submitted. Every day, he watched her with her head hanging down, looking listless. Therefore, he was in a good mood and was just waiting for Claire to take the initiative to ask him for help. However, he waited day after day, and soon, a week passed, but Claire still didn’t come to beg him.

Richard also noticed that Frederick was unhappy, so he followed Frederick back home that day. As he was getting the documents, he saw Claire and couldn’t help asking, “Ms. Prescott, I heard that you have been busy with the interview at the Hiokeeh Group recently.”

“Yeah.” Claire nodded.

“Is it going well?” Richard asked.

“It’s not going very smoothly, but it’s not easy to get into the Hiokeeh Group. Not to mention that I don’t have a good education. It’s okay, and I’ll take my time.” She knew very well where her shortcomings were.

Richard tried to remind her, “Actually, you can also go and tell General Hawthorne. He…”

At this moment, Claire’s cell phone suddenly rang. “Wait a moment.” She took out her cell phone and quickly answered it, fearing that she would miss the call from the Hiokech Group.

“Hello, are you Ms. Prescott?”

“Yes, I am. May I ask who you are?” The official tone made her suddenly excited.

“I’m from the Hiokeeh Group. Our manager is looking for an assistant. He has selected several candidates, including you. Now, the situation is like this. You need to compete with these interviewees for the same assistant position for a period of one month. During this period, the manager will score you, and those with the highest scores will be able to stay. Of course, Ms. Prescott, you can refuse if you don’t want to participate.” The person on the other end of the phone was polite and courteous and explained the matter to Claire.

“Yes, of course, I am. I am very grateful that the Hiokeeh Group gives me this opportunity, and I will report there tomorrow.” Claire was just worrying about how to get into the Hiokeeh Group, and now, she felt it was fortunate.

Frederick came down from upstairs with documents in his hand and heard Claire’s call. “The Hiokeeh Group’s offer?” His face darkened in an instant. He clearly heard what Claire said just now, and it was the Hiokeeh Group.
