Trying to look braver than she felt, she finallly managed a retort.

“Oh, Rachel, don’t be so smug! So what if you are now an employee of the Sullivan Group? You may get yourself in, but it is still in my power to kick you out with a snap of my fingers.”
Rachel rolled her eyes and chuckled.
Alice’s smile was wiped clean off her face, as she couldn’t help but feel a sense of dread at her opponent’s carefree attitude. Rachel had changed so much that Alice didn’t know what she may try next.
Rachel nodded to the interviewers, ignoring Alice altogetgher, and left the Sullivan Group’s building.
Meanwhile, in a luxurious penthouse suite, Ivan hung up the phone and walked into the study with a serious expression on his usually expressionless face.
Seeing that look, Victor’s forehead creased.
“What’s the matter?”
“Mr. Sullivan, I just received the results from Miss Bennet’s interview.” Ivan paused for a while as if he didn’t know how to break the news.
“Rachel’s interview?” Victor snorted, “I am pretty sure that I know already. It must be a disaster.”
Ivan looked a bit apprehensive as he started to mutter something.
“But…”
“Come on, Ivan. One might think that you are actually concerned about Rachel,” Victor said, raising his eyes to look searchingly at Ivan.
“You are right, Mr. Sullivan. I crossed a line there. My apologies,”

Ivan answered and lowered his eyes to the floor.
Victor didn’t look convinced, but still he went on like nothing had happened.
“Did you book my airplane ticket for tomorrow?”
“Yes, sir,” Ivan replied, still looking a little chastised.
Around the same time, in the Bennet family’s house back in Apliaria, the atmosphere was merry.
“Cheers!” Andy cried as he stood up and clinked glasses with Abby.
Still sitting on her chair, Rachel simply raised her glass. She didn’t feel as excited as her company did.
Andy and Abby, already used to Rachel’s lack of enthusiasm for almost everything, simply raised their glasses at her and kept clinking their own.
“What a pity that our toast tonight must be with just water, Miss Bennet! But since you have to go to the Sullivan Group and report for duty tomorrow, there will be no wine today. Anyway, I’d like to congratulate you! By passing that interview, you saved the Bennet Group from ruin!” Andy paused and downed all the water in his glass.
“Oh, Miss Bennet. You did absolutely wonderfully! Bravo!” Abby said and drank up her water smiling broadly.
Rachel looked fondly at both of them.
