You obeyed Mr. Ryan like a good child and he just warned you about being careful and there were endless times he asked of the reason of your anger but you didn't tell anything.

You just shrugged it off saying, "I'll tell at the right time." Which was definitely never.

But after realising the wound you had, knowing it was bad, it hurt so much now, and the bandages were wrapped as if it's a present wrapped beautifully in white paper.

When you went home, your parents bombarded you with questions about every detail Mr. Ryan told them. Honestly you were quite upset at your uncle, you didn't want to share anything right now. You just delayed the thing and went to your room.

Your past just kept replaying in your head, you didn't know why, but you had tears in your eyes which you instantly wiped. It had always been the same for you, keep on suffocating yourself, suppressing your feelings, emotions, showing the fake perfection to the world.

The next day, you somehow went to Laurel's literally ignoring your parents because if you didn't, they'd never let you go. You didn't want the candidates to be held for too long so you just drove off.

As soon as you entered the building, you gained concerned looks from your employees, they did care for you because you weren't some mean boss.
And here goes Mr. Ryan coming to you inorder to scold you but you already signalled him to stop.

"Uncle, I did let you cancel the interview yesterday but not today, it would be so unprofessional from our side to keep delaying."
And you went to your cabin after saying, "Do send the candidates in my office by 9:00 am."

You went and sat in your cabin when you noticed that your phone was still there shattered, you went there with the least hope that something would be left of that gadget. But to your pleasent and unpleasant surprise it was alright. The unpleasant thing was that it had a message from that piece of shit again.

Baby, please forgive me and I promise I'll give you everything ❤️

You were about to throw that phone again but stopped, you can't be angry over that one guy and ruin everything, you calmed yourself down and sat on the chair.

9:00 AM

There were five candidates for the interview and they were called one by one. Three of the four candidates interviewed yet didn't seem to impress you. The fourth one, however; was alright. Ahn Jong Suk was the only one who seemed competent yet.

Then came the turn of the 5th candidate
'Jeon Jungkook'.

"Come in," you chanted as the guy entered.

Y/N'S POV

As I took a good look at the guy, I really did say in mind that he's so handsome, not like a simp or anything but just an observation, that you notice someone who looks ethereal. But the way he walked in was in itself impressive, he had the looks of a professional in his outfit and his expression was neither too chirpy nor too grim.

Y/N'S POV ends

"Take a seat," you said as he sat down after bowing.

JUNGKOOK'S POV

As soon as I entered I noticed Kim Y/n sitting on her chair, her demeanor seemed authoritative yet welcoming. And she was one hell of a good looking woman, not like I'm being a simp, but her looks are definitely good enough to be noticed.

JUNGKOOK'S POV ends

"Mr. Jeon Jungkook, am I right?" you asked beginning the interview.

"Yes Ms. Kim," he responded and you looked up a little startled, he didn't call you ma'am like all the other interviewees did. You allowed your employees to call you Ms. Y/n or Ms. Kim but he was giving an interview and it was quite an unusual occurance for interviewees to call you like that.

"So Mr. Jeon, you worked in the Elver's previously as the HOD of software development department, am I right?" you asked as you checked his resumé.

"Precisely," he made a little hand gesture accompanying the lone word.

"You have an experience of 3 years but you've worked in different positions, the highest being the HOD. So, what makes you shift to being a Secretary? And are you prepared to take this task?" you asked him carefully observing his every movement.

"I like to try out new things but I also make sure I give my best to them, so they aren't just messed up. I think I'm ready for taking up this new experience as well," his eyes were affixed on you, maintaining eye contact. And you could notice that he was observing your gestures too. That impressed you.

"That's great. Now, if you have to leave Seoul and go to different cities or countries would you be able to without excuses? Because being a Secretary demands this," you asked slightly raising an eyebrow.

"Without fail Ms. Kim. I have done that quite some time previously," he was confident, his voice firm yet pleasant.

"Good," you simply nodded.

"Will you give your best here and focus on working and not other things?" you asked as all your previous secretaries didn't last long.

"I'll make sure of that," he slightly tilted his head, quite unsure why you'd ask that.

"Okay you may leave. The results will be announced in some time," you commanded.

"But the results were supposed to be told on call to the selected one personally as I was informed," he spoke a little confused, his eyes never leaving yours. He was carefully observing you for some reason.

"It's changed now, the earlier the better," you gave him a small smile.

He bowed to you before leaving and then you called Mr. Ryan inside.

"Mr. Ryan, Jeon Jungkook is selected for the position," you told him as he gave a slightly puzzled expression.

"But why did you decide so quickly?" he asked as you replied, "The decision was to be made, be it now or much later and I must say he's given the best interview from all the ones I've conducted so he's in for sure."

"As you say," Mr. Ryan responded before going out to call Jungkook back in.

"May I come in?" Jungkook asked alongside Mr. Ryan .

"Yes," you replied as the two came and sat infront of you.

"Congratulations Mr. Jeon, you've landed the job," you said as you extended your hand for a handshake which he took with both his hands and respectfully shook it.

"Thank you Ms. Kim," he smiled.

"So let's talk about your work and your salary," you spoke earning a nod from both the males.

"Your major task would be to assist and follow me in meetings be it here or overseas. There will be project heads for presentations but you have the job of talking your way to the clients. As I have heard about your passion and your skill in software designing and development, I'd be glad to say you can still work for those things and according to the observations you'll be given the projects. Is it fine with you?" you asked.

"I'd be grateful for that," Jungkook responded while Mr. Ryan was doing the observant task here.

"700 k dollars per annum would be the salary if you aren't already informed about that," you spoke as Mr. Ryan gave you a questioning look while you just assured him.

"I am well informed about that, thank you," Jungkook had by now observed your cabin entirely, sneakily. If it wasn't for another observant person like you, this would easily go unnoticed.

"That's all for now, come to work from tomorrow. I come at 8:00 am, you should be here before me, I don't care if you just reached at 7:59 but be here before me," you commanded and he nodded while saying, "I'll make sure of that."

"You may leave," you said to Jungkook as he bowed to you and Mr. Ryan before leaving.

Thanks for reading 💙💜❤️
(PS : I am of course not that well versed with how interviews practically go so it might have been quite weird.)
