She couldn't believe she was about to interview for a design position at one of the most prestigious companies in the city.

She couldn't deny the strange pull she felt towards him, despite their opposing views on love and life.

Entering the interview room, Maya found herself face to face with Alex once again. His expression was unreadable as he studied her carefully, making Maya squirm under his intense scrutiny.

Alex: [smirking] Maya Williams. I must say, I'm surprised to see you here.
Maya: [forcing a smile] Likewise, Mr. Joseph. Thank you for considering me for the position.
Alex: [leaning back in his chair] Let's cut to the chase, shall we? Why do you think you're qualified for this job?
Maya: [straightening her posture] Well, I believe my passion for design, combined with my creativity and attention to detail, make me a strong candidate for the role. I've also had experience working on similar projects in the past, which I believe would be valuable to your company.
Alex: [nodding thoughtfully] Interesting. And how do you handle working under pressure?
Maya: [meeting his gaze squarely] I thrive under pressure, Mr. Joseph. I believe it pushes me to perform at my best and brings out my creative instincts.
Alex: [raising an eyebrow] I see. Well, Maya, you certainly seem to have the right attitude. Consider yourself hired!
Maya: [eyes widening in shock] Really? Just like that?
Alex: [smirking] Just like that. Welcome to AURORA Enterprises, Maya.

[As Maya left the interview room, her mind was reeling with disbelief. She had expected the interview to be challenging, but Alex's sudden decision to hire her caught her completely off guard. Still, she couldn't suppress the surge of excitement coursing through her veins.]
