?Chapter 1356:
Sylvie’s tone slipped into desperation as she looked Jordy in the eye. “I’m begging you. For old times’ sake.”
“No,” Jordy replied without hesitation. “Your family isn’t worth a dime anymore. I’d be burning money if I threw it your way. Try your luck elsewhere.”
Jordy was well aware that the Higgins family had crossed the Harper family. Until they got the Harpers’ forgiveness, any chance of aeback was a pipe dream.
ncing aside, he spotted Brenna surrounded by her friends. He told Sylvie tly, “If you really want another shot, you’ll have to beg Brenna for it.”
“I won’t do that!” Sylvie shot back, her eyes shining with tears as she looked at Jordy.
Jordy didn’t flinch. Sentiment meant nothing to him anymore; if it didn’t turn a profit, he wasn’t interested.
He stood up and walked over to Brenna’s table. “Well, isn’t this a surprise. Didn’t expect to see you here.”
Brenna motioned toward an empty chair. “There’s room if you want to eat with us.”
“Thanks, but my girlfriend’s waiting.” Jordy looked at Libby and Finley; their sharp suits and alert posture made it clear they were on duty as bodyguards. Then, he looked at Lilith. He found her familiar, then remembered she was Ernst’s fiancée.
He offered her a polite smile. “You must be Miss Richardson. I’m Jordy Barton, Brenna’s ex-boyfriend.”
Lilith nced at Brenna, who gave a nod of confirmation. She got up to greet Jordy with a handshake. “Nice to meet you.”<fn5de1> Find the newest release on FindN0vel</fn5de1>
Jordy turned back to Brenna. “By the way, I heard Hector’s headed to Vand soon. He’s eyeing investments in drone tech. Brenna, you might want to keep this on your radar. It could be a big opportunity for Mr. Mitchell.”

This was important news.
“I appreciate the tip. I’ll keep an eye on it,” Brenna replied, sensing Jordy’s goodwill.
All the while, Sylvie watched their interaction with growing confusion. Jordy used to have nothing but contempt for Brenna, and he couldn’t stand her. How had that changedpletely? Was it really just because Brenna was a member of the powerful Harper family?
It struck her as unfair. Why did things always seem to work out in Brenna’s favor?
BH Animation announced openings for concept artists, algorithm engineers, and several other positions on multiple recruitment sites, quickly drawing interest from people in the field. With the promise of attractive sry packages, thepany’s HR inbox was soon overflowing with applications.
The human resources division had only five staff members, who spent long days andte nights sorting through the submissions to find the most qualified. After two weeks, they narrowed the pool down to nearly three thousand candidates for interviews.
On the fifty-seventh floor, 250 workstations had been arranged, each fully equipped. Thepany had even managed to secure a significant entertainment project,rgely through Dalton’s support.
Thiago and the HR staff worked tirelessly for over a week before finally emailing every candidate who made the list.
Hank also joined in, lending a hand with reviewing applications and sending out interview notices. As soon as the holiday break ended, thepanyunched interview sessions.
The HR department split into three pairs to handle the workload, with Thiago stepping in to help. From the hallway, Hank called, “Number 1998, Sylvie Higgins.”
Sylvie slipped herpact mirror back into her purse and carried her resume into Interview Room 3. Just before Christmas, the Higgins Group had copsed into bankruptcy, leaving her searching for work. Brenna’s firm promised excellent pay, and since her major aligned with the role, she had submitted her resume.
Still, her years at the Higgins Group had been spent coasting along with little effort, leaving her without much practical experience. To improve her chances, Sylvie had fabricated her employment history on her resume. The HR staff had failed to spot the false information.
