Zayla was perplexed. Wouldn’t hiring Clara equate to courting trouble?
Maeve smiled and said, “Her internship period is less than a month. If I don’t take her in, someone else
will. It’s better to keep her under my watch. With her abilities, she can’t stir up much trouble.”
“Got it, Ms. Scott.”
Maeve hung up the phone. She was genuinely curious to see how far Clara could get on her own merit.
That afternoon, Clara received an interview notice from one of the companies under Mirage Group. She dressed meticulously and walked into the company in high heels.
The interviewer glanced at her resume and said, “I see you’re a graduate student from Amenam University?
Clara, feeling proud, replied, “Yes.”
“You’re so young. That’s impressive.”
The interviewer gave a nod of approval, boosting Clara’s confidence even more. She believed she had
earned her admission at Amenam University and her graduate position through hard work.
The interviewer continued, “We do have an internship position, but it’s not for the deputy manager role.”
“Not a deputy manager?” Clara frowned.
Clara had anticipated it wouldn’t be easy to secure that position, so she said, “My minimum requirement

“Oh no, you’ve got it wrong,” the interviewer interrupted
“Even though you graduated from Amenam University, we have high standards for our interns. Our recent hires have studied abroad and earned master’s degrees and various international awards. Do you have
any such awards to share with us?”
Clara’s smile froze. She never had the money to study abroad and had focused solely on her studies. She barely participated in extracurricular activities, let alone won international awards.
According to Sergio’s previous promises, she would have been abroad by now, but she stayed at Amenam University to keep an eye on him for fear that Maeve might steal him away.
Seeing Clara’s hesitation, the interviewer said, “It seems you haven’t studied abroad or won any
International awards. That’s fine. We still value talent. How is your proficiency in Arentian?“\
Proud of her skills, Clara responded, “I scored high on the advanced Arentian test.
“And your Bravok score?”
“Or TEOC?”

Clara was at a loss for words. She had planned to take these language tests but had been too occupied with staying close to Sergio to prepare for it properly.
The interviewer continued, “How about your spoken Arentian?”
“My spoken Arentian-”
Clara was about to demonstrate her speaking skills when a female employee walked in, speaking fluently. She spoke Arentian with such a perfect accent that Clara assumed she was a native.
The interviewer joined that conversation the next moment, speaking rapidly and fluently, using professional jargon that Clara struggled to understand.
After the employee left, the interviewer smiled at Clara and asked, “So, Ms. Stewart, how is your spoken Arentian?”
Clara, nervously clenching her fists, said, “I studied finance. I can communicate normally with foreigners.”
“Alright, considering everything, we can offer you a one–month internship. It will be as an intern employee with a salary of five hundred dollars. You can think about it.”
Clara’s expression turned grim. “Five hundred dollars?
