But it didn’t matter what the Johnson family thought; Alice had her own things to do.
The next morning, Alice dressed neatly and appeared at Luminary Holdings Ltd.
The receptionist recognized her and immediately led her to Dwayne’s office.
Alice greeted politely, Mr. Larson, long time no see p>
‘Ms. Baker, it really has been a long time. I heard the past two months have been tough for you?’ Dwayne extended his hand. “Have
a seat, try some of my tea.
“Thank you, I wont be polite then. Alice sat down respectfully, quietly watching Dwayne make tea.
“Alright, give it a try?” Dwayne, though only in his thirties, was very health-conscious. The last time Alice was in his office, she
noticed he preferred tea.
Alice took a sip. It’s perfect; Mr. Larson, you’ve gone to great expense p>
Dwayne raised an eyebrow slightly. “You know how to appreciate tea p>
“A little. Alice smiled. She had learned to appreciate wine and tea from Michael.
Given her family background, it was already good enough to survive, let alone have the leisure for such things.
It was only after becoming Michael’s secretary that she started learning about wine and tea. Now, she could identify most high-end
teas on the market with just a taste.
She lowered her eyes; why was she thinking about Michael again?
They were just a transactional relationship, nothing worth reminiscing about.
“Ms. Baker, you said you wanted to work here. With your abilities, you could probably go to a better company. Has no one hired you in the past few months?” Dwayne’s voice was calm, without any fluctuations.
Alice smiled at him. “That’s why I wanted to ask if it’s too late for me to join your company now p>
Everyone in the same circle knew certain things without needing to spell them out.
She believed Dwayne was aware of some things.
Even if Michael hadn’t mentioned blacklisting her to Dwayne, Dwayne should have heard something.
Dwayne chuckled, “Of course, it’s not too late p>

Alice felt a surge of joy. “When can we start the interview p>
Interview? Dwayne laughed out loud You’re Alice, the senior secretary of the Johnson Group for ten years. With that resume, do
you still need an interview? You can start working tomorrow p>
“No interview? Alice looked at him in disbelief.
If someone had said this to her before, she wouldn’t have doubted it.
But now it was different. No company dared to hire her, and Dwayne was willing to?
Dwayne nodded. ‘With your abilities, what is there to interview? I have seen your capabilities p>
He was referring to the incident with Clio.
Alice’s method of making Clio betray was indeed impressive, even catching Dwayne off guard at the time.
He had witnessed Alices prowess and had previously thought she was just a pretty face, overpraised.
He said calmly, But let me be clear, my company isn’t big, and your salary won’t match the Johnson Group. At most, it will be half
of what you used to earn p>
He held up his hand. “It’s the highest in our company. You ll be my secretary, no training needed, you can start immediately. The commission rate remains the same, and even when you bring in big projects.
Dwayne smiled at Alice.
Alice was indeed a treasure. If it weren’t for her offending Michael, she wouldn’t have ended up at his company.
The salary was indeed not low, considering Luminary Holdings Ltd was less than a third the size of the Johnson Group.
Alice pondered and found the salary acceptable, and she could start immediately. There wasn’t much to complain about.
But thinking of Michael, Alice still hesitated. “Are you sure you want me to start immediately p>
