Sophia:
No, it wasn’t like she was doing anything else at home besides grinding herbs.
If she had, or showed any interest, it was only in grinding herbs.
How did this have anything to do with design?
She had never seen anything related to design at the Roscente family home.
Wait a minite-
Earlier, when she finished the video call with Sherry and was chaming with Averic, she did open the first three design drafts of the “Princess” brand that Averie sent her
So, was that why her Andrew was arting so strangely at lunch!
It turned out that her Andrew had mistakenly thought she was looking at design sketches for the studio created by Xandra and Chloe, and figured she might be interested in design, which led him to ack Lukas to arrange all thist

Her Andrew was actually worried about her, feeling insecure because Xandra and Chloe were so exceptional, and wanted to give he role, trying to elevate her above those two?
Well, that’s…
Her Andrew had quite the imagination.
But, as she thought about it, a warm feeling flowed throughs her heart.

Being
This was something she had never experienced before
Being unconditionally spoiled by her Andrew and Lukas, who even gave her access to the Rocente Group’s design department without knowing she was the founder of the “Luminous brand…
It felt like pure indulgence.
She never imagined that one day, she could get to enjoy such warmth.
Warmth from family.
Her eyes felt a little moist, and a soft smile spread across her face. “But… Lukas, aren’t you afraid that I might not know anything and choor designer who don’t meet your expectations?”
Lukas wasn’t too concerned. “Any designer who’s made it to the Rosscente Group interview has passed multiple rounds of selection, so there’s no need to worry about anything.
Multiple rounds of selection
Sophia remembered the few competitive women she had encountered in the waiting area. She couldn’t quite see how they could have passed all
those selections
It seemed more likely that there were other connections behind this so–called interview process.
In the workplace, behaviors like favoring some while excluding others, or forming cliques, were Commun
Hut this was her family’s company.
How could such a culture be allowed to tarnish the Koscente name!
Since her Andrew and Lukas tried her so much and had gone to such lengths to make her happy and confident.
She wouldn’t let their good intentions go to waste,
Besides, it was a perfect opportunity to help Lakas root out any parasites from the Roscente Group and pick out the real talents who would benefit

Sophia didn’t reject the offer. “Alright, 131 give it a try-
“Enjoy yourself,” Lukas said, the sharp lines of his face softening into a gentle curve as he smiled. “Don’t worry about making any anything happens, I’ll take responsibility. You just enjoy yourself”

Sophia left Lukas” office, it was already 3:30 p.m.
mistakes. If
The interview process at the design department was already in full swing, so Lukas asked Carl to take Sophia there to greet the senior staff who were interviewing
After thinking for a moment, Sophia shook her head. Tll go by myself.”
“Since the family hasn’t officially introduced your identity, if you go alone, the senior staff won’t recognize you. What if..” Lukas frowned, clearly not agreeing.
Sophia flicked her eyes up playfully, her lips curving into a sly smile. “That’s what makes it fun.”
Laikas immediately understood her intention.
u’ll be the chief
His gaze softened with affection and a hint of indulgence. “Alrigiu, play it your way. I’ll call them in a bit and let them know you’ll be the chief examiner for this interview, Everything will be up to you.”
“Of course, I won’t reveal your identity”
Lukas raised an eyebrow and turned to Carl, who was tidying up the dining table. “Prepare an official certificate for Sophia. When she’s ready to reveal her identity, she can present the certificate, and the senior staff will understand what to do,”
Sophia felt a warm current flowing through her heart, and a small crescent–shaped smile appeared. “Thank you, Lukas”
It was obvious that Lukas was worried she might be wronged while “playing” on her own.
Lukas gazed deeply at her smiling face, feeling his heart sollen further,
After sil his little Sofi was the best.
Her soft voice calling him “Brother,” the way she smiled at him—he’d do anything to keep her happy
It was much more endearing than those annoying little brothers who only ever caused trouble.
He chuckled, “The interview’s already been going on for a while. Go on. If there’s anything you can’t solve, call me. No matter what I’m doing. Mil rush over to help you.”

The interviews w
were going smoothly when suddenly, the design department’s director, Kaia, knocked and entered, pausing the current interviews.
The senior staff and the manager in charge of the interviews followed Kaia into the meeting room, confused.
When Kaia
shared the news
the news she had just received, the senior staff and manager furrowed their brows
“What? The higher–ups have sent in a chief examiner for the interview who has the absolute right to decide who gets hired?”
“So why are we sitting here? Just to be the backdrop!”
“Director, do you know who this chief examiner is? Who has so much clout that the higher–ups would send them to oversee this?
“This is a design department interview. Shouldn’t it be up to us professionals to evaluate? Why send someone from outside to interfere?”
Surrounded by the chattering voices, Kaia frowned and knocked on the table.
I
When everyone quieted down, she coldly said, “This is an order directly from Mr. Hoscente. If anyone has objections, take them to him”
The senior staff and manager’s expressions shifted.
So it was an order directly from
om Mr. Koscente. which h meant the chief e
examiner was someone
ne from Mr. Rosernie’s circle
Broly Hughes, one of the senior staff clenched his fists, his face looking a little strange. “Director, does this mean the three design positions up for grala will be decided solely by the chief examiner! We have no say in the matter?

Kaia replied flatly, “That’s right”
Brody tightened his

The other senior staff and managers wore various expressions.
But since Mr. Roscente’s name had been dropped, any objections they had to the arrangement had to be swallowed down.
