Leave Me Alone, Mr Shaffer

Chapter 19

The following morning at 9.00AM, Isabella sat in the

Interview room and recalled what Natasha had

said earlier in the morning, feeling both annoyed

and amused. “You should go. Pick out some flawed

candidates for him and see if he can bear it,” she

said.

However, Isabella dared not tease Seth. She hadn’t

even dared to do so when she was his executive

secretary, let alone now. As a mere salesperson,

she had to consider Jonas‘ disapproving attitude

even when they wanted to take the day off, so

crossing Seth would be asking for trouble.

All her former colleagues from the secretary

department were present. Their expressions varied

when they saw Isabella, but they still greeted her

nonetheless. Only Fiona wore her heart on her

sleeve and didn’t greet Isabella.

Isabella thought Fiona was probably upset that she

didn’t get the position of executive secretary, and

she couldn’t help but smile wryly. Even a hot potato

like Seth had people fighting over him.

“Isabella, shall we begin?” One of the secretaries, Ellie Gardner, asked for Isabella’s opinion.

Isabella sat in the main seat, a bit surprised. “Are

you the only interviewer?”

Ellie replied with a smile, “Mr. Shaffer still trusts you.

You have the final say.

Upon hearing that, Isabella furrowed her brows

slightly, feeling somewhat uncomfortable when she

sensed something amiss.

She adjusted her glasses. “Let them all in, then.”

“Okay.”

Isabella usually didn’t wear glasses, but her face

still bore some marks from the previous night’s

incident. It couldn’t be concealed, so she had to

wear glasses. With her glasses on, she exuded a

cold demeanor. No one could guess the emotions

in her eyes, which were hidden behind those

lenses.

Three women came in for the first round of

interviews.

All of them were graduates from prestigious

universities and had impressive educational

backgrounds. They were not only smart but also

attractive. With their distinct features and shapely

figures, they looked lively yet captivating.

“Most of your information is already on your

Chapter 19 Qualifications for the Chief Secretary

resumes, so I won’t ask about that.” Isabella closed

the resumes and interlocked her hands. “Do any of

you have boyfriends?”

The three women were momentarily taken aback

but hesitated for a moment before answering in

unison, “No.”

Isabella pursed her lips, a glint of sharpness

flashing in her eyes behind the glasses. “How about

ex–boyfriends? How many partners have you had

before?”

Since her question was too direct, it made the

others feel uncomfortable.

“We just graduated. How many ex–boyfriends can

we possibly have?” One of the girls with long hair

couldn’t help but frown. She sounded quite

unfriendly.

Isabella’s expression remained unchanged. “Miss

Celia Stark, right?”

The woman with long hair snorted but didn’t say

anything.

Isabella continued coldly, “You had two

ex–boyfriends in your freshman year. Then, during

sophomore year, you hooked up with a wealthy

man, almost driving his wife into ending her life.

You went abroad during the last two years of

college and had six boyfriends. Five were

foreigners, and the last one was biracial.”

There were seven to eight people in the room, and

they all couldn’t help but click their tongues.

As soon as the first sentence was uttered, Celia

instantly turned pale. By the time Isabella finished,

the former’s originally delicate and rosy face had turned as red as a beet.

She shot up from her chair and pointed at Isabella.

“Did you dig into my background?!”

With a polite yet cold smile, Isabella responded,

“Shaffer Group is one of the most comprehensive,

leading enterprises in the country, and the value of

the company’s image is immeasurable. You are

interviewing for the position of the president’s

executive secretary. If your private life is not in

order and gets exposed in the future, people will go

around saying there’s a problematic president’s

secretary in the Shaffer Group. Do you think that’d

be appropriate?”

After she spoke, everyone from the secretarial

office found it reasonable. Even the candidates

interviewing alongside Celia moved a bit farther

away from her, afraid of being associated with her.

“You’re insane!” Celia kicked a chair, not bothering

to explain, and stormed out of the room.

Isabella remained unfazed and instructed

someone to close the door.

“Deborah Barron, Madeleine Bradley,” she

announced calmly.

“My private life is pretty boring, to say the least.”

“Yeah, I’ve only had two boyfriends.”

Those two had short hair and looked witty. When

they spoke, they had a kind of delicate and gentle

charm that was characteristic of southern women.

Isabella smiled. “Both of you have gone under the

knife, am I right?”

“Why does the company care if we’ve had plastic

surgery or not?”

“Exactly. Is it wrong to make myself look prettier?”

Isabella remained composed and said calmly, “I

assume you both have seen the recruitment

advertisement. You know that the main body of this

recruitment is not the Shaffer Group, right?”

Although the tiny print at the bottom called for a

personal assistant, it was noticeable nonetheless.

Moreover, Seth’s appearance alone was enough to

attract plenty of young women, even without his

current status.

Sure enough, after Isabella finished speaking, both

girls blushed.

They were both graduates in secretarial studies, so they naturally knew the specific requirements for personal assistant positions.

“Mr. Shaffer has very high requirements for his

executive secretary. He values both hygiene and

the natural human body. As for situations like what

just happened, the probability of hygiene issues

arising is too high. Therefore, we can’t hire

someone like that.”

With her arms crossed, Isabella leaned against the

chair and lowered her gaze to Deborah’s chest.

“Can both of you guarantee that the implants in

your bodies won’t deform due to vigorous activity?

Will it not affect…. suppleness?”

Pfft-

As soon as Isabella finished speaking, both

interviewers from the secretary department

spewed out their coffee before the interviewees

could start feeling anxious. Then, they looked at Isabella with admiration.

“We thought a large corporation like Shaffer Group

wouldn’t be involved in such despicable dealings.

You’ve proved us wrong. This has gone overboard!”

The two girls who had undergone cosmetic surgery

stood up in unison, indignant. Their words were

filled with righteousness, claiming that they never

had such impure intentions. They pointed at

Isabella and delivered a moral critique before

carrying their bags and storming away.

Keeping her expression composed, Isabella

efficiently marked Xs on the three resumes. Then,

she looked up. “Bring in the next batch.”
