Chapter 63
"I’ve been waiting for hours, sis. You should compensate me with something," Erin said.
Kate clenched her bag as she was trying to gather enough strength and self-control not to accidentally claw her bitch of a sister’s face.
She took a deep breath and walked towards the side of her desk. She stood right beside Erin, who was leaning back leisurely on her executive chair. "That’s my seat. Get off."
"Hm? Get off?" Erin smirked.
She put her feet up on the desk and leaned to put more weight on her back, making her lean deeper into the seat. "This is just a chair, why are you being so petty?"
"..." Kate went silent for a moment. She didn’t want to fight over something as stupid as a chair, so she decided to change the topic before their arguments turned bad and Erin decided to threaten her again with her mother’s weak hert. "Why are you here? What do you want?"
"I mean, it’s obvious, right? I’m totally unemployed right now and have been jobless for quite a while since graduation. Don’t you think I deserve to get a job? I mean, my SISTER just so happens to be the CHIEF EDITOR of a very successful publishing company. It shouldn’t be hard for you to give me a job," Erin said, emphasizing certain words to get her message across.
Kate already knew what Erin wanted.
In all honesty, Erin was an open book. She was easy to read but also very reckless and ruthless. She stopped at nothing to get whatever she wanted even if that meant she’d hurt one or two people along the way.
"You are not qualified to work here," Kate said without hesitation. "We’ve been through this before. I will give you a chance to do an interview without a test. I told you to study everything about the company’s policy, vision and mission, and also to study at least four classical or contemporary works of fiction of your choice. You have it easy, and yet you still fail."
"Well, that’s because the interviewer is biased against me," Erin rolled her eyes and flipped her hair. "She’s probably jealous because she looks like a hippo while I look like a model. That’s why you shouldn’t hire ugly people in this office, they’re so jealous for no reason at all!"
