Chapter 502
"Is that so?" Winnie stiffened as she waited patiently for what Edward would say next.
"Your resis pretty good and your major is considerably relevant, but you're too young. Our company wants
to hire someone with more experience. Even if you are to cin, you'll probably have to start with being an
intern.
"As long as | pull strings for you in our HR department, they will surely hire you!" Edward boasted smugly. "As
long as I'm there, | can assure you that your application won't fall between the cracks!
"| can also tell you something that ordinary people don't know-Cinnamine Pharmaceuticals recently has had a
very good trajectory. We're not only going to acquire Lyceo Cosmeceuticals, but we're also launching a new
product soon.
"I've got news from insiders that once this new product is in the market, it'll becthe next best-selling item in
the season which will cause Cinnamine Pharmaceuticals’ shares to increase at least two times! If you cinto
the company now, you will be entering at just the right time.

"If you wait till we acquire Lyceo Cosmeceuticals, the number of people who will want to work here would be
bursting at the seams!"
Then, he picked up a bottle of alcohol, got up, and inched closer to Winnie. He wanted to pull Winnie to sit closer
to him.
Winnie scooted backward, so Edward wasn't able to touch her.
"It's still early now. Let's drink more!"
"I really can't drink anymore, Mr. Edward. If | drink more, I'll be drunk." Winnie refused.
"Winnie, you're applying to be the CEO's secretary. How could you not know how to drink? When you're out in
business meetings, you'll have to be the one to step in and help Ms. Lovell handle her drinks."
Edward patted Winnie's shoulder once more with his meaty hand.
"We're all family here. Even if you're drunk, we have transportation to send you back. If that doesn't work, we
can even get you a room upstairs to rest. What are you so afraid of?
"Drink this bottle of alcohol withand I'll talk to Ms. Lovell for you tomorrow. You don't even need to go for an
interview. You can just cstraight to work!"
"How's that possible?" Winnie was shocked.
"What's not possible? | have a very close relationship with Ms. Lovell. It'll only take one word fromto get you
hired by her!"
Yolanda frowned slightly. Edward and his lying skills were through the roof!
Cianna was going to transfer the company to her, so Cianna didn't need another assistant. Even if she did,
according to how serious she was with her work, her requirements for an assistant would be really high as well.
How could matters like this be settled in just a word from him?
Also, even though he as the facilities manager was considered to be one of the higher management members,
amongst all the other members of management, he really didn't have a lot of decision-making power.
Yolanda knew Edward's intention right away. He wanted to trick Winnie first, and after he had gotten what he
wanted, he could just not own up at all.
From the moment Yolanda entered, she could tell that by the way Edward looked at Winnie that he had no good
intentions. It was a good thing she called Winnie before this. If not, these bastards would have forced Winnie to
drink until she was drunk.
"This doesn't seem right, Mr. Edward. | think it's better to go through proper procedures and interviews." Winnie
hesitated for a while.
She didn't expect Edward to have so much say in the company to be able to appoint hires for the position of
CEO's secretary. However, since Edward didn't give her a good impression, she kept her guard up and took what
Edward said with a pinch of salt.
"What's not good about it?" Edward replied with entitledly.
"Do you know who Ms. Lovell's secretary is right now? It's Kelly Pattinson. | was the one who got her in with the
strings I've pulled."
"Really?" Now, not only was Winnie shocked, but Stella and the rest who were seated on the couch were all
looking at Edward with admiration in their eyes.
There were only two people in the CEO's office-her assistant and her secretary.
If Edward could arrange for Kelly to get the job of the CEO's secretary, it would be an easy feat for him to just
arrange for someone else to be another secretary for the CEO.
