NovelEnglishChapter 261 Chapter 261 Ron was so chill that he didn't feel like my boss at all-more like a friend.
I smiled at him, then turned to Hayden. "You and Mr. Shane seem pretty tight. I've never seen anyone grab lunch with the boss right after an interview." I mentioned it because Steve had toldthat the person supporting Ron had the last nHart.
My suspicion flared up again.

"What? You don't think I'm worth it?" he asked, straight-up.
I rolled my eyes. "No, that's not what I meant." After a beat, I asked, "So, what did you make at your last job? "Fifteen grand a month," Hayden said casually, and I nearly did a double-take. Ron was offering him, like, over eight times that.
"Wow, he's... definitely got guts," I muttered, not sure what else to say as Hayden raised an eyebrow.
"I was the one who threw out the number. I didn't think he'd actually go for it," Hayden admitted.
I let out a dry laugh. "OceanixCorp must really need talent." I shook my head, still in disbelief. "You've got sguts, too, asking for that much." Even at RiverwaveCorp, the deputy CEOs barely made that kind of money.
"I'm worth it. Plus, I need the cash for our wedding," Hayden added, making my face heat up.
I cleared my throat and decided not to respond. I quickly started the car and asked, "Where to? I'll give you a ride." "What about you?" he shot back.

"He's really that thoughtful?" "You can ask him yourself. Do I look like the kind of guy who'd make that up?" Just as he finished, my phone buzzed. Sure enough, it was a text from Ron tellingto take the rest of the day off.
I chuckled, shaking my head. "You're really something else. You haven't even started, and the boss is already rolling out the red carpet. Are you sure you're not secretly best friends with Mr. Shane or, like, co-owners of the company?" Hayden just looked at me, saying nothing. I held his gaze for a few seconds, then waved it off. Still, I +25 BONUS Chapter 261 couldn't shake the feeling that Ron was being unusually chummy with Hayden, especially considering his backer's last nwas Hart.
My imagination went into overdrive. "Hayden, do you have any siblings? Like a super-rich older brother or something?" *Just my sister, Yuna," I frowned. "Okay, what about any loaded cousins with the slast name?"
"I've got a few cousins, but they're all pretty normal, just doing regular jobs. None of them are rich. His O straightforward answer leftat a dead end. Maybe I was overthinking things.
I realized I was being paranoid. First, m I'd suspected Matthew over a contract. Now, just because Ron had a investor nan named Hart, I was side-eyeing Hayden too. Ugh. I was even starting to annoy myself. "Have you ever been to a police station?" Hayden asked out of nowhere.
I blinked and shook my head. "Nope."
