Chapter 1356:
Sylvie’s tone slipped into desperation as she looked Jordy in the eye. “I’m begging you. For old times’ sake.”
“No,” Jordy replied without hesitation. “Your family isn’t worth a danymore. I'd be burning money if | threw it
your way. Try your luck elsewhere.”
Jordy was well aware that the Higgins family had crossed the Harper family. Until they got the Harpers’
forgiveness, any chance of a comeback was a pipe dream.
Glancing aside, he spotted Brenna surrounded by her friends. He told Sylvie flatly, “If you really want another
shot, you'll have to beg Brenna for it.”
“I won't do that!” Sylvie shot back, her eyes shining with tears as she looked at Jordy.
Jordy didn’t flinch. Sentiment meant nothing to him anymore; if it didn’t turn a profit, he wasn’t interested.
He stood up and walked over to Brenna'’s table. “Well, isn’t this a surprise. Didn't expect to see you here.”
Brenna motioned toward an empty chair. “There's room if you want to eat with us.”
“Thanks, but my girlfriend’s waiting.” Jordy looked at Libby and Finley; their sharp suits and alert posture made it
clear they were on duty as bodyguards. Then, he looked at Lilith. He found her familiar, then remembered she
was Ernst’s fiancée.

Lilith glanced at Brenna, who gave a nod of confirmation. She got up to greet Jordy with a handshake. “Nice to
meet you.”
Jordy turned back to Brenna. “By the way, | heard Hector’s headed to Vanland soon. He's eyeing investments in
drone tech. Brenna, you might want to keep this on your radar. It could be a big opportunity for Mr. Mitchell.”

This was important news.
“I appreciate the tip. I'll keep an eye on it,” Brenna replied, sensing Jordy’s goodwill.
All the while, Sylvie watched their interaction with growing confusion. Jordy used to have nothing but contempt
for Brenna, and he couldn’t stand her. How had that changed completely? Was it really just because Brenna was
a member of the powerful Harper family?
It struck her as unfair. Why did things always seem to work out in Brenna’s favor?
BH Animation announced openings for concept artists, algorithm engineers, and several other positions on
multiple recruitment sites, quickly drawing interest from people in the field. With the promise of attractive salary
packages, the company’s HR inbox was soon overflowing with applications.
The human resources division had only five staff members, who spent long days and late nights sorting through
the submissions to find the most qualified. After two weeks, they narrowed the pool down to nearly three
thousand candidates for interviews.
On the fifty-seventh floor, 250 workstations had been arranged, each fully equipped. The company had even
managed to secure a significant entertainment project, largely through Dalton’s support.
Thiago and the HR staff worked tirelessly for over a week before finally emailing every candidate who made the
list.
Hank also joined in, lending a hand with reviewing applications and sending out interview notices. As soon as the
holiday break ended, the company launched interview sessions.
The HR department split into three pairs to handle the workload, with Thiago stepping in to help. From the
hallway, Hank called, “Number 1998, Sylvie Higgins.”
Sylvie slipped her compact mirror back into her purse and carried her resinto Interview Room 3. Just before
Christmas, the Higgins Group had collapsed into bankruptcy, leaving her searching for work. Brenna’s firm
promised excellent pay, and since her major aligned with the role, she had submitted her resume.
Still, her years at the Higgins Group had been spent coasting along with little effort, leaving her without much
practical experience. To improve her chances, Sylvie had fabricated her employment history on her resume. The
HR staff had failed to spot the false information.
