NovelEnglishChapter 47 Chloe flashed a smile. "Sir, it doesn't matter who does the interview." "It does matter. Your work is your work. Mr. Connor specifically asked for you. Please, just go." Chloe didn't get up, her smile still light. "Since Linda has already gone, I'll pass. I believe she can handle it. We're all working for the station, and I won't make a fuss." Tony knew Chloe well enough to know she wasn't easy to deal with. Saying she wouldn't make a fuss actually meant she would.
Even after mentioning Mr. Connor's request, she remained unmoved. This meant she needed an apology to smooth things over.
"How about this: I'll have Linda cback and apologize to you." Tony gauged Chloe's reaction carefully.
Chloe stayed silent, which Tony took as a good sign. He immediately called Linda, instructing her to return to the station and ask Chloe to take over.

Linda quickly returned to the station.
With a hint of frustration, Tony said, "Linda, what's the deal? Mr. Connor agreed to Chloe's interview, not yours." "Sir, I'm sorry. I had a long conversation with Mr. Connor yesterday morning. He didn't explicitly refuse, so I thought he had tacitly agreed. It was a misunderstanding on my part." Linda's eyes welled up with tears, making it hard to scold her.
Tony said, "Go apologize to Chloe." Biting her lip, she approached Chloe's desk. "Chloe, I'm sorry. It was all a misunderstanding. I didn't mean to take your interview slot. Please go to CNR. Everyone's waiting for you." Chloe looked up at Linda, her smile enigmatic. "Linda, can everything be resolved if it's just a misunderstanding?" Back in summer camp, when she and Lucas hooked up she cback saying it was a misunderstanding. When she got pregnant with Lucas' child, she also claimed it was a misunderstanding.
And now, yet another misunderstanding.
Tears filled Linda's eyes. Her large, innocent, and vulnerable eyes looked back at Chloe. "What do you wantto do? I'll do anything you say." Chloe had once been fooled by those innocent eyes. She had genuinely cared for Linda, fought for her, and even taken a knife for her, bearing a half-foot-long scar on her shoulder.
The more she had invested in Linda, the more resentful she felt.
But now, Chloe had something else she needed to confirm.
Chloe stood up. "Linda, cwith me." They entered an empty conference room, with Linda following behind. Chloe firmly closed the door, shutting out the prying eyes outside.

Once inside, Linda immediately knelt down, grabbing Chloe's hands.
The station manager had already boasted about securing Connor's ח' interview at Eldridge TIf they ended up not getting the interview with Connor, it wouldn't just be her dignity at stake but also the manager's. Chloe pulled her hand away. "Linda, I need to ask you something, and I want an honest answer."
Linda looked up at Chloe with those sinnocent eyes. "Did you teth incident youth Lucas about my incident during our freshman year summer break? Was it you?" Linda's gaze flickered away for a moment.
Chloe pieced together all the past incidents and was certain Linda had told Lucas just to stir trouble between her and Lucas.
However, she couldn't be completely sure of whether Linda had orchestrated the whole thing.
