Chapter 361 The Competition
Leah frowned. “ HJ Corporation is a century-old company. Although the sales drop these ten years, the
front desk still represents the corporation’s identity. However, what you do is ruining the company’s
image.”
It seemed that the girl was not a trained receptionist at all. She must have used connections to get into
the company.
HJ Corporation suffered detrimentally loss in the past few years which caused internal contradictions. If
the company could come out with a unique product, it could bring the company back to its peak.
Leah wanted to create such a product to bring up the name of HJ Corporation again.
The receptionist was shocked. She could not help but stammer, "What... What did you say? I'm just
helping the company to drive away outsiders!”
"How can you judge a person by a glance? I came because HJ is recruiting designers.”
Leah possessed an elegant temperament. It was only then that the receptionist noticed Leah’s clothes
were noble brands by top designers.
“All right, all right. I… I’ll inform the president right away.” Although the receptionist was reluctant, she
gave in. Leah seemed powerful and had a strong backer. She could not afford to lose her job for
offending her.
However, Leah remained silent. She was not bothered even when the receptionist gave in.
Just when the receptionist was calling the president’s office, someone pressed the hook switch on the
phone with one hand and ended the call.

hair interrupted.
With exquisite makeup and dressed in a formal suit, she looked like a successful businesswoman.
Right away, Leah recognized her. She was Susan Victor, the president and chief designer of HJ
Corporation.
Although Susan looked cold, Leah still greeted her politely. “Hi, Ms. Victor. Nice to meet you. I’m a
designer. My name is Sarah White. I’m here to present a proposal for you.”
Susan took a glance at Leah and blurted, “I know you. You’re Mr. Ford’s wife from Pasteria. I’ve heard
a lot about you before. You have many affairs with married men. I’m sorry but our company will not
work with people like that.”
Hearing that, the receptionist could not help but sneer, “I know you’re that kind of woman. I should have
stopped you just now.”
Some onlookers also sniggered.
“Get out of HJ Corporation now!”
“She said she’s a designer. But look at her. She has affairs with married men!”
“Get out, bit**ch! There are many married men in our company. Does she wants to come here to
seduce them too?”
However, Leah seemed calm. She was not bothered by what those people said. “The police have
clarified everything. I think you guys didn’t follow the news comprehensively, did you?”
After that, Leah glared at Susan and said, “I didn’t expect that staff at HJ Corporation to be so
disrespectful. I’m sorry. I also can’t work with people like that either.”
Leah was not arrogant, but she had been bullied many times before. She used to endure it but she
couldn't take it anymore. She had to protect herself.
Nonetheless, Susan did not refute and watched Leah leave.
Right then, a luxurious limousine stopped at the entrance of the company. Seeing that, Susan walked
up immediately.
A gray-haired old man got out of the car and smiled at Susan. "Is this how you treat our distinguished
guests?”
Hearing that, Susan was confused. “Sinclair, what guest? We’re not expecting any distinguished guests
today.”
Nonetheless, Sinclair did not answer her. He caught up with Leah hurriedly. “ Ms. White, I’m very sorry.
If I had known you have a proposal for us…”
“You’re from HJ Corporation?” Sarah was stunned. She heard Sinclair talking to Susan just now.
“Yes, I’m Mr. Victor’s personal assistant and the butler for the Victor family. Mr. Victor is the chairman of
HJ Corporation.”
Hearing that, Susan and all the other staff were stunned.
“What’s going on? Who is she?”
“What happened? Why is Mr. Kaur so good to her?”
“Did she seduce the chairman?”
Immediately, Susan’s face darkened. She walked over to Sinclair and asked, “When did you know her?
What’s the relationship between this woman and my father?”
On the other side, Leah was stupefied too.
Dennis Victor, who was shot yesterday is the chairman of HJ Corporation? And Susan is his daughter?
“Ms. Victor, Ms. White saved your father yesterday, and Mr. Victor wanted to thank her,” Sinclair

Although no one could hear it, Susan’s face darkened immediately.
"What did Mr. Kaur whisper in Ms. Victor’s ear? Ms. Victor seems shocked!”
“Shut up and go back to work!”
Suddenly, Susan bawled at her staff. Then she came over to Leah and said politely, “Thanks for saving
my father yesterday, and I’m so sorry for what happened just now. Too many fake designers came to
HJ Corporation. That’s why we’re like that…But I’m willing to give you another chance, but you have to
compete with other designers on an equal footing.”
Hearing there was a chance to cooperate, Leah asked seriously, “What competition?”
If Leah could work with HJ Corporation, she could earn at least seventy to eighty million.
“There are too many people here. Let’s go to my office to talk.”
Susan led Sarah to her office and said, “I will hold a design competition in three days. If you win, not
only you can work with HJ Corporation, but I can also give the chief designer position to you.”
Hearing that, Leah was tempted. She agreed immediately.
Seeing Leah agree at once, Susan continued, “Not only designers from HJ Corporation will participate,
but I will also invite designers from Qustraebar to join as well. But of course, as the chief designer, I will
participate in the competition too.”
With a grin, Leah agreed again, “Sure, no problem.” In fact, that was what Leah wanted. She wanted to
prove herself.
After talking to Susan, Sinclair led Leah back to the car.
“Ms. White, what is your relationship with Mr. Hendrik?”
“Who?” Leah was confused.
