Shelia was supposed to be Juan's lover, yet Juan had been surprisingly harsh with her, not even bothering to
inquire about her situation.
“Okay, Mr. Nichols,” Liam said. “I'll take good care of Mrs. Nichols. | won't let her be mistreated at the company.”
Juan, growing impatient, ended the call abruptly without further comment.
Joe, who had been standing by, said cautiously, “If Miss Miles can’t secure an internship right away, her thesis...”
Juan's voice was cold and dismissive. “If she can’t secure an internship, then my years of training her have been
wasted. Don’t mention her
again. | have no further interest in her affairs.”
“Understood.”
In the afternoon, Debra received a call from Ben while she was in the middle of pouring herself a cup of tea.
“What's up, Ben?”

“This noon, several companies under the group received the sresume.”
“Whose resume?”
“Shelia Miles.”
Debra couldn't help but laugh. Freshly out of her job, Shelia was already scrambling for another position. She
was likely afraid that this
Internship debacle would cost her the graduate spot she had secured through Juan’s influence.

Ben chuckled, finding the situation rather amusing. “Uh... the vice GM position.”
After all, Shelia was just an intern who hadn't even graduated from school. Her ambition was almost comical.
“Which companies has she applied to?” Debra asked.
“A mix of smaller firms-sare under the Frazier Group, sunder the McKinney Group, and others are
businesses run by Mr. Osborne and Miss Mathis,” Ben listed.
Debra nodded, understanding the situation.
The Frazier Group had a lot of subsidiaries under its wing. Even if they were small, they were all well-known and
either part of Frazier Group's acquisitions or significant firms in their own right.
Shelia likely wasn’t aware of this, or she wouldn't have considered working for a company associated with the
Fraziers.
The McKinney Group’s newer companies were Debra’s ventures, known for offering good salaries. Without Juan's
support, Shelia might have. thought a higher-paying job at McKinney Group was her best option.
Moreover, she might have anticipated that these companies needed talent and figured she could land a decent
position with her educational background.
Randy and Erica were both prominent figures in the industry, and their companies were no less influential than
the Frazier Group.
Shelia thought she could find a company that wouldn't cross paths with Debra, but she underestimated the
interconnectedness of the city’s business landscape. Hundreds of companies were crammed together, and only a

Shelia had run into a tough spot indeed.
“Sendher reslater,” Debra instructed.
Ben was puzzled. “Madam, are you planning to hire Shelia?”
That was like inviting trouble.
Debra smiled, her eyes gleaming with a mix of amusement and
calculation. “The internship is less than a month long. If | don’t take her, someone else will. It’s better to keep
her here, where | can keep an eye on her. With her abilities, she won't stir up much trouble.”
“Understood.”
Debra ended the call, her mind racing with plans. She was genuinely curious to see what Shelia could achieve on
her own.
That safternoon, Shelia received an interview notice from one of McKinney Group’s companies.
