“Noelle, you’re passionate about this game.

It’s clear it’s more than just a hobby for you.

How would you feel about managing the team?”

Noelle was taken aback.

“Am I misunderstanding? Lucinda, are you really offering me a job?”

Lucinda affectionately ruffled her hair.

“Yeah.

Seeing Noelle cooped up in the villa, buried in study materials yet clearly restless, Lucinda figured it was time for a new challenge.

Noelle’s enthusiasm for the club made her decision easy.

“I’m in.

I’m going to give my all in the management of the team.

Lucinda tempered her excitement.

“Hold on.

Remember, your postgraduate exams are still your priority.

You must balance your studies with this new role.

The job typically runs from afternoon to evening, leaving your mornings free for study.

Cyrus can help you with your exam prep after hours.

It’ll be a full schedule.

Think you can handle it?”

Noelle mulled over Lucinda’s question with her head bowed.

The question was quite serious.

Now accustomed to a more laid-back lifestyle, she feared the adjustment might prove challenging, even if only temporarily.

However, her passion for the game Shields of Hauntings, especially watching the professionals play, sparked excitement within her.

This job could fill her with joy.

Regarding her postgraduate exams, she resolved to take a more measured approach.

Failing to pass this year meant she could simply try again next year.

After careful consideration, Noelle declared with conviction, “Lucinda, I’m willing to give it a shot.

I’ll do everything you’ve asked to the best of my ability.

“Okay, I believe in you,” Lucinda responded, offering a reassuring pat on Noelle’s face.

“Why don’t you stay here today to get acquainted with the surroundings? I’ll discuss the investment contract with the club’s founder.

Don’t worry.

I’ll speak to Cyrus for you.

“Thank you, Lucinda,” Noelle replied, her smile gentle.

“You’re welcome.

Meanwhile, in Forden, at the Turner Group, Hilliard had grown comfortable handling any task Jennifer assigned, thanks to their time together.

Although his genius was recognized in medicine, his talents were not confined to that field alone.

Previously indifferent to the world of business, he now realized he could have been a formidable CEO had he pursued it.

Jennifer often found herself stealing glances at Hilliard as he worked, his handsomeness providing a pleasant distraction.

Hilliard, finishing up the last document with swift keystrokes, turned to look at her.

Jennifer quickly averted her gaze, feigning interest in her computer screen.

Unaware of her covert admiration, Hilliard spoke earnestly.

“Miss Turner, may I leave work early tonight? I have some matters to attend to.

“Did you finish the tasks I assigned?” Jennifer inquired.
