"Which is why I'm taking my shot now," she said firmly, her voice carrying a kind of conviction that didn't waver.
Her eyes locked onto mine, filled with determination that made it hard to brush her off. For a brief moment, I actually felt compelled to accept her into my company right then and there. But the reality wasn't that simple. I wasn't the one making all the final decisions. That authority lay with Amon.
And that was the problem—I was the one running around, checking things, giving the green light to the people and plans Amon put together, but when it came down to it, the ultimate call wasn't mine. Which was why I honestly had no idea how to handle her right now.
"I don't think it's really that easy to get recruited into our company," I finally told her, my tone calm but firm. "I mean, if you truly want to work at Leonamon Company, then you can just apply directly to the company. That's the proper way."
