In Love, Never Say Never (Ashton Fuller and Scarlett Stovall) novel Chapter 99

After some formal exchanges, the atmosphere in the room had gotten more vibrant.

In the meantime, the young lady next to Caleb seemed to be hinting at him about something. Caleb looked at us and said, “Actually, I have a favor to ask from you both. I hope you can agree to it.”

In response, I said with a smile, “Dr. Ludwick, we have been working together for many years. Let us know what do you need from us and we will do our best to help.”

Dr. Ludwick laughed and thanked us profusely. However, he was embarrassed to make his request.

Seeing as his husband was embarrassed, Martha uttered, “Well, the truth is, our niece has just graduated from university not long ago. Joining Fuller Corporation is her dream. She may be shy but she is really smart. Knowing that Fuller Corporation’s hiring requirement is extremely strict, we are hoping if you guys could assign a position for her in the company.”

I was stunned for a moment before looking towards Ashton. Fuller Corporation’s recruitment had always been strict, and every employee was carefully selected by the Human Resources department.

The strict procedure was not without reason. Firstly, Fuller Corporation was a listed company and the remuneration was way higher than other companies.

Secondly, one could gain a lot of exposure to the industry in Fuller Corporation. After all, employees had to go through extensive training in the company. Hence, ex-employees of Fuller Corporation were highly sought-after by companies of the same industry.

I had to go through the selection process as well to join Fuller Corporation. With George’s help, I was able to climb up the corporate ladder. Though, it was not without great effort on my part.

At that moment, the young lady was staring at Ashton with admiration clearly written all over her face.

After Ashton heard what Martha had said, he didn’t say anything but serve me a bowl of soup. “Drink more soup, it with calm your nerves and help you sleep better.”

I nodded and was curious about how he was going to deal with Caleb’s request. He looked at Caleb then shifted his gaze to Martha. “It’s an honor to be valued highly by the both of you. As you know, even my wife had to be assessed by Human Resources back then. Fuller Corporation will hold a job fair in June, maybe she could go for a tryout then.”

I was speechless upon seeing how Ashton dealt with the matter, seeing as he was unconcerned about doing others a favor on goodwill.

In truth, he was telling the young lady to enter the company based on her own abilities.

After seeing Caleb turned slightly embarrassed and that young lady didn’t look too pleased as well, I couldn’t help but say, “Ms. Ludwick is a graduate of a top university. With her ability, I believe we’ll be able to work together under the same roof.”

The young lady seemed better after hearing that. She looked at Ashton timidly and asked, “Really?”
