Zahir didn’t say anything else. He knew Wesley needed space to process everything.
Isabella had spent days organizing the assessment, working closely with the other examiners. Now, the papers were ready, and the assessment was set to begin.
As Isabella walked beside Jared, he suddenly burst out, “You’ve got to be kidding me! What’s Jada thinking now?”
Isabella glanced at Jared’s phone and saw the news—Jada had signed up for the Qiviut Organization’s assessment.
The organization prided itself on discretion, and it was rare for members to reveal their identities. Jada had become the first to break that rule.
“Does she not understand how risky it is to reveal herself like that?” Jared shook his head in disbelief.
“It makes sense,” Isabella responded calmly. “Jada’s lost everything. Esteban is divorcing Mara, and she needs the attention to rebuild her image. After all, Jada is still trying to get her perfume business off the ground.”
Jared sighed. “Maybe we should tell her to stay out of the assessment. She’s already crossed the line.”
“The assessment’s starting soon. If you tell her now, she’ll just stir up more trouble. It’s better to ignore her,” Isabella suggested.
Jared mulled it over and nodded. Anyway, Jada might not even make it through the assessment.
Just as Jared was about to ask Isabella if she’d join him for dinner, he spotted a man waiting by the door.
The man, dressed in a tailored black suit, carried himself with cool elegance. But his sharp, handsome face softened as soon as his eyes met Isabella’s.
Jared let out a soft whistle of admiration. Honestly, if he were in Isabella’s shoes, he’d probably fall for the guy too.
Jared watched as Isabella’s gaze softened, and she hurried toward the man.
Before leaving with Andrew for dinner, Isabella glanced back and waved goodbye to Jared.
A sudden wave of jealousy washed over Jared, making him think it was about time he found a girlfriend too.
The next day marked the official start of the organization’s assessment.
Thirty interns showed up to compete, but with only one spot open, the atmosphere buzzed with a mix of excitement and nerves.
“I heard Rose is leading the assessment this time. She’s incredible—she always nails every mission!”
“Yeah, I know her. She’s the reason I even joined the organization.”
“I wonder what the legendary Rose even looks like.”
The room was filled with excited murmurs from the interns. One person stood out—a woman in the corner, nose deep in a book, quietly muttering to herself.
“Look at her acting all hardworking now,” Jada sneered, eyeing the woman in the corner.
With a disinterested look, Jada muttered, “Is she seriously one of us?”
The woman in the corner was one of Jada’s old classmates from middle school—bookish and uptight, just as she remembered. Back in school, Jada had been the queen bee, never giving girls like her the time of day.
Running into her now felt like swallowing a bitter pill. How could someone like that end up in the same organization as her?
“Forget about her, Jada. She’s way too boring to pass the assessment. You’ve got the best shot here,” someone chimed in eagerly, trying to flatter her.
Thanks to her wealthy family and sharp social skills, Jada easily stood out from the other interns. No matter the setting, there were always people who cozied up to the powerful and sneered at the weak.
Overhearing the conversation, Jared frowned slightly. Without a word, he directed the interns toward the assessment room to begin.
The assessment room was wrapped in an almost eerie silence, punctuated only by the soft rustle of writing on paper.
Jada focused intently on each question.
After days of diligent study, these questions felt well within her grasp. As she finished answering all of them, a wave of confidence washed over her; she was certain she had aced the assessment.
Becoming a member of the Qiviut Organization meant she would soon command respect and admiration from everyone around her. After all, every task from the Qiviut Organization carried a price tag in the tens of millions of dollars.
As the assessment came to a close, everyone filed out of the room, eagerly awaiting the results.
“Jada, how did you do?” someone asked.
“I think I did alright; the questions weren’t too difficult,” Jada responded, casually tucking a stray lock of hair behind her ear.
Her poised demeanor sparked envy among her peers.
“Wow, you’re amazing! I didn’t even know how to tackle several of those questions,” another voice exclaimed.
A faint smile crept across Jada’s lips as her gaze fell upon the quiet woman in the corner, prompting a scoff to escape her.
“How did you do, Gabriela?” she inquired.
Gabriela Fowler cast a fleeting glance in her direction but remained silent as she walked away.
“Hmph, what a nerd. Jada, don’t waste your time on her. With that personality, there’s no way she’ll make it into the organization,” a voice nearby derided.
Jada shrugged it off, unfazed; people like Gabriela were hardly worthy of her attention.
The results were to be announced half an hour later, and most people lingered, nerves taut with anticipation.
Jada wandered around, her eyes scanning the crowd, when suddenly, she spotted a familiar figure walking next to Jared. What was Isabella doing here on the day of the Qiviut Organization’s assessment?
An inexplicable sense of dread coiled in Jada’s heart. She instinctively trailed after them, watching as they slipped into the examiner’s office.
Jada’s expression soured.
Wasn’t Jared being too kind to Isabella? Everything about the organization was supposed to be cloaked in secrecy, yet here was Jared, casually ushering Isabella into the office as if it were no big deal!
Jada’s indignation simmered beneath the surface, but as an intern, she had no authority to voice her discontent. She was forced to retreat to the waiting area.
Half an hour later, Jared strolled in.
He announced, “The results are in! This time, the top scorer is Gabriela Fowler! I want to extend my gratitude to everyone for your contributions to the organization so far. Each of you will receive a bonus. Gabriela, please come with me.”
For the first time, a flicker of excitement danced across Gabriela’s typically stoic face as she made her way toward Jared. Yet, before she could reach him, someone else was quicker to approach him.
“This can’t be!” Jada’s voice sliced through the air, charged with fury. Her face was livid. “You’re deceiving everyone! I never imagined the Qiviut Organization could harbor someone as disgraceful as you!”
Her vehement words left the room in stunned silence. Had Jada lost her mind? Jared was a prominent figure in the organization!
“Jada, what are you doing?” Gabriela inquired, her voice steady and commanding.
Jada’s eyes widened, her gaze fixed on Gabriela with a disdainful smirk. “Gabriela, do you honestly believe you can speak to me like this just because you’ve become a full member? But don’t delude yourself—you’re not truly the top scorer. Someone tampered with the rankings!”
At this, the crowd drew a collective breath, their gazes shifting to Jared, each face a canvas of conflicting emotions.
Jared’s voice turned icy as he stated, “Jada, you need to leave!”
“You want to silence me and hide the truth from everyone, is that it?” Jada’s eyes blazed with defiance.
Jada’s fury flared. “So this is what the Qiviut Organization is like? If I had known you were this terrible, I would never have bothered to show up!”
Witnessing Jada’s unbridled rage, the onlookers couldn’t help but feel a twinge of suspicion. What was really going on here?
“Jada, are you questioning our scoring just because you didn’t perform well in the examination?” Jared asked coldly.
“I didn’t perform well?” Jada scoffed, a mocking glint in her eyes. “I saw it clearly just now—Isabella is here, isn’t she? You truly are something, allowing Isabella into the organization with all its secrets. She came here solely to thwart my chances of becoming a full member, didn’t she?”
Isabella?
That name rang a bell for most people. The drama between Jada and Isabella was the talk of the town. Did Isabella really come here to sabotage Jada’s advancement? Was the Qiviut Organization so lax that an outsider could sway their decisions?
