“I understand.” The person on the other end of the line chuckled, “We trust your company, but we chose Miss Hodge as our spokesperson because she is a graduate of our university.”
“That’s right,” Jane nodded with some regret, “I apologize for not clarifying before agreeing.”
The other person was also reasonable, which relieved Jane of her guilt.
“It’s alright, it was presumptuous of us. Since the schedule is tight, we’ll contact you next time.”
“Okay.” Jane agreed, realizing that they weren’t completely angry. This made things easier to handle.
In the end, after their conversation, they decided to cancel the endorsement.
After the phone call, Jane let out a sigh of relief.
Losing such a good opportunity left her with mixed feelings.
Being away from the company for a while caused the company to fall behind, so now they desperately needed fame and resources. If they missed this opportunity, there might not be another good resource like this next time.
She still had some doubts about why Haven was so resistant, even with such a good opportunity at hand.
Haven was not someone she personally recruited, so she didn’t know much about her, and as for Marco…
Jane sighed. Marco probably didn’t know about all these things either. Even if she asked him, he would likely be clueless.
However, since Haven was brought in by Marco, she should ask him about it.
She went to Marco’s office, and he looked surprised when she arrived.
“Why did you suddenly come to me?”
“I have something to ask you.” Jane sat down and placed Haven’s personal information on the desk, “She was recruited by you, right?”
Marco looked at Haven’s photo and nodded, “What’s wrong? Isn’t she well-behaved?”
Jane shook her head. Obviously, Marco didn’t notice anything unusual about Haven.
“Don’t you find her situation peculiar?”
Jane asked, but Marco didn’t think much of it.
“It’s just rumors from people online.”
“That’s true.” Jane narrowed her eyes, “But I always feel like she’s different from others.”
“She’s talented, that’s what makes her different.”
Clearly, Marco didn’t realize the issue at hand.
Jane felt helpless and ran her hand through her hair, “How did you recruit her?”
“At a job fair, I saw that she had good abilities.”
It seemed that the trail ended here as well.
Jane felt a bit helpless. Job fairs have a large number of people, and if she were to investigate, it would be quite difficult at the moment.
“Alright, you can go back to your work.”
Jane stood up and left.
If she wanted to find out the reason, it seemed she would have to investigate Finley.
But thinking about Finley’s expression that day, he didn’t seem eager to talk about Haven.
Jane’s mind silently speculated about the reason behind Haven’s rejection of endorsing her university.
Thinking about that man, who was Haven’s university classmate, but Haven insisted she didn’t know him.
With all these factors, the doubts grew even stronger.
However, the incidents of impersonation in universities were only recently exposed. Many university students had already suffered, indicating that these events had occurred several years ago.
Jane realized the problem. Could it be that Haven was somehow involved?
She left the company and went straight to the alley.
Just like last time, Finley wasn’t there in the alley.
This made her somewhat puzzled. The scene in the alley was the same as when she last came. Could it be that Finley hadn’t been here these past few days?
These cats and dogs often roamed around. If Finley wasn’t there, they would find food on their own.
She raised an eyebrow and opened the contact she had with Finley. She typed a line of text.
If she wanted her to come, directly mentioning Haven’s situation, she would probably refuse.
Thinking about her feelings for these cats and dogs last time, Jane typed another line of text.
“Orange got bitten by a big cat these past few days. When I arrived, it was covered in wounds. Come and take a look.”
As expected, after sending the message, Finley quickly replied.
“I’ll come right away.”
Jane smiled leisurely, not worried that Finley wouldn’t believe her.
As expected, in less than ten minutes, Finley appeared in the alley.
When she saw that Orange cat was completely unharmed, she realized that Jane had tricked her.
“Why did you call me here?”
Finley said in a displeased tone. Haven had warned her last time, so this time, her attitude towards Jane wasn’t as enthusiastic as before.
She had been afraid of running into Jane here, which was why she hadn’t come until now.
“I just wanted to ask about Haven.”
Jane got straight to the point. As soon as she mentioned Haven, Finley immediately frowned, “Who is that? I don’t know her.”
Seeing Finley’s reaction, it seemed that Haven had told her something in advance.
But Jane didn’t mind. Based on Finley’s attitude last time, her relationship with Haven wasn’t very good.
How could two sisters with a bad relationship keep each other’s secrets?
“I helped her with a charity event at her university today.”
As soon as these words were spoken, Finley immediately looked up, “She agreed?”
Seeing Finley’s strong reaction, it reinforced Jane’s speculation.
“Are you surprised?”
Jane asked in return, and Finley realized she had given herself away, shaking her head.
“It’s her business, it has nothing to do with me.”
“Heh…” Jane smiled, showing her teeth, “Indeed, but her reaction was a bit extreme. I’m not sure why.”
“If she did something herself, it’s not surprising she reacted that way.”
Finley muttered softly to herself, then nodded, “I don’t understand what it means.”
After all, Haven had warned her. If something went wrong with her career, the first thing she would do was come to Finley.
But Jane overheard what Finley said.
Seeing that Finley still didn’t want to talk, Jane didn’t force her.
“I declined the endorsement for her, she didn’t want it.”
Jane straightforwardly said, and Finley instantly looked over.
“She really refused?”
“Of course.”
Jane nodded. But in that case, Haven might indeed have some connection with that university.
And the incident might be the catalyst that caused their relationship to deteriorate.
Seeing Finley’s expression, she must know the truth.
Perhaps, because Finley knew everything, Haven tried to hide the fact that she had a sister to avoid being discovered.
“Don’t get me wrong, I’m just lamenting that such a good opportunity was missed.”
Finley worried about exposing herself and explained.
Jane smiled politely, leaving Finley somewhat puzzled.
