CHAPTER 71: CHAPTER 71: I WON’T ATTEND

"I didn’t graduate."

July Quinn was checking the uniform’s size and found that the bust seemed somewhat unsuitable.

"Didn’t graduate? Are you kidding?" Yasmin Zane frowned.

A college student worth The Jacobs Group’s unconventional hiring?

"I’m not kidding, I really didn’t attend college."

July Quinn said seriously.

"You didn’t attend college? Then how could you have passed the interview?"

Yasmin Zane was frustrated.

If this was true, being hired by The Jacobs Group alongside her felt like the greatest insult to her, a high-achieving graduate with double master’s degrees.

"I don’t know either."

July Quinn was equally baffled.

After all, she initially only intended to play a joke on her cheap husband.

Little did she know those bizarre responses would actually lead to her unexpected hiring.

But Yasmin Zane was sure she was being toyed with: "Fine, if you don’t want to say, then don’t. No need to treat me like a fool."

Leaving those words behind, Yasmin Zane stormed off with her uniform in a huff.

July Quinn watched her angry departure, feeling helpless: "Nowadays, no one believes the truth."

The Jacobs Group, conference room—

The meeting concerning the Caelan Sea project was about to convene again.

All those attending the meeting were busy preparing their summaries, ready to report progress.

Before the meeting began, Miles Jacobs handed an invitation to Kyle Keaton.

"What’s this?"

Kyle Keaton’s fingers were still dancing on the keyboard, busy organizing some files, so he only glanced at the invitation briefly and then shifted his gaze back to Miles Jacobs.

"Next Tuesday, my father’s birthday banquet. He wants me to sincerely invite you, the big boss of the Imperial Elytron Group!"

In the end, Miles Jacobs didn’t voice the last sentence, only mouthing it.

That’s right, having been established for less than a year, the Imperial Elytron Group has been quite influential in Westmarch lately.

Especially his grand scale Caelan Sea project, which makes many suspect that the original five major aristocratic families in Westmarch might have to rearrange their rankings.

For this reason, many are eager to associate with the boss of the Imperial Elytron Group.

But frustratingly, the boss of the Imperial Elytron Group is very mysterious and low-profile, never appearing in public settings.

Even his grand Caelan Sea project, he merely dispatched a few employees to The Jacobs Group to sign contracts.

However, little do they know that this low-profile boss has always been personally overseeing the Caelan Sea project, disguised as Miles Jacobs’ assistant externally.

So this time, when Old Master Jacobs planned a birthday banquet, he had Miles Jacobs personally visit the Imperial Elytron Group to meet their boss and deliver this invitation.

Even if they couldn’t invite this mysterious boss to the banquet in person, at least they could express their family’s respect to him.

But knowing full well that Kyle Keaton is that low-profile boss, Miles Jacobs didn’t go through the tedious scheduling procedures with the Imperial Elytron Group and directly handed the invitation to Kyle Keaton.

"Understood."

Kyle Keaton quickly returned his gaze without accepting or refusing the invitation.

Miles Jacobs couldn’t pinpoint this man’s intentions, so he had to ask, "Will you be attending?"

If this man attended, he would have to prepare more thoroughly.

After all, someone’s identity is extraordinary.

But Kyle Keaton didn’t even glance back at him and simply replied, "Not attending. Please give my thanks to the old master..."

Leaving those words behind, Kyle Keaton’s eyes focused anew on the computer screen, continuing to type on the keyboard.

"I knew it would be like this." Miles Jacobs wasn’t surprised by this outcome.

Besides, even when their own Keaton Family hosted a banquet, this man might not even show up.

Let alone their Jacobs Family’s minor event.

Soon, the participants in the meeting had all arrived.

The project manager announced, "Meeting starts."

But Miles Jacobs suddenly interrupted him, "Wait, we still have two employees missing."

Kyle Keaton glanced at Miles Jacobs with some confusion, seemingly asking him, "Two employees? Aren’t we all here?"

But Miles Jacobs only gave Kyle Keaton a mysterious smile.

At this moment, the conference room door opened again.

Two female employees, wearing black short A-line skirts and pink shirts, walked in.

Seeing one of them with her picturesque facial features, Kyle Keaton couldn’t help but twitch the corner of his mouth.

July Quinn?!

How did she become a probationary employee at The Jacobs Group?
