Heartstrings on Fire (Agnes and Jared)

Chapter 769

Yolanda's face showed a hint of panic, "What about the backup, don't you have it in your computer?"

A faint smile appeared on Agnes' face as she replied, "I've already quit this task, why do I need to keep

the backups? I've already formatted and deleted all the data and backups."

Yolanda was furious, "Agnes, are you deliberately against me?"

Agnes shrugged innocently, "I don't quite understand your point. Have I done something wrong?"

Yolanda couldn't say it out loud, she had a belly full of sarcasm, "Fine, Agnes, just wait and see."

Agnes didn't take it to heart.

After all these years, Agnes knew that for people like Yolanda, the more you show weakness, the more

they would bully you.

Although Agnes was not competitive, but she couldn't let others bully her. Belongs to (N)ôvel/Drama.Org.

The next day was the written examination for the selection of The Primary Perspective.

The exam went pretty well.

But the next day, when the results were announced, Agnes didn't see her name on the pass list.

Agnes found it strange. All the questions in the exam were basic questions, and she had been

preparing for it these days. Why wasn't she selected?

Ramona saw Agnes sitting despondently at her desk and leaned over to whisper, "Agnes, there's

something I think I should tell you. I saw Yolanda sneak into the office of the head of the News

Department after our exam. I took a peek and saw her take a paper from a stack of exam papers, rip it

up and throw it in the trash. I was wondering who had offended her. Now, I think the paper she

destroyed was yours."

Agnes frowned. Although Yolanda had been making things difficult for her, she didn't expect her to do

such a despicable thing.

Ramona comforted Agnes, "Agnes, I think you should quit. With your qualifications, you can do better

anywhere else. Your talent is far above Yolanda, but she has connections, and you can't fight her. It's

better to leave and start anew, rather than being suppressed by her and suffering every day."

Agnes replied, "I didn't want to fight her, but she's just too much." Then Agnes stood up and left.

Ramona shouted at her back, "Don't tell her I told you this when you confront Yolanda."

Agnes had no intention of confronting Yolanda. Instead, she went straight to the head of the News

Department. He was in charge of all the exam papers.

The head of the News Department, Judson, was over sixty and officially retired, but was rehired by the

TV station.

When Agnes was still in school, she had heard of him. He was a knowledgeable, award-winning

veteran journalist.

He was the one who proposed The Primary Perspective program.

When Agnes arrived at the director's office, he was inside.

Agnes knocked on the door. Upon hearing the words "come in", Agnes stepped in.

Judson looked up, and Agnes had already approached him.

"Sir, I'm Agnes, a reporter from the News Department."

Judson looked at Agnes with a kind face and a smile, "I've seen your resume, and I was the one who

recruited you into the News Department."

Agnes began, "Thank you for your recognition, Mr. Judson. I came today because I have a favor to

ask."
