"Mintellect?" 

From Thug to Idol: Transmigrating to a Survival Show

Fantasy · SandKastle

Ethan stared deep into Avery's eyes for a moment, and then his next line of words, sent Avery into panic mode. "I knew you looked a bit familiar, but I just couldn't place it. But now, looking at you up-close, I know who you are."

The room went eerily silent as they found themselves in an unintentional embrace. As if this wasn't bad enough, Avery's glasses too had fallen off her face, revealing her eyes.

As she stumbled, and was about to fall, her instinctive reflex kicked in, causing her to grab onto anything for support. Unfortunately for Ethan, he happened to be the closest object in her line of sight. So with a forceful tug, Avery pulled on Ethan's tie, dragging him down with her, as they both tumbled to the ground.

"I also don't want to do anything I'll regret, so please just hear me out!" Avery unintentionally shouted, so her voice came out sounding a little peachy, and girly.

"Young man, let's not do anything we would regret, alright?" Ethan said after he recovered from his shock. His tone made it loud and clear that he was threatening her.

"I see you don't want to leave." Ethan said and then he reached for the desk phone to make a call, but before he could reach it, Avery had already grabbed it. He looked up at her in shock, but she didn't even look apologetic.

What else did he want from her? She acknowledged the fact that she was late, and she apologized for that, but apparently, he seemed to have a problem with the word 'sorry'. Did he want her to give an 'I don't care' attitude instead? Avery felt frustration like she had never felt before in her life. She wanted to pull against her hair to ease her frustration a little, but that would only expose the fact that she was wearing a wig.

His touch felt a scalding iron searing through her skin, and time seemed to stand still as a surge of electricity coursed through her, leaving her monumentally frozen in shock, but it all died down when she looked up at him, and saw him glaring at her.

With the way things were going, it was most likely that she wasn't going to get the job. Avery began to panic as her desperation kicked in. "Please, sir, I assure you that none of those will happen. Just give me a chance, and check out my portfolio. I promise you won't regret it." She pleaded as she put a folder which contained Owen's portfolio on Ethan's desk.

"You are sorry? It's only just the day of your interview, and you are already saying sorry? Then let's say I hire you, how can I be sure i wouldn't hear the word 'sorry' very often from you. Today, it is I'm sorry I came late for the interview, then tomorrow, it might be, I'm sorry I made a mistake with the programming for the game, or I'm sorry sir, I made a mistake with the game testing."

Ethan's face grew dark, as he heard what she had said, and Avery began to worry. Had she said something wrong? She then remembered that she was more than an hour late, so she quickly said, "Please don't be mad at Mr. Williams. I explained the reason why I was late to him, and he took compassion on me, and allowed me to come see you. I know it's unprofessional to be late, and I'm really sorry."

Avery was thankful for the strict way he had asked her that question, as it was enough to make her snap out of her monumental weakness.

As their eyes met, time seemed to stand still for a moment. Avery thought she had prepared herself for this moment, but it was easier said than done. His sharp jawline, piercing eyes, and well-groomed appearance easily yielded an irresistible charm. The man was typically a living temptation.

Avery's eyes which had been traveling everywhere in the office, finally landed on the man she had been avoiding eye contact with, since she got into the office. He was sitting behind his desk, seemingly engrossed in his work. He had a focused and serious expression on his face, as his fingers rhythmically tapped on the keyboard of his laptop.

"Easy fix, you can just wear glasses." Madeline said before handing over a chest binder to Avery. "Your chest is already so close to being flat, so all you have to do is to wear this, before you then wear one of Owen's presentable suit. Go go go! Time is running out."

Avery nodded in approval at her image in the mirror, but then she said, "I'm still a little worried about my eyes though. Even if I and Owen have the same eye color, my own is still so unique, and my 'boss to be' might find it a little familiar."
