Chapter 555 Wow, It's Luke Crawford, the Rising Star of A City!
Julie noticed that Bianca was watching Luke make his speech. She leaned over and asked, "What are you watching, Bianca?"
When she saw the handsand gentlemanly Luke on the screen, her face lit up with admiration. "Wow, it's Luke Crawford, the rising star of A City! He's so handsome! That man is my idol. He has developed T Corporation from the ground up. That's a miraculous feat! My dream is to work in T Corporation as a regular wage-earner! Do you want to work at T Corporation too, Bianca? We should do our best in this test, get our architect certification, and apply to T Corporation! How about that?"
Bianca could not stand Julie's chatter.
She seemed like a lady when she kept her mouth shut, but once she started speaking, she was like a twittering sparrow.
"Madam is already..."
Sean wanted to explain on Bianca's behalf, but Bianca shot a glance at him.
"I hope that we'll pass with flying colors," Bianca said.
Julie nodded. She wanted to continue watching her idol on Bianca's phone, but Bianca had already closed the page.
"Why did you turn off the video, Bianca?" She said disappointedly.
Bianca looked at her watch and stood up. "It's almost time, and we should enter the venue early. Where is your classroom?" "302, Block D. How about you?"
Bianca was surprised. "We're at the splace." "What a coincidence!” Julie exclaimed excitedly. "Looks like we're fated to be friends. I'm at seat number 5. How about you?" "I'm at number 16," Bianca replied.
Julie took Bianca's hand and prepared to head to the venue. "Let's go together then! I'm so happy to have found a friend here. I thought I'd be alone."
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtBianca did not want to throw cold water on Julie's enthusiasm. She said apologetically to Sean, "Non- candidates can't enter the venue, and the tests will take stime. Could you wait outside for a while? You can leave if you have sother business, or you can stroll around the place. I'll give you a call when I'm done..." "Alright," Sean replied.
Bianca and Julie walked along a path that cut through the vast college.
Many candidates were walking hurriedly in the sdirection.
Julie discreetly protected Bianca so that the other candidates would not bump into her.
Bianca was quite moved by that gesture.
Julie spoke as she walked forward. "We shouldn't panic during the test, Bianca. We should complete the easier questions first, then move on to the harder ones. We don't have much tto waste." "I know,’ Bianca said with a smile.
At that moment, Bianca's phone started ringing. She saw that it was from Luke and instantly answered it. "Hello..." 'Isn't that man giving a speech now? How did he have the tto call her?'
The man seemed to guess Bianca's thoughts and explained to her in his resonant voice, "It's almost tfor the test, and I guessed that you're heading to the venue now. I took a short break to call you. Do your best, Bianca. I believe in you!"
Bianca smiled genuinely. "Alright."
After she ended the call, Julie asked curiously, ' Did your husband call you?"
Bianca smiled shyly.
Luke was not her husband yet, but she did not want to explain that she was pregnant before she was married. So, she nodded.
"Your husband is so nice to you," Julie said with sadmiration.
She could guess that Bianca's husband was rich and influential.
However, she considered the fact that many young and beautiful girls made rich tycoons their sugar daddies. Perhaps Bianca was married to a rich but ugly person.
After all, it was rare for a man to be both rich and handsome, not to mention that women would be flocking to them. She did not believe that Bianca would be lucky enough to marry a man who was both rich and handsome.
She felt a little better after arriving at that conclusion. 2
In any case, she could tell that Bianca's husband was someone influential. If she could be good friends with Bianca, it would eventually help her in her career.
Instantly, she becfriendlier toward Bianca.
Bianca felt uneasy about how eager Julie was to please her.
She was grateful that Julie was shielding her from the other candidates with her elbows, so she did not say anything.
Soon, they arrived outside Classroom 302.
Two male invigilators were standing outside.
One of them was supervising the candidates as they placed their belongings outside. The other was pointing a scanner at the candidates entering the classroom.
A long table was placed outside the classroom for the candidates to put their belongings.
Anything that they did not need during the test had to be placed there.
Bianca put her notes and her phone in her handbag, then placed her handbag next to Julie's.
Then, she and Julie entered the classroom together.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmAn invigilator scanned Bianca's body and confirmed that she did not bring any cheating tools before allowing her in.
Bianca sat at her assigned seat and waited for the start of the test.
She inadvertently glanced at the entrance of the classroom. Suddenly, she noticed Bella, her design department lead, appear there.
Bianca was surprised. She did not expect to see Bella at the venue.
Many classrooms were used for the test. It was too big of a coincidence that she and Bella were assigned to the sclassroom.
Bianca and Bella exchanged glances, though they carried different expressions. One of them was surprised, while the other was impassive.
She was reminded of how Bella was always picking on her in the company. She bit her lip, wondering why her department lead seemed to have a grudge against her.
However, that was not important for now. Bianca looked away and inspected her stationery.
Bella placed her handbag on the table outside.
Suddenly, she noticed the little white bear toy on Bianca's handbag.
Bella recognized it very well. Bianca had brought the handbag to work every day.
She was very sure that the handbag belonged to Bianca because of the unique shape of the toy.
'How tacky!' She thought.
She discreetly pulled open the zipper to Bianca's handbag when no one was looking.
She rummaged through her handbag quickly and pulled out a note. Then, she discreetly closed the zipper...
Bella's movements were quick, and the other candidates were in a rush to enter the classroom anyway. No one noticed what she did.
The atmosphere in the classroom was tense. Bianca felt as though she was back in high school. She had to be alert to face the coming test.
Bella sat on the seat behind Bianca.
