❛ says here you’d rather i NOT contact your last employer. ❜ ben observes, glancing up from the single sheet of paper that’s been perfectly centered in the middle of his desk. the large glass panes behind him showcase some of the most beautiful buildings in the financial district of manhattan, his carefully chosen headquarters for the high-tech security company. it’s rare, that the ceo of any given business take on the task of hiring new employees, much less interviewing them. but he likes to have a certain FAMILIARITY, a relationship with each of the people who work for him, no matter how small. it keeps his head from getting too big, and usually makes them somewhat more enthusiastic about their job at solo inc.
impossibly long legs stretch themselves beneath his desk, inadvertently pushing his chair a few inches back. his gaze never leaves the girl, as if he’s collecting information merely by scanning her form. hands lay clasped in his lap, jaw twitching as he fights back a smile. she seems well adjusted, not too eager as some who come to him are. in fact, she seems like she could give a shit if she gets this job one way or another, and something about that INTRIGUES him. ❛ any reason for that? ❜
