Wayne’s laughter echoed through the room, a grin plastered on his face. “Teresa, you won’t believe this, but Jonathan gave us the go-ahead for the interview.”
Teresa’s face showed her surprise as she tried to make sense of the situation.
He patted her shoulder, his excitement palpable. “You nailed it, Teresa! You’re on fire!”
But Teresa’s voice was tinged with skepticism. “Seriously, Jonathan himself said yes?”
“Sure,” Wayne confirmed. “Mr. Lynn’s waiting in the meeting room and specifically requested you. Maybe your voice left an impression, and now he’s curious about the person behind it. Luckily, you’re stunning. We’re counting on you to make the operations team proud.”
Interviews weren’t Teresa’s usual gig, but Wayne dropped the news: if the interview went well, there was a $3,000 bonus waiting by month’s end. Hard to say no to that—a short interview for a nice payoff.
Papers in hand, Teresa strode into the office, the door creaking open to show Jonathan already seated.
“Good afternoon, Mr. Lynn,” she offered, all business.
“Ms. Johnston,” Jonathan greeted back, a casual tilt of his head and a teasing sparkle in his eyes.
For a beat, she found herself admiring his charisma and good looks—he was undoubtedly the most attractive man she’d ever encountered.
The cameraman’s cough brought her back to the present. She’d almost been caught staring, which was unprofessional, and she knew it.
Sitting down next to Jonathan on the sofa, Teresa got straight to the point. “Thanks for fitting us into your day, Mr. Lynn. We’ll keep this quick and to the point, just a few questions to make the most of our time.”
Jonathan leaned back in his chair, legs crossed, the epitome of relaxed confidence. He hummed thoughtfully, his gaze never leaving Teresa.
Teresa referred to her notes, her questions prepared and orderly. “Mr. Lynn, what prompted you to agree to this interview with us?” she asked, her voice steady and professional.
Jonathan’s eyes narrowed as he looked at Teresa. “To be honest, I was just bored,” he admitted.
