Office Romance with a Werewolf - Chapter 93

“Why? Do you prefer altering Nida’s memories instead? Okay! Let’s go without disguising!” Wendell changed directions and headed toward the HR building.

“No! No! That’s risky! ”

“Risky?”

“I actually don’t want Nida to see me.” Randell was timid.

After all the mental and physical trauma Nida probably experienced, he actually doesn’t have the confidence to face Nida yet.

Wendell scoffed at him, and he internally enjoyed watching Randell act timid. He wished Ranz would be like this too.

He knew that Ranz’s weakness was Nida and was planning to mess with him today, but seeing Randell instead of Ranz was making him feel excited and looking forward to their reunion.

“Okay? So you don’t want to disguise it? You don’t want to meet her personally as well? Then you’re not coming then? ”

“No! I want to meet her. ” He said, with a low voice.

Wendell just smiled and guided him again to where his calling a friend was working.

Knock, knock, knock,

“Mr. President, what brought you here?” A bald and fat man greeted them.

“Where is Ms. Athena?”

“Oh, it’s break time. She’s in the pantry. I’ll call her right away.” The fat man didn’t wait for Wendell’s response and hurriedly went inside the pantry, where seconds later he went out with Athena, the friend that Wendell was talking about.

There’s nothing special about her since she looks like an average middle-aged office worker, and her clothes and entire appearance were all plain and tacky.

“Sir, I’ll be borrowing her for a while.”

“Oh, okay. Don’t worry.”

Wendell, Randell, and Athena silently went out of the department office and walked silently toward Wendell’s office.

The three were silent the whole time, which made Randell wonder what the agonizing silence was all about.

Wendell just picked up Athena without saying anything else, and she just followed them without asking.

Click!

Boom!

Bang!

In an instant, the moment they all entered the room, with the one click of the door’s lock, Wendell was sent flying.

He was stuck on the ceiling for a moment, then another wind struck him and he was sent back to the floor.

“Wife! It will cost us money again for repairs.” Wendell exclaimed as he got up from the floor with messy hair, but he was not injured at all.

“I told you, don’t bother me when I am out playing!”

“I’m going to play as well, but I’ll have to disguise myself!”

“Oh, you’re going to play? Let me join! ”

Suddenly, the two had the same energy, and they got excited talking about “play.”

“Nah, Randell and I will play.”

“Randell?” The girl, called Athena, leant forward to Randell and observed him closely.

“This is not Ranz.”

“He isn’t.”

“Really?” The Athena girl snapped her finger and suddenly her appearance changed from tacky to beautiful.

Actually, It was Angel who was disguising as Athena so she could play around inside the CTC.

“Hi, I am Angel, wife of Wendell. I hope you won’t desire to steal Wendell’s position, or else I’ll gut you. ”

She threatened Randell with her benign smile.

Randell just swallowed his saliva and nodded his head.

“I won’t join you. I don’t want to play with someone I don’t know.” Angel said as she walked closer to Wendell, and then he showered her with kisses as a reply.

“What disguise are you changing into?”

“Some HR personnel.”

“Oh okay, is it fine with the encoder and assistant?”

“No, we need someone who can do the interview.”

“Then managers?”

“Yes.”

The couple kisses for the last time before Angel changes their appearance.

Wendell became a middle-aged lady while Randell became a middle-aged man.

“Take note that it will lose effect after an hour.”

“Okay!”

Angel left the room while Wendell was doing something on his computer for a moment.

Randell waited for him for a moment, then after they walked straight to a woman’s bathroom.

“Wait, what are you doing?” Randell stopped him because it was not right for him to enter a ladies’ comfort room just because he was disguising a lady’s appearance.

“I am not here to peek. This lady went inside this bathroom. I am going to knock her off so that I can attend as her.”

Randell feels bad about what they are doing but still lets Wendell do what he wants.

“Done!” Wendell brushed off his hand after walking out of the comfort room, as if he hadn’t done anything unusual.

“Next is that guy.”

Wendell and Randell followed the guy that Randell was in disguise as well, knocked him off, and hid him inside the pantry.

“You’re good at this.” Wendell gives him a compliment that he doesn’t like to receive.

They then finally reached the room to interview the applicants.

A few sets of interviewees came first before Nida came.

“Introduce yourself,” one of the panel interviewers other than Nida instructed Nida.

“I am Nida Mildea, 25, a graduate of Business Management. Single. ” She plainly introduced herself. Which is not the type of enthusiastic interviewee who should introduce themselves. Even though Randell wasn’t HR personnel, he knew that the way Nida introduced herself would not attract any employer’s interest.

“Can you tell me more about yourself?” The interviewer patiently asked her to, even though she was totally bland and obviously looking very nervous.

“I am single and haven’t applied for administrative work yet. This is my first time, so I hope you can still accept me.”

“This is your first time? But it says you graduated three years ago.”

“Yes, sir.”

“No nida, you should answer more with details, not just say yes plainly.” Rendell said internally as he became frustrated with Nida’s interview response. He thought she would definitely not be accepted with the way she performed at the interview.

“Then what have you been doing for three years?”

“N-nothing in particular, I have some online jobs.”

“Online jobs?”

“Like encoding and answering marketing calls.”

“Oh, okay, so you are literally a beginner. Okay,” The interviewer was about to end Nida’s interview to ask another applicant, but Wendell interjected and asked her a very personal question that had nothing to do with the job she was applying for, but the others had nothing to say because Wendell was posing as the HR manager.

“Did you go to San Antonio High School? I heard it was attacked by a wild wolf decades ago. I’m wondering if you were there at the time.”

Nida paused for a moment, and fear was visibly shown in her eyes the moment she was reminded of the attack.

“Yes, I was there when the wolf attacked.”

“I was curious about that incident. Can you tell what happened?”

Randell wanted to shove Wendell out of his chair because it’s obvious that Nida is having a hard time recalling a traumatic experience, but Wendell keeps his curiosity as it is.

“I was with my boyfriend when the attack happened. I was severely injured, but luckily I survived. My boyfriend and some of the students inside the campus weren’t lucky enough to survive the attack; they were brutally killed by the wolves.” Nida spoke with trembling hands, wondering if it was appropriate to ask such a question during an interview. It’s her first time, so she could not tell and just honestly respond with the publicly accepted truth and not the version of the truth that she know. She doesn’t want to be scorned even here, far from her hometown.

“Your boyfriend died? Oh, no!I am sorry to hear that.” Wendell said with a smile toward Randell. With a look in his eyes as if telling him, “See, she can’t remember.”

“After the attack, how was your life?”

“It’s hard to move on from such a traumatic incident, but with the right treatment, I am fine now, sir.”

Randell remained silent while holding up his emotions to show up. He felt bad for Nida and didn’t know how he could make up to her, or if he still had the right to come close to her.

The interview ended well, and they needed to leave as well, because the disguise spell would be worn out soon.

“Maam! Maybe you approved this paper wrong! ” An HR assistant hurriedly went after them at the door before they could leave.

“What did I approve of wrong?” Wendell asked as he checked the document that the assistant was showing. These are actually the application papers for Nida.

“Oh! There’s no mistaking it. Let’s hire her. ”

“But she did worse in her interview.” The assistant strongly disapproves of Nida’s acceptance. He thought hiring underqualified applicants would get them more work at training.

“Look at her father’s name.” Wendell pointed at the personal information written on the document, and the applicant gasped.

“Her father has such a big name, but why is she so unskilled if her father is this big?”

“Who knows? Just accept her in the least important position. ”

“Yes Maam!”

The assistant left them.

“Why? What’s with Nida’s father? ” Randell was curious, and Wendell didn’t answer him and just started running, which made Randell follow him.

“Hey! Why are you running? Aren’t you going to answer me? ”

“We need to hurry! The spell is going off!”
