Heartstrings on Fire novel Chapter 770

Judson began, "Speak your mind, Agnes. If I can help, I'll do everything I can."

Judson had always been someone who valued talent. When he first saw Agnes' resume, he felt it was a waste for someone of her caliber to be just a small reporter in the News Department.

He remembered her interview well, when she had spoken about her passion for journalism, not for the money or the status, much like he had been when he was younger.

He had been impressed with Agnes from that moment.

Agnes spoke up, "I recently took part in a written test for a field reporter position but didn't pass. I understand that I may have been lacking in some areas. However, I was hoping you could show me my test paper so I can identify my weaknesses and strive to improve."

Judson nodded, "It's rare to see someone as motivated as you. Most people either wallow in self-pity or resign themselves to defeat when they fail. But not you. You're one of the few who recognize their shortcomings and push themselves to grow."

Agnes replied, "Knowing the problem is the first step to solving it. Thank you for understanding, sir."

Judson said, "These papers are usually not disclosed, but since the results are already finalized, I'll make an exception for you."

With that, he stood up and retrieved a set of keys from his desk and unlocked a nearby filing cabinet to retrieve a stack of papers.

He told Agnes, "Find your paper and show me where you went wrong."

Agnes rummaged through the stack of papers on Judson's desk, feigning confusion after going through the stack twice.

"Mr. Judson," she finally said, "I can't find my test paper."
