Divorce Failed My Wife's Secret Identities Shock the World novel Chapter 463

It wasn't until she laid it out that the room realized her wild arrogance had simply been a calculated provocation.

Promising Audrey she'd be gone in a year.

Telling Connor his professional skills needed work.

It was all just a performance.

All she wanted was to fast-track this trial so they would stop wasting her precious time.

Connor and Audrey were left utterly speechless.

But Simon's mind was snagged on a completely different detail.

He was supposed to be the predator commanding this room, yet Maeve had just effortlessly snatched the control right out of his hands, twice.

Such masterful manipulation of the room's dynamic—was this really something a twenty-year-old girl could pull off?

Maeve didn't care what was going through Simon's head.

Determined to teach her a lesson, Connor and Audrey threw together a gauntlet of impossibly hard questions.

To enter Lab C, one had to know the medical field inside and out.

Each leader selected their most notoriously difficult exam paper and slapped it in front of her.

This was standard protocol for any new hire.

But while a normal applicant would face an A-tier exam, the two papers handed to Maeve were easily S-tier.

For anyone trying to land a job at Lab C, this level of difficulty was the stuff of nightmares.

Audrey tapped her wristwatch.

"It's ten in the morning. You have exactly ninety minutes."

"Ninety minutes to complete every single question on these pages."

"If your error rate exceeds zero point one percent, you are instantly disqualified."

Maeve took the papers and briefly skimmed the text.

They were veterans in this field; forcing someone to quit was child's play for them.

Simon's expression remained entirely unreadable.

From the moment Maeve took the papers, her pen began flying across the pages.

She wrote with blinding speed, not pausing for a single second.

While she worked, Connor pulled up a chair across from Simon.

He lowered his voice. "Do you want her to stay or go?"

Simon's predatory gaze was locked onto Maeve's flawless profile.

She was a fascinating little creature. Stunning from every conceivable angle.

"Whether she stays or goes depends entirely on what she brings to the table."

He had offered her a shortcut, but she clearly had no interest in playing safe.
