Chapter 326 Interns Don't Get Paid

Satan brazenly countered, "Is that not allowed?"

He admitted it a little too quickly, catching her completely off guard.

She rubbed her cheek and said, "It's not exactly not allowed, it's just that... well, it's all luck of the draw. Wherever you're assigned, that's where you go. No need to force it."

At that moment, Emyr had finished playing with her earlobe. Now bored, his fingers absentmindedly trailed near Charmaine's temple.

As he brushed against her silky hair, an unexpected sense of delight filled him.

"Even if I didn't come along, you'd still be picked by the Cross Group through random selection, so my presence changed nothing."

Charmaine felt slightly lightheaded from his words.

It seemed like he was spouting nonsense in a completely serious tone. "Moreover..."

Lowering his gaze slightly, he locked eyes with her. "Isn't this the present you asked for?"

Charmaine instantly lost her cool, shoving him away as she straightened her posture. "When did I ever ask for such a thing?"

Emyr squinted, took out his phone, and pulled up their conversation from that morning.

Pointing to the message that read "Just this word?", he had solid proof.

Charmaine was dumbfounded, her frustration almost bringing her to tears. "So when you said you understood, this is what you meant?"

Noticing her displeasure with the gift, Emyr frowned. "Then what do you actually want?"

Charmaine threw her hands in frustration. "Look, just now, you said you were going back to give Tad a raise. You can compliment him so easily, but what about me? What about me?"noveldrama

She had made it painfully obvious. Shouldn't he get it by now?

Seeing her hopeful, expectant gaze, Emyr finally understood.

But at the same time, his expression darkened, and his jaw clenched in irritation. "So all you want is money?"

Charmaine reasoned, "Money is a wonderful thing! Besides, I already owe you so much. I might not even be able to pay it all back in this lifetime!"

Emyr let out a knowing chuckle. "Then just take your time repaying it. I'm in no rush."

Charmaine remained silent.

How kind of you to be so patient.

Chapter 326 Interns Don't Get Paid

After a brief pause, Emyr added, "But if you want to settle the debt faster, there is a way?

Charmaine's eyes sparkled with excitement. "Really? Does the intern salary pay well?

Emyr gave her cheek a firm pinch. "Did no one tell you? Interns don't get paid "What? No salary at all?"

It felt like her whole world was collapsing

Finished

Seeing her miserable expression, Emyr couldn't help but laugh, his earlier annoyance completely forgotten.

"Cross Group has never partnered with any university for an internship program before, this is the first time. You should know that even as an intern, Cross Group is fully committed to helping you develop your skills and assigning you to real projects"

He explained patiently, "Interns won't receive a base salary, but if you contribute to a project and achieve results, you'll earn performance-based bonuses"

After a brief pause, he gently reminded her, “The internship spans three months. The project preparation at Cross Group will take roughly two months, and if everything proceeds smoothly, the execution could wrap up within a month. The initial investment for collaboration is in the tens of millions, and project team members receive bonuses ranging from 0.5% to 30%, distributed based on individual contributions."

Charmaine's previously dull eyes lit up with excitement.

"So, that means I'd be making at least 50,000 each time?"

If she put in extra effort, earning even more wouldn't be a challenge.

Charmaine was fully confident in her own capabilities.

Observing her, he found her expression amusing-like a small squirrel standing beneath a tree brimming with ripe fruit, eyes darting around mischievously as she plotted her next move. His gaze softened, flickering with amusement.

Leaning in slightly, he lowered his voice to a tantalizing murmur, "There's another way to boost your earnings. Are you interested?"

Without a second thought, Charmaine nodded eagerly, eyes gleaming. "What is it?"

A slow, enticing smile spread across his flawlessly sculpted face. "Work by my side as my special assistant. That way, you'll receive bonuses for every project I oversee."

He elaborated further, offering a subtle hint, "I manage at least ten projects from different departments each week."

Fifty thousand per project. Ten a week. Four weeks per month. Three months of internship ...

Charmaine gulped, as if she were witnessing Satan himself seated in the office, endlessly pouring out gold coins.

The offer was simply too alluring!

Who could possibly say no to that?
