A month later, Sabrina's certification into the vacancy went through.

On her first official day, she sent me a photo of her employee badge.

"Thank you."

I replied, "You earned this yourself."

I heard about what happened to Bryce afterward from our old high-school classmates.

His appointment was permanently withdrawn.

A job he'd already lined up fell through too, once word got out that his dad was under investigation.

Everyone who used to hover around the Calloways scattered.

  • The Eleventh Candidate   Chapter 10

    A month later, Sabrina's certification into the vacancy went through.On her first official day, she sent me a photo of her employee badge."Thank you."I replied, "You earned this yourself."I heard about what happened to Bryce afterward from our old high-school classmates.His appointment was permanently withdrawn.A job he'd already lined up fell through too, once word got out that his dad was under investigation.Everyone who used to hover around the Calloways scattered.After Raymond was removed from office, he chewed Bryce out in front of the whole family."I wasted my whole life cleaning up your messes!"The most ironic part was Olivia.She used to fawn over Raymond every chance she got, but the moment the Calloways got into trouble, she ran faster than anyone.Bryce went to her workplace to confront her, and the two of them had a fight in the parking lot that everyone heard about.In tears, he asked her, "Didn't you say you were going to marry me?"All Olivia said

  • The Eleventh Candidate   Chapter 9

    Bryce's essay quickly spread online and kept gaining traction.Some people took his side."Holding a grudge over high-school horseplay for six years?""He already got his own job and still had to drag someone else down. That's pretty ruthless."Others came to my account to attack me."Taking revenge on a romantic rival over a woman. Disgusting.""Seriously, don't you know how hard it is to land a government job? Live and let live!"I didn't reply. I just saved the screenshots.Half an hour later, Sabrina posted a public statement under her full name.She shared only three things.First, our entire chat history. From the moment I handed her the evidence to when she decided to file the complaint herself, not a single word was left out.Second, the date her complaint was received. It was before I found out Olivia was cheating.Third, the full recording of Bryce offering her ten thousand dollars to withdraw the complaint, and threatening her.The comment section went silent.

    The recording kept going.Sabrina said, "I don't want your money."Bryce's voice instantly turned cold."Think carefully. Even if you get in as a replacement, you'll just be a rookie. My dad knows more people than you can imagine. If you really want to burn every bridge, you'll have plenty of chances to regret it."The recording ended.The room was so quiet you could've heard a pin drop.Bryce's face was ashen."It's fake! She edited it!"Sabrina handed her phone straight over."The original file is right here, with the time and location. I made a backup too."The staff member didn't argue with Bryce. He just told him to stay behind and cooperate with further verification.When I walked out of the building, Olivia was somehow still at the entrance.She was holding a pair of designer dress shoes.The moment she saw me, she hurried over."Luke. I've been waiting for you for two hours."I looked at the shoes and suddenly remembered a few days ago, when she'd asked me, "Did

    At two in the afternoon, I went back to the agency.Bryce was already sitting in the interview room.Several printed chat screenshots lay on the table.When he saw me, a flash of smugness crossed his eyes.The staff member slid the documents in front of me."It has been brought to our attention that while your offer was pending, you acted on a personal grudge and actively instigated rejected candidates to file complaints against a competitor. There's also a report that you secretly recorded someone's private life and used it to threaten them."I looked down.The screenshots were real.But they'd been cropped.All that was left was one line of mine: "If he's disqualified, you're number ten."Everything before and after it was gone.The hotel picture had been cropped too, showing only me standing in the doorway, holding up my phone.Bryce's eyes were red."I admit we had problems in high school. But to get revenge on me, he went to the eleventh-place candidate and set up the

  • The Eleventh Candidate   Chapter 6

    Bryce stared at my phone as if he'd figured something out."The eleventh-place candidate?"I didn't confirm it, but I didn't deny it either.He lost it."You gave her the evidence, didn't you? Luke, you already got in yourself! Why'd you have to ruin my shot?"I almost laughed out loud."Did I make you corner me in a bathroom, dump filth on me, and film it? Because that's what ruined your shot."His face went red, then pale.Right then, Mom grabbed my arm."Luke, let it go. We're all from the same town. Don't blow this up and ruin someone's future!"Those words again.Six years ago, it was "let it go."Six years later, it was still "let it go."She lowered her voice."You passed anyway. You even came in first. And you're not taking Bryce's position. Can't you just tell them that what happened back then wasn't that serious, so he can keep his job?"I looked at her, my gaze turning cold."Mom! So as long as I'm the one getting hurt, everything can just be let go?"Her li

  • The Eleventh Candidate   Chapter 5

    The staff member opened the file."After review, the evidence in the complaint has been verified. During high school, Bryce Calloway repeatedly bullied a classmate, secretly filmed it, and distributed the videos."Bryce's face slowly drained of color."So what?""Upon review, we have decided to rescind your job offer. You no longer need to report for onboarding."Everything went quiet.Olivia, who'd been blocking my way only moments ago, dropped one of the documents in her hands with a smack.Mom blurted out, "That's impossible!"She rushed over."Sir, there must be some mistake! Bryce never got disciplined in high school. The school even confirmed it was just a conflict between students!"The staff member frowned."No disciplinary record doesn't mean it didn't happen. And our review found that the statements provided by the school and some of the people involved clearly contradict the original evidence."Mom's face went rigid.After all, the statement saying there'd been
