Chapter 666

This Is Not What I Meant

Everyone looked at Gloria immediately after Darren had challenged her. Naturally, those who wanted to
flatter Darren started to side with him.

A young man who was in his early thirties looked at Gloria sharply and spoke without hesitation, “Miss
White, Darren is right. We also think that your way of handling this matter is inappropriate. During the
interview, you said that we should examine the candidates‘ personalities as well as capability. Well, we
do agree with this requirement. But today, there was a candidate who is very idiosyncratic. But you
keep that person without asking our opinions. You even agree to raise that interviewee‘s salary, which
is very inappropriate.”

The man paused deliberately before he continued, “It‘s not only disrespectful for Darren when you
made decisions without asking him, it is even a disregard when you criticized him in front of so many
people. We don‘t think it‘s Darren‘s problem.‘‘

Darren naturally had the upper hand since he had many back–ups.

After all, he was a senior leader in the company, and his capability earned him a good reputation in the
whole industry.

Besides, he was also a senior worker of the Collins Group.

Mr. Collins always kept elites in his company, let alone an excellent vice director of the human
resources department.

So that day, everyone was irritated when Darren was criticized by Gloria at the meeting.

Gloria was indeed puzzled.



She looked at the young man who was talking with puzzlement.

“I didn‘t remember when I had criticized Darren?”

What I said just now was only about how to recruit people for our plan. I didn‘t mention anything about
Darren I didn‘t even mention his name. How could he simply think I was targeting him?

Darren seemed to be sulky.But he was still putting on an air without saying anything.

The young man who supported Darren looked at Gloria directly and resumed, “Miss White, you just
said that we mustn't screen our interviewees with old beliefs, and that we should break the shackles of
conservative methods and innovate our thoughts on talents. Aren‘t you alluding that we are “old and
conservative“?”

Gloria was again puzzled. She was completely at a loss.

He really knows how to distort my words.

“This is not what I meant.” Gloria stayed calm, but her eyes were sharp with coldness.

The man frowned. “I am not trying to repeat what you said. I‘m reading what you intend to allude to
through your words. Everyone is listening here and I‘m sure they all want you to give them a proper
explanation.”

Gloria lowered her head to look down, and then she took out a recording pen.

The young man suddenly quivered.

Gloria transferred the recording into her laptop. Then, with everyone gazing at her, she found out the
exact point in the recording when she said those words and played it in front of everyone.



The voice sounded extremely clear.

“The interview is not without minor mistakes today, but anyway, it still proceeds quite smoothly. The
people we interviewed today are quite different from what we wanted in the past. Today we need
directors and leaders with experience. So we can change our methods of interviewing from those we
use for ordinary workers.”

After the recording was played, the young man looked quite uncomfortable.

Obviously, those who supported Darren had complicated looks on their faces.

As the young man brought this up, some attendees seemed to be silent as if they didn‘t remember
what happened that day, saying that they were not sure whether the young man was right. Some were
obviously misled and insisted on their bad impression of Gloria.

But then after hearing the recording…

Most of the attendees started to think that perhaps they had misunderstood Gloria.

Gloria did not care about what they thought. She just looked at the young man whose face was
distorted with embarrassment and spoke calmly.

“Did you say you have problems with what I said?”
