Chapter 117 

Honestly, bring recognized as Mrs. Linden was both embarassing and infuriating. No one in this world hated the word “Mrs. Linden“ more than I did. 

I felt like an identity being imposed on me–a title that everyone seemed determined to label me with despite my lack of memory of it. Along with it came judgment and disdain, none of

I pursed my lips, not intending to say anything to this woman.

“Oh, so you’re Mrs. Linden. Forgive me–I didn’t recognize you at first What brings you here? Didn’t Mr. Linden come with you?” 

Her questioning felt accusatory, and I had no intention of humoring it. I simply wanted Teri to finish her interview quickly so we could leave.

Ms. Spencer scoffed at her confidence, pausing for a moment before replying, “Our recruitment process has three rounds. If you’ve only passed the first, there are still two more to go.
