Chapter 1204 You’re Tired

Silence fell upon the room. These people didn't even poss the triol. The triol wos just o formolity. They bought their

woy in, ond if they were to toke o true triol, they'd oll foil.

One of the bolder ones questioned, "They took our money! How will you deol with thot? You con't just kick us out

ofter toking our money."

Nicole looked ot the mon shorply. Then, she drowled longuidly, "Toke your comploint to them, not me."

"I gove them my money becouse they soid they would toke me in. You're going to deny responsibility becouse

you're the new odministrotion? Thot's froud!"

"Yeoh, this is o scom."

"Ms. Feuer soid she would use the money to better the bose, ond now you're kicking us out ofter you took our

money?"

Nicole let them comploin for o while longer, ofter which she sneered. "She lined her pockets with the money you

gove her. If you hove ony grievonces, toke them to court. I'll tell the cops to show you the occounts ond how she

octuolly spent the money."

Everyone shut up right then.

"The test will be held in three doys. Poss, ond you moy stoy in the bose. Everyone else will hove to leove." She left

without onother word.

Silence fell upon the room. These people didn't even pass the trial. The trial was just a formality. They bought their

way in, and if they were to take a true trial, they'd all fail.

One of the bolder ones questioned, "They took our money! How will you deal with that? You can't just kick us out

after taking our money."

Nicole looked at the man sharply. Then, she drawled languidly, "Take your complaint to them, not me."

"I gave them my money because they said they would take me in. You're going to deny responsibility because

you're the new administration? That's fraud!"

"Yeah, this is a scam."

"Ms. Feuer said she would use the money to better the base, and now you're kicking us out after you took our

money?"

Nicole let them complain for a while longer, after which she sneered. "She lined her pockets with the money you

gave her. If you have any grievances, take them to court. I'll tell the cops to show you the accounts and how she

actually spent the money."

Everyone shut up right then.

"The test will be held in three days. Pass, and you may stay in the base. Everyone else will have to leave." She left

without another word.

Thanks to what she did, one-third of the staff members were cleaned out, and Nicole told the other members to

start the recruitment process. She came up with the announcement herself, but considering the bribery and

rampant corruption that happened before this, she added, 'No insider tip, no bribery, no corruption. Cold, hard skills

and meritocracy is the name of the game.'

Everyone scoffed at the recruitment poster, but when the news of Gina getting arrested made the rounds, they

changed their minds a little. When they were told that the base's admin was Nicole herself, everyone was whipped

into a frenzy.

Nicole stirred up a storm in this city once, and everyone knew her. If she was the one who took over, then perhaps

the base did have a chance to change. The netizens' mood soared, and those who were interested in joining the

base saw a sliver of hope for a better future.

Under Gina's leadership, the base's reputation turned into one of infamy. Everyone and their mother knew that

money was the name of the game when Gina was at the helm. Anyone could buy their way through and purchase a

position for themselves.

Nonetheless, things might actually change under Nicole's regime, and the people who had that idea wished to try

their luck once more. The registration list was filled up in no time, and the system crashed.

It was late at night when everything was settled. An exhausted Nicole leaned on the back of her bed. She was too

tired to even huff as she massaged her sore eyes. Once I deal with the base's business, I can start treating Colton's

amnesia.

She closed her eyes and was about to sleep, but someone opened the door. Her eyes snapped open, and she

looked at the doorway cautiously. A tall, slender figure stood outside. It was Colton.

The cautious look melted away. She rubbed her eyes and slowly got out of bed as she asked hoarsely, "What's

wrong?"

Colton looked at her and her listlessness made his heart ache. He stared into her eyes and slowly said, "You're

exhausted."

Nicole smiled dryly. She came to the base to deal with his case, so she didn't waste any time cutting through the

more trivial matters. Besides, she sat before the computer for the whole day, scrolling through the files. Everything

around her was spinning right now. "Yeah, a bit," she rasped.
