Chapter 485
Considering ScholarLoan still retained explicit photos and videos of Zadie, Carlisle understood that such loan scams wouldn't come to an end so easily. Even if Zadie had settled her debts, ScholarLoan might have refused to delete those photos and videos to continue blackmailing her for money.
Carlisle felt it was time to ask Wade to intervene and handle the matter.
"Daniel, please take Zadie to Arthur and have him take you both to Wade."
"I'm on it!" Daniel promptly replied.
He knew who Wade was. With Wade and his team involved, unless ScholarLoan was owned by Jalen Holder or Titan Lynch, he believed Zadie's issues would be resolved quickly.
After Daniel and Zadie left the office, Carlisle reviewed the résumés of the three legal advisors.
Lilian Zeller, 29, graduated from Yorksle Law University. With seven years of industry experience, she served as Senior Director of the legal advisor department at Wick Group for four years, indicating that she achieved the senior director position just three years after graduating.
Anthony left a note in the remarks column demonstrating she was an exceptional attorney.
Considering Lilian was a former employee of Wick Group, Carlisle understood she was likely recruited by Anthony from his previous employer.
Although persuading a coworker, especially one at the senior director level, to switch jobs together might not seem ethical, Carlisle was nevertheless impressed. He felt he had made a shrewd bargain decision in hiring Anthony with an annual salary offer of 500 thousand dollars.
The other two legal advisors were equally impressive too.
Zuri Summer, aged 33, was a top lawyer from a prestigious law firm.
Yasmin Crane was 32 years old and managed a listed company's legal advisor department. She specialized in corporate and labor law.Original from NôvelDrama.Org.
Carlisle assumed Zuri and Yasmin were classmates from their graduation years at Mocuwait Law University.
As Carlisle reviewed the résumés, Lilian and Yasmin exuded confidence, while Zuri appeared to be on edge. Her previous law firm specialized in social cases, leaving her with limited experience in corporate matters.
"All of you are impressive!" Carlisle remarked, setting down the résumés.
He then instructed Anthony, "Get them to familiarize themselves with our company."
Anthony nodded, then turned to the ladies.
He smiled and said, "Please wait for me outside. I'll be with you shortly."
After the three left the office, Zuri let out a sigh and patted her chest, saying, "Yasmin, this chairman sure is intimidating."
She was taken aback by Carlisle's assertive attitude toward Carlos earlier.
Yasmin smiled casually.
"He needs that kind of charisma to become chairman at such a young age."
In fact, Yasmin herself was surprised to find a teenager as the chairman of Aurora Holdings. She had expected the chairman to be a man in his 30s, if not 50s.
Zuri said anxiously, "This is frustrating. I don't think I'll get the job after all."
After all, lawyers and legal advisors were two completely different roles. While lawyers were licensed legal professionals who served a broad group of clients, legal advisors provided internal advice exclusively for the corporation they work for, prioritizing corporate legal affairs with business goals.
Having never worked in a corporate environment before, Zuri worried if she was fit for the position at Aurora Holdings.
With a gentle smile, Yasmin reassured her, "Don't worry. Aurora Holdings needs manpower now. You saw it just now, too. The chairman even intervened in his employee Carlos' child custody matters, which means he will not only need internal legal advisors but also lawyers to handle other affairs."
With Yasmin's assurance, Zuri breathed a sigh of relief. The rapid proliferation of law firms led to the competition in the industry becoming increasingly intense.
