Chapter 277

Quantum had super high standards for their candidates, so this year they teamed up with a few top schools in the country to cultivate these talents and inject some fresh energy into the company.

Angel was chosen as one of the spokespeople for this project and had to go spread the word at these universities. There were two reasons: one, the school she graduated from was one of Quantum’s main targets; two, she was kinda well–known among college students and had an inspiring backstory, going from being an orphan to working for Quantum. So her performance on this project was highly anticipated.

Celeste graduated in the same year, but her school’s wasn’t as distinguished as Angel’s. But there Angel was, joining Quantum and getting this cool project. This got their relatives a bit jelly.

When the folks were chatting about it, they couldn’t help but gush, “Who would’ve thought Angel would become the pride of the Campbell family? She landed such a sweet gig right after graduating!”

“Well, she’s got her dad to thank for raising her right.”

“I mean, education alone doesn’t cut it. Look at her sister. She went to a great school too, married into a rich family, and even does TV shows now.”

“Yeah, but she’s using her in–laws‘ money to make those shows.”

“Remember when Celeste got into a top university? Her mom almost couldn’t stop bragging about it! Such a shame though, that she got married and her career’s a hot mess now.”
