Chapter 106
It seemed they were picking up a stone and throwing it.
Children were naturally fond of playing, and it was also very easy for them to be moved by simple things. Playing with small stones could also make them feel happy.
Lily listened to the children's carefree and happy laughter. She was a little depressed.
Edwards personally helped them take bathes, and then sent Emma to Lily's room.
"Good night, Daddy!" Emma sweetly waved her hand towards Edwards.
Through the gap in the door, Edwards saw the woman sitting on the sofa. She was still drawing her script, her face serious and focused.
This woman was truly special. She had such a rich man as him, yet she didn't try to seduce him and instead wished to develop her own business.
Wasn't it for the money after all?
Of course, he only dared to let his imagination run wild in his heart, but he didn't dare to say it in front of Lily.
The next morning!
Lily came to the company as usual, but Katy was already unwilling to talk to her, just because Lily stole her limelight.
Xipil was very sensitive to this, so she moved Lily's table to the other side.
At around nine o'clock, Xipil suddenly came out of her office excitedly and clapped. "Come, everyone listen to me, it’s a happy thing."
Everyone stopped what they were doing and looked at Xipil in surprise.
Xipil quickly announced: "I just received a call from my superior, saying that in order to take care of the subordinates, the company headquarters will send a department out every month, and with the Boss Wayne personally treating us.We are very lucky, we are the first chosen department. So today at noon, everyone can put down your work and have a good meal."
Hearing this news, the entire office burst into an uproar.
Almost all the women had nervous and excited expressions on their faces.
"Oh my god, I can't believe I'm eating with Boss Wayne at the same table today."
"That's right. If I had known such a good thing
would happen today, I would have worn better clothes." "I haven't washed my hair in two days. What should I do?"
When all the women were so excited that they couldn't control themselves, Lily lowered her head, her small face a little confused.
What is this Edwards doing now? Why did he suddenly have to invite people from the office to eat? Is Edwards not handsome enough? He was young and handsome, with a good figure that could not be described with words. More importantly, he was rich!
Lily could no longer stay in this joyous office. She decided to take a walk outside to get some fresh air.
After finding a place with less people, Lily lowered her head and looked at the phone she was holding.
At this time, should she call Edwards and tell him about this?
When Lily flipped to find his number, she was a little hesitant. At this time, would that man be very busy? Is it convenient to answer the phone?
Lily was not a tyrannical and unreasonable woman, so she was cold to Edwards only because he suddenly took over her child.
Just as she was hesitating, her fingers accidentally pulled out the number.
Lily's heart skipped a beat, since she had already unplugged her phone, she could only listen.
Thankfully, after a few beeps, the man's slightly deep voice could be heard, "What is it?"
What Lily did not know was that Edwards was sitting in a huge conference room. In front of him, there were more than fifty people trembling with fear, reporting about the matters of the company.
The moment they heard the call, almost everyone's nerves tensed up. They were afraid that their phones would be turned off due to forgetting to do so.
Until...
The young man at the head of the table picked up the phone he had placed on the table and answered it in a slow and unhurried manner.
The breath that was hanging in their throats was finally relieved.
But he felt that it was unbelievable, as the Boss Wayne, for the first time, received a call from the conference room.
They remembered that when someone forgot to turn off his phone, he fired that person on the spot and set an iron-like rule. Whoever dared to answer the call in the meeting room, he would
obediently leave.
Now...
The person who broke this rule was the person who set it. Although everyone felt it was inconceivable, no one dared to make a sound.
"Did you know you're having lunch with our office staff today?" Lily asked the question directly.
"I know!" The man's reply caused her heart to sink even further.
"You know? Do you know why I didn't stop this from happening? You're here... If anyone sees that we have anything to do with each other, then the condition you promised me doesn't count. " Lily's voice could not help but increase by a few notches.
"This matter is very difficult for me as well!" Edwards raised his eyes slightly. Seeing that there were so many people in front of him, he stood up and walked towards outside in his office.
Everyone was petrified.
Edwards found a place with no people and stood still. Then, he heard the dissatisfied reply from the woman: "What are you troubled about? Aren't you the boss? You can cancel the decision, but it's just a matter of your word." Content rights by NôvelDr//ama.Org.
"Woman, you're thinking too simply. I was the one who brought up this matter, but I didn't think that the first one would be able to get into your office. If I concealed the policy in front of those shareholders, that’s bad for my prestige." Edwards said with a cold face, he had purposely said it in a serious manner, but in truth, it was just because he wanted to teach this disobedient woman a lesson.
Lily naturally didn't understand a thing about managing a company, and since Edwards had spoken in such a serious manner, it was as if everything was true. She could only bite her lip and not say anything.
"Don't worry, I will pretend not to know you." Edwards said indifferently.
"I hope you can keep your promise and not make things difficult for me." After Lily finished speaking, she hung up.
She had intended to persuade him to give up the dinner, but from his tone, it was impossible to cancel.
Noon!
In an upscale restaurant beside the company, two large tables were placed in a large private room.
Xipil led the employees of the company and stood at the entrance of the private box obediently, waiting for the owner to come over.
When they thought about how they would be able to see Edwards in a while, the group of women were so excited that their hands and feet were trembling. A few of them were pretty and the young girls even had exquisite makeup drawn on their faces, hoping to make use of this opportunity to make Edwards fall in love with her at first sight.
At around 12 o'clock, Edwards's convoy stopped outside the restaurant, and he brought a few higher-ups with him.
In order to show that this was indeed a benefit of the company, Edwards had also spent a lot of effort.
When he arrived at the entrance of the room, he saw the woman standing at the very end of the line.
Unlike other women who had shy and timid expressions, she stood there quietly, neither happy nor sad.
