    “Yes, that’s him! He has been courting me for years, but I’ve never fancied him!” Josephine was


    annoyed when Xavier’s name was brought up. “How about this? I’ll exin it to Mr. and Mrs. Chance


    myself. After all, Dragon Bay is the perfect ce for retirement.”


    “That’s not necessary. My parents are happy where they are now. Besides, they have neighbors


    apanying them to pass the time. Perhaps we can talk about it sometime in the future,” Jared


    suggested.


    Josephine nodded as she picked up her bag and walked toward the door. Suddenly, she turned back


    and said, “Don’t hesitate to tell me if someone bullies you, okay? If worsees to worst, I can just fire


    Xavier.”


    “Do you think there’s anyone capable of bullying me?” Jared smiled cheekily.


    Amused by Jared’s sense of humor, Josephine left with a smile on her face. Who am I kidding? I


    watched Jared defeat Steven with my own eyes. Surely no one in thispany could bully Jared.


    Zayne rushed into the office as soon as Josephine stepped out. “Jared, what did Ms. Sullivan talk to


    you about?”


    With a cold gaze, Jared answered, “I’m not telling you.”


    Jared exited the office after that, leaving Zayne in absolute anger.


    “Hey, Jared! Just because you collected a debt, that doesn’t mean you can disrespect me! I’m your


    manager!” Zayne screamed at the top of his lungs.


    The rest of the staff gathered around Jared the moment they saw himing out. They were all


    curious about the conversation Jared had with Josephine. To their dismay, Jared kept his mouth


    zipped.


    Jared was busypiling the documents on all the debtors throughout the afternoon. He then sent the


    documents to Tommy.


    Just minutes away from getting off work, Xavier dropped by the sales department. His visit had


    unsettled the whole department because the employees were worried that he might order them to work


    overtime.


    “Hi, Mr. Jennings!” Zayne rushed to greet him.


    Xavier scanned the floor before purposefully gazing at Jared. He then said to Zayne, “Mr. Carlson, due


    to the exemry performance of your department, I’d like to buy everyone dinner. Make sure everyone


    will be there. The venue is Vintage Restaurant.”


    Xavier turned to leave after making the announcement while Zayne stood rooted to the spot.


    Surprised, Maria walked toward Zayne and asked, “Did Mr. Jennings just say he wants to buy us


    dinner? Not only that, but he alsoplimented our performance?”


    Zayne was equally startled. He nodded and wondered out loud, “What has gotten into Mr. Jennings


    today? Is he all right?”


    Truth be told, Xavier had never treated them to a meal before. Furthermore, Zayne was constantly


    lambasted for debt collection issues during corporate meetings. The former’s sudden change of


    attitude caught everyone off guard.


    “Mr. Carlson, isn’t that good news? Why are you still standing there like a lemon? Quickly let the others


    know!” Lydia was very excited upon hearing the announcement.


    “Oh! You’re right!” Zayne regained his senses and informed the others hurriedly before any of them


    leave the building. Mr. Jennings said to make sure that everyone will be there!


    “Listen up, everyone! Mr. Jennings is very pleased with our performance. Hence, he’d like to invite all of


    us for dinner. He explicitly said that everyone in our department must be there.”


    The staff started cheering upon hearing that. “Wow! Vintage Restaurant? That’s awesome!”


    “That’s one of the best restaurants in Horington! It’s as famous as mor Hotel!”


    “What’s with Mr. Jennings’ sudden act of generosity?”


    “I have to go touch up my makeup! I must look my best for Mr. Jennings!”


    Suddenly, everyone was rushing to get themselves ready for dinner. Thedies stormed the


    washrooms to freshen themselves up.
