    Gossip Girl


    “The weather’s been cold and drytely, so I got you a limited-edition hand cream.” Larry passed


    Delh a bottle of hand cream on a nearby table.


    “Ah, Larry, this is such an expensive gift,” Delh muttered as she looked at the hand cream.


    Joan eyed Delh and Larry in displeasure.


    Larry reached out and caught Joan’s hand in a reassuring grip as if tofort her.


    “Are you sure this is for me?” Delh lifted her head and asked.


    “Of course.” He shrugged.


    Delh left the living room with the hand cream.


    Joan was stewing in jealousy as she ate her breakfast in silence.


    “There, this one’s for you.” Larry produced a small gift box from his pocket and passed it to Joan.


    Joan knew this was a precious gift judging by its intricate packaging.


    “Larry, why are you suddenly getting presents for Ms. Young and me?” she asked gently as she gazed


    at him.

    “I just felt like it.” He smiled.


    I guess that’s how a rich man thinks.


    After breakfast, Larry left for the Norton Corporation. Joan went to the photography studio while Delh


    was still admiring her present in glee.


    The other staff members had arrived at the photography studio earlier in the day. No one waste


    despitest night’s drinking session.


    “Joan?” Abigail greeted her.


    Abigail’s chirpy mood instantly put Joan on guard. She merely nodded at her in reply.


    “So Joan, what’s up with you and Mr. Owensst night?” Joan’s cold attitude did nothing to deter


    Abigail.


    Oh god. What sordid scenario is she imagining?


    “Get back to work,” Joan ordered.


    “Joan, there’s nothing to be shy about. We’re all adults; you don’t have to be so serious all the time,”


    she goaded.


    “Plus, both of you are single. I personally think you two are a great match-”


    “If you’re not getting back to work, you can submit your resignation,” Joan interrupted sternly.


    This shocked Abigail, who left without a single word.


    She gossips too much! Joan sighed in relief at her departure.


    Who knew a simple gathering would turn into a matchmaking party instead?


    “What’s up with her? Why’s she in such a bad mood?” Abigailined.


    “She’s in charge here. Why are you provoking her on purpose?” One of her colleagues retorted.


    Meanwhile, Joan sat on the sofa in her office. She stared at the ceiling in a sullen mood.


    “What’s going on?” Caiden entered the office and asked.


    “Nothing.”


    “Are you upset?” he continued.


    “No.”


    Why must hee and find me when I’m already in a funk? Joan turned away and busied herself in


    work.


    “Were you okst night?” he asked.


    “Yup,” she answered.


    Caiden was frustrated at her monosybic replies.


    I’m just checking on her out of concern. Why must she be so cold toward me?


    “Joan, is there something on your mind? If you can’t focus on work now, you can take a short break,”


    Caiden said.


    “Caiden!” Joan yelled suddenly.


    “I hope you don’t forget your position. You are the boss, and I’m just one of your many employees,” she


    said seriously.


    What’s up with her? He stared at Joan in shock.


    “I’m done talking. Please leave. I still have work to do,” Joan stated.
