Standing there would undoubtedly expose her to Kaiden’s view.
At that moment, her phone chimed.
Essence had just sent her a link to a shocking piece of news, which read, “Carole Lambert has emerged as a senior executive at the renowned fashion company Harvillston. Congratulations p>
The message came with a sticker expressing eagerness to witness the excitement.
Ellie took a sudden step backward, distancing herself from the balcony. The speculation she feared had indeed come true.
Despite Ellie’s rejection of Harvillston, she felt a deep disappointment knowing that Carole had been appointed as a senior executive. It was anticipated, yet Ellie couldn’t help but feel let down.

Turning to her phone’s email, she found a message from her supervisor two days prior. The Art School of Critport University had extended an invitation for her to return as an off-campus mentor, delivering a series of lectures to the underclassmen for two weeks.

They also successfully planned various departmental activities for the upcoming half-month. The executives were overtired, with even Bruce stifling a silent yawn.

On the host’s chair, Kaiden maintained an expressionless demeanor. He resembled a cold, mechanical figure.
Anyone observant could discern that Kaiden was in a sour mood.
“Bruce, is Mr. Thorpe upset?” one of the senior executives couldn’t resist asking Bruce in a hushed tone.
Bruce sighed wearily. “Mr. Thorpe mentioned that tonight’s salary is triple the usual amount p>
The senior executives speculated that Kaiden must have had a disagreement with his significant other.
When the two weren’t on good terms, it was the employees who bore the brunt.
The senior executives were left speechless. One of them glanced at his watch.
Well, it was eight in the morning, time to head to work once more. Getting some sleep seemed preferable to earning triple the salary.
