Chapter 183

Kimberly thought, ‘Dress up a bit?

She cast a critical eye over her own outfit, silently challenging Vincent’s suggestion and wondering. ‘Is

there really a problem with what I’m wearing?”

Then, she shook her head, dismissing the thought with a smile.

In her opinion, professional attire was crucial at work, as it conveyed energy and diligence.

After hanging up the phone, Kimberly sank back into her plush, genuine leather executive chair,

daydreaming about the barbecue party planned for that evening

Vincent had mentioned that all five of the brothers would be there, and she was even welcome to bring

her family members.

“All five of them? Maybe Simon’s back after collecting his international award?’ Kimberly speculated,

A joyful grin spread across her face. Each of her brothers was uniquely talented and accomplished in

their own right.

The mention of family members” sparked an idea in Kimberly’s mind, and she leaped up from her chair-

Genevieve instantly came to her mind.

Kimberly had a special fondness for Genevieve. Initially, it was the younger woman’s resemblance to

her past self that caught her attention, but over time, Genevieve’s humility, kind nature, and exceptional

design skills had impressed her deeply.

As a result, she had been guiding and taking care of Genevieve all these years.

For Kimberly, Genevieve was more than just a subordinate; she was a friend.

Always observant in her work and toward her colleagues, Kimberly had noticed that her third elder

brother, Samuel, seemed to have a special regard for Genevieve.

Concluding that no one should miss out on such a fun gathering, she decided to extend an invitation.

Genevieve, meanwhile, hurried to Kimberly’s office, summoned unexpectedly and feeling a mix of

curiosity and anxiety.

Upon being summoned, she m entally reviewed her recent work, trying to guess the reason for the

sudden call.

After going through the progress, she felt more confused as all her recent tasks seemed

to be reaching their milestones and nothing appeared to be a significant issue.

Arriving at the office, Genevieve paused to take a deep breath before gently knocking.

“Come in,” came Kimberly’s melodious voice from inside.

Genevieve entered, trying to appear calm.

Kimberly looked up, smiled, and walked toward the couch while inviting warmly, “Come and sit,

Genevieve.”

The tension in Genevieve’s body eased as she settled into the inviting atmosphere.

“Ms. Larson, do you have any urgent tasks for me?” Genevieve inquired, prepared for new instructions.

Kimberly replied with a light-hearted tone, “Do you think I’m some kind of devil boss? If that’s the case,

I should probably do some self-reflection. We should focus more on team-building and developing our

corporate culture here at Larson Corporation.”

Genevieve quickly shook her head, clarifying. “No, not at all. Many people are eager to join Larson

Corporation because they’ve heard how wonderful the boss is-gorgeous, kind-hearted, and

competent.”

Realizing her uncharacteristic fluency in compliments, Genevieve was taken aback. It seemed that with

Kimberly, she had learned the art of flattery.

Kimberly, on the other hand, continued the conversation casually, with Genevieve listening intently,

nodding in agreement from time to time.

Eventually, Kimberly got to the point. “Are you free tonight? How about joining us for an outdoor party

at my place?”

Genevieve was both surprised and flattered, hardly believing the invitation. Pointing to herself, she

asked incredulously, “Me?”

Observing Genevieve’s reaction, Kimberly couldn’t help but laugh. “Yes, you! I’m officially inviting you to

the Larson residence.”

Judging from her tone, it seems like she’s free tonight, she mused.

Before Genevieve could react, Kimberly playfully teased, “You wouldn’t say no to your boss, would

you?”

Genevieve, feeling a bit cornered by the question, quickly replied, “Of course not. I’m free tonight. Do

you need any help setting up?”

Kimberly, pleased with Genevieve’s response, mused, ‘This girl really is thoughtful and

considerate. She and Samuel would be a good match.”

Thus, a similar scene ensued.

Kimberly smiled and responded, “No need to come early to help, we’ve got everything covered. Just

dress up and enjoy the party.”

The situation mirrored her earlier conversation with Vincent

mona

Genevieve felt her cheeks redden as she thought, “This feels like I’m being set up blind date by my

own boss.

Kimberly glanced at the clock and realized there were still two hours left in the workday. Unable to

focus on work, she decided to take Genevieve clothes shopping.

Caught off guard by the offer, Genevieve stammered out, “Ms. Larson, I still haven’t finished the project

analysis you assigned me.”

She was trying to avoid the potential embarrassment of shopping with Kimberly.

Kimberly offered a generous and competitive wage in the industry. However, given her modest

background and financial responsibilities, including supporting her parents and covering her brother’s

gambling debts, Genevieve was used to living frugally.

She worked hard to purchase a house in the city and was finally feeling a sense of security.

Unfortunately, having to manage mortgage payments and send some money home meant she had

tight budget constraints.

All along, Genevieve told herself not to live too indulgently, and as a result, she adopted a rather

minimalistic lifestyle.

Judging by her capability and taste, Kimberly’s choice of shops would undoubtedly be upscale,

reflecting her daily wardrobe.

Genevieve had initially planned to wear a dress she bought last year to the party. However, if she were

to accompany Kimberly shopping, she would undoubtedly have to purchase a new dress.

Kimberly instantly recognized Genevieve’s reluctance. Swiftly stepping in to prevent her escape,

Kimberly firmly said, “Don’t worry about the work; you can catch up on it tomorrow. Today’s a unique

chance for us to bond as colleagues and friends by going shopping together.”

The sincerity in Kimberly’s voice clearly conveyed her desire for Genevieve’s company. At this point,

Genevieve felt almost obliged to accept, thinking to herself, ‘Ms. Larson. has always been so kind and

supportive. It would be rude to decline her generous offer!

Thu 1-3

Chapter 183

As they made their way, their conversation naturally veered into more personal territories. Being aware

of Genevieve’s daily commute via subway, Kimberly inquired about her plans to purchase a car.

This wasn’t just small talk; Kimberly’s concern was genuine. She understood that Genevieve, often

working late hours, could face safety issues traveling by subway at night, even with the city’s security

measures.

Especially considering Kimberly’s own unsettling experience of being followed recently, the incident

had left a deep impression on her, making her extra cautious about safety, particularly for her diligent

employee..

Genevieve, taken aback by the unexpected question, felt a mixture of surprise and a tinge of

awkwardness.

She hadn’t anticipated such a personal inquiry from her boss.
