StarNovelChapter 662 I thought about it for a while and then stopped thinking about it. In any case, this had nothing to do with me.
After Theo left, Munchkin kept asking where he went and when he was coming back. I could only tell him that he would soon be back. After asking a few more times, he stopped asking again.
The days were not as quiet recently. The rumors about Fred and I were getting more and more outrageous in the restaurant. Seven said that we were already living together.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtAt first, I was quite troubled about it, but I later got over it. Humans would only choose to believe in whatever they were willing to believe in. There was no use explaining. Being overly concerned about it would only add to one's troubles.
Fortunately, due to my relationship with Carlson, most people would not show malice when they saw me.
When it was payday, Fred handedthe payslip and said with a smile, "You should buya meal." When I saw that my salary had increased twice as much, I nodded. "What do you want to eat?" Someone overheard our conversation and chimed in," Miss Lane got a promotion and a pay raise. This is worth celebrating." Fred smiled atand made no comments.
I let out a small smile and said, "Let's have dinner together, then. After that, we'll all go to the bar?" "Sure!" Several ladies responded cheerfully.
When the rest had gone back to work, Fred said to me, "Your total salary is only 8,000 dollars. It will cost 1,000 to 2,000 for a meal. After another round at the bar, you won't have much left." I smiled. "It's okay. My spending isn't huge now anyway, so I don't need to use a lot of money. Everyone's excited, so let's just go and have sfun." Fred nodded with a smile. "I'll ask my mom to go to the kindergarten to pick Munchkin and Tiana up tonight. We can go back a little later." "Okay." I found a relatively large French restaurant and booked two private rooms.
The group went over at night and when it was tto order, someone teased, "This is the best French restaurant in Zenon and the food isn't cheap. You're really generous, Miss Lane." "This meal is going to cost you half of your salary." Someone echoed, "Miss Lane doesn't only make money from here for a living. Why are you feeling sorry for her?" It was Fiona who spoke. I smiled but did not say a word and continued to ask them to order the food.
After ordering food, everyone started making idle conversation.
Someone looked atand asked, "Do you plan to live here in Zenon for good, Miss Lane? Or do you plan to g o back after stime?" I replied, "I'm not sure."
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm"I heard that the two presidents of the Grant and Zimmer Corporation are in contention. Both Schumans over to their drawing the interested in side. Can you perhaps reveal sof the details, Miss Lane? Maybe we can gossip a little about it?"
When a group sat together, what better things were there to do than gossip? I smiled and said, I didn't I stay very long in Whaldorf City and cover to Zenon three years ago, so I'm not very sure either." Fiona had always been a highly visible person. Without her father's support now, she was given the cold shoulder and felt unfairly treated.
She looked at the crowd and said, "As I remember, Miss Lane's son is m yearslord.
already four years old. Say, why do you think a rich daughter is hiding with her son in such a remote town?" This topic was quite gossipy in nature.
All of a sudden, everyone at the table turned to look at me. Someone asked curiously, "Miss Lane, we seem to have never seen or heard of your son's father before." I pursed my lips. The waiter happened to be serving the food, and I said, "We've been talking for so long. Everyone must be hungry now. Hurry up and dig in."
