Joey took out the box in surprise and saw the trademark of Rotary on it, which was a luxurious watch brand. The watch of this brand was very expensive. Miss Li was so generous!
While he was thinking, the other secretaries returned to their seats quietly. Only Joey didn't sense anything unusual.
He didn't turn back until he felt the familiar cold atmosphere and he saw Boss Si was standing behind with a gloomy face. Joey was so nervous that he almost threw the gift away. He hurried to hide the watch and went back to his desk.
"B...Bo...Boss, I'm...working." Joey stuttered.
Harry stretched out his hand without a word, and Joey looked at him pathetically, for the watch was the most expensive gift he had ever received.
But as Harry's gaze got colder, Joey gave in the box of the watch.
Harry opened the box and saw a watch which was worth tens of thousands.
Jealousy gradually overwhelmed coldness in his eyes. He squeezed the watch box, trying to persuade himself it was none of his business.
Half a minute later, he gave the watch back and went away while Joey was relieved to see him leaving. But then he said in the corridor, "Joey's bonus will be cut for three months onward as he does personal business during work time."
…
The secretaries looked at Joey with sympathy who was extremely shocked. Three months' bonus! The bonus was even higher than the basic salary!
All the others had a lot of sympathy for him.
Joey couldn't tell how he felt at the moment. He really wanted to blow up! Since this was the case, Joey decided to tip Lola off about what Harry did every day.
Joey curled his lips and started working. He wore the watch on his wrist deliberately so that Harry would be jealous every time he saw it.
On Saturday.
Lola drove to the Fontainebleau Resort in the suburb unwillingly for she didn't want to see Harry there.
She really didn't want to see him now, for she would have the impulse to beat him when they met!
At Fontainebleau Resort.
The resort was dozens of kilometers away from downtown, and there was a dense forest in front of its gate. The gate was built in the shape of stone arch, and inside the resort were rockery and bamboos.
Behind the rockery was a large parking lot, and hundreds of staff of SL Group, who came by bus, gathered in the square.
Today, Lola was dressed in a very casual way, with a pair of sunglasses, a dark green blazer, a pair of black trousers and white sneakers. Her long hair was tied into a ponytail.
She could see the obvious excitement on everyone's face when walking to the square after she got out of the car and took off her sunglasses.
"Hello, Miss Li!"
"Good morning, Miss Li!"
Lola was warmly greeted by the group and smiled at them.
Many of them were watching every move of her, thinking about her personal affairs.
The manager of the secretarial department had already begun to distribute the room cards. Some people would live in double rooms, while some in triples.
A black Maserati stopped up front after everyone got their room card.
"Is CEO inside the car? I'm so excited!" A female employee looked at the car with excitement.
"I look forward to seeing our CEO. I'll be satisfied even if I can get a glimpse of him."
"Yeah, but who is that woman! Miss Tan?"
…
The discussion of people behind Lola was louder when they saw Julie Tan in the car.
Joey opened the back door of the black Maserati and Harry came out. Even the casual clothes couldn't cover his grace and imposing manner.
