Hiding Behind Her Superficiality novel Chapter 715

Blake’s eyes lit up at the nurse’s words. He rushed inside and hurried to Lisa’s side. Watching her open her eyes slightly with her face still showing signs of exhaustion, he couldn’t help but lovingly stroke her face. “You must be tired, darling.”

“It’s okay, I’m fine.” Lisa smiled faintly. Then, she suddenly recalled something and asked, “Where’s our baby? Can I see the baby?”

Elspeth couldn’t help but let out a chuckle. “Why are you in such a hurry to see the baby as soon as you wake up? The baby’s doing fine. It’s a boy, and he’s in the incubator right now.”

Lisa blushed slightly. “It’s not that. It’s just—”

Elspeth interrupted her and continued, “Now that you’ve given birth to a child, I’m going to give you a great gift.”

“What kind of gift?”

“I’ve decided to gift you with 15 percent of Azure’s shares.”

Lisa’s eyes widened in an instant. “No, this is not appropriate.”

Elspeth smiled while giving her a reproachful look. “How is it not appropriate? You’ve just given birth to a child, so consider this my gift to you. Besides, you’ve done so much for me, and I haven’t figured out what to give you. I think this is just perfect.”

Owning 15 percent of Azure’s shares would essentially grant Lisa direct entry into the company’s board of directors.

“By the way, I’ve also promoted you to Azure’s vice president,” added Elspeth.

Lisa couldn’t help it as her eyes welled up with tears upon hearing that. “Miss Elspeth, you’ve been so kind to me. I really have no idea how to repay you for this.”

She was truly touched by those words. She lost her parents at a young age and had been struggling to make a living on her own, working hard just to support herself. It was entirely by chance that Elspeth discovered some of her talents and gave her an opportunity, which completely changed her life. She thought that meeting Elspeth was already a stroke of good luck, but she never thought the latter would do this much for her.

Elspeth’s eyes were now slightly red, and she couldn’t help but gently stroke Lisa’s hair. “Cut that nonsense. You’re a wonderful girl, and you deserve all of this. You’ve been with me for so many years and have done so much for me. I still feel that I haven’t given you enough.”

Lisa nodded vigorously.

Elspeth then turned around and waved her fist at Blake. “I’m warning you, Lisa is my sister now. If you ever dare bully her, I won’t let you off.”

Blake shook his head, pretending to look frightened. “How could I? I’d never dare bully her. In our family, she calls the shots. Heck, even my baby comes first before me.”

Everyone around him burst into laughter at his words.

Just then, Yelena interjected, “Alright, the new mother has just given birth and is not feeling well at the moment. Let her have some rest. The rest of us can leave for now.”

The others nodded in agreement before following her out of the ward.
