Chapter 133 Honeymoon
+8 Pearls
“Seems like a pretty steadfast guy,” Caesar said, still a little out of the loop as he took a bite of food. “So, are you two together?”
Lemon shook her head. “Not quite. It’s more like… we have feelings for ch other. But it’s been three years apart, and we need time. That rumor helped build some hype for his return, and I guess it’s my way of making it up to him.”
Wendy scoffed. “Make it up to him? Please. If it weren’t for you, he’d still be struggling to get noticed back home, barely hanging on. Now, everything he’s built, he earned it. His reputation is way better this way.”
They had always assumed Lemon stayed single all these years because she still had feelings for Chase. But now that Noah was in the picture, it only raised new concerns.
Lemon had never really been in love before and didn’t know what being in a relationship was truly like. The emotional side of things, she’d have to figure that out on her own. No one could help her with that.
“I signed Noah a while back, and I’m planning to sign a few e–sports teams next. That was Ms. Zach’s idea. She said e–sports are on the rise and we should sign a few while the costs are still manageable and start developing talent.”
“Ms. Zach is right,” someone said. “Looks like she actually paid attention during the last Gennemont joint meeting.”
Wait, this was brought up in the last joint meeting? Wendy and Chase exchanged glances. They had been at the meeting that first day, but both of them had been half–asleep the whole time. They didn’t catch much of what the older board members were talking about and left the moment it ended.
“E–sports are already a booming industry overseas, and it’s just starting to pick up here. I’ve been leaning that way myself. After the holiday break, I’ll start looking into a few solid teams too. Who knows, we might end up competing for the same ones.”
Sammy added, “Ms. Zach has her eye on two particular teams. I looked into them–no major issues. The rest were shortlisted during our internal meetings.”
Wendy still focused mostly on traditional industries like jewelry and real estate. When it came to emerging sectors, the only things that caught her attention were IT and entertainment. Everything else, she left to others.
Wendy and Chase chose Oceania as their first honeymoon destination. It had always been a place they wanted to visit.
Gennemont was cold, but Oceania was warm. There, they could bask in the sunlight, enjoy the beach, the ocean, and each other.
The bond between Chase and Wendy was close. To anyone who didn’t know their background, they just looked like a pair of newlyweds on their honeymoon.
They sunbathed by the beach, dined under candlelight at night, with bonfires illuminating the sand around
them.
