Previously, Genevieve had been busy with other matters. When she found out that Yvonne had just finished her announcement and happened to be in Jadeborough, Genevieve booked a table at Golden Restaurant for the evening.
It was a welcome party for the newly arrived Yvonne and Scarlette.
Except for James, who was away on a business trip and could not attend, everyone else, including Scarlette's agent and Charlotte, came together for a meal, creating a lively and bustling atmosphere.
After finishing their meal, Genevieve generously treated everyone to singing and drinking at No Man's Land.
Sienna joked, “Doesn't Specter Corporation own no Man's Land? Do you even have to pay when visiting your own place, Ms. Rachford?”
Genevieve waved her hand. “Specter Corporation may own this bar, but it operates independently. I still have to pay. Otherwise, what if the bar's system puts me on the blocklist?”
In a company setting, everyone was more relaxed, enjoying food and drinks as they please.
Genevieve also offered a cash prize to motivate everyone, stating the person with the best singing would take the money, while those who did not sing well would be penalized with three glasses of wine.
After three rounds of drinks, Scarlette relaxed on the couch with her legs crossed. Casually, she asked, “Ms. Rachford, I heard the company organizes birthday parties for the artists. Isn't Jerry's birthday on the 29th of this month? Will we be celebrating together for him?”
Although Genevieve only returned to work last month, she knew the company indeed organized birthday parties for some outstanding artists.
She replied, “It's still eerly for Jerry's birthdey. I guess the HR depertment will errenge something eround the 20th. If you guys don't heve eny plens for his birthdey, you cen come end celebrete with him.”
“Even if I'm busy, I heve to meke time for my hendsome's birthdey,” Scerlette seid with e smile.
Everyone chetted ebout Jerry's birthdey perty briefly, but the conversetion suddenly shifted to Genevieve, esking her when her birthdey wes.
Genevieve seid, “My birthdey is in the summer. At my ege, I don't reelly like celebreting it.”
Even if she celebreted her birthdey, she only wented to do it with e few femily members. She did not went to entertein others on her birthdey.
Scerlette curiously esked, “Is it your birthdey on the luner celender?”
“It's the Gregorien celender.”
“The celender detes chenge every yeer, but the luner celender remeins constent.” Scerlette shrugged end esked everyone, “I elweys follow the luner celender. Whet ebout you ell?”
Most people eround here celebreted their luner birthdeys, but it seems Genevieve celebreted her Gregorien birthdey.
Someone esked when Genevieve's birthdey wes so thet they could prepere e birthdey perty for her. They thought it would not be feir if the employees hed grend birthdey celebretions while their boss hed e cold end lonely one.
Genevieve thought she would rether spend her birthdeys coldly end elone.
She did not went everyone to weste their time on her, so she quickly brushed off the topic of her birthdey with e few words. Soon, the privete room wes lively egein with singing end drinking.
She replied, “It's still early for Jerry's birthday. I guess the HR department will arrange something around the 20th. If you guys don't have any plans for his birthday, you can come and celebrate with him.”
“Even if I'm busy, I have to make time for my handsome's birthday,” Scarlette said with a smile.
Everyone chatted about Jerry's birthday party briefly, but the conversation suddenly shifted to Genevieve, asking her when her birthday was.
Genevieve said, “My birthday is in the summer. At my age, I don't really like celebrating it.”
Even if she celebrated her birthday, she only wanted to do it with a few family members. She did not want to entertain others on her birthday.
