Chapter 324 So Greasy
“So Linda, if you’re afraid that his feelings for me will be reignited, quickly think of a way. Otherwise, I’ll really leave with him tomorrow.”
“If this happened last time and our places were switched, what would you tell me? I think you would say, Liz, many things are out of our hands. I don’t want to ruin your relationship, but… he wants me to go. For our company’s sake, I can only follow along. Don’t worry, Liz. I will keep my distance with him, so it won’t cause any misunderstandings between the both of you.”
Elisa mimicked her well and sounded exactly like her.
Linda was speechless.
Bang.
In her rage, Linda slammed the table.
“You’re too much, Elisa!”
Elisa’s lips twitched. “Mm. Since you don’t like me, I’ll return to my station. I’ll be waiting for you to…”
Her smile deepened. “Host my celebration dinner at night.”
As soon as she said it, she walked out without waiting for a reply from Linda.
In the past, Elisa would treat Linda the same way that Linda treated her. It was already too much for Linda to bear. But what about in the future?
“Yara!”
When she reached the door, Elisa heard Linda’s slightly irritable voice. Linda was speaking at a higher pitch than usual.
When Elisa got back to her office, Kira looked at Elisa with worry. “You’re back, Liz.”
She wanted to say something, but she didn’t know how to express it. Elisa seemed as though she didn’t see it. She smiled and nodded. “Mm.”
“What about the partnership with Mr. Wickam…?”
“The process is as before. You don’t have to worry about me, Kira.”
Seeing Elisa so at ease without a single worry, the worry in Kira’s heart lessened subconsciously.
In the midst of everyone’s anticipation, it was time to get off work.
Linda told Julie to inform everyone in the group chat, so no one went home. Everyone headed to dinner together.
Everyone went into the venue gradually. Elisa was among them, and she had an indifferent expression.
Because Linda was the daughter of the chairman and she was in a wheelchair, it was only natural that she would be at the very front.
Everyone sat down, wanting to see what kind of show would play out next.
Because… just now in the group chat, Julie had said that this wasn’t just Elisa’s celebration dinner. Philip would be coming by as well!
So this meant that!
Philip would also be here!
This was such juicy gossip. Anyone would be a fool not to tune in.
Once everyone was in their places, Linda smiled and looked at everybody. “I’ve told Ms. Kent to inform everyone that today is Liz’s celebration dinner, and at the same time, it’s a symbol of thanks to Mr. Whitford for working with our company, which was why I specially invited him. He is on the way, so please wait for a while, everyone. Food will be served once he’s here.”
Everyone played along agreeably without any hesitation. No one said anything.
At the moment, some were already trying to curry favor.
Elisa sat quietly in her seat. She seemed like she didn’t speak much.
She had been like this as well at the office for the past few days. Her colleagues didn’t think anything was strange with her. It was evident that they were used to it.
While everyone was waiting in anticipation, Philip arrived.
In the moment, everyone’s gaze was on Philip. They were clearly sizing him up.
Some couldn’t help but discuss it with their colleagues in whispers.
“Mr. Whitford is such a greasy man. How did Elisa bear it…”
