"Mrs. White looks so young! I heard she's thirty, but with that glow, if you told me she was eighteen, I'd believe you."
Another colleague chimed in, "Mr. White looks incredibly young too! Did this couple find the fountain of youth or something?"
A senior employee nearby laughed.
"You kids really don't know what the boss's wife does for a living, do you? She's literally a National Treasure. She just spent six months abroad leading advanced academic panels and racking up international awards."
"As for why she looks so young, it's directly tied to her scientific research."
"Honestly, the boss and his wife looking this good isn't even the crazy part. The truly mind-blowing ones are her parents."
"They're in their sixties but look like they're in their twenties. Their research caused an absolute earthquake in the medical community years ago."
"Their anti-aging serum goes for astronomical prices in elite circles, and even then, money usually can't buy it."
This was the classic information gap between the elite and the working class.
Things that were common knowledge among the billionaires were still mind-blowing news to the general public.
The rookies gasped in awe.
"Leo, what exactly is the boss's wife's background? She sounds legendary."
Leo smiled, happy to educate the newcomers. "She's the heiress of the Reed family from Gotham, and a peerless genius in her own right."
Before Delia could even process the bombshell, Leo continued.
"Remember those gifts you all got a few days ago? The men got the latest smartphones, and the women got those diamond bracelets."
"Those were company-wide bonuses the boss paid for out of his own pocket."
"Why the sudden generosity? Because his wife just won her seventh international award. The boss was so ecstatic he gave a gift to every single employee in the company."
Delia stood there, entirely paralyzed.
So the diamond bracelet she cherished and obsessed over... was just a mass-distributed corporate handout?
Desperate, she pulled out her phone and frantically searched the web for the boss's wife, but absolutely nothing came up.
Noticing Delia's frantic scrolling, Leo chuckled.
"The boss is insanely protective of his wife's privacy. Any news or media about her gets scrubbed by our tech department instantly."
"If I had a wife that stunning, I'd guard her like she was the center of my universe too."
Leo looked up at the radiant woman on stage and sighed in pure admiration.
"Her face is genuinely flawless."
The tenth-anniversary celebration wrapped up perfectly amidst the cheers of the staff.
From the moment the boss and his wife arrived to the moment they left, barely ten minutes had passed.
Before departing, Andres took the microphone. "Today is my tenth wedding anniversary, and it's also a welcome-home party for my wife. Please, enjoy the food and drinks tonight. It's entirely on me."
With that, he waved to his employees and, amidst thunderous applause, wrapped his arm around his wife's waist and escorted her out.
A confused colleague asked, "Why are they leaving so soon?"
Leo replied, "Because this isn't their main event. Their close friends and family definitely have a private banquet set up somewhere else."
As Andres held his wife's hand and walked right past Delia, he didn't spare her a single glance.
