Her Revenge Was His Regret (Shirley and Gilbert) novel Chapter 430

Another man nodded in agreement. "Anyone the boss values can't be ordinary."

Gwen stood frozen, her voice cold. "That doesn't mean she's capable. Maybe she's just greedy. We shouldn't expect much from someone from a small place. She's no threat.

"Even the boss can misjudge people sometimes."

The others thought it over and decided she made sense.

They'd almost been fooled by Sherry's act. Then they froze again.

Sherry had just walked away with 500 million dollars.

She'd made that fortune shockingly fast.

She looped her arm through Lucas' and headed for the door. "I just made some money. Let me buy you dinner."

She said it loud enough for the group to hear—a deliberate, cutting remark.

No matter what, Selena was still Lucas' subordinate. Didn't she care about upsetting him?

This was a straight-up slap in a man's face.

"You could have made more," Lucas said casually, his tone clearly aimed at the group behind them. "I'm sure plenty of people would happily give you the chance to earn as much as you want."

He was telling them to pay Sherry off?

Treating them like easy targets?

Had their boss lost his mind?

Lucas' words almost made Sherry stumble. She'd only said it to tease them, not to get dragged into more trouble.

She thought this was supposed to be a vacation.

Instead, she was stuck with this hostile group who seemed determined to pick fights.

But now that she had 500 million, she decided the trip had been worth it.

Those people had heard everything, wasn't he worried they'd turn on him?

She felt their stares burning into her back.

Once the two left, Gwen's already icy expression turned even colder.

Only then did the group finally come to their senses.
