I nodded, feeling relieved. "Okay."
“Let's go first, then."
Lola was about to leave with Harriet when she suddenly stopped and looked back at me with a bright smile on her lips. "It's my birthday in two days. I’ll be having a party and would like to invite you and Theo."
She probably just wanted Theo to go, but since we were husband and wife, she had to invite me as well.
I wanted to refuse, but that would not be too good. I could only nod and agree. "Of course, we definitely have to go to your birthday party."
"What about me? Will you now invite me, Miss Osborn?" Shannon suddenly asked from the side.
Harriet was obviously taken aback before she said, "Of course, you have to be there too, President Collins. Alright then, I’ll be off first."
After saying that, she left with a sashay of her hips.
After she left, I smiled lightly and looked at Shannon. "You really want to go?"
"You’re talking as if it’s not because of you. I’ll be there in case you can't handle things. I promise to have your Theo leave the banquet unscathed."
Being told by Shannon that this birthday party was a feast for wolves, I lowered my head and smiled slowly. "Okay, let's go back to work."
I copied the photos that had just been selected and brought them to the design team. "These are the photos. Have the main photo, detail, and cover done before next Monday."
"Okay." Nina accepted the USB flash drive. "I’ll distribute them."
"Thank you." I patted her on the shoulder and went into the office.
The busy time passed in a blink of an eye, and the sky gradually darkened. I stretched myself and left the company after reading through the last document.
Back at the villa, Theo was already at home.
Judging by his posture, it was obvious that he had been back for a long time.
