balance of discipline and reward was the most effective approach.
Chapter 404
Two months later, Erin’s progress in learning was not rapid, but it was sincere. Sheena reviewed her proposal, finding almost no errors, which pleased her.
“Very good. Next time, I’ll assign you a project to work on independently.”
Erin nodded. “Alright, I’ll do my best, but.
She hesitated.
“But what?”
“Can I apply not to work overtime tonight? I have plans to go out for dinner…” Her voice grew softer as she continued, her cheeks slightly reddening.
“Oh, a date?” Sheena noticed Erin’s unusually refined appearance today, and at knowing smile crossed her face. “Is it a guy?”
Blushing, Erin bit her lip and nodded.
“What’s he like? His background? And you remember my conditions, right?”
“Don’t worry, he’s from an ordinary family, but he’s been really good to me during this time, helping me a lot at work. And… he’s quite handsome. But, you know, we’ve just started dating, so it’s not that stable yet.”
Feeling embarrassed, Erin added, “Anyway, I have to get back to my desk.”
Sheena chuckled softly, acknowledging Erin’s departure.
If the guy could help Erin at work, it seemed he was an employee of the Freeman Group.
Sheena called Sarah and privately had her investigate. To her surprise, the person was Julius Mason, an employee of the planning department, just like Erin.
Sheena was astonished because both Julius and Sarah were people she had brought in from Dark Bell, specifically planted in the Freeman Group to work for her. Thus, in terms of character, she trusted him completely.
The next workday, Sheena quietly called Julius into her office.
“Did your date go well last night?”
Julius, looking a bit sheepish, rubbed the back of his head. “Miss, you already know?”
“Do you genuinely like Erin?”
Julius nodded earnestly. “I heard about the conflicts between her and you before.
Initially, when she entered the Freeman Group, I intended to help you keep her in check. However, as we spent time together, I realized she’s just a bit stubborn, probably spoiled by her family. Sometimes, she’s quite adorable. I genuinely like
her.”
“Alright, you can go back to work.”
Sheena refrained from intervening too much in Erin’s love life, but their relationship remained stable.
Three months later, Erin and Julius celebrated a grand wedding ceremony at the Isley Church in Farlem. On the same day, Sheena transferred 40% of her shares in the Freeman Group to Erin.
Before the ceremony, business partners and high–profile CEOs gathered on the lawn near the towering cake table, sipping champagne and engaging in casual
conversations.
Sheena, who usually disliked such occasions, sat at a quiet table with Skye, savoring champagne.
The Moore family was also among the guests, and when Vanessa and Kennedy arrived, they sought out Sheena for a chat. Having not seen them for a while, Sheena keenly noticed that Hannah was not present this time.
With a helpless smile, Vanessa explained, “That child is quite stubborn in matters of the heart. No matter how Kennedy and I advise her, she doesn’t listen. As soon as her leg healed, she ran off to Luivine.”
Luivine?
