Chapter 211

Jerome mentioned to her that his company was planning a company trip at Riverside Resort on that

Saturday,

It was such a coincidence that Celeste and her colleagues also chose the same place.

Mikayla pulled Celeste aside and said, “Be honest with me. Did you plan this with Jerome?”

Celeste looked at her in confusion. “Plan what?”

“Don’t play dumb with me.” Mikayla glared at Celeste. “When did you get bribed by Jerome?”

When they met at the hospital two days ago, Celeste didn’t mention anything about the company trip..

Then, she suddenly decided to ask Mikayla to join without telling her the specific location so that she wouldn’t get suspicious.

Seeing that she couldn’t hide it from Mikayla any longer, Celeste simply laughed.

“It’s not exactly bribery. A few colleagues from our department were really planning for a trip. When Jerome said they would come here, he extended the invitation to us too, so I didn’t hesitate.”

Miakyla rolled her eyes at Celeste. “Are you the kind of person who takes advantage of others?”

Celeste said, “This is a great deal, okay? Do you know much it costs to stay at the Riverside Resort? Besides, the resort has a natural hot spring that is riched with mineral content. It’s good for recuperation. I thought it’d help in your recovery. I swear I’m doing it for your sake.”
