Chapter 306

I was utterly baffled. If not York, who else could have sent the flowers? We’ve only ever dealt with York from RF Group.

While pondering it, York’s sudden realization came through on the other end of the phone. “Oh, oh, oh, it was me, all me! Silly me, I asked my assistant to handle it. He must have mixed it up. I meant to order 99, you know, to wish your company great success and longevity.”

York sounded almost apologetic, “999 is admittedly a bit over the top. Didn’t mean to cause you any trouble, did I?”

“Well…” Glancing at the roses crammed from the elevator lobby into our office, I managed a headache–induced smile, “Uh, not really. Maybe I could talk to the florist and see if we can return some? It’s just too generous of you.”

“No need. It’s not a big deal for him.” York blurted out and cleared his throat slightly, adding, “My assistant is here to gain some life experience. Loaded as can be. I’ll deduct it from his bonus.”

“Okay then.” After expressing my gratitude and chatting a bit, I hung up.

Christine leaned in, curious. “So, he’s the one who sent these roses?”

“Yep.” I chuckled lightly, “But it was his assistant who goofed up. Turned 99 into 999.”
