Chapter 410

Alex, clutching his latest creation, strode into Josefina's office and laid the design out for review.

"Ms. Josefina, I've finished up. Could you take a look and give me your thoughts?"

Josefina picked up the designs, nodding in approval. "Not bad at all. These will do nicely."

Alex's face lit up with a grin. "Thanks, Ms. Josefina! I'll get back to it then. We've got more partners on board now, so there's an even bigger need for fresh designs."

"Alex, you've been a real trooper," Josefina said, her voice warm with appreciation. "Starting this month, we're tripling your salary. And any design we use, that's a bonus on top."

Alex's entry salary as an intern had been a modest three grand a month. Upon becoming a full-fledged member of the team, it had bumped to eight thousand.

Triple that? Twenty-four grand a month!

His hands rubbed together in barely contained excitement. "Isn't that a bit much?" "Not at all," Josefina assured him. "You've earned it with your contributions. Keep up the good work, and there's more where that came from."

Overflowing with gratitude, Alex apologized for his excitement and scurried out to share the news with Jade.
