Pampered by my three brothers: the return of the neglected heiress

Chapter 878: the oldies reunion

Outside of the Gymnasium...

Charles and Haines pulled into the parking space. Unlike the wide smile on Charles's face, Haines's expression was dead.

"Charles," Haines called, turning toward the driver's seat where Charles was. "The gymnasium is just right over there."

"And?"

Haines's face twitched. "And it means we didn't need to stay in here with all of them." He then pointed at the people behind the van.

The people at the back were mostly retired workers from Global Prime Logistics during Charles's tenure. Most had retired one after another when Charles retired, making room for younger employees at the start of Atlas's tenure. Although some were still working in the company, assisting Atlas with everything they could.

One more thing: each individual here was part of the group Charles had forced to sign up for the fan club during the live broadcast of Penny's fan club's first general assembly.

Charles looked back at the people behind the van before facing Haines. "Haines, you don't understand the essence of this meeting."

"I don't, when we literally abducted someone from his golf session." Haines pointed at one of the older men, who was still in his golf attire.

The middle-aged man in the backseat laughed awkwardly while scratching the back of his head. "Don't worry, Sir Haines. I told my wife that I was abducted by Sir Charles and you, so she told me to enjoy."

"I wasn't a part of this," Haines corrected, before facing Charles again. "I should've told Allison about this."
