Jilted Bride 245

Chapter 245

Ophelia snapped out of her thoughts and glanced at the group chat, which had exploded with dozens of messages in just a short time.

The atmosphere was one of widespread celebration, with various emojis flying all over.

The people in the company had really been working hard lately. Also, it seemed like the company had never organized a meal since it was founded.

It was about time to treat everyone.

Ophelia nodded. "Alright, let's book a nice place. Don't worry about the cost. We can't shortchange anyone. This will count as a team-building event. It's voluntary, and whether you come or not, everyone gets a bonus, 15% of your monthly salary as the bonus amount." "Got it!" Cody cheered.

Cody, feeling grateful to have such a great boss, immediately got to work on making arrangements.

Ophelia checked her phone. She hadn't seen Chloe in a while, so she decided to invite her out as well. It would be a good opportunity for everyone to meet her.

Ophelia then sent a message to Kenneth. [There's a celebration dinner tonight, so I won't be able to have dinner with you. Once we book a place, I will send you the location. Come pick me up after it's done.]

Kenneth stared at the message on his screen.

Ophelia's tone was becoming more and more like her usual commanding self, a direct and almost authoritative one. Kenneth's fingers, long and defined, typed a quick reply. [Alright Ms. Spencer.]

Ophelia smiled softly when she saw the reply.

That evening, Cody had booked a restaurant with a great ambiance. The decor was sophisticated, and the menu was extensive.

Almost everyone from the company had shown up.

Ophelia introduced Chloe to a few of the key members and then let them enjoy themselves while she stepped back and didn't get involved in the festivities.

Chloe took the opportunity to report on the recent developments at La Reverie.

"Chloe, is Noah still staying with you?" Ophelia asked with a playful smile, her eyes narrowing slightly as they fixed on Chloe's deep blue eyes.

Chloe's eyes were so striking, like jewels.

-Chloe frowned slightly. "By the way, I heard that Keaton, one of the shareholders at Everland Hotel, was ousted by the major shareholders. He's been selling his shares lately. Since we have sufficient funds, do you think we should buy his shares?" Ophelia raised an eyebrow. This was probably related to Kenneth in some way.

"Sure." Ophelia agreed, nodding. The more of Dellanex's actual assets they could acquire, the more leverage they'd have when negotiating with political circles in the future.
