Five days passed in a blink of an eye, and it was finally the day of the Garland Group’s fiftieth-anniversary celebration.

During the day, Winnie was so busy with meetings and decision-making that she didn’t even have the time to drink. The opportunity for her to take a breath peacefully only presented itself to her two hours before the celebration.

“The Garland Group looks glamorous on the outside, but who would have thought that it’s rotten to the core?” Winnie massaged her aching shoulder. Her brows scrunched up. “I would have to work tirelessly for a few months to get it back on the right path.”

Nathaniel, who was sitting beside her, couldn’t help but chuckle after hearing her complaints. He walked up behind her and said, “My dear Vinnie, your massaging technique is awful. Let me show you how it is done professionally.”

“You know how to do it?” Winnie was amused.

“What’s there to be surprised about?” Nathaniel was confident. “I know a lot of things. Now, shall I?”

“No, thank you.” Winnie turned him down with a smile. “I was just asking.”

Just as her voice faded out, Nathaniel’s hands were already on her shoulders, and he started professionally massaging her shoulders for her.

Winnie was taken by surprise, for she never expected Nathaniel to ignore her rejection.

“There’s really no need for that,” Winnie emphasized once more.

Right at that instant, a voice sounded outside of the door.

“Who are you? Why are you sneaking around the VIP lounge?”

“I’m sorry. I suppose you must be an employee of the Garland Group. You’ve got it all wrong. I’m not sneaking around; I’m just trying to look for my contact lens. I accidentally dropped it when I rubbed my eyes.”

“Is that so? Do you need my help?”

“That would be great! Thank you for being so helpful. I really can’t see with this horrible short-sightedness of mine!”

Winnie could not help but furrow her brows when she noticed the movements outside.
