Tasha was speechless. The other designers all looked at each other. Disappointment spread across every face in the room.

Dalores sneered. “Who was the one that decided you should spend all their working hours preparing a surprise party?” she scolded. “Mr. Wesley is going to return home soon, to rest. Now that you’ve arranged this event, it will only hinder his recovery. Stop it at once and clean everything up!”

Dolores’ words upset everyone further.

“It’s a surprise I asked everyone to prepare,” interjected Natalie. “Do you object, Dalores?” Natalie looked at Dalores challengingly. She knew that Draco was worried about the studio and, as such, he wouldn’t have been able to rest now anyway. “In addition to celebrating Mr. Wesley’s discharge from the hospital, we’re also celebrating the success of W Marks in Iridescent Show. Everyone here has worked hard for W Marks. Why shouldn’t they be allowed to spend ten minutes eating cake? Tasha, you can clean the table after you’ve finished your cake.”

Draco was browsing through the files, so he hadn’t noticed what’d been going on in their area. Hearing Natalie’s voice, he turned his head and said, “The success of our studio in Iridescent Show is indeed worth celebrating. Everyone, please go ahead and enjoy your cake. Don’t worry about me.”

Draco then turned around and walked into his office.

Only Dalores, with her gloomy expression, was squeezed aside by the crowd. Despite her anger at the situation, she stayed silent.

Natalie tasted the cake and her eyes lit up. “Where did you buy this cake?” she marveled. “It’s delicious, and not greasy at all.”
