The next day, delivery guys arrived one after another, flooding the entire office building floor with packages
addressed to Renee Thompson.
Each delivery person would shout loudly in the hallway, “Ms. Renee Thompson, you have a package. Please sign for
it!”
Renee’s legs had no rest that day. She barely had time to sit down before standing up again to receive another
package.
The packages piled up on her desk, filled with top-tier luxury brand clothes, shoes, bags, and cosmetics, causing her
female colleagues to envy her.
Being reserved and low-key, Renee felt uncomfortable with all the sudden attention.
Quietly, she ran to Lina and pointed at the packages on her desk. “Look at all this…”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtLina chuckled, already guessing that they were all gifts from Toph.
After learning about their encounter the previous night, Toph was eager to seek revenge for them, especially after
the remark about Renee not having a boyfriend!
Toph could not tolerate it any longer. How dare someone mock Renee for not having a boyfriend? Did they think he,
the second heir of the Hamertons, was just for show?
That was how today’s scene came to be. He wanted the world to know that his girlfriend, Renee, would carry the
most expensive bags, use the most luxurious cosmetics, and wear not only the finest clothes and shoes but also
limited editions of the current season that money could not necessarily buy!
Now, let’s see how those gossiping women would react!
Renee bit her lip and smiled helplessly. Lina was about to help her move the packages into the small conference
room when they heard sarcastic comments from Amelia and her clique.
“I wonder if these are genuine brands or knock-offs. There are so many counterfeit products online. Can a young
girl even tell the difference?”
“Even knock-offs are not cheap, you know? I doubt an intern’s salary could afford knock-offs!”
“Oh, come on, stop it!” Another colleague sneered. “Haven’t you heard? Her boyfriend sent these!”
Amelia and her clique scoffed.
“Can’t you guys have a better attitude?” another colleague retorted. “Can’t an intern have a boyfriend? Can’t an
intern afford to buy designer brands? What if the intern comes from a wealthy family? You’ll be surprised then!”
“The two of them?” Amelia sneered. “If they come from a wealthy family, I’ll go work in a coal mine!”
Renee took deep breaths, but the frustration was hard to swallow.
Lina pulled her aside, flashing a smile and gesturing to quickly move the packages.
With the help of enthusiastic coworkers, they managed to move everything in just one trip.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmLina checked the time and asked everyone to gather in the large conference room.
As the colleagues entered, they were amazed to see the conference table filled with afternoon tea from a five-star
hotel!
“Wow!” Someone exclaimed, looking at the packaging, “The Hamertons own this hotel. It’s Chaiseland-style
afternoon tea, known for its excellent taste and high price…”
“Yes, I’ve seen it online. You need to make a reservation half a month in advance to have afternoon tea there!”
“Lina, what’s going on?”
Lina smiled softly.
Toph liked to make a grand gesture, but Zuko not only made a show but also acted practically. By treating their
colleagues to this afternoon tea, they would not only gain favor but also win people’s hearts. It was a win-win
situation!
Lina cleared her throat. “Everyone, this is a treat from my boyfriend. Please help yourselves to one portion each!”
A few seconds of silence filled the conference room before excited cheers erupted.
