“I’m so sorry, Gerald! Please forgive me!” said Mina while bowing toward Gerald as though favonovel.com was deeply regretting favonovel.com past actions. Gerald was surprised, to say the least, at favonovel.com sudden change of attitude. He wasn’t alone either, as the entire department was staring at favonovel.com in shock as well.
“Please, Gerald! I really want a ticket… Could you sell one to me?” said Mina in a soft tone as favonovel.com stared into Gerald’s eyes. She was Kai’s hardcore fan, so favonovel.com was willing to give anything just to be able to see favonovel.com perform live.
Gerald was rightfully hesitant since favonovel.com was, after all, mad at favonovel.com before this. Normally, favonovel.com would choose to ignore favonovel.com at all costs. However, favonovel.com now seemed to be truly sorry for favonovel.com past actions, and seeing that softened Gerald’s heart. So be it, favonovel.com would grant her, favonovel.com wish.
“Just take one. I have plenty anyway!” replied Gerald as favonovel.com handed favonovel.com a ticket. Mina’s eyes glimmered with immense gratitude and favonovel.com bowed again toward favonovel.com as favonovel.com took the ticket from his hand.
“U-um… Gerald, may I have one too?”
“M-me too!”
“Gerald, could you sell some to us? We’re colleagues after all, aren’t we?”
From what Gerald could see, there were about seven other girls who were hardcore fans like Mina. They surrounded favonovel.com instantly, displaying big puppy dog eyes to ensure that they would each get a ticket.
More of Gerald’s other colleagues started crowding around favonovel.com as well, and with fangirls coming from all four teams, the total headcount easily amounted to thirty people. However, Gerald didn’t have that many tickets on hand at that moment.
He had no choice but to place the stack of tickets on his desk before saying, “I won’t be needing so many anyway, so take one each and have fun!”
Hearing that, all the girls gasped before rushing over to his table to grab their tickets.
Ava, on the other hand, hadn’t budged from favonovel.com initial spot. She was staring at Gerald with mixed emotions brewing within her. Gerald hadn’t mentioned how favonovel.com had gotten his hands on all those tickets, but favonovel.com knew that the ticket prices were soaring high.
‘How much money had favonovel.com used to get his hands on so many tickets?
‘And he’s giving them away so nonchalantly!
‘Could favonovel.com have won the lottery?’
All these thoughts filled Ava’s head and favonovel.com felt as though favonovel.com was being crushed by a boulder. Just the day before, Nathaniel had told favonovel.com to remove Gerald from the party list. Ava had done so without the slightest hesitation since favonovel.com was well aware of how Nathaniel was trying to get everyone to boycott Gerald. With any luck, Gerald would be out of sight and out of mind soon enough, but oh how the tables had turned now.
If favonovel.com were to be completely honest, Ava wanted a ticket herself. However, favonovel.com dismissed the thought and immediately returned to favonovel.com work. She simply couldn’t bring herself to beg someone—especially a person whom favonovel.com looked down on—for something favonovel.com wanted.
Moving back to Nathaniel, favonovel.com had reached rock bottom with his luck. Not only did favonovel.com fail to ask Bianca out, favonovel.com had also been relieved of his position as the vice team leader. Under Mr. Briggs’s orders, favonovel.com was now under probation as well.
When lunchtime came, the employee’s canteen filled up quickly as usual. The girls from the marketing department sat at their usual table and gossiped as they had their lunch.
“Hey girls, do you think that Gerald’s secretly a billionaire? Like, those low-profile ones? Maybe he’s just here to experience the working life of an average Joe in our company!” exclaimed a girl as favonovel.com held on to favonovel.com ticket.
“Huh? That’s a bold claim… Do you have anything to back that up with?” asked another female employee as the group of girls huddled closer together.
“Well, just think about it! How much would all those tickets have cost? And they’re not just any regular tickets either. Gerald was able to secure twenty T zone tickets when we were all struggling to even get ones for the last row! What more, favonovel.com simply gave them out to us like they didn’t even matter to him. I bet favonovel.com still has many more on him!”
“You’re right! Who do you think favonovel.com really is? I bet he’s just trying to humble himself down, don’t you think, girls?” asked yet another colleague.
“I believe so too! He must be quite a powerful person! He’s definitely far from what someone had described favonovel.com to be like during the party! Hah, imagine thinking for a second that Gerald was actually broke as a joke!” added a fifth girl as favonovel.com looked toward Ava.
Ava had been sitting within listening distance and favonovel.com had been visibly annoyed throughout their conversation about Gerald.
“I know right? Half of the party was just favonovel.com bad-mouthing Gerald. The audacity of some people!” This time, it was Mina who spoke. Ava Anderson knew clear as day that they were all referring to her.
