Chapter 369
"You’re really good at laying it on thick!" Hunter said for the umpteenth time today.
"No, that ain’t flattery, mate. I genuinely think you’re rad," Molly was saying that when someone passed by. She stopped talking and escorted Hunter to the company’s entrance, expressing deep gratitude towards him.
Once Hunter was gone, Molly called Rosemary.
"Rose, I’ve got a shindig tonight. You reckon this dress suits the occasion?"
"What kind of party?"
Not knowing what the occasion was, she wasn’t sure if the dress would be appropriate.
Molly explained, "My grandpa set it up before he passed. Whenever there’s a new management team, the old board members and shareholders throw a welcome bash."
Getting the picture, Rosemary said promptly, "In that case, the dress is spot on."
"Rose, I got to thank you," Molly couldn’t resist saying. "If it wasn’t for you, Hunter wouldn’t have brought me back home, wouldn’t have stood up for me when those old farts on the board gave me a hard time. And he’s even willing to attend tonight’s party. You don’t know how much that means. It’s basically a chance for the new CEO to show off their connections."
This was really surprising.
Thank goodness Hunter agreed to go. Otherwise, she would be looked down on by those old geezers again.
