Chapter 462- Crisps
"I know you need money; your mom isn’t doing well nowadays. Keep it, Penny!" Paige slipped some cash into the hands of one of her admirers. The girl was hesitant to accept help, but she needed it badly.
"And what do I have to do in return, Paige?" She asked George’s assistant with curiosity and Paige just placed her hand on her shoulder.
"Nothing, silly. You just need to tell one or two office females that our dearest boss George Donovan got engaged to Ariel Sinclair."
"Wh-what?" The girl tried to return the money, "No, Paige. I might land into trouble."
She liked Paige but never performed any such stunt in the office, "If George Donovan will find out, I’ll be on the streets."
Instead of accepting the money, Paige held her hands, "Don’t be stupid. No one is asking you to deliver the confirmed news. Just tell one or two girls that you heard some other ladies talking in the bathroom or the locker area. That’s it. Easy peasy."
The girl was still hesitant to accept it, but she didn’t know Paige. Paige always had a way with words. She could easily convince anyone she wanted.
She had been like that since childhood. Once she set her mind to something, there was no stopping her.
"Everyone knows that you are my friend, Penny. I assure you; no one will ever doubt you."
Penny looked at the currency notes clutched in her fist and then her eyes darted to Paige’s face, "OK, fine. I’ll do it."
"That’s like my girl!" Paige hugged her with a smile. It was going way better than she had planned.
