Chapter 79
Marcus was at a loss for words. He had expected too much. It was unlikely that Julian and Celeste would reconcile.
He was surprised that Julian had waited in the car. He hadn’t expected the CEO of Ford Corporation to be doing something like this.
Marcus thought Julian would never get himself a wife with his actions. He reckoned that he had to do something before someone snatched Celeste away.
As Marcus mulled things over, an unfathomable smile flashed across his eyes.
The next day, Celeste went to the office. Her colleague said, “Celeste, there’s a company gathering tonight. Remember to be there.”
“Gathering?”
“Yeah. It is organized by the company, and all employees need to attend.”
Celeste thought about it and asked curiously, “is the boss coming too?”
After being in the company for some time, Celeste grew more curious about the identity of the company’s boss.
Her colleague laughed. “No way. Why would the boss attend a small gathering like this?”

“sam, I have something to attend to and will be home late tonight. Don’t come in the evening, as I won’t be around.”
The excited look on Samuel’s face changed instantly when he heard that “Okay, then! Ms. Hart, go on with your work.” “Okay, Sam, you’re such a sweet boy.” Celeste smiled.
Samuel wouldn’t get to meet Celeste that day. He ended the call sadly.
In the CEO’s office of Ford Corporation, Marcus reported about work, then said, “Julian, the chairman of Fortune Corporation requested to meet you tonight. If everything goes well, he’ll probably discuss the contract with you. You need to be there.”
Julian nodded, “Let me know the time and address.”

After the dinner, Sabrina looked at her watch and suggested, “It’s still early. Since we finally have the time for a gathering, why don’t we go to the c nearby to have some fun?”
“Okay, I’m fine with it.”
“Ms. Anderson, it’s your call!”
Everyone agreed to Sabrina’s suggestion. Seeing that all her colleagues were in high spirits, Celeste wondered what they would think if she didn’t join them… She seemed hesitant, as she didn’t like going to a noisy place like that.
“Celeste, let’s go!” Sabrina tagged at her Celeste had no choice but to follow.
