“Plus, Mr. Johnson approved the bonus for the contract Aurora signed on your behalf, too.
Alice hung up the phone, standing dazed by the window in the corridor.
So Michael gave her all these bonuses? Why?
Michael wasn’t a generous person, especially stingy with her. Why did he suddenly let it go?
Thinking about how she found a job in Suncrest City, she had a guess.
Suddenly, as if by telepathy, her gaze fell outside the window.
Several men in suits were walking out of the hospital, catching the attention of almost everyone around.
Alice’s eyes suddenly widened. She seemed to see a familiar person.
Even she shouldn’t be able to see clearly from this far, she knew it was him!
Alice stood frozen in place, her body trembling.
Coming to her senses, she first called Daryl to confirm Ivy was okay. Then, Alice didn’t go to the inpatient department but went
straight back to her apartment.
Mira was thrilled to know she was coming back to stay and even bought a lot of ingredients to make a sumptuous dinner for Alice.
Mira’s cooking was indeed good: cheese pasta, fish soup, boiled shrimp…
Even if Alice wasn’t very hungry, she was tempted.
Mira, knowing she went to the beach today, curiously asked, “Did the business deal at the beach go well? I saw you wearing that ugly swimsuit. Didn’t the client mind p>
Alice thought, not only did he not mind, but he also got aroused.
She sighed and recounted the day’s events in detail.
Mira was stunned for a long time.
After Alice finished a whole plate of pasta, Mira asked, ‘You mean that jerk was the client, took you jet skiing, and even saved your
life?
He saved himself, Alice corrected.

Mira was even more shocked. “That jerk didn’t throw you into the sea and even saved you. Is he crazy p>
“That jerk had become a nickname for Michael; Mira found it unlucky to call him by his name.
Not knowing what to say, Alice fell silent.
She was also curious why Michael suddenly let her go. It didn’t make sense.
Not only did he let her find a job, but he also let her go today.
With Michael’s temper, if Alice angered him, he would have thrown her on a surfboard and sent her to the middle of the sea,
probably not looking for her for three or four hours.
But he didn’t, which was utterly strange.
Mira whispered, “Do you think he has rekindled old feelings for you p>
‘Impossible,” Alice immediately refuted.
He never had feelings for her, so how could there be old feelings to rekindle? Especially Aurora had returned to him.
Alice licked her lips and suddenly changed the subject, “Let’s not talk about him. Tell me some gossip from work p>
“What gossip?” Mira was puzzled.
Alice thought for a moment. “Just anything in the business world. I can’t get in touch with any big shots now, so I want to hear the
trends p>
When she was at the Johnson Group, she could learn about things in the circle from a single drinking session.
But now that she had left the Johnson Group, she couldn’t get any information.
Luminary Holdings Ltd and the Johnson Group were not on the same level, so the circles were naturally different.
But Mira worked at a big company. Last time, it was Mira who first told her about Aurora being sent away.
Alice licked her lips. “Like if any big shot has hinted at wanting to collaborate, or if any heir has returned, or if anyone has an illegitimate child p>
She really wanted to confirm if the person she had seen was him.
