Chapter 232
Chapter 232
Michael hadn’t had other women around for the past two months, and no new hires in the secretarial department, so it should be
only Celestia by his side:
He never shortchanged himself, so maybe the two of them had been together all this time.
Would Michael give more shares for Celestia?
Alice thought it wasn’t impossible.
Michael didn’t dislike Celestia, and there were very few women he would treat like that.
Celestia must have a place in his heart. At least higher than Briar and Clio.
And collaborating with the Savage Group was indeed more beneficial for future development, so Michael had no reason to refuse.
Alice closed her eyes and looked at the empty room. She stood up; she still needed to buy two sets of clothes. Otherwise, she wouldn’t have anything suitable to wear for the ribbon-cutting ceremony tomorrow.
And these clothes couldn’t be reimbursed; she had to pay out of her own pocket.
It seemed she really needed to ask for a bigger share; she indeed loved money.
She left the room and took the service elevator downstairs.
She absolutely didn’t want to run into Michael. If it weren’t for work, she wouldn’t even meet Michael.
Michael and a few others were still chatting in the lobby. Celestia turned and saw Alice leaving through the staff passage.
“Mr. Johnson, it seems Ms. Baker doesn’t want to see us. Do you think she dislikes me being with you p>
Michael also saw Alice but didn’t say anything.
Celestia pouted, “She must be jealous, right? Otherwise, she wouldn’t have sent Ms. Rivera to find us yesterday, don’t you think,
darling p>
Her voice was as charming and seductive as she was.
Clifton raised an eyebrow and instinctively took a few steps back.
Michael frowned slightly. “I’m going out with Mr. Farley for a bit.
You don’t have to tell me that; so cute.” Celestia tapped Michael’s chest with her finger.

Chapter 232
Meanwhile, Alice had already reached the mall. She casually bought two suitable outfits, some underwear, and toiletries.
She couldn’t help but gasp; the prices in Sovereign City’s mall were really high, even higher than in Suncrest City.
If these two areas were developed simultaneously, it would definitely require a lot of investment.
But that’s good; the more investment, the greater the return, and she could get more money.
Seeing there was still enough time, she went to a nearby electronics store.
The last time she saw Daryl, his phone was still an old model from a few years ago. She thought she should get him a new one.
After picking out a phone, she received a video call from Daryl.
“Alice, I’ve arrived at the hospital, don’t worry p>
Daryl, looking travel-worn, was walking towards the ward.
Alice found a corner in a café and ordered a coffee. “You are quick. By the way, I just bought a new phone for you. I’ll give it to you
when I get back p>
“Alice, there’s no need. My phone still works fine.” Daryl shook his head repeatedly.
Alice smiled, “You’re like a little brother to me. What’s wrong with giving you a small gift? I’ll give it to you when I get back, consider it a reward for your hard work p>
“By the way, my mom wants to find a house. Can you help me look for one that’s cheap, in a good location, and doesn’t require a high down payment p>
As soon as Alice finished speaking, she suddenly had the feeling of being secretly photographed again and turn her head.
But there were many people in the café, and she couldn’t see where the person was. What was going on?
