Chapter 280: A Special Day
Adrian Lancaster didn’t share much with him about his wife.
Soon, the two of them entered the project cooperation process. Since he queued up in the morning to buy soup dumplings for Faye Turner, everything went very smoothly.
This was beyond Adrian Lancaster’s expectations. President Peterson had always been a respected figure and a partner that Prestige Group had wanted to collaborate with for a long time.
In the large office of the design department downstairs, after seeing the news, Faye Turner actually felt a certain psychological pressure. Would he be angry?
"Oh my god, Faye, President Lancaster actually queued up to buy soup dumplings for you?"
"That’s so sweet!"
"Unbelievable!"
"If I married such a handsome husband, I’d be content just seeing him every day."
Facing her colleagues’ envy, although Faye Turner had a smile on her face, there was always a faint worry in her heart.
Afraid that she had caused trouble for Adrian Lancaster again.
She knew well that he didn’t actually love her; everything was just a façade, a partnership between the two.
"Faye, why haven’t you and President Lancaster held a wedding?" A colleague couldn’t help but ask.
As soon as this topic was brought up, others gathered around, "Yeah, Faye, why no wedding?"
"Are you waiting until the baby is born to have it?"
"Even no matter how busy, there’s always time for a wedding, right?"
"Oh, Adrian Lancaster’s wedding must be a wedding of the century! The preliminary preparations must take a long time, can’t just be done casually, right? Faye, are you secretly preparing for it? Is there a specific date?"
Wedding?
This was something that Faye Turner didn’t even dare to think about.
But to avoid awkwardness, she used a smile to cover it up, "Such a private matter, let’s not discuss it during work hours. We have our own plans, but it’s not convenient to disclose too much for now."
"True, even buying dumplings can make the trending news, not to mention a wedding! By then, how many reporters will gather at the company’s front door?"
The colleagues stopped inquiring, each returned to their seats with envious feelings.
Today is Chloe Gable’s birthday, and Faye Turner had it on her mind.
Chloe Gable felt nervous for the first time having a birthday, even went to the mall and spent 300 yuan buying a long-sleeved dress.
For years, Vincent Turner gambled, their son was attending school, and the family was always financially tight.
She had never really dressed up, hadn’t bought clothes for five or six years, and the first time she met Adrian Lancaster, she didn’t think about dressing up.
But today was different. Today she would have dinner at her son-in-law’s wealthy family, and she didn’t want to be dressed worse than the servants there.
She also didn’t want Faye to be talked about behind her back; she wanted to support Faye’s image.
Chloe Gable, who usually didn’t wear makeup, didn’t have cosmetics. Looking in the mirror, she noticed her complexion looked quite sallow.
So, she went to a nearby makeup store and spent 30 yuan to have a layer of powder applied to her face, looking somewhat refreshed.
She did this only because it was the first time visiting her son-in-law’s home, not wanting anyone to laugh at her daughter.
By evening, in the elegant and sophisticated CEO office at Prestige Group.
Dustin Shepherd came over with a document for Adrian Lancaster, who glanced at the time, "Look at it tomorrow, just set it aside for now."
"This is concerning Zenith Pictures’ project; Mr. Rhodes is waiting for your reply." Dustin’s implication was clear; it was urgent.
But Adrian Lancaster got up, casually taking the jacket off the back of the chair, "I have matters to attend to today, you handle it."
After saying this, he walked towards the door and called Faye Turner, "Are you done with work?"
"Have you finished your work?" Faye Turner asked softly.
"Yes."
"Alright, I’ll head down now." With that, Faye started packing her desk, feeling good that he remembered what she told him last night.
Leaving Dustin in the office, feeling a bit chaotic, him handle it?
Comforting President Peterson in the morning and Mr. Rhodes in the evening, right?? Is getting married really that different!
