Chapter 242
Violette was totally speechless at that comment.
It was all her own fault!
Why did she accept his gift?!
If she hadn't accepted his gift, it wouldn't be this awkward now.
After hanging up the phone, Violette called Mike: "Why didn't you give me a heads up that you're
throwing me a birthday party?"
"What if you said no if I told you beforehand?" Mike knew her too well. "By telling everyone else first
and then you, there's no way you can refuse."
Violette snorted: "Well, you guys can have fun without me. I'm not going!"
"But I already told Elijah! And that shameless guy actually agreed!" Mike's tone was sarcastic. "Violette,
why did you fall for like such a thick-skinned guy?"
Violette massaged her temples and hung up the phone.
Less than a minute later, Odette called.
"Violette, Elijah's coming! I thought he'd definitely refuse since he's usually so arrogant!" Odette
wondered. "I can never predict his reactions. Is this what makes successful people unique?"
Violette: "Odette, you can't predict a crazy person's reactions either. Can you not look at him through
the rose-colored glasses?"
"Hahaha! Every time you talk about Elijah, you sound so aggressive!" Odette analyzed. "Looks like you
still love him! If you didn't, you wouldn't be so stirred up."
Violette took a big gulp of water and hung up the phone with a random excuse.
She suddenly missed the days when she was too busy to have time for this nonsense.
...
After telling Elijah about the party, Mike went to the bathroom to calm down for a few minutes.
Once he cooled off, he called Joey.
He had deleted Joey's number long ago, but damn it, he still remembered it.
The phone rang for a while before it was answered.
"I thought you wouldn't pick up my call! Why didn't you reply to the message I sent the day before
yesterday?!" Mike had sent Joey an apology text under Violette's threat, but Joey didn't reply.
This had been bothering him.
"You have the right to send messages, and I have the right not to reply." Joey's voice was cold. "Don't
call me for no reason."
"I have a reason! Violette's birthday party this weekend, are you coming?"
"It depends on whether our boss is going."
"Elijah just told me he's coming!"
"Alright, I'll go with him then." Joey said, "I'm really busy right now. Don't call me during work hours."
With that, he hung up.
Mike was filled with rage.
He was just a freaking assistant!
What was he so busy about?!
Even Elijah didn't say that!
Mike was the second boss of the Dennis Group, but did he ever say he's busy?
A moment later, Mike created a group chat with the company's managers.
Group name: Defeat Elijah
The managers, seeing this surprising title, didn't dare to speak in the group.
Mike: This Saturday at the party, we're gonna make Elijah lose big time! Do you guys have All content © N/.ôvel/Dr/ama.Org.
confidence?!
A certain manager: How do we do that?
Mike: Drinking competition, duh! What else?
Everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
