Chapter 235

“Thank you, Miss Stone.” The employees were grinning from ear to ear when they got the lipsticks.

These were limited-edition lipsticks from a high-end cosmetic brand. One of the employees had always wanted to buy it but couldn’t bring herself to, and neither could she get her hands on it.

Now, someone gave it to her.

In an instant, the reputation of Sawyer Group’s future leading lady as a generous person began to spread within the company.

Every day since then, Hayley heard all sorts of compliments when she came to the office, which was exactly the outcome she wanted.

She prepared a bunch of branded gifts as well, and would give them to anyone who praised her. Her popularity in the office was even higher than that of the humorous Kieran.

“Miss Stone is such a good person. She’s so gentle and generous. I love her to death!”

“Me too!”

When Kieran returned to the office, he couldn’t help but frown when he heard these gossips.

For the sake of his icy brother, Hayley not only brought him lunch every day, but also tried to gain popularity among the employees.

She figured this woman was quite scheming, First, she went to the Sawyer Residence to meet with his brother, then she got someone to take ambiguous photos and publish them on the Internet to force a marriage.

Now that it wasn’t possible to use the public opinion on the Internet to force a marriage, she changed her methods and played a nice person to establish a gentle and virtuous persona?

She even knew to start with the employees and let their opinions stabilize her position.

Kieran knocked on the table in front of him before saying solemnly, “It’s office hours now. Do you want to go home and talk to your hearts’ content?”

“Master Kieran, Miss Stone asked us to combine work and leisure.”

An employee was a little afraid to see Kieran angry for the first time, so she brought up Hayley. At any rate, she was his future sister-in-law, so they figured he wouldn’t humiliate her…

When Kieran heard this, his face darkened. Hayley bought them over so well that employees of Sawyer Group were actually speaking up for her?

He answered coldly, “If you want to combine work and leisure, go work at Stone Enterprise.”

“We were wrong…”

Seeing that Kieran was truly angry, the employees immediately lowered their heads and apologized before quickly returning to their seats.

However, those employees couldn’t help but think, They‘re obviously going to become a family. Why is he still dividing Sawyer Group and Stone Enterprise? Why are the rich so complicated?

Despite that, this had nothing to do with them. It was important for them to keep their jobs, so the most they would do was to not mention this in front of Kieran in the future.

“From now on, speak less of this kind of gossip. Sawyer Group pays you not to hang around and do nothing. Carry on with your work.”

Looking at their expressions, Kieran knew what this group of employees were thinking. Of course, they didn’t know about the internal matters, so they spoke up for her after receiving benefits.

He had always been more relaxed with the employees and didn’t really care about such matters, but it was best to not let his brother hear these sorts of remarks. Otherwise, there was no telling what the consequences would be.

He sighed. After making that statement, he took the elevator to the top floor to look for Nicholas.

As soon as he entered the room, he saw an eye-catching lunch box on Nicholas’ table, and he figured Hayley had sent it. Although his brother didn’t touch it, he found it a sore sight.

Kieran frowned again. “Nicholas, you’re not really going to obey grandpa and marry that Hayley woman, right?”

Although it was the old man’s request and they couldn’t disobey his wishes, Nicholas didn’t seem like someone who was so easily ordered around.

He wouldn’t possibly accept it wholeheartedly, But, if he wasn’t going to accept it, then what was he doing?

Kieran couldn’t see through his brother’s thoughts, and he felt that his brother had been a little strange lately, but he couldn’t tell exactly what was strange about him.

Nicholas replied coldly, “If you’re just here to gossip, get out.”

“No, Nicholas. I was just asking a casual question. I came to you to talk business.”

Kieran’s expression turned bitter at once. He just asked one question. What was he so fierce for?
