In the private dining room, besides Henrik, there was a girl all geared up.
When Flora and Connor walked in, the girl quickly greeted them.
"Ms. Flora! Long tno see!" She took off her sunglasses and mask, revealing eyes that sparkled with laughter. It was Cecelia.
"Hey, big brother." Connor nodded slightly at Henrik in greeting.

His long, elegant hand rested on Flora's waist, exuding a cool dominance with a touch of warmth. So, this is Ms. Flora's fiancé. Oh my, he's so handsome!!! Totally outshining all the young stars in the entertainment industry! "Ahem!" Seeing her staring at Connor, Henrik's face darkened a bit.
Cecelia snapped out of it, feeling a twinge of guilt. She'd been mesmerized by Ms. Flora's fiancé. Ms. Flora wouldn't be mad, would she? She quickly averted her gaze and looked at Flora. "Ms. Flora, the one-month deadline is up!" "Huh?" Connor pulled out a chair for Flora to sit, looking a bit puzzled. What one-month deadline? Seeing Flora's confusion, Cecelia hurriedly explained, "You said if I could refrain from swearing for a month, you would..." Flora remembered, and seeing Cecelia's eager face, she couldn't help but smile slightly.
"You've been quite the peacekeeper lately." Henrik couldn't help but chin. Cecelia was impulsive and easily offended people, throwing insults at the drop of a hat. She had no sense of subtlety and often rubbed people the wrong way in the industry. This past month, likely keeping her promise to Flora in mind, she had becmuch more composed and didn't cause trouble like before.
Henrik suddenly realized that Flora's words had more impact than his as her boss.
Hearing Henrik also compliment her, Cecelia was even more delighted, holding her chin high, ready to bask in the praise.
Flora propped her chin on her hand, looked at Cecelia for a moment, and said, "If you can keep this up for another two months-no swearing, no fighting, and behaving O properly-I'll give you a big gift." "What kind of gift?!" When Ms. Flora gives a gift, it's bound to be something extraordinary! Cecelia was instantly energized! "An opportunity... to step onto the international stage and beca top celebrity." Cecelia was stunned.
Coming from a humble background, she was often ridiculed in the entertainment industry, deemed too unsophisticated for many high-end brands to consider her. Now, Flora was offering her a chance to go international! "Ms. Flora, I love you so much, sob sob, how can you be so kind." "Alright, let's eat now." Henrik handed the menu to Flora.
He hadn't planned on bringing Cecelia along, but when she heard he was going to meet Flora, she insisted on coming and climbed into his car, refusing to leave. He had no choice but to bring her along.
Flora didn't look at the menu but passed it directly to Connor.
And Connor ordered all of her favorites.

The aroma of meat was enticing, appealing to the senses, and whetting the appetite.
Cecelia, looking at her low-fat meal in front of her and then at the table full of delicious food, was on the verge of tears. She wanted to eat too...
But being prone to gain weight easily, even drinking water could make her e fat, she had to control her diet. "Boss... can I have just one piece of meat, just one!" "If you want to be a celebrity, then no." Henrik replied calmly.
Cecelia swallowed hard, grumpily eating her bowl of vegetable salad. With her head down, sulking as she afe, Suddenly, a piece of rib landed in her bowl. She looked up in surprise, only to see Henrik slowly putting down the serving chopsticks.
Cecelia beamed with delight.
The boss was really nice after all! X
