Chapter 1165

Silas was already waiting for him at the entrance and immediately reported the schedule of the day.

“There’s a meeting this afternoon, you say?” Shane sat on his chair and turned to Silas, who nodded.

“Yes. It’s a meeting regarding the showcase of next season’s luxury branded products.”

“Postpone it to four o’clock. I have to pick the kids up at two,” instructed Shane as he took a sip of his
coffee.

Silas wasn’t too surprised by his boss’ decision.

After all, the man had been picking Connor and Sharon up in the afternoon for the past two days.

The responsibility of doing so fell on him since Thompson Group wasn’t far from the kickboxing hall.

Furthermore, Shane was a good father who would never abandon his duties toward his children.

“By the way, Mr. Shane, the wedding favors you requested have arrived. Shall I have them distributed?”
asked Silas.

The wedding was going to be held the day after tomorrow, so giving out wedding favors was certainly a
must.

That was why Shane had instructed Silas to order a bulk of gifts to be distributed to every employee of
Thompson Group, including those working in its subsidiaries and factories.

“Sure. While you’re at it, get someone to organize a prize drawing event online,” answered Shane as
he glanced through some documents. “Also, we’ll have a one-day sale on every single of our products
—only on the day of the wedding.”

Silas nodded. “Yes, Mr. Shane. I’ll get right to it.”



Shane grunted in response.

In less than half an hour, the hundred over thousand employees of Thompson Group eventually
received word about Shane’s wedding; not only did their boss give every single one of them wedding
favors, but he also gave everyone a slight increment in their salaries.

In the blink of an eye, every employee of Thompson Group happily sent their well-wishes as though it
was New Year.

The internet was just as lively. Netizens were exhilarated to learn that the company had organized such
splendid events in conjunction with its CEO’s wedding.

One could easily walk away with one of Thompson Group’s well-known and luxurious products—such
as a purse or lipstick—from the prize drawing event.

On top of that, those who didn’t win anything would still get to enjoy the one-day sale, and that was
more than delightful enough for some netizens.

In a nutshell, Shane and Natalie’s wedding became the number-one trending topic online, even
drowning out news about certain celebrities.

Even if those celebrities weren’t happy about it, there was nothing they could do. After all, who would
ever dare challenge Shane Thompson?

Meanwhile, Lucy spotted a red, exquisite-looking gift box on her desk as soon as she arrived in the
janitorial department of Thompson Group.

The other employees gazed at her in amusement.

Lucy didn’t know why everyone was staring at her. Thinking there was something strange on her body,
she turned around and took a good look at herself, only to find nothing unusual. Without another



thought, she picked up the red box in puzzlement.

As soon as she did so, the woman felt the gazes on her grow even more bizarre—some appeared
scornful, and some gloating.

Either way, none of them seemed to harbor good intentions.

“What’s this?” Lucy couldn’t help but ask the person next to her, who so happened to be the same
woman from the cafeteria.

“It’s a wedding favor from Mr. Thompson. Every employee gets one,” the woman answered impatiently.

“Wedding favor?” Lucy raised her pitch as her expression turned ghastly.

Those who had been staring at her all this while grew even more excited.

“See? I told you she’d react that way once she finds out what it is. I was right!”

“It’s not like we disagreed with you, though. We knew how she’d respond too. It’s no surprise she’d act
that way, especially after receiving a wedding favor from the man she likes.”

“Tsk, She clearly doesn’t know her place.”

Lucy bit her lip in anger as she heard their jeers and taunts. She squeezed the gift box so tightly that it
nearly became dented.

Now I know what these guys are all up to. They just wanted to see how I’d react after finding out what
this box is! Do they take me as a fool?
