The moment the idea popped up in her head, Luna immediately suppressed it.
She shook her head. What was she thinking?
Someone like Fiona would never be the one whose bone marrow was compatible with Nigel. Even if she
was, would she so selflessly donate her bone marrow to Luna’s son and ask for nothing in return?
Impossible.
The day after Nigel was discharged from hospital, Luna returned to work at the Lynch Group.
Shannon organized a simple welcoming party for her.
The moment Luna pushed open the doors to the office, everyone handed her a flower one by one.
“Director Luna, welcome back! “
“Director Luna, congratulations on your son’s healthy recovery! “
“I hope some of your good luck rubs off on me! I wish Director Luna’s son a long and happy life! “
Shannon, Bonnie, and Arianna who had recovered from her burns and returned to work…
Out of the entire office, only two staff members did not present her with a flower distributed by Shannon.
One of them was Fiona who was sitting in
the corner, and the other was Fiona’s lackey, Charmaine Ross.
After everyone presented her with flowers and gave her their well-wishes, as if she suddenly
remembered something, Charmaine suddenly stuffed the flower Shannon distributed to her into Fiona’s
hands.
”Fiona, I too wish you good health and a long life! ” Then she sneered and looked at Shannon in disdain.
” Both of you work in the same office, Fiona was sick and had an operation too , but how come no one is
offering her well-wishes? Just because someone’s son has recovered, so many of you are as happy as if
your own fathers have recovered. Hah, treating someone’s son as your own father, why don’t you just
address her as your grandmother? You’ve even resorted to using flowers to curry favor with her,
why don’t all of you just kneel down and address her as your grandmother! Ptui! ”
Charmaine’s words made the originally lively atmosphere in the office turn silent in an instant. Shannon
was so angry her eyebrows almost turned into two upside-down v’s.
”Director Luna’s son just recovered from a critical illness ! What’s wrong with congratulating her and
giving her well-wishes?”
Shannon initially intended to bring everyone to Luna’s house to visit Nigel and they would all give him a
gift card. The kid just escaped the gates of hell, according to custom, this is what they should have done,
to express their well-wishes!
But her suggestion was rejected by Luna firmly, Luna did not want everyone to spend money on her and
Nigel. That’s why Shannon thought of this idea, so everyone could express their well-wishes when Luna
returned to work.
And yet Charmaine was using this to insult them? And with such ugly words at that?
“Charmaine.“ Fiona frowned, glancing at Charmaine reproachfully, her voice as soft and gentle as ever. “
What nonsense are you saying? Ms. Luna is the director of the design department after all, and her son
was seriously ill. To take care of him, she even took a week off work. Now that she’s back, it’s normal for
everyone to celebrate the happy occasion. You should not have said those things…“
Charmaine’s eyebrows screwed tightly together at the other woman’s words. She refused to comply. “
But Fiona, you had an operation too, but no one offered you any well-wishes! “
Fiona sighed, “I ‘m new to the company, everyone isn’t close to me yet, it’s only normal if they don’t want
to offer me their well-wishes…“
Beside them, Samson frowned, looking at Fiona with cold eyes. “What do you mean everyone doesn’t
want to wish you well? If you were diagnosed with leukemia and were at death’s door a few times then
finally recovered after a bone marrow transplant, we would offer you our well-wishes too! “
Fiona curled her lips and laughed softly. She looked at Samson and said gently, “But Director Luna
wasn’t ill either.“
