Chapter 276

Elena

“Guys, group meeting!”

All our heads turned to Rona, who had an impressed look on her face. The ceremony hall would be open in one hour, which meant we still had some time left before it was time for us to switch rooms and take our seats. “Wait, first of all.” Rona looked at us. “The bar looks really pretty, doesn’t it?”

It was not something odd for Rona to jump from one subject to the other. It was something she often did, and we were all used to it. “It does!” One of the girls agreed. Even though Stacey and I started working at the bar around the same time, she was a bit less motivated than I was-but now that there was money involved, everything was different.

“You wanted to tell us something?” I pushed Rona. “Oh, yes!” She spoke. “I—“

“Wait!” Stacey interrupted her. Annoyed, I rolled my eyes and waited for her to speak. She noticed the irritation m my eyes and looked away. “Before you start—I have a question to ask all of you.”

Rona nodded. “Yes, sure-what is it?”

Stacey hummed and tapped her finger on her chin as she looked at all of us. “What should I do with my paycheck? Go on vacation or invest in a new car?”

Everyone laughed, while Rona and I couldn’t even release a chuckle. The joke about the paycheck started as a fun, but it was slowly becoming too much. We were technically working, and we couldn’t screw this up. I usually didn’t care about others’ opinions, but what would the guests think of us?

“Please don’t say stuff like that anymore,” Rona told Stacey, who seemed confused by her cold tone.

“It was just a joke.“

“I know, and I like jokes, but that’s the thing.” Rona said. I stuck out my arm to push Rona to the back so that I could take the lead and glared at the group. They were still college students, but I was ready to dedicate my life to the cocktail bar, and despite my interesting personality. I knew when it was time to get

serious.

“Today is a serious day, and I know Tiago and Anya have been so good to us-but let’s not push it,” I warned them. The amount of freedom we had was already too much to ask for, and they most likely did it because they trusted us.

“Let’s just do our best and do our work.”

Everyone stared at me with big eyes as if they were trying to find the reason behind my words. “Wow, Elena-you sound so mature!” Rona joked. “Give her some money, and all sudden, she knows how to act!”

It only took a split second before the group laughed at Rona’s joke while I folded my arms. “I was on your side, but whatever, I mumbled as Rona threw her arm around my shoulder. “You’re right. I’m sorry!”
