My Fabulous Girl Boss

Chapter 14

marched forward and kicked Pete. “Who the f*ck asked you to offend Ms. Wolfenden? Don’t you know that she’s a famous entrepreneur in our city? “A sc*m like you isn’t worthy of coveting her!” “Ah! I’m wrong, Gabe! I’m wrong!” “Annoying! Guys! Drag him out and give him a good beating!” barked Gabriel. Sadie and Easton were baffled. The latter, especially, wondered since when was Sadie so influential that the infamous Gabriel was so respectful of her. Gabriel bowed courteously. “Ms. Wolfenden, my underlings don’t know better. Don’t mind them.” Sadie was a little stupefied. “I-It’s okay… You’re too polite, Mr. Bayfield…” Gabriel did not dare look at Kayson and braced himself to keep saying, “Ms. Wolfenden, let me buy your drinks tonight. Feel free to visit any of the places under my care, for free!” “Huh?” Sadie was lost. What was going on? “Well, Ms. Wolfenden, I still have things to take care of. I’ll leave you to enjoy the night!” Gabriel did not want to stay a moment longer as he snapped at the crowd and dissipated them before hurrying upstairs. “Ms. Sade, you’re amazing!” exclaimed Easton. “R-Really…” Sadie was still dazed. At that moment, Kayson spoke up. “Gabriel is scared of me. You guys don’t have to worry about him in the future.” That jolted Sadie as she snapped her head to glare at him. “Stop bullsh*tting, will you? If Gabriel hears you, we’ll be in trouble if he goes back on his word!” “I’m telling the truth!” retorted Kayson. Sadie chuckled coldly. “Would Gabriel know who a bumpkin like you is? Stop flattering yourself!” Kayson gave up on arguing. She could believe whatever she wanted. Easton kept quiet as he contemplated on the side. Sadie lost her mood to drink and dismissed Easton before going home with Kayson. Once she arrived at the mansion, Liam summoned her to his study. Liam started grimly. “I’ve heard that Dickinson International has internally decided to be given to the Gillete Group…” “W-What do we do then? Won’t our efforts be wasted?” Sadie exclaimed in alarm. Liam shook his head. “We still have a shot. I heard that Asoss’ Mr. Tinsley Sr. is having a birthday party in Clouspring the day after tomorrow. Your grandfather’s contacted Mr. Johnson Zigler and asked for a favor to get us the invitation.” Sadie wondered in worry, “Will Mr. Zigler really help us?” “He promised verbally. I think he will,” said Liam. The father and daughter were disheartened. Sadie was even more so when she returned to her room and saw Kayson on the floor. The next day when Kayson went to the office, Easton was even more respectful to him. After work, he went back to the mansion in Sadie and Liam’s car. The father and daughter seemed to have run into some good news as they were in a good mood. They got Hugh to the study once they arrived home. Liam announced, “Dad, we’ve gotten the invitations to Mr. Tinsley Sr.’s birthday party!” Hugh was delighted as well. “Really? It seems that Johnson still acknowledges the favor from back then.” “We get to attend Mr. Tinsley Sr.’s birthday party tomorrow and have the chance to talk to him!” Sadie cheered
