Medea, noticing Lisha's lukewarm impression of the new employee, echoed, "Yes, maybe Mr. Aniston just wants to take this opportunity to reward us for our hard work. Let's go, Ms. Walsh. It's about time."

On the way to the hotel, Meryl took out her phone and sent Chandler a message: [Did you arrange this dinner? That's too expensive.]

The minimum consumption required six figures, and Meryl felt it was too costly.

Chandler quickly replied: [Mrs. Aniston, warmly congratulate you for joining Galaxy Holdings Group President's Office. This is the gift I give you. Have fun, and don't feel any burden.]

Meryl pressed her lips and gently put down her phone.

Although the money was nothing to Chandler, Meryl couldn't help but feel deeply touched.

No one had ever spent so much money on her. She recognized that Chandler's intention was to facilitate good relationships among her colleagues, promote rapid integration into the group, and encourage dedication to work. 2/5

Chapter 65 Encounter Her Ex-Boyfriend Freya, who sat in the passenger seat, was the same age as Meryl.

Noticing that Meryl had been on her phone since getting in the car, she turned around and asked curiously, "Meryl, do you have a boyfriend?"

Before Meryl could respond, Josh couldn't help but cough.

Not only did she have a boyfriend, but her boyfriend was a powerful figure in Kingsdom. After breaking up, Meryl even beat her ex-boyfriend, resulting in his hospitalization.

Despite learning Meryl's identity in the morning, Josh chose to keep this information to himself.

After all, it was personal privacy. And those within the President's Office were very tight-lipped. However, Josh felt amazed that someone from a wealthy background had become his subordinate. He felt a determination to provide Meryl with proper training and support!

Worried that Meryl would be embarrassed, Josh quickly intervened, saying, "Freya, stop gossiping." With just the three of them comprising Division Two, their interactions were very casual and amicable. Freya blinked blamelessly.

3/5

Being occupied with work today, she hadn't had a chance to properly greet Meryl upon her arrival in Division Two. So, now, she just wanted to find a random topic to chat about. Realizing the suddenness of her question, Freya felt awkward. She sheepishly scratched her hair, thinking that she would have a couple of drinks with Meryl later as an apology.

As soon as she got out of the car, Meryl's phone rang.

Meryl gestured for them to enter first while she stood at the hotel entrance to answer the phone.

It was Bianca calling. "Meryl, you must go on a blind date at 7 o'clock tomorrow night at Cedar. I personally picked the man. He is good-looking and very kind. I'm telling you, don't think that Dalton will change his mind about you because you've joined Galaxy Holdings Group. He doesn't care about you at all."

It was at the Kingsdom Hotel parking lot.

Lydia and Dalton got out of the car.

Dalton had been absent-minded on the way. Lydia didn't know what he was thinking about.

According to Elias, he had been in a bad mood the whole day. Several employees ran into problems with him and were kicked out of the office.

Initially, Lydia intended to ask why Dalton wanted to help Meryl join Galaxy Holdings Group and whether he still had romantic

Chapter 65 Encounter Her Ex-Boyfriend feelings for her.

4/5

However, she hesitated, fearing that such questions might upset Dalton and end up making things worse.

She gently held Dalton's arm and uttered, "Dalton, let's go in."

As Dalton stepped forward, he unexpectedly caught sight of a familiar figure standing at the hotel entrance.

His eyes narrowed slightly, a flicker of surprise gleaming within them.

Seeing Dalton stop, Lydia instinctively redirected her gaze to see what had caught his attention. It was then that she noticed Meryl standing outside Kingsdom Hotel, seemingly talking on the phone. "Why is she here?" Lydia thought.

Unintentionally, she clenched her fingers tightly, causing Dalton to furrow his brows and glance down at his sleeves.

Startled, Lydia quickly loosened her grip, raised her face, and smiled at Dalton, saying, "Seems like Meryl hasn't given up on you yet, Dalton. It's all because you are too charming."

Her words carried a slight hint of dissatisfaction, but more of it was admiration for him.

Dalton remained silent, yet inexplicably, the gloom that weighed on him all day faded a lot.

Chapter 65 Encounter Her Ex-Boyfriend He knew that Meryl still had feelings for him.

Otherwise, why would she frequently appear in front of him?

5/5

She was the same as before, except that she approached him in a different way compared to her previous persistence.

It was a more clever move, and he did notice her.

Sensing two sets of eyes behind her, Meryl turned around.

"Meryl, what are you doing here? Are you following us?" Lydia frowned.
