Chapter 618 Sophie's Conjecture
Fraser nodded, "Yes, it's a meeting about the new major blue-blooded brands coming in next quarter."
"This meeting will be postponed until four p.m. At two o'clock, I'm going to pick up the kids." Stanley picked up his coffee and took a sip.
Fraser wasn't surprised that he had made this decision.
After all, for the past two days, he had to pick up the two children every day at noon.
It was because the casual gym was close to the Murphy Group, so he could go and pick up the kids.
And Stanley was a competent father, and never pushed his luck when it came to his children.
"Mr. Murphy, the wedding candy you ordered yesterday has been delivered to the group, should we send it out now?" Fraser looked at Stanley and asked.
The day after tomorrow is Mr. Murphy's wedding, and since it's a wedding, wedding candy is a must.
That's why Mr. Murphy specifically instructed him yesterday to order a batch of wedding candies to be sent to all the employees of the group, including those in the branches and factories. "Yeah, and also get some promotion online, including all of the group's products, with discounts for the day after tomorrow only." Stanley flipped open a file and replied indifferently.
Fraser nodded, "I know, then I'll go arrange it now."
Stanley nodded.
In less than half an hour, more than 100,000 employees of the Murphy Group knew that their boss was going to have a wedding, and for this reason, not only did the boss give them wedding candies, everyone's salary went up a bit.
For a while, all the employees of the Murphy Group were as happy as it was the New Year, and all kinds of words of blessing were incessant.
This includes the internet as well, they have seen the news that Mr. Murphy of the Murphy Group is going to have a wedding, and the Group has given major benefits to the internet for this reason.
For example, such as lottery for a chance to win a bag, lipstick and other luxury items under the name of the Murphy Group.
Of course, even if you don't win, the discount on luxury goods the day after is enough to make some internet users happy.
In short, this day's hot searches were all about Stanley and Violet as well as the Murphy Group, putting down some of the celebrities' research.
Those celebrities were dissatisfied, but there was nothing they could do, they didn't dare to talk to Stanley.
Sophie saw a delicate red box sitting on her desk when she arrived at the cleaning department's office.
The others, meanwhile, stared at her playfully, as if they were watching some kind of good show.
Sophie didn't know why they were looking at her like that, thinking it was because something was wrong with her, then after looking around, she didn't find anything wrong with herself, so she simply stopped looking and took the red box up in confusion.
With the moment she picked it up, she could feel the people looking at her, more strangely, with mockery and gloating.
In short none of them had good intentions.
"What's this?" Sophie couldn't help but ask her colleague at the next table, the older woman from the last time she was at the restaurant.
The women replied with some impatience, "Mr. Murphy's wedding candy, all our employees have it."NôvelDrama.Org is the owner.
"Wedding candy?" Sophie's voice drew up, and her face changed.
The others' eyes got even more excited at the sight.
"See, I told you she'd have a big reaction knowing it was Mr. Murphy's wedding candy, and I was right."
"It's not like we vetoed your words, and besides, we knew she would, after all, she likes Mr. Murphy, and it's a wonder she doesn't react less when she hears about her favorite person's wedding candy."
"Tut, what a lack of self-awareness."
Listening to the taunts of the crowd, Sophie bit her lower lip, and the hands holding the box tightened up, wishing to crush the box.
She finally knew why these people had just looked at her like that, because they knew how she would react when she understood what was in the box, and then laugh at her!
These people are outrageous!
Sophie's eyes turned red as her heart filled with anger.
But on her own, she didn't dare to confront these people, so she could only take a deep breath and suppress this anger, pretending not to know anything, pulling the corners of her mouth and squeezing out a smile before continuing to ask the woman, "Wedding candies? Didn't Mr. Murphy get married?"
"Of course Mr. Murphy is married, he just didn't have the time before and only got the license, not the wedding with his wife, so it's only now." The woman replied dismissively as she ate the expensive wedding candy.
She hated people like Sophie who didn't have any self-awareness the most.
And how dare she presume to have fancy on Mr. Murphy.
Of course, it was possible. There were many girls in the group who liked Mr. Murphy, but none of them said it out loud like Sophie and tried to get the position of Mrs. Murphy.
But Sophie......
The older woman rolled her eyes.
What a waste of her previous care of this woman!
Sophie naturally sensed the woman's revulsion, but didn't care.
These days, it was also clear to her where she stood in the group; no one liked her, they all resented her.
At first she was a little overwhelmed, but after so many days, she was used to it.
Instead of caring about these people, she should have thought about the matter of Stanley holding the wedding.
She by no means believed that Stanley did not have time to hold a wedding, even if he was busy, he could not possibly not squeeze in a day or two of time, right?
How can he love someone and not give her a wedding?
So, Stanley must not love Miss Hunt that much.
Yes, it must be!
Sophie squeezed the box in her hand once again, her heart beating rapidly.
Since they're not that in love, it's for the best that they divorce.
Thinking about it, Sophie took a deep breath and had already decided something in her mind.
She's going to go to Stanley make it clear to Stanley that since he doesn't love Miss Hunt, there should be no wedding and a divorce is the right thing to do! Sophie put the box down and resolutely exited the large office of the cleaning department.
Everyone else in the office froze at the sight.
"What's she doing there?"
"Who knows, maybe she couldn't take the excitement and went out to cry."
"Or maybe it's plucking up the courage to approach Mr. Murphy and confess."
"How can that be?" Some people didn't believe it.
Sophie knew that after she left, those people would talk about her, but she couldn't care less and ran quickly to the elevator and tried to go up.
However, there were two black-clad bodyguards standing at the front of the elevator, and when they saw her coming, they immediately held out their hands to stop her, "What are you doing?" Only then did Sophie realize that there was actually someone guarding the elevator!
Two tall men.
Faced with the strong aura of these two bodyguards pouncing on her, Sophie was balking in her heart.
She clasped both hands together, squeezed them tightly, took a deep breath and gathered her courage to say, "I ...... I want to go upstairs."
The bodyguard frowned, "If you want to go upstairs, go to the normal elevator, this is Mr. Murphy's special elevator, ordinary employees can't enter." How did Sophie not know that?
But the point is, this is the only elevator she can get to the top floor. The other elevators won't get her there!
But she couldn't say she was going to the top floor; if she did, she would immediately be driven away by these two bodyguards.
What should she do?
She had to go up and tell Stanley that he could not marry someone he didn't love.
But she can't get up there!
Just when Sophie was in a difficult and anxious state, a clear sound of high heels came.
Suzy came to them and took off her sunglasses, "I'm going up!"‒‒‒‒‒‒‒
