Chapter 90 Darnell's Mockery
Felix continued, "Since the news of our last visit to Starham Mountain was released, the real conditions
in that area have attracted the attention of the public. Many volunteers have entered the mountain with
material donations, and the suspension bridge is being rebuilt. This time, protective ropes have been
specially added, making it safer for children to go to school. Our colleagues in the editorial department
have contributed greatly to this result, especially the members of the group who entered Starham
Mountain. Hereby praise. Give them some applause, guys!"
Everyone applauded immediately.
Thunderous applause resounded in the office.
"The second good news is about the rewards. Firstly, for colleagues who entered Starham Mountain,
your salary this month will be increased by 20% as a reward!"
"Wow!! Thank you, Mr. Tate!"
The crowd shouted and cheered.
The applause was continuous.
"Lina, Lina, we have a salary increase this month!"
Emery was so excited that she hit Catalina with her elbow.
Catalina finally revealed a light smile. "I heard it."
"Mr. Tate, if there is a first reward, do we still have a second reward?" a colleague asked loudly.
"You are really smart! This second reward was personally approved by Mr. Wyatt. To reward us for our
hard work, he specially rented a camping site in the suburbs for our editorial department. Therefore, we
will start our holiday this afternoon and come back to work the day after tomorrow. We will stay at the
camping site tonight, and this reward is only for our editorial department."
"I love Mr. Wyatt! He is the most handsome and manly man in the world!"
The crowd started to flatter Darnell.
Catalina didn't expect that Darnell, as a pampered young master, would be so considerate of his
employees.
"Besides, Mr. Wyatt will be the leader of our camping trip. Isn't that the biggest surprise?"
"Wow!"
The girls were all overjoyed.
"Mr. Tate, can I go home and change my clothes?"
"Me too! Me too! I want to go home and take a shower."
"Me too. If I knew I was going camping with Mr. Wyatt, I wouldn't have worn such an old-fashioned
outfit."
"Well, you do look like a middle-aged woman in this old-fashioned outfit."
"Hey!"
The crowd burst into laughter.
"Alright, Alright. Our third surprise is that this month's most outstanding employee is also in our editorial
department, and the protagonist will be announced tonight during the camping trip. Let it be a surprise
for now."
"Wow! Mr. Tate, you are exceptionally handsome today, just like a sparkling star!"
"Alright, stop the flattery. That doesn't work for me. Go back to work, and we will set off at 2 p. m."
"Great!"
Since Felix announced such good news, all colleagues had been disinterested in their work. The girls
were all huddled in their positions, putting on makeup for themselves. Even Emery, who had always
been infatuated with Bennett, had begun dressing herself up.
"Why are you putting on makeup as well?"
Catalina couldn't help teasing Emery.
Emery was putting on her eye shadow, and when she heard that, she looked up from the mirror and
glanced at Catalina. "I can't give up the whole forest just because of one tree, can I? Besides, this tree
is yours."
Catalina fell silent.
She knew that the tree Emery talked about was referring to Bennett.
She turned back and said, "This tree has never been mine."
"Okay!"
Emery paused for a moment and glanced at her again. "You have been really frustrated lately. What
about turning to another tree today? I think Mr. Wyatt is actually quite good. Look, he is handsome, tall,
and wealthy. Besides, he has quite an outstanding temperament, right?"
"Do you want me to get killed?"
Emery was speechless.
…
At two o'clock in the afternoon, a middle-sized bus arrived at the company gate on time.
Everyone in the editorial department got on the bus orderly, amidst the envious and jealous gazes of
colleagues in other departments.
Catalina and Emery picked a row of double seats by the door and sat down.
After everyone took their seats, there was still one left.
At that moment, a colleague shouted, "Mr. Wyatt is here!"
Everyone subconsciously looked over.
Then they saw Darnell, who was wearing a sea-blue suit, walking elegantly onto the bus.
He was too tall, and the bus had a short roof, so he could only stand with his waist slightly bent and
one hand in his pocket.
Even so, he still looked eye-catching and dazzling.
"It is a pleasure to have you here, Mr. Wyatt!"
As soon as he arrived, there was an instant commotion on the bus.
Catalina had not expected that Darnell would also take the bus with them.
She thought, "According to his style, shouldn't he come in a luxury car?"
"M. Wyatt, please sit here! This seat is specially reserved for you."
Felix hurriedly invited Darnell to take his seat.
Darnell had a special seat.
One and only.
However, he didn't like it.
"Sitting alone is too boring."
As soon as he said so, people sitting in the double seats hurriedly gave up their seats. "Mr. Wyatt, do
you want my seat?"
"You can take mine! My seat is by the window."
Darnell, as if he hadn't heard everyone's invitation, casually pointed to Emery in the front row and said,
"I want your seat."
Catalina had not expected to hear that.
Emery, who was suddenly mentioned, was stunned for a few seconds.
The next moment, she came back to her senses and hurriedly wanted to give up her seat, but she was
stopped by Catalina. Catalina stood up and said, "Please take mine."
Darnell stepped forward and clasped Catalina's shoulder, pushing her back into the chair. "Can't you
tell that I want to sit with you?"
Catalina was silent for a moment.
She couldn't help but complain in her heart, "Can this guy not say such ambiguous words?"
As she had expected, Darnell's words caused a huge uproar on the bus, and all her colleagues looked
over at them meaningfully.
Darnell certainly didn't mind it.
However, Catalina gritted her teeth in anger, for she knew that Darnell was intentional.
Emery felt that something was wrong and quickly slipped away with her backpack in her arms, silently
sitting alone in a single seat.
Darnell sat down contentedly with his hands around his chest and his long legs extended.
The car finally started and headed towards the camping site.
"Did you break up with Ben?"
Darnell asked Catalina with a clear tone of schadenfreude.
Catalina said coldly, "We have never been together, so there is no such thing as breaking up."
Darnell nodded approvingly and looked at Catalina up and down with an indescribable gaze. "That's
true. If Ben really falls in love with someone like you, I will doubt if he's really blind and bewitched."
Catalina fell silent again.
She thought, "He just can't say any good words, can he?
Well, I'd better not look for musk in a dog's kennel."
Catalina closed her eyes and leaned back in her chair, intending to ignore his presence.
She decided to take a nap during the journey.novelbin
However, Darnell had no intention of letting her go.
He deliberately blew at Catalina's small face.
The moist and hot breath sprinkled on Catalina's face, making it instantly turn red.
Catalina could only open her eyes, grit her teeth, and ask in a low voice, "Darnell, what the hell do you
want to do?"
