Chapter 1388 Blocking Her Is Fine
Previously, Genevieve had been busy with other matters. When she found out that Yvonne had just
finished her announcement and happened to be in Jadeborough, Genevieve booked a table at Golden
Restaurant for the evening.
It was a welcome party for the newly arrived Yvonne and Scarlette.
Except for James, who was away on a business trip and could not attend, everyone else, including
Scarlette's agent and Charlotte, came together for a meal, creating a lively and bustling atmosphere.
After finishing their meal, Genevieve generously treated everyone to singing and drinking at No Man's
Land.
Sienna joked, “Doesn't Specter Corporation own no Man's Land? Do you even have to pay when
visiting your own place, Ms. Rachford?”
Genevieve waved her hand. “Specter Corporation may own this bar, but it operates independently. I still
have to pay. Otherwise, what if the bar's system puts me on the blocklist?”
In a company setting, everyone was more relaxed, enjoying food and drinks as they please.
Genevieve also offered a cash prize to motivate everyone, stating the person with the best singing
would take the money, while those who did not sing well would be penalized with three glasses of wine.
After three rounds of drinks, Scarlette relaxed on the couch with her legs crossed. Casually, she asked,
“Ms. Rachford, I heard the company organizes birthday parties for the artists. Isn't Jerry's birthday on
the 29th of this month? Will we be celebrating together for him?”
Although Genevieve only returned to work last month, she knew the company indeed organized
birthday parties for some outstanding artists.
She replied, “It's still early for Jerry's birthday. I guess the HR department will arrange something
around the 20th. If you guys don't have any plans for his birthday, you can come and celebrate with
him.”
“Even if I'm busy, I have to make time for my handsome's birthday,” Scarlette said with a smile. Content is property of NôvelDrama.Org.
Everyone chatted about Jerry's birthday party briefly, but the conversation suddenly shifted to
Genevieve, asking her when her birthday was.
Genevieve said, “My birthday is in the summer. At my age, I don't really like celebrating it.”
Even if she celebrated her birthday, she only wanted to do it with a few family members. She did not
want to entertain others on her birthday.
Scarlette curiously asked, “Is it your birthday on the lunar calendar?”
“It's the Gregorian calendar.”
“The calendar dates change every year, but the lunar calendar remains constant.” Scarlette shrugged
and asked everyone, “I always follow the lunar calendar. What about you all?”
Most people around here celebrated their lunar birthdays, but it seems Genevieve celebrated her
Gregorian birthday.
Someone asked when Genevieve's birthday was so that they could prepare a birthday party for her.
They thought it would not be fair if the employees had grand birthday celebrations while their boss had
a cold and lonely one.
Genevieve thought she would rather spend her birthdays coldly and alone.
She did not want everyone to waste their time on her, so she quickly brushed off the topic of her
birthday with a few words. Soon, the private room was lively again with singing and drinking.
Charlotte was troubled, so she barely spoke when she entered the private room and sat sullenly in the
corner by herself.
After picking up the formal attire from the tailor shop in the morning, Charlotte, who had been silent for
days, could no longer help herself. She sent a message to Joash, asking him to urge Jerry to remove
her from the blocklist.
She also called Joash, asking him to pass the phone to Jerry. She kept coaxing him, admitting her
mistake and asking if they could stop giving each other the silent treatment.
For the first time, Charlotte discovered she had such patience in appeasing others. When faced with
someone's cold attitude and silent treatment, it was she who would admit defeat and seek
reconciliation first.
Other than Jiminy, she had never backed down from anyone else in her entire life.
Charlotte found an excuse for herself. After years of breaking up and getting back together, it was
always Jerry who tolerated her and indulged her. After all, people had tempers, and there would be a
day when tempers explode, especially when she was in the wrong.
She thought about the day in the private room. Not only did she scold Jerry, but she also accused him
of pushing his luck, calling him her boy toy.
Anyone would find it unbearable if they were in this situation.
Jerry answered the phone but did not say a single word despite Charlotte's coaxing. In the end, he
hung up without saying whether he would unblock her on WeChat.
He told me I'll be a lackey if I block him again, but he thinks it's okay for him to block me?
