Yvonne practically pounced on Sabrina with excitement as soon as she saw her. "Sabrina, where have you been this entire week? Why didn't you tell m e anything? I had thought we could go grab a bite a few days ago, only to find out that you were on a business trip. Hey, which city did you go to? Do I get any souvenirs?" she asked playfully.
Yvonne's innocent and sincere smile had always been a soft spot in Sabrina's heart. She looked apologetically at Yvonne and explained, "I'm so sorry, I sort of forgot..."
"Oh, come on, that's totally okay, Sabrina. I was just joking around. I know it's only been a few days since you joined us and you probably haven't gotten your salary yet. You wouldn't have the extra money to get m e anything," said Yvonne with a cheerful smile on her face.
"Sabrina might not have the money, but I do!" Out of nowhere, Ryan decided to join the conversation and said, "So she forgot to buy you something from her business trip, right? How about this, I'll get you something in her place. I'll treat the two of you to dinner tonight. How does that sound?"
"Sure!" Yvonne agreed without hesitation. After all, an invitation from Master Ryan was something that every single woman in the company would kill for.
She wouldn't even dare to dream of being invited to dinner by Master Ryan and knew better than to waste her time on unrealistic fantasy. Naturally, Yvonne could tell that the person that Master Ryan truly wanted to invite was Sabrina all along, so she turned t o look at Sabrina, doe-eyed in excitement.
"I'm sorry, but I don't have time for that." Sabrina rejected the offer mercilessly.
Everyone present, Yvonne, Ryan and the fellow colleagues of the design department around them included, was rendered speechless as to how firmly Sabrina had turned down the invitation.
"Director, can we go up for my payment now? I want to leave as soon as I receive my share," urged Sabrina.
