Offering An Olive Branch


    Soon, the remaining patrons got their turns while I went inside with nor.


    Kate came in to tell me that they had prepared the best masseur for us. During the massage, Eleanor


    and I discussed what had just happened. She smiled, and we grew closer.


    Afterward, I took her to a nearby Crispy Crust. Most knew the restaurant for its pizzas, and we ate while


    I


    continuing our conversation. Eleanor told me about how she had met her boss. I knew she was


    capable, and I felt tempted to be on her side.


    I tried probing, “What will you do if the boss’s wife gives you a hard time?”


    “I haven’t thought that far, but I’ve been involved with him for a long time. I don’t want to make things


    awkward for my boss, but I don’t want to continue life like this. Perhaps I must decide soon. Maybe I’ll


    leave him.”


    “Have you thought it through?” I asked.


    “There’s nothing much to consider. My boss can’t give me what I want, and I can’t stay by his side


    forever. I don’t want to work hard for him only to get nothing. I have my dignity.” Eleanor seemed


    helpless, and I


    knew she still felt for her boss.

    “I’ve done so much for him and owe him nothing. He once helped my dad when we needed money.


    Still, I helped my boss expand his business.” She shook her head disappointedly.


    “He didn’t even let me hold my head high when his wife came to my house. He said the cost of divorce


    was too high, but what about me?”


    I couldn’t help but sigh. It seemed men always had excuses for their selfishness. I said, “Men always


    have excuses. They can never stay loyal, so I can never trust them.”


    Eleanor nodded, “I’ve considered that for a long time. Instead of repaying a debt, I used to expect


    things. from him. I’m disappointed, but he mustpromise if he’s serious about us. I can’t see hope


    from a


    business perspective.


    Then leave him and work with me,” I offered sincerely, “You can manage the marketing department


    there


    I realized I had underutilized Grayson by making him the marketing manager. After all, he was better at


    projects. Also, I didn’t want him to worry about minor issues. Indeed, Icked a capable marketing


    manager, and Eleanor was a perfect fit.


    After all, she had exceptional experience and aggressiveness in marketing. Eleanor’s eyes lit up when


    she


    I nodded solemnly. “Of course I am. The building materials market needs a capable manager. If you


    decide toe, I’ll entrust it to you. If your year–end performance is eptable, I can even give you


    shares. We can discuss your sry, but I’ll offer you the standard in Foswood.”


    I offered an olive branch without hesitation.


    Eleanor beamed with gratitude as she nodded. “I’ll consider it when I get home and call you when I


    decide.”


    I''ll be waiting for the good news!”


    I didn’t return to thepany after saying goodbye to Eleanor. Instead, I went to pick up Ava. Sitting in


    the car, I couldn’t help but feel Eleanor would be a perfect fit. She would have security while I can allow


    Grayson to assist Ryan.


    After all, we only needed to manage Tanum Corporation and Hartz Construction. Since I had yet to


    Introduce Hartz Construction to the world, Grayson would be perfect to care for it.


    Still, I had to await Eleanor’s decision since she had emotional attachments.


    I began feeling tired after sitting in the car for a while. So, I exited the car and stretched before walking


    toward the kindergarten. Unexpectedly, Matthew’s car stopped beside me.
