    Chapter 101


    “Don’t sweat it! It was Be who sniffed out the mole in thepany! You might not know, but Linda,


    the HR Manager sent over from the head office, had been fiddling with the attendance records. She


    only showed up for work 78 days in a year, yet she pocketed our full year’s sry and perfect


    attendance bonus. Oh, and don’t forget the year–end bonus.” Keh said.


    Louisa was taken aback, “How did Be find out?”


    “I’m not entirely sure, just heard from the grapevine that Be was going to let Linda off the hook. But


    Linda strutted into the office, spouting a load of trash about Be loud enough for everyone to hear. A


    crowd gathered to watch the drama, and that’s when Be pulled out the evidence and called the


    cops.” Keh said.


    “Be did a great job. She’s amazing!” Louisa was impressed how Be kept her cool when faced with


    such a hostile ex–employee. She had some serious guts.


    “Ms. Bet is truly remarkable! Young yet such a whiz in business!”


    ‘Totally! She’s definitely got the Collins‘ business smarts running in her veins.”


    “She’s definitely a chip off the old Collins block. Just as brilliant as her brothers!”


    “Congrats to Mr. and Mrs. Collins, for having such a wonderful and beautiful daughter. Thepany’s


    in good hands, you guys can breathe easy now.”


    Keh and Louisa, hearing all the praises, couldn’t help but feel ted.


    Initially, they handed thepany to Be just to keep her busy. Little did they know she would do


    such a ster job. It was a sight to behold.


    Serena, eavesdropping from a corner, was green with envy as Be stole the spotlight again. Yet she


    kept a smile on her face, and walked in with some goodies. “Mom, Dad, I’m back. Guess what I got for


    you?”


    “Is it from Bright Restaurant?” Louisa asked.


    “Yes, I heard their stuff is a tough get. Even if you’re loaded, you still have to queue up for a spot!”


    Serena said.


    “Serena, you went queuing for this?” Louisa was instantly concerned.


    “As long as it makes you happy, I don’t mind the wait.” Serena unpacked the items and said with a


    smile, “Let’s eat while it’s still hot!”


    In reality, it was the bodyguard who had to queue. Serena only took the food home after it was handed


    to her. It took minimal effort on her part, but Louisa was already touched. Maybe she could use this


    trick more often to win their hearts.


    “You’re a Collins heiress, let the staff take care of these things next time.” Keh said.


    Upon hearing this, Serena hugged Keh again, “I know you care about me, Dad. I only dare to hug


    you like this when sis isn’t around. Now, let’s sit down and eat!“.


    Keh felt guilty upon hearing this. Serena was the daughter they raised as their own. With Be’s


    return, her status indeed took a hit. She must be feeling upset.


    “Even with Be back, you’re still our daughter. We’ll always look out for you in your future married


    life.” Louisa gently stroked her head, her affection for Serena profound.


    “Thank you!” Serena beamed, “I don’t need anything. As long as I can be with you, take care of you,


    I’m content.”


    “You silly child.” Louisa chuckled, her heart twinged with a hint of sadness. Her daughter was growing


    up too fast.

    Carl ced a document in front of Romeo, “Mr. McMillian, this needs your signature. I’ve checked it,


    everything’s in order.”


    For small–scale contracts like this, Carl would check them first for Romeo.


    Romeo was always busy, and he usually didn’t handle such minor contracts himself.


    Romeo shed a smile, signed the contract with a flourish.,


    “Mr. McMillian, you seem to be in a good mood today?” Carl asked.
