"Give her a separate tent," Hayden replied without hesitation. "She's not an employee of our company, so it's not appropriate to make her stay with the other member of the staff."
"I was thinking the same thing. Actually, I think we can arrange for her to share a tent with you," suggested Eliam nervously. "After all, you are the one who invited Ms. Taylor, and everyone already knows the relationship you two have. Moreover, it's crucial to determine whether someone is suitable or not by considering their compatibility in 'that' aspect as well."
Hayden fell silent as he was not ready to live together with Shelly just yet.
"Give her a separate tent!" Hayden repeated.
"Understood, boss! I'll make the arrangements right away!" Eliam did not probe further, as he was afraid of truly angering his boss and losing his bonus. "About what you said earlier regarding deducting my bonus, were you serious or just trying to scare me?"
"Say one more word, and I'll deduct it for real," Hayden replied sternly.
Eliam immediately hung up, not daring to waste even a second.
Time flew by and it was soon the thirtieth of April.
The team-building event was scheduled for the thirtieth of April and the first of May.
After packing her bags early that morning, Shelly arrived at the Dream Maker headquarters.
Eliam spotted her and waved her over. "Ms. Taylor, you'll ride with my boss later." He led her to the car they would be taking.
The employees would be traveling in a bus, while Hayden would be traveling in his sport utility vehicle.
"Did he tell you about this?" Shelly asked.
