The gathering of the Public Relations Department was held around the swimming pool of Rome Holiday Hotel.
Mary thought that she would have to pay at her own expense. But, it was actually Andy's treat. 'Wow! She's different after becoming a manager. She is rich now.'
"Mary, could you accompany me to buy a swimsuit later this noon?" Jane asked as she came over.
"Hmm... Okay!" Mary wrinkled her nose and wondered if she should also buy one for herself.
"What swimsuit? Where are you going?" Kevin asked. He came out as soon as the elevator door had opened.
"Why are you here? It's almost lunchtime," Jane said.
"I attended a small meeting on behalf of the CEO this morning. I'm here to report the situation." Kevin smiled. "By the way, are you going to have fun? How about I go with you?"
"Go away," Jane said as she waved her hand.
Kevin touched his nose and went straight to the CEO's office happily, without annoyance.
"Jane, can you swim?" asked Mary.
"Of course." Jane nodded. "How about you? Do you know how to swim, Mary?"
"No, I don't. My hometown is not near river or sea so I can't swim," answered Mary as she shook her head.
"Oh, it doesn't matter." Jane smiled. "Swimming is not a big deal. The point is to wear a swimsuit. Anyway, boss won't go..."
Mary said nothing.
As soon as it was time to get off work at noon, Jane could not wait to leave with Mary.
"Women are so crazy." Kevin shook his head. When he turned around, he found that William was standing quietly behind him. "Ah... Boss, are you going to have lunch?"
"Yeah." William put his hands in his pockets. He asked casually, "Where are they going?"
"Oh, they are going shopping," Kevin answered. "I heard that the Public Relations Department has booked a swimming pool in Rome Holiday Hotel. They went to buy swimsuits."
"Swimsuit..." Hearing that, William frowned imperceptibly.
When Mary and Jane came back, both of them were exhausted
Ding!
As soon as the elevator door opened, Mary walked in sullenly.
"You're back?" She heard William's voice suddenly above her head.
"Hmm?" Mary raised her head and stood straight. "Well."
"Hello, boss!" Jane emerged from Mary's behind and saluted.
"Hi." William nodded and was about to step out with his left foot when he stopped. After hesitating for a moment, he asked Mary, "What did you buy just now?"
"Hee hee." Jane could not help but laugh when she heard her boss.
"Go away!" Mary told Jane to leave. She then turned around and answered William, "I went shopping with Jane but I did not buy anything."
"Okay." William snorted and glanced at the shopping bags in Mary's hand. He said nothing but when he turned around to go back to his office, it was obvious that he was unhappy with her answer.
According to the weather forecast, a wave of heat would come to A City this weekend. At this time, Mary felt great. She was lying on the lounge chair in bikini while drinking ice cold beverage and enjoying the cold wind of the room.
"Mary, come down. It's cool in the water!" Jane poked her head out of the swimming pool and greeted Mary with a smile.
"No, I'll take a rest first." Waving her hand, Mary lay back and closed her eyes to rest.
"Mrs. Lan is so leisurely," a coquettish voice said.
