Chapter 447

Knowing that all the food had been sent over by the Pearl Tiger Club, the office employees snapped photos of the dishes and even took selfies with the delivery folks.

The entire team was over the moon, thrilled beyond measure. Among them, some approached Calliope with hopeful eyes, asking if they could save their share to take home to their loved ones.

"Ms. Jewell, my wife’s never tasted anything like this. I’d love to bring my portion home for her."

"Yeah, Ms. Jewell, I’d like to save mine for my daughter. Is that okay?"

"I want my boyfriend to try some, too. Last time we passed by the Pearl Tiger Club, he was dying to check it out."

Everyone turned to Calliope, eyes shining with anticipation. They weren’t asking for more, just the chance to share their treat with those they cherished.

With a warm smile, Calliope reassured them, "Of course, but don’t worry about it. Go ahead and eat now, and I’ll have more packed up for everyone to take their share later."

"Really?"

"Wow, you’re the best!"

"But Ms. Jewell, isn’t Pearl Tiger Club super expensive? I heard a single bite costs more than my monthly salary!"

"Please, don’t trouble yourself with more deliveries. We’re happy to take home what’s left."

"Yeah, we can’t let you go to such expense!"

"Honestly, if you keep doing this for us, we’d feel so guilty!"

"Thank you, Ms. Jewell, this is way more than we deserve!"

Calliope smiled at their gratitude. "You all deserve it as long as you complete your work well. Let’s boost our company’s performance, and then we’ll have a celebration feast right at the restaurant! Don’t worry about the cost. The place’s mine—I’m picking up the tab today."

The revelation sent shockwaves through the cafeteria.

"What does it mean?"

"Did I hear that right? Did she just say the Pearl Tiger Club is hers? Isn’t it owned by some mysterious big shot?"

"No way, Ms. Jewell owns it?"

"Franco always listens to her. Maybe she really is the boss!"

"Our president seems a bit wary of Franco and Ms. Jewell too!"

"Ms. Jewell is incredible!"

"Oh my God, I’m becoming more of a fan every minute, so awesome!"

After the initial disbelief, everyone was swept up in excitement. They were dining with the owner of Pearl Tiger Club, and she was treating them to all this amazing food.

One employee couldn’t help but ask, "Ms. Jewell, are you coming back to the company?"

"Yeah, we’d love to have you back! You’re amazing! It really seems like you’d be a great leader!"

Voices rose in unison to support Calliope.

She nodded, smiling warmly. "Yes, I’ll be stepping in, so I’ll need all of your support and cooperation."

"Absolutely! We’re fully on board with you as our leader!"

"You’re so kind, we’ll work hard to repay you, Ms. Jewell!"

"I’ll work my tail off for a chance to dine at Pearl Tiger Club!"

Calliope laughed, "Let’s eat first. We need our strength for all that hard work."

After a few words with Franco, she looked up at Monty and added, "Franco’s going to help out around here too."

"Huh?" Monty blinked, glancing at Franco in disbelief.
