Chapter 580

Even if Aria and Owen were to get married someday, it seemed the Saxons would have no place in her life.

Gloria looked at her and sighed again. “That girl… oh well. She’ll never acknowledge us as family. Let’s just pretend the baby mix-up never happened. Having Silvia is enough.”

“Still…” Gloria hesitated, recalling the recent events at the hospital, then asked, “Does Caleb have any idea where Aria was during those missing ten years?”

Zoe shook her head. “No leads at all-not a single trace. She was most likely overseas.”

Gloria frowned. “She must have suffered terribly.”

Aria was abducted at ten.

Neither of them dared to dwell on the thought any further.

On Black Friday, to do something different, Johnny didn’t make his single employees work overtime.

Someone wailed, “Oh come on, Mr. Oconnor, you’re such a double standard!”

A girl complained, “Yeah! By the time we get off work, all the restaurants will be full. I still need to have dinner with my boyfriend!”

After sending out the notice, Johnny asked his assistant Tilda Enoch to fetch the latest mock-ups from the advertising department.

When the team couldn’t decide between the two versions they’d created, Johnny went down personally.

As soon as he arrived, the employees with significant others started protesting.

Johnny snorted, “Well, you can’t have your cake and eat it too.”

An employee protested, “Then you can’t leave either, Mr. Oconnor! You have to delay your departure by an hour.”

Johnny put a hand on his hip and replied cheerfully, “I’m single, so I get to leave early.”

The employee swept his eyes over the young ladies and teased, “You all heard that, right? Mr. Oconnor is single!”

Tilda pressed her lips together, stole a cautious glance at Johnny, then blushed and lowered her head.

Johnny rolled his eyes at the employee. “Quit joking around. Let me see the mock-ups.”

A girl said, “Alright, Mr. Oconnor. Which one do you want to see first?”

As Johnny lowered his head to look over the designs, the office fell silent.

“Let’s go with this one,” Johnny said, pointing to the lower left corner. “I like the way this element was added.”

The employee who heckled chuckled and looked at Silvia. “That was Silvia’s idea,” he said.

Johnny glanced at her with an approving look. “Good work.”

Silvia felt her cheeks flush. “It was a team effort.”

Team One looked a bit deflated, though they kept quiet.

Tilda gave them a pep talk. “We’ll nail it next time!”

Johnny waved his hand. “All right, single folks-you’re dismissed!”

He was about to leave when he got a call from Aria.

Aria said, “I’m coming by to check on the project. I’m almost there.”

Johnny sighed. “I was literally about to clock out.”

Aria was puzzled. “Isn’t there still an hour left?”
