Oops I Banged the CEO novel Chapter 52

At that moment, nearly everyone in the office was glued to their screens, firing off reaction gifs and emojis as they watched the drama unfold.

It was clear this wasn’t going to blow over anytime soon.

Yvonne was starting to get annoyed.

She didn’t reply, but Marico finally stepped in.

The man who almost never said a word in the company group chat had already broken his silence with two messages that morning. Now, his tone was nothing like the gentle calm from before.

Marico: This group chat is for official announcements only. No more idle chatter!

The second his message dropped, everyone who’d been happily gossiping went dead quiet. Notifications flooded in as people scrambled to react.

“William, set the group so only I can post. Mute everyone else.” Marico’s handsome face was cold and severe as he spoke.

William immediately grabbed his phone and made the change.

“All set.”

After the all-staff mute notification popped up, the frenetic stream of messages vanished.

Marico: Linda, as a department head, if every business requires a colleague who can’t hold their liquor to tag along, maybe you should reconsider your approach.

Hundreds of people reading that message seemed to feel the pressure through the screen—a wave of unease rippling through the office.

The lively gossip ground to a halt. Everyone held their breath, nerves on edge.

But Marico wasn’t finished. He continued: Take a few days off to recover. Grace has proven herself—she’ll be joining you as co-director and will help manage the Planning Department.

Grace. Yes, that Grace.

When the message landed, Nydia rubbed her eyes as if she couldn’t believe what she was seeing. A few seconds later, she shrieked.

“Grace, you got promoted! Oh my god!” Nydia was always the energetic type; she tossed her phone aside and threw her arms around Grace.
