Unwilling Trophy Wife (Serena and Victor) novel Chapter 188

Regina smiled, “Ms. Gray, you should take a closer look at the salary and benefits. Since I came here today to find you, I definitely came prepared

Regina saw how firm Serena was, but she wasn’t giving up. “I’ve already done my research on Brannon Creative Group. The company’s heart doing well these past few years, but Keith isn’t planning to stick with just design work, is he?”

“Someone with your skills deserves better

“1

Regina added.

Serena looked at the number on the contract. It was double what she was making now. The figure was completely unexpected, but she didn’t let herself get carried away by it.

“I’ll be straight with you,” Regina said calmly. “My father wants me to follow his rules and live by his orders. So I’m planning to use my own resources to

start a new company.

“That’s the only way I can escape his control, which is why I’m taking this new company very seriously. Whatever resources you want, Ms. Gray, I can work to get them for you.”

Regina’s eyes were completely serious as she spoke. Serena could tell she wasn’t lying, and she knew that working for Regina’s company would probably mean better treatment.

But in the end, she shook her head. “Keith isn’t just my boss. He’s also my friend. When I desperately needed a job back home, he offered me this position. I’m grateful to him.

“People are naturally self–interested, but if you don’t have a conscience, you probably can’t succeed at anything.”

Serena’s eyes sparkled with a quiet intensity, like sunlight dancing on still water. Regina had been expecting this answer, but it still struck her as a bit naive.

“Everyone’s just looking out for themselves, right?‘ Regina thought. But under Serena’s sincere look, she couldn’t find a single word to argue back.

“Of course, I really appreciate Ms. Aniston recognizing my work. If you need anything in the future, feel free to come to me for design work. We can just go through the normal contract process,” Serena said, turning down the offer smoothly without leaving any room for argument.

Regina lost her momentum and leaned back in the booth, shaking her head with a laugh. “Alright, I get it. But it’s really too bad. I genuinely love your designs.”

Serena’s expression softened. “That’s okay. At least we can still talk about your wedding suite design right now. If you and your fiancé have any specific elements you want, just let me know ahead of time.”

They spent some time discussing design details, and the more Regina watched Serena work with such dedication, the more disappointed she felt about losing her. ‘How can I bankrupt Brannon Creative Group?‘ she thought dangerously.

After they finished talking business, Regina sighed with genuine regret. “If you ever change your mind and want a new job, you can always come to me.” She and Serena had already exchanged contact information.

“Of course, if you need any help with anything, feel free to come to me. I can tell you’re someone who appreciates kindness, so maybe you’ll consider jumping ship and coming to work for me,” Regina chuckled.
