Chapter 356 Sour Grapes
Megan spotted the girl and assumed a commanding tone, her voice. dripping
with condescension.
Sophie once worked at the former Shangrila Group too. She was hir
back as one of the leaders in the HR department, working under
Megan.
“I'm sorry, Megan. My mother fell ill. I admitted her to the hospital before coming
straight over.”
Sophie knew Megan had a reputation for being harsh, so she would not miss the
latter’s birthday party unnecessarily.
She rushed over to the venue without getting home for a change of clothes. Still,
it gave Megan a reason to rip into Sophie.
Megan would not have any of it. She pulled a long face and gave Sophie a piece
of her mind.
Swallowing her discontent, Sophie avoided talking to the leaders and sought
solace in a quiet corner, only to find Kaze there.
“Hello, sir. Thank you for letting me catch the ride ahead of you.”
Thinking Kaze belonged to higher management, Sophie expressed her sincere
gratitude.
“I'm Kaze. No need to call me “sir”."
Kaze smiled and chatted with Sophie.
“The two unpopular kids can only seek comfort in each other.”
Megan scoffed.
“I heard you got a new car, Megan. What is it?” the person next to

Megan.”
“We've had a tough two years, and we can't afford a car like that anymore. I
guess Megan is doing well in her career.”
The room was filled with envious gasps.
The senior executives of Shangrila Group would not have a problem buying a
Porsche Cayenne two years ago.
Back then, Shangrila Group was thriving and expanding rapidly. The pioneers
who started the business with James enjoyed high incomes. and stock options.
Many became multimillionaires.
At the time, most believed Shangrila Group would continue to grow, so they
bought the best houses and cars on credit while using their cash to invest.
