Chapter 230
“When will he be back?” Natalie asked.
“Who knows?” Elara replied.
Lysander’s birthday was coming up…
She had originally planned to celebrate his birthday with him when he returned.
Unexpectedly, he was so busy every day.
While Elara was chatting with Natalie, Lacey walked over. “Hi, Miss Kensington.”
Elara looked at her and said, “Ms. Maurice, what a coincidence.”
Lacey took the initiative to pour herself a glass of wine and said, “Long time no see. Cheers.”
Elara raised her glass in response. “Did you come here to play by yourself, or—”
“It’s a company gathering,” Lacey said, “Can I sit here for a while?”
“Please help yourself.” Elara asked Lacey to have a seat and said, “Your company has been doing well recently.”
“Yes, it’s alright,” Lacey said.
Daphne entered the company and was now mainly in charge of finance.
Previously, QuickClip had traffic, but the income was average.
After she entered the company, she proposed a plan and solved the problems in profit.
Making money was exactly what Daphne was good at.
In Elara’s previous life, Daphne had also worked in this area in the company.
Lacey said, “She and Mr. Blackwood are getting married soon.”
“So fast?” Elara was quite surprised.
“The two of them have a good relationship,” Lacey said, “She is also capable.”
In the past, Daphne didn’t have the chance.
Now that Asher was willing to give her a chance and had a platform, they were developing quite well.
Elara thought of those two people…
Lacey asked, “By the way, how’s the Windmill Video you mentioned doing?”
Elara looked at her in surprise. “Why are you suddenly asking about this? Do you want to jump ship?”
Lacey said awkwardly, “I was just asking.”
“QuickClip is developing so well now. You probably won’t want to leave, right?” Elara asked.
Now, they were developing better than before and were revenue generating…

Chapter 230
This was the year that they had developed the best.
Lacey said, “I haven’t thought about it yet. I’m just asking.”
“I’ll repeat myself. If you want to come, you can come to me anytime,” Elara said.
Elara had also talked to Billy Walker and Adam about this matter
If she poached Lacey over, they would naturally welcome Lacey
While they were talking, someone walked over and said, “Lacey
Lacey looked up and stood up when she saw who it was. “Ms. Wagner.”
Daphne stood at the side and sized up Elara’s table. “So, Elara is also here. The two of you are quite close.
As she spoke, the corners of her lips curled up. She picked up her cup and toasted Elara. “Long time no see, Miss Kensington.”
Elara remained silent.
Compared to the last time they met, Daphne was very different today.
Her entire person looked bright and beautiful.
Elara remembered that Daphne was Lacey’s follower when she appeared with Lacey.
Unlike now…
Her and Lacey’s roles seemed to have reversed.
Elara said, “Long time no see. It’s been a while since we last met. Ms. Wagner, you’re developing quite well.”
Daphne said confidently, “What can’t kill me will only make me stronger. I’m the same as Asher. We can only rely on our efforts. Unlike you, Miss Kensington, a rich second–generation heiress. You don’t need to do anything. You can lie flat every day.”
Previously, Daphne even had to let Elara treat her to a meal, but now, she was showing off.
Elara said, “You’re indeed strong. You even sound confident when you speak now.”
“Thanks to the tests you gave me, Miss Kensington.” Daphne sized up Elara and remembered that Elara had left her in the lurch when she asked Elara to save her.
In the end, she was hospitalized because of Adair’s men.
Elara did not respond to Daphne.
Daphne didn’t say anything to her. She just glanced at Lacey. “Everyone is there, but you came here alone. Do you feel unhappy drinking with us? Is staying with Miss Kensington more fun?”
Her tone was serious.
Lacey froze. She remembered how Daphne used to be submissive in front of her, but now, Daphne said that about her in front of others.
Elara didn’t expect Daphne to say that to Lacey either.
After Daphne said that to Lacey, her gaze fell on Elara, and her tone became gentle again. “My subordinate is insensible.

We’ve embarrassed ourselves, Miss Kensington. We’ll go back first.”
With that, she left with Lacey,
Elara looked at their backs and felt that it was a little ridiculous.
Natalie asked, “Daphne is so arrogant now? She is even putting on airs.”
“Her husband is the boss of QuickClip. If you continue talking, she’ll ban you later,” said Elara.

“She’s getting married to Asher?” Natalie found it funny. “The two of them are a perfect match. Asher is also quite interesting. He gave up Adair and married her?”
Elara said, “You don’t understand their feelings. They have shared adversity.”
Sometimes, fate was predestined.
Asher and Daphne would eventually get together no matter what they had gone through.

Natalie said, “Daphne is quite funny. She’s showing off now. I admit that QuickClip is popular now, but what’s she so proud of? Although she didn’t scold us, I saw how she scolded Lacey, and I felt angry. She’s scolding us indirectly.”
Elara smiled when she saw Natalie’s disdainful look. “Don’t be angry.”
Ever since Daphne stole Natalie’s dress, Natalie had always hated Daphne.
Unexpectedly, they met here today.

Lacey followed behind Daphne. Daphne walked in front and said, “Do you want to curry favor with Elara? Why don’t you resign and go to her place? You’ve been trying to hook up with her anyway.”
Lacey said, “I just happened to see her and went to say hello. I didn’t mean anything else.”
Daphne turned around and glanced at her.
This glance made Lacey very uncomfortable.
Daphne brought Lacey back to the private room. Asher was already there.
He was sitting there. A smile appeared on Daphne’s face when she saw him, and she walked over. “What brings you here?”
Lacey stood at the side and observed everything…
She realized that Daphne was like a different person in front of Asher,
‘No… She is now a different person from before when she was my subordinate,‘ Lacey thought.
For someone like Daphne, once she obtained power, her subordinates would not have an easy time.
Lacey thought about how she had followed Asher to where she was today. Now that Daphne was marrying Asher, Daphne would immediately ride on the back of her.
Not only that. Daphne liked meddling in everything as if everyone had to listen to her.
Daphne sat beside Asher, looked at him, and said, “I just saw Elara.”
“Where is she?” Asher asked.

“Drinking over there, with Natalie,” said Daphne.

“Forget it. I don’t want to see her either.” In any case, every time he saw Elara, he would only embarrass himself.
He was no longer interested.
He thought it was better not to see her.
Daphne said, “I thought you would be willing to see her.”
Asher looked at Daphne and said, “You’re wrong then.”
“Do you want to drink for a while, or should we go home now?” Daphne asked.
“Let’s go back now.” Asher was not interested in drinking now.
There had been a lot going on in the company recently.
He was busy every day.
Therefore, he and Daphne left first.
However, when they came out, they still saw Elara.
She walked with Natalie and pretended not to see Asher.
She had always been like this…
Asher thought, ‘I know you look down on me, but I also look down on you
He opened the door and got into the car with Daphne.
Daphne said, “Should we give them a ride?”
“Do you think they need it?” Asher asked.
“Stop the car. I’ll say hello to them,” said Daphne.
now.‘
