With small bridges over flowing water, bamboo fencing, and hanging red lanterns, it had a charming, rustic atmosphere.<\/p>\n<p>Cassidy had booked a private dining room on the second floor. When Stella pushed the door open, she was greeted by a room full of familiar faces. She handed Cassidy a birthday gift and wished her well.<\/p>\n<p>Everyone quickly fell into catching up, complimenting Stella on how much more radiant and confident she looked.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Obviously! Our Stella is running her own apparel factory now. She&#8217;s a boss!&#8221; Cassidy boasted proudly.<\/p>\n<p>Stella reached over and playfully pinched Cassidy&#8217;s cheek. &#8220;Keep hyping me up like that, and you&#8217;re going to jinx me!&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Cassidy puffed out her chest, declaring that she didn&#8217;t care about jinxes\u2014she just wanted to brag about her friend.<\/p>\n<p>The whole table erupted in laughter, instantly settling into an easy, lighthearted vibe.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Did you guys hear? It looks like Chloe isn&#8217;t planning to stick around at Mythos Online much longer either,&#8221; one of their former coworkers casually dropped into the conversation.<\/p>\n<p>At the mere mention of Chloe&#8217;s name, Cassidy immediately rolled her eyes. &#8220;Good riddance. She should have left a long time ago. If it weren&#8217;t for her, Stella and I wouldn&#8217;t have had to leave in the first place!&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>After Chloe had relentlessly targeted them, Cassidy had handed in her resignation and moved to a different company. Her disdain for Chloe hadn&#8217;t faded one bit.<\/p>\n<p>Stella wasn&#8217;t entirely surprised by the news. Jarrod had casually mentioned it before, saying Chloe was planning to leave Royal Oaks. It was a condition Chloe herself had set when she asked Jarrod to go to dinner and a movie with her the other day.<\/p>\n<p>However, Stella&#8217;s departure from Mythos Online hadn&#8217;t been solely because of Chloe.<\/p>\n<p>But Cassidy truly had been pushed out by her.<\/p>\n<p>Thinking of this, Stella offered Cassidy an apologetic smile. &#8220;If you hadn&#8217;t been so close to me, she wouldn&#8217;t have made things so difficult for you.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;That&#8217;s because she&#8217;s petty and narrow-minded. It has nothing to do with you!&#8221; Cassidy brushed it off. &#8220;But if you really feel that guilty about it, when you strike it rich, you can hire me to work for you!&#8221;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"template":"","class_list":["post-3597","chapter","type-chapter","status-publish","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/kampoengnews.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/chapter\/3597","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"http:\/\/kampoengnews.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/chapter"}],"about":[{"href":"http:\/\/kampoengnews.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/chapter"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"http:\/\/kampoengnews.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=3597"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
