Chapter 150 Team-building
She awkwardly wrapped her arms around his neck and looked at him with crystal-like eyes. “Hubby, how did you know?”
“Well, I’m your husband.”
He k*ssed her l*ps. “Don’t doubt yourself over what others say, okay?”
She looked down shyly. “But I feel I’m… useless in this place.”
“It doesn’t matter. I’m useful enough for the both of us.”
He tightened his embrace. “I remember you’re studying cardiac surgery. You’ll be a brilliant surgeon in the future.”
“Each person has their talents. Perhaps those who mocked you might end up on your operating table.”
Cherise was cheered by Damien’s words and no longer felt defeated.
She sniffled and replied, “Dear, you’re right.”
“Initially, I only wanted to be a heart surgeon.”
Cherise’s grandmother had a heart condition. Since she was young, Cherise had witnessed her grandmother having ch*st pain and needed to take medication immediately.
She wanted to be a doctor to help the sick. She hoped other people in her grandmother’s situation could become healthy again.
Meanwhile, becoming a company’s president was something she did not expect. Therefore, it was normal that she knew nothing about it.
After all, she would eventually return the company to Randall.
With that in mind, Charise breathed a sigh of relief. She turned to Damien and said, “Hubby, you always have such a profound understanding of things.”
Ever since she married him, she had become easily influenced by others.
It was likely because of her insecurity about not belonging to his world. She felt what everyone said about her was true.
But she would not stray from her true self if she had Damien by her side.

Thus, she wrapped her arms around his neck and felt grateful to him. She k*ssed his cheek. before k*ssing him again.
Once tired of being on the rooftop, Cherise followed Damien back to the meeting room in a much better mood.
Everyone was seated in the meeting room, waiting for Cherise and Damien to return.
Cherise blushed as she accepted the name list from Bernard. She read the names. individually and announced that they would get a raise.
Once she finished reading the name list, she looked at how serious everyone was and added, “To celebrate our company’s success, everyone gets to leave work an hour earlier this afternoon. Tonight, I’ll ask Bernard to find a suitable venue for everyone to have dinner.
The crowd looked at Cherise with astonishment. Cherise smiled and continued, “My husband and I won’t attend. So please be at ease and have fun.”
The meeting room fell into silence.
Other than Cherise, everyone suddenly focused on Damien.
Every employee in this meeting room had helped Damien obtain various successes overseas. However, Damien only ever rewarded them with cash.
In actuality, many employees wished for a team-building event. They hoped to get to know each other better outside work.
Unfortunately, the company never organized one, and others also failed at organizing such events. Furthermore, it was hard to match everyone’s schedule. Thus, they never had a gathering till now.
Since their boss never had the habit of having gatherings, everyone wondered whether Cherise’s words had any effect.
Damien leaned into his wheelchair and looked at Cherise’s innocent face. He smiled and said, “Let’s do as Ms. Shaw says.”
“Yay!”
Loud cheers broke out in the meeting room.
Cherise was cheered by the excitement around her. She turned to Bernard and ordered, “When you’re free later, can you book a venue for dinner and karaoke? Put everything on the company’s tab.”
