Chapter 570
Chapter 570 Years of Friendship
At first, I actually didn't want to invite my colleagues from the company to attend my child's birthday party. After all, I had been working with the idea of leaving the job soon, and I didn't want to have too much interaction with my colleagues outside of work
But a few days ago, someone heard about my upcoming party and it spread like wildfire in the company before I even finalized the guest list
The R&D department even had a few familiar colleagues discussing what gifts to prepare for my two children
So even though I wanted to quietly avoid bringing up this topic at the company, there would still be people spreading the news for me
Therefore, I decided to give up on my initial idea and simply invited all my colleagues from the R&D department to join the party
Fortunately, when we bought souvenirs and invitations before, Aaron and I specifically prepared more than the originally planned number of guests, so we wouldn't run out at this moment
But just when my colleagues and I were happily discussing what activities there would be, the most embarrassing thing happened
Charlie didn't know when he stood behind me, watching as I distributed souvenirs and invitations to my colleagues around me. Then, he loudly called out my name, "Olive, do you have my invitation?"
What's worse, there was also an Emily following
him, clearly just coming to watch the excitement
I can absolutely confirm that the rumors about me and Charlie, not a single employee at Meiling Company hasn't heard of them
Although my colleagues in the R&D department usually have a good relationship with me, at that time they also clearly expressed their disbelief in those baseless rumors
But they couldn't stop people from other departments from making random guesses after all
At this moment, when people were coming and going in the pantry, Charlie stood here and proactively asked me about the invitation
Almost all the colleagues who came over to get coffee heard it
There were people, like Emily, who gathered around to watch the excitement. Some even started exchanging glances with their friends nearby. I didn't need to guess, I knew they were probably concocting another love story about me in their minds

The previous rumors seemed to have disappeared, but it was only because I warned them once. However, after realizing Charlie's impure intentions, I deliberately avoided suspicion for a while, which left everyone in the company speechless
But now, the male protagonist of the story stands here, smiling at me, as if to say that if I don't invite him to the party, he won't leave from here. It gives those imaginative little girls a great space for imagination
I tried my best not to let my embarrassment
show on my face, and I put on a polite smile. I was about to address him as "Mr. Marilyn" and tell him that I thought he was still on a business trip, so I didn't prepare his invitation card
But Emily beat me to it and sarcastically leaned on the desk behind and said, "Mr. Marilyn, you better stop asking. Olive has always been casual in her work, not even inviting me, her longtime friend, let alone you."
"But I saw that it seemed like everyone in the R&D department had it?"
Charlie didn't know what madness had gotten into him that day. In the past, although Emily had spoken ill of me in front of him, he always maintained a silent smile, without any indication. As a result, Emily would always leave disappointed
But this time, he actually broke the record and answered Emily's words, which made both Emily and me feel excited

However, she was excited while I was panicked, afraid that Charlie would say something thought-provoking here
"Years of friendship, of course, come with an invitation. And Mr. Marilyn, you are my boss, and you just recently tailored such a great project for me. I am throwing a party, so of course, I have to invite you too."
I gritted my teeth and smiled as I replied to the two people in front of me. I turned around and took out two sets of invitations and souvenirs from an unused desk in the office area, and personally handed them to Emily and Charlie
"Next Saturday, the address is on the invitation
card. Please make sure everyone comes to celebrate my children's first birthday."
Emily raised an eyebrow and glanced at the invitation in her hand. She seemed to think that she had finally turned the tables on me. She smiled mischievously and shook the paper bag in her hand, saying, "Thank you, Olive. My husband and I will arrive at the Morris estate on time to celebrate the children of our old friends turning one year old."
She always had to mention her husband no matter when
I suddenly remembered the incident when Vincent stopped me in the underground parking lot. I couldn't help but feel a chill in my heart, and my face turned unpleasant. I was about to tell her that it would be better if I came alone when I noticed that Charlie's gaze also became
gloomy the next moment
