Wait, She’s a Billionaire (Sheena Lawson) novel Chapter 1444

During his military training days, Lionel had a strong sense of competitiveness, but he just wanted to slack off in this situation.

He was forced into this rat race that he had no desire to win, yet he had no choice but to comply.

It was simply the trials of life.

Feeling extremely dissatisfied, Lionel promptly dialed Elliot's number.

"What's up?" Elliot's voice on the other end was as deep as ever.

Lionel had already prepared himself to be scolded and maybe even have his salary docked, planning to give Elliot a good piece of his mind.

However, his courage quickly waned upon hearing Elliot's casual yet authoritative tone.

He chuckled, resorting to his usual tactic of ingratiating himself.

"Elliot, did you see the trending topic?"

"I did. You did well."

Just that?

Just a lukewarm compliment?

Lionel was not pleased. "Of course, you're happy about this, but I'm the one suffering! I'm a masculine man, but I'm afraid that won't be the case in a few more days."

Elliot, busy typing on his keyboard, chuckled lightly.

"You're married. You can't suddenly turn gay, can you?"

Lionel was left speechless by Elliot's response.

He obviously did not mean that, so he tried a different approach.

"Elliot, this whole thing was just so you could outdo Nathaniel. I was forced into putting on makeup while wearing the maid outfit. Now that it's paying off, don't you think I should get some sort of compensation?"

As he spoke, his voice grew weaker.

"I'll increase your Jenkins Group's year-end bonus. How's that?"

"Very satisfactory!" Lionel suddenly sounded confident. "Well, you go on with your work. I'll get back to scrubbing toilets! I love this type of labor!"

…

Nathaniel and Lionel spent the entire day cleaning the restrooms.

By afternoon, both of them had become so adept at their cleaning methods that they finished an hour ahead of schedule.
