Information that makes emotions

August's POV

Finally, the important meeting today ended well. Discussing business requires concentration and well-prepared documents. Luckily, I have a great team whose performance I can rely on.

"Thank you for today. You all worked well. I'm glad to work with you. Alright, to appreciate your hard work, I'll treat you all to dinner." Occasionally, giving them a small reward isn't a bad idea. I do this to keep them motivated.

"Mr. August, you're so generous. We're thrilled to have dinner together today," one of my employees said happily.

Of course, they're happy. I've been quite cold toward them today, so something was needed to lighten the mood, especially after today's work drained their energy.

I took them to a restaurant, where a special menu was served at the table. While they enjoyed their dinner, I glanced at my phone, which still had no messages from Ellena. "Why hasn't she contacted me yet?" I thought, slightly worried.
