Chapter 495\u00a0<\/p>\n
The baby\u2013faced woman\u2019s eyes shone with excitement. \u201cIt\u2019s no trouble at all, Chief! We\u2019re thrilled to be able to help!\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cAlright,\u201d Larissa said, turning to her secretary. \u201cUrsa, this team of five will be exclusively responsible for the \u2018Heaven\u2019s Will\u2018 project. Whatever they request, you are to approve it immediately without consulting me.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Ursa pulled herself together. \u201c\u2026 Understood, Ms. Judson.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
The staff\u2019s curiosity was now at a fever pitch. Who were these five people that Larissa trusted them with such absolute authority?\u00a0<\/p>\n
The baby\u2013faced woman waved enthusiastically at the stunned employees. \u201cHi everyone, I\u2019m Plum!\u201d she said, then pointed to her companions. \u201cThese two handsome young men are Timber and Winter. And that lovely couple over there are Jade and Gardenia.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
She finished with a sweet smile. \u201cWe look forward to working with you all!\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cRight\u2026 of course\u2026\u201d the employees mumbled back.\u00a0<\/p>\n
What kind of strange names were those? No last names?\u00a0<\/p>\n
Whatever. It didn\u2019t matter who they were. As long as they got their paychecks, they\u2019d do their jobs. All they cared about was that the company didn\u2019t go bankrupt and they didn\u2019t get laid off. Of course, if the company thrived and they got a nice bonus, that would be even better.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cUrsa, find them some desk space,\u201d Larissa instructed.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cYes, Ms. Judson.\u201d Ursa turned to the group. \u201cFollow me.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Plum gave Larissa a cheerful two\u2013handed wave before trailing after Ursa. The other four gave Larissa a respectful nod and followed suit.\u00a0<\/p>\n
With her team settled, Larissa returned to her office to continue working on the script. A few minutes\u00a0<\/p>\n
later, Ursa knocked and entered again.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cHR wanted me to ask, Ms. Judson, should we draw up employment contracts for the new team?\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Larissa didn\u2019t even look up. \u201cNo need. They\u2019re volunteering their time for this.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
If she were to pay them what they were worth, Starlight Media\u2019s entire payroll wouldn\u2019t cover it, and the other employees would riot.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Besides, the organization had already erased their real identities. They only went by their code names\u00a0<\/p>\n
now.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Ursa was stunned. After a moment, she managed, \u201cI understand.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
A television series, from conception to filming, took at least six to eight months. These five people were doing it for free. They must be ridiculously wealthy, just here for the experience.\u00a0<\/p>\n
After work, Larissa slid into the backseat next to her dad in the car. She rubbed her tired eyes. \u201cIt\u2019s\u00a0<\/p>\n
1\/2\u00a0<\/p>\n
22:01\u00a0<\/p>\n
Chapter 495\u00a0<\/p>\n
been a long day, Dad. I\u2019m just going to rest my eyes for a bit.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
She leaned back and closed them.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Neville glanced over at her, a fond, helpless smile on his face.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Ever since Larissa had returned to the Judson family, she hadn\u2019t had a single day of rest. Other heiresses spent their days enjoying life\u2019s luxuries. Honora, for instance, had spent her vacations at Haven Loft practicing art and music, or participating in competitions her tutors had signed her up for. Her leisure time was filled with flower arranging, yoga, and spa treatments.\u00a0<\/p>\n
But Larissa was a whirlwind, a spinning top that never seemed to stop. At home, she tended to her herb garden. At the office, she managed Starlight Media and still found time every day to treat Haskell\u2019s legs. The collaboration between Judson Pharmaceuticals and the Schwartz family was a deal she had personally brokered. And on top of all that, she was still thinking about helping Sapphira.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Neville knew he had to step up. He couldn\u2019t let his daughter carry the weight of Judson Pharmaceuticals on her shoulders as well.\u00a0<\/p>\n
