When the Wind is Sweet: The Fairy Tale of Mr. and Mrs. Lancaster-Chapter 570: President Lancaster’s Gift

When Dustin Shepherd returned to the company, it was already half-past nine in the morning. 𝒇𝓻𝓮𝓮𝙬𝙚𝒃𝒏𝓸𝙫𝒆𝙡.𝓬𝓸𝒎

As he walked into the office, he was startled by the scene before him—

His desk was flooded with small, exquisite candy gift boxes from a brand called "Candy Sutton."

"Mr. Lancaster?" Dustin walked towards him, "Did you buy these?"

"You and Serena Sutton being together has really been the hot topic these past few days, hasn’t it? Everyone who sees me comes to ask for wedding candies." Adrian Lancaster closed the files in his hand and looked up at him—

"Here you go, no need for you to pay out of pocket. These will go on the company’s tab. You should first distribute them to the folks in the President’s Office, right? There’ll be two more boxes delivered shortly, you should also distribute them to the design department. It’s a joyous occasion, let’s spread the cheer around."

"..." Dustin looked at him, then at the mountain of candy gift boxes piling up on his desk.

He wasn’t sure what to say at that moment, but he quickly realized that President Lancaster was clearly enjoying the spectacle.

At that moment, a knock on the door sounded.

"Come in." Adrian Lancaster’s voice was gentle, and he was indeed in a good mood.

Soon, a female employee from the finance department entered, "Hello Mr. Lancaster, this report needs your review." She came to get Mr. Lancaster’s signature on some documents.

She also saw the heap of candy gift boxes on Dustin’s desk, which looked like a cute little mountain, quite lovely, "Assistant Shepherd, are these your wedding candies?"

"Indeed." Adrian Lancaster took the document, reviewing it while replying gently, "How many people are there in your department? You can take some down later, just say they’re from Assistant Shepherd! He doesn’t have time to distribute them individually."

"Sure thing! Eight people!" The female employee replied cheerfully.

Dustin felt like a spectator in all of this.

The female employee took the signed paper from him, smiled at Dustin, then walked over to his desk.

Swiftly grabbed eight bags of candy, "Thank you, Assistant Shepherd! Congratulations to you and Designer Sutton for an everlasting union!"

Then left happily.

Dustin, "..." speechless.

Adrian Lancaster?

He was delighted, sitting in his office chair, smiling at Dustin, "What’s this? Going on the company’s tab and you still look so worried? It’s quite a sizeable expense."

"Did you make the announcement for me?" Dustin glanced at him.

Adrian Lancaster nodded, "Yes." He wanted to make sure everyone knew, making it impossible for Dustin to back out. If he didn’t marry Serena Sutton, everyone would scold him as a scumbag.

Though thinking of Serena Sutton, Dustin didn’t dislike her.

Especially the scene from last night, it lingered in his mind, and he looked gentle, "Thank you, President Lancaster, for your generosity and attention."

So, he accepted this gift.

"How are the wedding preparations going?" Adrian Lancaster asked.

Dustin began to report, "A Chinese wedding, I think a phoenix coronet, formal marriage is full of ceremony."

And he showed him the photos.

Adrian Lancaster flipped through them one by one, the scene particularly impressive, dominated by a vibrant red, majestic, "Very nice, the aesthetic is right on point."

"I think you’ll like it too, and your wife will like it too," Dustin was quite happy to have his approval. "A Chinese wedding is every girl’s dream."

Adrian Lancaster finished looking through all the photos in the album and handed the phone back to him, "Okay, pay attention to the details."

"Okay."

Today, Serena Sutton, from the moment she stepped into the company, felt different from any other day.

She had an added sense of anticipation, looking forward to bumping into Dustin.

Under Adrian Lancaster’s encouragement, Dustin took a bag of wedding candies downstairs, reaching the door of the design department office.
