After she hung up, Evelyn said Isabel wanted to see her, so she told Teresa to get off. Teresa clenched her hands at that. “Well, I wish you happiness!”

With that, she got off. Tears rolled down her cheeks. Even if she was no longer Evelyn‘ s baby girl, she still wished Evelyn all the best.

A few days later, Teresa was back at the office, having just finished a meeting. The month was coming to a close, and the company’s quarterly financial report was out, waiting for her review.

Back in the car with Evelyn, Teresa had even mentioned how everything was going smoothly, and the company was making money. Despite the good sales and profits, she was baffled by how the final numbers showed that the company was operating at

a loss.

Teresa contacted Benny, asking him to come over. Benny, being considerate, visited Teresouth Group. The second he arrived, Teresa caught the scent of his cologne and frowned. “Where have you been fooling around again? You smell like a perfume shop.”

Benny laughed. “I’m quite the flirt, but I do set my boundaries.”

“Says he who patronizes the bar three times a week,” mocked Teresa.

Benny clicked his tongue. “There are only three reasons I go to the bar–either to drink. with your hubby, entertain my clients, or watch the ladies dance.”

“You can’t expect anything good out of a foul mouth. Let’s talk business.” Teresa stomped on Benny’s shoe. The reason she asked for Benny was to see if his accounting firm could handle her company’s future account reconciliations.

“You really treat me like family,” uttered Benny.

“Better to let you have the money than someone else, old friend.” Teresa chuckled and made Benny coffee. Then, she also asked Benny to analyze why, although the sales were decent, the financials showed a loss.

“Instead of asking me how to run a company, your best bet would be seeking Jonathan’s advice. He’s got business experience and studied finance. His words would carry considerable weight,” suggested Benny.

“I don’t want to! We’ve stopped staying in touch,” Teresa remarked.

“What happened between you two?” questioned Benny. Seeing Teresa not answering, he refrained from pressing further. He eyed the employee benefits section of Teresouth Group.

“Work’s from ten to four, with a one–hour lunch break; meal allowance; off on

weekends; a base salary of 2,600 dollars plus full insurance coverage?” he recited.

His eyes widened as he continued, “Your company offers such great benefits. There isn’t another like it in all of Nareigh, right? No wonder you’re not making money–they’re all in your staff’s pocket. As the boss, how do you even make money?”

“I used to work for someone, too. I was severely exploited back at NewEdge Media. That’s why I don’t wanna do it to my staff; it’s not easy to earn a living,” explained Teresa.
