Chapter 33 Gideon's Birthday Rebecca , too , was anxious . " Ms. Seabourne , did they win ? " Winter replied coldly , " Give me the account number , and I'll transfer the money to you . " With that , Winter turned and walked away . Clara and the others froze for a moment , then burst into excited cheers . " Ms. Moore , you won this ! Once I receive it , I'll pass it to you ! " Clara said . " No need . Once I've transferred it to you , it's yours . " Clara and the others looked at Nancy with a mixture of excitement and admiration . Nancy was unbelievably generous . She didn't want a single cent of that money . In any other company , no one would ever hand over that kind of money to their employees . Rebecca watched them cheer and felt a sharp pang of jealousy at the thought of 100 thousand dollars . They were only here for a one - night team - building retreat , yet Nancy's team had earned 100 thousand dollars , which was almost half of Rebecca's annual salary . A flicker of regret stirred within Rebecca . As everyone finished eating , they began to head back . Nancy , however , wasn't in a hurry to sleep . She finally came here for a vacation , so she began to stroll leisurely along the path . As she passed by a room , someone stepped out and caught sight of Nancy , a flicker of surprise crossing his face . " It's you ." Nancy was equally taken aback . " You ! Are you on vacation here , too ? " " Yeah , what a coincidence . " The man smiled . He was youthful and composed , carrying an effortless air of nobility . " Are you here for a holiday ? " " Of course . Isn't that why everyone's here ? " " I'm here to see someone . " He looked at Nancy , his gaze unfathomable . Just then , a figure rushed into his arms " Alex ! " Raine whispered softly , her eyes filled with affection . Alex Fuller hummed quietly and gently eased Raine away . When Raine noticed Nancy standing across from them , her expression immediately darkened . " Nancy , what are you doing here ? " Could this cheap woman be secretly meeting with Alex ? Raine's nerves shot up instantly . She wouldn't allow that to happen . She might give up her status as a Lidell , but never her place as the fiancée of a Fuller . How many Chapter 33 Gideon's Birthday socialites would kill to marry into the prestigious Fuller family ? " You know her , too ? " Alex asked , surprised . 2/2 Raine looked unsettled . " I'll explain later , Alex . " Then she turned to Nancy , keeping her guard up . Nancy , Alex is my boyfriend . I hope you'll stay away from him . " Nancy hadn't expected them to be a couple . She gave Alex a quick , sympathetic glance and walked away . After she left , Raine looked at Alex , anxiety written across her face . " You shouldn't talk to her anymore . " " Why not ? " Alex asked . IP " Because she hates the Lidell family , " Raine explained . " My mother has two children , and she was the one given away as a baby . Now that she's back , she's full of resentment toward our family . She might even try to come after you . " Her voice dropped to a whisper . " So , Alex , don't believe anything she says . " Alex watched the figure disappear into the darkness , his brow knitting into a frown . Later , as Nancy was walking back , she heard a familiar voice . She quickly ducked behind a wall and spotted two figures not far off . It was Winter and Gideon . Gideon was here , too ? " Gideon , it's your birthday today . Happy birthday ! " Winter said shyly as she offered a small gift box . Gideon's tone was cold . " That's not necessary . " " Please , Gideon . Just take it . I've been preparing this for a long time , " Winter urged , pressing the gift into his hand . Afraid he'd refuse , she quickly turned and walked away . Nancy raised an eyebrow , glanced at her phone , and saw it was past midnight . So today was Gideon's birthday .
