Lily's two closest confidantes and employees, Stephanie and Kate, decided to stop by to visit Lily at her mansion on their day off. Lily welcomed them into her home, and they enjoyed a delightful spread of tea and freshly-baked guava pastries.
They discussed the latest sales figures and inventory levels for the shop, and Lily informed her friends that she had been promoted to a Viscount. In honor of her well-deserved promotion, they bestowed upon her the title of Lady Lily, which she graciously accepted.
Lily has some exciting news to share with Stephanie and Kate! She's planning to start a corporate headquarters to keep track of the sales and business dealings of all of their locations, and she's chosen Stephanie and Kate to lead the charge.
They're both feeling happy and worried, but Lily reassures them that they're up for the task. And to top it off, Lily is offering them both a salary of 1 million safis, with a starting bonus of 100,000 safis to reward their efforts up until now! Stephanie and Kate are both ecstatic about the news and embrace Lily in gratitude. It's a great day for the trio!
"Wow, Lily! I can't believe you're trusting us with so much responsibility. We won't let you down!" said Stephanie, feeling both excited and nervous.
"I agree with Stephanie, Lady Lily. We'll do our best to make sure the shops are successful and that your trust in us is well-placed," added Kate, with a smile on her face.
"I have no doubt that you both will do great. You have the skills and the passion to make this work. And don't worry, I'll be here to support you every step of the way," said Lily, patting them both on the back.
"Wow, that's a lot to take in. But I'm up for the challenge!" said Stephanie, feeling excited and a bit nervous.
"I agree with Stephanie. It's a lot of responsibility, but I think we can handle it," added Kate, feeling determined.
"I have no doubt that you both will do a great job. I'll be here to support you every step of the way. Let's get to work!" said Lily, feeling confident in her team.
"First things first, let's start looking for new employees to fill our old positions. We'll need to find people who are passionate and hardworking, just like us," said Stephanie, feeling energized.
"Agreed. And we should also discuss the possibility of a raise for the security guards. They work hard to keep our shops safe, and they deserve to be compensated fairly," added Kate, feeling empathetic.
"Great ideas. And don't forget to start looking for a trustworthy financial advisor to manage our accounting division. We want to make sure our finances are in good hands," said Lily, feeling optimistic.
"I'll start looking for a real estate agent to help us find the perfect building for our corporate headquarters. It's going to be a lot of work, but I'm up for the challenge," said Stephanie, feeling determined.
"Absolutely. And I'll start looking for potential candidates to fill our old positions. We want to make sure we find the right people for the job," added Kate, feeling productive.
The three of them shared a smile and got to work, ready to take on the new challenges ahead.
Lily's maids, Luna, Aurora, Stella, and Cleo, entered the room where Lily, Stephanie, and Kate were discussing business. "Lady Lily, we're sorry to interrupt, but you summoned us. What can we do for you, my lady?" asked Luna, the head maid.
"Ladies, I was looking at your paperwork and I noticed that none of you have a birthdate. That means you don't have a day to celebrate your birthdays. So, I asked my two best friends to come here and help me throw a birthday party for all four of you. Take the rest of the day off and celebrate with us. I'm so fortunate to have such thoughtful and caring maids. Thank you all so much!" said Lily, feeling grateful.
The maids were surprised and delighted by Lily's gesture. "Thank you so much, Lady Lily! We're so grateful for your kindness," said Aurora, feeling touched.
"Agreed. You're the best boss we could ever ask for," added Stella, feeling grateful.
The maids shared hugs with Lily, Stephanie, and Kate, feeling happy and appreciated. They couldn't wait to celebrate their birthdays with their kind and generous employer.
They spent the rest of the day leading into the night eating cake and delicious foods, as well as drinking expensive wine, as they continued building their bonds as friends. They laughed, shared stories, and danced to music. The maids felt so happy to be included in such an intimate gathering with their employer and her friends.
"Thank you so much for doing this for us, Lady Lily. This is the best birthday we've ever had," said Cleo, feeling grateful.
"Agreed. You're such a kind and generous person," added Luna, feeling touched.
Lily smiled, feeling happy to have made her maids' day special. "You all deserve it. You work so hard and I appreciate everything you do for me," said Lily, feeling grateful.
As the night drew to a close, the maids hugged Lily, Stephanie, and Kate, thanking them for such a wonderful day. They left with full stomachs and happy hearts, feeling grateful for their kind and thoughtful employer.
As the night drew to a close, Lily returned to her bedroom with her two beautiful daughters. Lily read the letter she received earlier, from her husband, feeling a mix of emotions. She missed him so much and wished he was there with her and their daughters. She wiped away her tears and whispered, "I love you too, my prince." She folded the letter and put it in her pocket, feeling grateful for the love and support of her husband.
She knew that he was away on an important mission, but it was hard not to worry about him. She hoped that he would return home safely soon. She looked at a magical image of her family on her nightstand and smiled, feeling grateful for the memories they shared together.
Lily took a deep breath and continued with getting her babies to sleep, feeling grateful for the love of her family and friends. She knew that they would always be there for her, no matter what.
