“You weren’t worried when you two didn’t meet for four or five years. It’s only been a few months this time, yet you
can’t stop thinking about him?” Rayna raised her eyebrow.
“It’s different this time,” Jasmine replied concernedly. “I’ve been having awful dreams lately. I’m afraid something
bad will happen to him. I can’t allow him to die so soon after my son reunited with him.”
Rayna failed to suppress a chuckle. “All right. I’ll definitely take good care of my future son-in-law, so you don’t
need to worry about anything. Just go.”
“Thank you.”
After Jasmine entered the company, Rayna headed to Lopez Group to meet with Wyatt.
“I’m Rayna from Glory Corporation,” Rayna informed the receptionist politely. “I would like to meet with Mr. Lopez.”
The receptionist glanced at her before making a call with the internal phone.
Roughly twenty seconds later, the receptionist apologized, “I’m sorry, but Mr. Lopez isn’t here right now.
Additionally, he likely won’t be coming back at this hour. Is tomorrow or the day after tomorrow all right?”
Wyatt’s not here? Furrowing her eyebrows, Rayna thought about her next move and asked, “Can I ask what places
he often visits?”
“That I do not know. I’m just a receptionist.”
“All right, thank you.”
Just as Rayna was about to leave, the gossipy receptionist asked carefully, “I heard you used to date Mr. Faymon,
Ms. Garland. Is that true? Why did you two broke up? Are you really getting together with Glory’s mixed-blood
CEO?”
Rayna’s lips twitched before she forced a smile. “Where did you hear this gossip?”
“I’m a member of a few gossip groups within the finance industry. Therefore, I’m able to learn many things about
other companies quickly even though I’m in Lopez Group. The groups have been solely talking about you for the
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtpast few days.”
“I’m quite curious. Can I take a look at the groups?” Rayna requested calmly. “I didn’t know about any of these.”
The receptionist hesitated for a moment before handing her phone to Rayna.
Upon glancing through the gossip groups, Rayna committed their names to memory before returning the phone to
the receptionist. “Thank you. I’m glad that no one in the group posted ugly pictures of me.”
After she stepped out of Lopez Group, she sent the names of the gossip groups to Ella. Then, she ordered, “Add
yourself into those groups and change the latest topics by diverting their attention to other news. If that fails, use
legal means to shut them down.”
The fact that she was dating Curtis was a secret that no one but their relatives and best friends knew.
I didn’t expect to learn that rumors about my relationship with Curtis and knowledge of Glory’s new CEO’s identity
are spreading across the industry after returning to the country. It seems like someone’s masterminding this
dissemination to ruin my reputation. However, I don’t have time to take care of this right now for I’m still really
worried about Jessie. I couldn’t find Wyatt in Lopez Group, nor do I know where he went recently. I guess I’ll send a
WhatsApp message to Gabriel. Curtis and Wyatt are close, and Gabriel’s technically Curtis’ personal housekeeper,
so he must know where Wyatt frequents. As she sent Gabriel a message, she was clueless about Curtis’
appropriation of his account.
Curtis had just returned to Faymon Group and was scheduling when to meet up with a few business partners
through WhatsApp. As he returned to the main page, he saw he had received a message in Gabriel’s account,
which, aside from Rayna, had barely any other contacts.
His finger hovered above the screen for a few seconds before he ultimately switched to Gabriel’s account.
Rayna: Are you busy, Gabe?
Gabe? Curtis was ticked off. Even though she’s not familiar with Gabriel and used to call him Mr. Tylinski, she’s now
calling him Gabe? Why does he get that treatment now while she calls me Mr. Faymon? She even speaks formally
with me when she’s angry!
He replied: What’s the matter, Ms. Garland?
A few seconds later, Rayna texted back: Don’t treat me as coldly as your boss, Gabe! We’re good friends, aren’t
we? Fine, fine, I was wrong last time. I apologize, okay?
Last time? What did she talk about with Gabriel last time? Before he could reply, she sent another message: Don’t
be angry, Gabe! I promise I’ll treat you to a super tasty meal next time I’m free!
Then, a second later, another message: Say, you often head outside to do stuff for your boss, right? You must’ve
met Wyatt. I need to discuss something with him, but I can’t find him in Lopez Group. You don’t need to ask your
boss about it. Just tell me a few places Wyatt often visits.
As Curtis read the messages expressionlessly, he grew more tempted to smash the phone into pieces every time
he saw the word “Gabe.”
It really ticked him off.
Seeing how he wasn’t replying to her, Rayna asked: Can you say something, Gabe?
With a scowl, he typed: You can find him in his club, Alright Golf Course.
Rayna responded gratefully: Thank you, Gabe! You’re the best! You’re not like the petty Mr. Faymon at all. My heart
ached when I heard he transferred you to the secretarial department and put you in charge of taking calls. Once I
achieve great accomplishments at Glory, come join me! I’ll give you a higher annual salary than he does!
That infuriated Curtis so much that he laughed. This woman is ruthless! She speaks ill of me, and now she’s trying
to steal my people!
Thus, he replied: I belong to Faymon Group, Ms. Garland, and I’ll serve the company for as long as I live. Don’t
dislike him too much. I think Mr. Faymon is pretty good.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmRayna: Haha! You’re at least ten times better than him! For real, if you didn’t already have someone you like, I
probably would’ve married you.
That rendered him speechless.
Rayna: Well, I need to find Wyatt now. I promise I’ll treat you to a meal next time!
Curtis’s line of sight was affixed on her second sentence.
It was then Gabriel, who didn’t sense the danger in the air, stepped into the room.
“I just received a call from Mr. Snyder, Mr. Faymon,” he reported. “He’s asking if you’re free tonight as he wishes to
drink and talk business with you.”
When he saw Curtis looking at him with a gloomy look, he felt a chill run down his spine as he tensed up. “T-Tilly
wasn’t around, and since I noticed you’re still in your room, I thought I should inform you about it.” Why does he
look like he wants to kill me?
Curtis inquired, “How well do you think Faymon Group treats you, Gabriel? “
“Very well.” Frightened by his boss’ cold tone, he answered devotedly, “Faymon Group is my home. I’m willing to
stay in and serve Faymon Group for the rest of my life.”
“What if another company tries to hire you with a higher salary?”
“I only have eyes for Mr. Faymon and Faymon Group. Even if the richest man in the world asks me to work for him, I
still won’t take up the offer. I’m willing to sacrifice my life for the company!”
A satisfied smile formed on Curtis’ countenance as he uttered in a deep voice, “A very good answer. As expected of
someone who has been working under me for many years.”
Gabriel felt relieved upon hearing that.
However, a second later, Curtis spat, “Yeringham is still lacking in manpower, so I want you to head over there
tomorrow. You can return once you’ve taken care of the matters there.”
“Mr. Faymon…” Gabriel was dumbfounded. I didn’t say anything wrong, so why am I forced to go on a business trip
again?
“I’m only asking you to travel to another state, not to another country.” Curtis’ tone sounded a little relaxed. “I even
gave you a night to pack your things. Aren’t I a good boss?”
