Dear Sweetheart Chapter 95 I Am No Pushover It’s all Rayna, that b*tch’s fault that I got kicked out from Faymon Group and blacklisted in the financial

industry. But luckily, I knew many people when I was working at Faymon Group in the past, which was

why it didn’t defeat me.

Despite that, she wanted nothing more than to rip Rayna to shreds when she saw the latter.

Seeing the frustrated look in Meredith’s eyes, Rayna naturally couldn’t ignore her. With a faint smile,

Rayna greeted, “Ms. Jones, long time no see. How have you been?”

“I don’t work at Faymon Group anymore.” Meredith tried her best to keep her anger suppressed. Is this

woman trying to humiliate me by addressing me the way she used to when we were working together?

Besides, we aren’t close.”

Meredith gave Rayna the cold shoulder and spoke in a coquettish manner to the man, who linked arms

with her before the duo entered Plum Blossoms.

Meanwhile, Rayna’s red lips curled into a smile. I thought Meredith would show off in front of me. Why

did she leave in such a hurry? Did something happen?

Since Rayna was there to attend to something important, she promptly brushed off Meredith and entered

Plum Blossoms. She headed to the private room to meet Simon under the waiter’s lead.

Simon Smith from Universal Investments Corporation was in his fifties and appeared courteous. Yet, his

gaze lingered on Rayna from time to time. Not only that, he even took the opportunity to sit next to her

and take advantage of her after the business partner had arrived.

It was then Rayna finally realized Edith had set her up.

Universal Investments Corporation was Faymon Group’s business partner. Therefore, Edith could use

the opportunity to fire her if she caused Simon to feel displeased and delay the collaboration with

Faymon Group.

“Mr. Smith said it’s twenty-five percent of profit.” Rayna smiled while speaking in fluent Falulkadian with

the blond-haired man opposite her. “Mr. Smith is very keen to work with you.”

“Really?” The blond-haired man was taken aback. I estimated they would only agree on fifteen percent of

profit, but unexpectedly, Universal Investments Corporation is this generous.

Then, he smiled and stretched out his hand toward Simon.

Although the latter couldn’t understand Falulkadian, he immediately shook hands with the man since the

latter was courteous. After that, he asked Rayna, “What were you two talking about? Why is Mr. Mector

so happy?”

Rayna answered, “I told him that he had made the right choice to collaborate with Universal Investments

Corporation. Mr. Mector proposed to have twenty-five percent of profit.”

“T-Twenty-five percent?” Simon stuttered badly and grew anxious. “No way! No way! I’ll experience a

great loss given that amount of profit. You should discuss it with him again.”

“Mr. Mector mentioned that the profit is decided after discussing with his team.” Rayna put on a troubled

look. “He also claimed that he would consider other partners if you couldn’t agree with it.”

“But the profit…”

“Mr. Smith, it’s a golden opportunity to expand your company internationally.” Rayna whispered into his

ear, “As you know, many people want to collaborate with Mr. Mector’s team. If you can work with his

team and successfully secure the market in Faulkay, it’ll be much easier for you to venture into Epea’s

market in the future. I understand. Twenty-five percent of profit is slightly high. However, judging from the

current situation of Universal Investments Corporation, you can only earn more money in the future if you

devote everything to this collaboration. What do you think, Mr. Smith?”

Universal Investments Corporation had never been involved in global markets, and that was the first time

they worked with the team from Faulkay. Since Simon was not familiar with the foreign market, he

instantly got trapped in it by Rayna.

Simon fell into deep thought before he finally asserted, “All right. That’s a deal, then.”

Rayna flashed a smile when she heard that. Haha! I’m no pushover!

Rayna relayed the content of the agreement to Simon’s assistant. His assistant was so efficient that he

brought two sets of contracts back within ten minutes. Then, both parties signed and stamped the

contract.

The sky was already dark by the time they finished their meal and headed outside. Plum Blossoms was

illuminated brightly, and the atmosphere was even more lively.

After sending the team from Faulkay off with Simon, Rayna wanted to leave. “Mr. Smith, I shall go now.”

“There’s no need to rush.” Simon chuckled. “Ms. Garland, I want to thank you for doing me such a huge

favor. Coincidentally, a few of my friends are having a meal here. I’d like you to meet them.”

Rayna declined, “Don’t mention it, Mr. Smith. You’re the business partner of Faymon Group, so helping

you is equivalent to helping the company. Enjoy the night with your friends. I shall take my leave first.”

“Ms. Garland, are you planning to turn me down?” Simon’s expression darkened, and he claimed in a

harsh tone, “I’m giving you the opportunity to network because I respect you.”

Rayna knew Simon was determined to have her accept his invitation. If I reject his offer and leave, the

old geezer will surely go to Faymon Group to complain about me. If that’s the case, Edith will be happy

as her conspiracy against me becomes successful.

After giving it some thought, Rayna smiled. “Okay. Thank you for your kind intentions, Mr. Smith.”

“That’s more like it!” Simon’s lips curved into a smile, too.

Simon brought Rayna to the card room after they went into Plum Blossoms. The card room was vast and

lively. Apart from the Epean-style living room, there were ten or so private rooms on both sides. Besides,

one could see servers making their way through the crowd. People at the table dressed in suits and were

covered in branded luxury goods as they were of the upper-class society.

When Rayna followed Simon to a private room on the right, she saw a few people sitting by the table

playing poker. Most of the men had alluring ladies next to them. Their sultry laughter filled the room.

Rayna swept her gaze over and realized Meredith was there too. However, the man Meredith snuggled

up to was not the man Rayna had seen at the entrance earlier. Instead, he was a sleazy balding man. He

paid no heed to people around him as he touched Meredith all over her body without restraint.

The corners of Rayna’s lips twitched at the sight of that. I thought she had always been prideful. How

Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm

could she tolerate a man like him? How courageous.

“Mr. Gibson, it’s been a long time since we last met,” Simon greeted with a smile as he walked toward

the man Meredith cuddled with. It seemed that the man was Simon’s old acquaintance. “How many

rounds of poker have you played? You’ve won a lot, right?”

The balding man named Gavin Gibson replied, “Nah, I’ve just started the game.” He glanced at the back,

and his gaze fell on Rayna. “Oh? Your company has recruited a new employee?”

“No. She is a translator from Faymon Group. I borrow her from Mr. Faymon,” Simon answered.

“I see. Faymon Group’s translator.” The way Gavin looked at Rayna changed, and his gaze was filled

with desire. Meanwhile, Meredith, who was in his embrace, spotted Rayna too. A scheme surfaced within

her mind as she narrowed her eyes.

“Mr. Gibson, look at you. You can’t take your eyes off her.” Meredith pinched Gavin before she sweetly

cooed, “If you don’t like me, I’m leaving now.”

With that said, she acted as if she was getting up to leave. Immediately, Gavin grabbed her and coaxed

her gently.

Rayna only smiled and did not utter a word. Hmm. Mr. Gibson seems to be the head of the people, and

Mr. Smith is on pretty good terms with him. When Mr. Smith arrived, people naturally made way for him

to play poker at the table and served him wine.

Simon sat at one of the corners and patted the seat beside him. “Come here, Ms. Garland. Have a seat.”

“Thank you for holding me in high regard, Mr. Smith.” Rayna sat next to him before taking a glass of

whiskey from someone and passing it to Simon, causing the latter to be delighted.

Gavin and the others played poker while chatting. They talked about business matters without hesitation.

After chatting for some time, the topic of their conversation changed.

Gavin cast a glance at Rayna and asked, “You look quite young, Ms. Garland. How long have you been

working at Faymon Group?”

“Even though she looks young, she’s amazing!” Meredith, who was in his arms, chuckled with a baleful

glance. “She’s not only an interpreter but also the wife of Mr. Faymon’s nephew.”

Gavin was intrigued by her remark. “Oh? She’s the one who married Julian Faymon?”
