Contract Marriage: Abusive Love with Mr.CEO-Chapter 503 - 264: I Actually Care About You (Part 4)
Her mind clicked, and she suddenly realized.
The mayor’s daughter of T City was exposed for exchanging sexual favors, such big news naturally attracted more attention than her "love triangle" saga, so these days, reporters are probably camped outside the mayor’s house and office building...
It turns out the news about her wasn’t pulled, but simply overshadowed by even juicier news. Although being overshadowed means that the news will slowly fade away, which is the same effect as having Howard Geoffrey handle it, her heart felt utterly unsettled.
He actually chose to stand by and do nothing...
Rebecca Quentin shook her head blankly, incredulous.
"Hey, what are you spacing out for? I really thought you had connections to get into ’QCS’ before, but now that I think about it, the rumors about you being involved with our big boss were probably spread by you, right?"
Rita Young stood elegantly in front of Rebecca Quentin, looking down on her disdainfully.
Rebecca Quentin stared straight ahead, calm and silent.
Rita Young sneered, "Seems like you’re admitting it... Tsk tsk tsk, no wonder the manager was so captivated by your sweet talk, he believed your wicked lies too!"
Due to Rita Young’s words, the entire office erupted in laughter.
Rebecca Quentin stood up and glared at Rita Young.
Rita Young struck a more dignified pose, uttering fearlessly, "Oh, still unconvinced? If you’re unconvinced, come at me! I really came here today to deliberately make things difficult for you!"
Just as Nicolette Holmes entered the office and saw this scene, she instantly rushed to Rita Young and scolded angrily, "What are you doing? Do you want me to report to the manager now?"
"Don’t try to scare me, Nicolette, the manager needs headquarters approval to fire an employee, it’s not something that can be done casually."
Nicolette Holmes gritted her teeth and retorted, "Don’t go too far!!"
Rita Young rolled her eyes, "Am I going too far? I’m just trying to maintain our office environment, preventing it from being polluted by a filthy person."
Nicolette Holmes glared angrily, raising her hand, "Who are you calling ’filthy’?"
Rita Young was startled by Nicolette’s motion of wanting to strike, involuntarily stepping back a few steps.
Rebecca Quentin was also startled by Nicolette’s sudden action, quickly pulling her back.
Nicolette Holmes couldn’t help but curse for Rebecca Quentin, "Don’t think that just because she doesn’t say anything you can bully her! Do you know the real situation behind this? You all just envy her beauty and intelligence, which has garnered appreciation from the manager, so you take this opportunity to vent here; who is truly shameless?"
Driven to anger, Rita Young shouted profanities, "Nicolette Holmes, your brain must have been kicked by a mule to be defending this person!"
Nicolette Holmes wanted to yell back, but unexpectedly, other coworkers in the office stood up at this moment and backed Rita Young.
Seeing she had support, Rita Young became even more brazen, "Rebecca Quentin, I’m telling you, you better vanish from ’QCS’, otherwise don’t blame us for being rude."
"Becca, ignore them, let’s go find the manager!"
Nicolette Holmes tugged Rebecca Quentin towards the manager’s office.
However, Rita Young and others intercepted Rebecca Quentin, and someone shouted again, "You, who just learned design, want to snatch our positions, which we’ve worked for years at ’QCS’ for you to come in today as designers! What do you have, lies spread around the firm? The manager believes you, but we don’t. If you have the skills, get ’QCS’s backstage boss to come out and fire us all publicly!"
Nicolette Holmes shouted angrily, "You are simply too much! Becca’s private life doesn’t need to be reported to you!"
"She surely doesn’t need to report to us. Just like her using her position to go to Y City, not only seducing Mr. Geoffrey but also catching up with ’Oversky’s CEO, these things can’t be explained in a few words, we don’t have time to listen to all that!"
Unable to bear it anymore, Rebecca Quentin coldly stated, "Enough, have you finished speaking?"
Outside the office door, a tall and lean silhouette leaned against the doorframe, his view was that of a group of women surrounding and attacking another woman in the office.
No one noticed the man, his calm gaze surveyed everything in front of him, his face revealed little emotion, yet in the next moment, he pressed a series of numbers on his phone, "I’m in the restaurant, come meet me." After saying that, he ended the call directly.
Someone in the office finally noticed the man’s presence, but unfortunately, all they saw was his departing figure, drawing little attention.
A few minutes later, in the restaurant on the first floor of "QCS".
Manager Smith looked across at the man leisurely sipping coffee, cautiously asking, "I’m not sure why Mr. Robinson called for me?"
The man put down the coffee, lazily leaning back on the sofa, his gentle and harmless eyes leisurely scrutinizing Manager Smith, he softly uttered, "The gift you sent me last time was quite to my liking."
Manager Smith smiled respectfully, "I just thought Mr. Robinson might need it, so I had Becca deliver it to you." The gift to the boss was actually surveillance footage of Rebecca Quentin, recording her daily work details.
"Manager Smith, you are a smart person, it’s worth it for me to have you look after Becca..."
"Mr. Robinson is indeed interested in Becca... oh, no, concerned about the future Mrs. Robinson."
The man seemed to hear the term for the first time, savoring it slowly, "Mrs. Robinson?"
Manager Smith couldn’t guess the big boss’s true thoughts, after saying these words, he felt somewhat inappropriate, considering Rebecca Quentin’s current situation seemed somewhat precarious.
The man only chuckled in the end, softly said, "Arrange her to go on a business trip to New York in these two days, have her dress nicely for the evening of the thirteenth."
The thirteenth evening?
After processing the date in his head, Manager Smith suddenly became excited, "Mr. Robinson, you intend to..."
The man curled his lips non-committally, stood up and left.
The day’s turmoil left Rebecca Quentin utterly exhausted...
Returning home, changing into slippers, Rebecca Quentin called out, "Sis!"
Christine Quinn came out of the room, full of displeasure.
Rebecca Quentin set down her bag and briefcase, asked, "What’s wrong with you?"
"Didn’t you see today’s newspaper?"
Rebecca Quentin lowered her head, "I saw it."
Christine Quinn put her hands on her hips, "I’m so angry, so angry..."
"Did you cook? I’m so hungry..."
"Can you seriously still eat?"
