A Graduation Gift
Chapter 40 A Dirty Story
The night unveiled a dirty story. Lionel and Ivy were planning something.
"I can't believe that you actually went to H City,"
Ivy said, feigning indifference. But as Lionel watched her reactions, a fleeting hint of jealousy and her shortness of breath betrayed her.
"What about it? Are you jealous? I only went there to get a scoop on Rufus, so that I can kick him out of the Tang Group more easily," responded Lionel.
The whole night, he appeared a little absent-minded. Every time he replayed the humiliating scenes of Rufus forcing him to kneel before Cassandra and kicking him out afterward, Lionel's anger against his brother kept on boiling.
At heart, he swore that he would have Rufus paid the price!
"So, did you find anything?"
Ivy's question was tongue-in-cheek. She didn't take Lionel's words seriously.
In response to her teasing, he simply sneered, turned over in bed, and snuggled closer to her.
Wearing a sensuous shade of red lipstick, Ivy whispered into his ears, "Lionel. I'll soon get the evidence."
It was very late. The darkness was gathering outside, just like Lionel's moods. It was time to hit the sack, hoping that tomorrow would be a better day. For the fretful day it had been, Lionel had feared he would turn and toss for the better part of the night. But by some stroke of luck, he went out like a light and slept quite peacefully.
Early in the morning as the first rays of sunlight lit the horizon, Lionel convinced himself that the bright day would banish his melancholy and he would lift up his head again.
The eminent landmark of G City, the Tang Group towers, with its classy blue finish sparkled in the morning light.
In good time, Cassandra arrived at the offices and headed straight to her own department. The few staff members who had made it earlier welcomed her with congratulatory messages for her feat in sealing the multi-million dollar deal for the company.
"Manager Qin, that was incredible! I can't believe you made the deal, quick and easy. Someone is going to get a promotion," enthused one colleague.
"Yeah, I've always believed Manager Qin's credentials. With charisma, brains and go-getting attitude, Manager Qin deserves the position," chipped in another.
"We feel privileged working under you. You have a lot for us to learn. Together we will make a difference to out company." added yet another.
