Dear Sweetheart

Chapter 57 Disappear Into Thin Air

The meeting ended in less than thirty minutes.

Rayna listened quietly and didn’t express her opinions. When she was about to head out, Edith called her.

“Rayna, if possible, you should stop heading out that often.” Edith stood with arms akimbo, seemingly displeased with Rayna’s attitude. “Faymon Group pays your salary, so it isn’t suitable for you to do something else during working hours.”

Before Rayna could reply, she continued, “If Mr. Faymon needs you, tell me ahead of time. The department has other interpreters, so sometimes you need to delegate your task to others.”

Rayna nodded calmly. “Got it.”

“Rayna, are you upset?” Edith snapped suddenly. Her arrogance had intensified since everyone else had left. “I am capable of being the acting supervisor, so it means that I will be elected to be the supervisor in the future.”

“I’m not upset. You’re more competent than me, so I should congratulate you if you were promoted to supervisor,” Rayna responded. She wasn’t even interested in the post. I only agreed after considering the matter as Mr. Lawson asked for my help. I had no idea this would happen to him.

Edith was pleased with her answer. She bragged, “Even if nothing were to happen to Mr. Lawson, I would still get promoted to his position after he leaves for Norham.”

Patting Rayna’s shoulder, she flashed a smile. “Unlike you, I’m not alone. I value talents, so I’ll definitely groom you if you don’t go against me and show me respect.”

“Thank you, Edith.” Rayna returned a smile. “If you’re done here, I shall get back to work.”

Rayna had other projects to work on. That afternoon, she didn’t have time to rest as she was busy with work. Edith later handed her a few documents, so she kept herself busy until six in the evening.

Jessica had been waiting for her downstairs for some time.

When she saw Rayna kneading her shoulders as she stepped out of the elevator, she hurried over and asked, “You used to be able to leave at five, why did you get off work later than me today?”

“I was busy with work. It was late when I finally got them all done.” Rayna was really tired after sitting at her desk for the entire afternoon. She took Jessica’s water bottle and gulped half of the content.
