His Precious Love

“Isn’t that obvious? Did you really have to ask?” The female staff rolled her eyes at her coworker. “Rayna had a history of being flirtatious back in Faymon Group, and I heard she was involved with Mr. Faymon too. Do you think Mr. Faymon will really fall for a woman like her? I bet she’s turning to target his assistant, Mr. Tylinski, after failing to get Mr. Faymon’s attention. Mind you, Mr. Tylinski is Mr. Faymon’s confidant, and he ranks highly in Faymon Group.”

“She’s such a minx,” someone chimed in. “Say, do you guys think she’s targeting Kelly because Kelly got involved with Mr. Faymon?”

“Of course!”

“I heard that Ms. Garland wants Kelly to be the new spokesperson of our company’s new product and offered her three million. Is she that naïve to think that she could get a celebrity like Kelly with a measly three million to shoot a three-minute promotional video? Does she think celebrities don’t have bills to pay?”

“I think Ms. Garland’s being too much. If she’s that stingy, why doesn’t she just do it herself?”

“Well, though Ms. Garland’s a scheming woman, I think she’s really quite pretty, and I have to admit that she’s well-endowed.”

They gossiped in the office without restraint and laughed boisterously that they didn’t even notice when Rayna walked in.

She even had to knock on the glass door to attract their attention.

The gossip died down instantly, and they wished the ground could swallow them whole. Rayna’s lips curled into a half-smile when she saw the ashen look on their faces. “I’m sorry for disturbing your fun time.”

Awkward silence hung in the air.

Rayna disregarded the awkward atmosphere and mentioned the names of a few documents that she was looking for. “Who’s holding these documents?”

“M-Ms. Garland, they’re with m-me,” a woman in a checkered dress stammered. She immediately retrieved the documents and passed them over to Rayna with shaky hands.
