“Maybe he doesn’t know you’re working for Glory now,” Jasmine remarked while suddenly glancing behind Rayna. “I was just about to suggest asking Curtis, but who would’ve thought he’d be here too? What a coincidence!”

What?

Rayna froze briefly as Jasmine called out with a wave, “Curtis!”

The sound of footsteps nearing quickly followed.

Not daring to turn her head, she could even vaguely sense the man’s chilling aura as he walked in.

“Have a seat!” Jasmine pointed to a chair nearby. “You’re dining here too?”

Curtis sat down on Rayna’s right and nodded. “I came here with a client. We just finished talking business. I’ll get Gabriel to foot your bill after this.”

“Thanks for that.” Jasmine smiled faintly. “Rayna and I just so happen to be here for a business talk too.”

Curtis shot the woman next to him a glance. “What business?”

“Don’t you know? She’s working for Glory now,” Jasmine responded on Rayna’s behalf. “She did give Faymon Group a call before this, but you guys didn’t come to an agreement. That’s why the project has fallen into Sanders Group’s hands.”

“You’re with Glory now?” Curtis turned to Rayna with a frown. “If training is what you want, you can choose any top company. Glory is way too small. You won’t get anywhere working there.”

Given that he barely paid attention to what was happening in the circle, he was completely unaware that Rayna had joined Glory.

“I’m a free woman. I go wherever I want to. Am I supposed to report every single thing I do to you?” the woman replied coldly. “And so what if it’s a small company? I like that! You may not want to work with small firms, but that doesn’t mean you should look down on us. Every company starts small.”

“I’m not looking down on small companies. I’m just describing the truth that Glory is way too small to make it,” Curtis insisted helplessly. “I would’ve lent you some help if I’d known it was you who called.”

The fire within Rayna’s heart was instantly set ablaze by his words, and she stood up immediately.

“It’s fine. Clearly, a small company like Glory means nothing to you. I’m now working with Sanders Group, anyway, so please step aside, Mr. Faymon. Let me pass through.”

The man didn’t budge.
