Chapter 42 Intolerable

Despite her surprise, she knew it wasn’t the time to show it. Just when she planned to take a seat after Curtis had greeted the men, a figure suddenly beat her to it.

“Ms. Garland, your place is over there.”

Kristie had placed her bag on the seat on Curtis’ left before seating herself on his right. After that, she—not wanting Rayna to be anywhere close to Curtis—directed the other woman to sit beside Jonathan.

Rayna raised her brow in seething anger as she took the seat next to Jonathan.

I’ll just bear with it.

After Rayna came over, the smiling Jonathan remarked, “Ms. Kristie is just naughty. I hope you don’t mind, Rayna. Anyway, it’s good that you’re sitting with me. Both of us can talk.”

Rayna whispered, “I wouldn’t dare offend the apple of Mr. Faymon’s eye.”

“Haha, I’m surprised you realize how much Mr. Faymon spoils her.”

“Isn’t it obvious?” Rayna broke into a helpless smile. “Mr. Faymon even tolerates her taking up the seat with her bag.”

Furthermore, she had never seen Curtis hit Kristie before. At most, he would just reprimand her.

Jonathan nodded. “That’s right. Ms. Kristie was personally groomed by Mr. Faymon. Despite her mischievous demeanor, she’s extremely capable. Otherwise, Mr. Faymon wouldn’t have allowed her to stay by his side all the time.”

How is she capable? In acting?

Soon, the answer would be evident to Rayna.

As the blond men spoke Anglandurn, there was nothing for Rayna and Jonathan to do. Thus, both of them sat quietly there, watching Curtis negotiate with them.
