His Precious Love

His Precious Love Chapter 22 Somebody Saves Her

Rayna sent Julian a text, telling him that the head of her department was celebrating his birthday, and she wanted Julian to come and pick her up afterward.

As expected, Julian declined to do so, claiming that he had something to do at night, and asked her to hail a cab back instead.

Of course, the drama that he and Meredith orchestrated would not go as planned if he were there to pick Rayna up.

Rayna did not make a fuss about it. After work, she shared a cab with her other colleagues to the hotel. Many of her colleagues had arrived early, and they were chatting in the lounge.

The supervisor arrived not long after.

There were a few people accompanying the supervisor. Other than the vice CEO, there was a couple of other top management of the company as well, including Meredith. Incidentally, Rayna met her gaze.

“Rayna, come take a seat at this table,” Meredith said, rather loudly. She was all smiles as she beckoned at Rayna. “I heard that you speak fluent Ferropenian. I’m actually learning Ferropenian lately, and I’d like you to give me a few pointers.”

“You’re too humble,” Rayna said with a smile as she took a seat at the table.

A man was sitting by Rayna’s side. She stole a few glances at the man and noticed that he was not among the top management. Instead, he was Dylan, someone working in the same department as her. His uncle was in top management in some other department.

Rayna understood what Meredith was playing at right away.

Dylan must be part of Meredith’s plan.

He greeted Rayna in a friendly manner, and there was nothing suspicious about him. Rayna nodded at the man in return, as she did not wish to arouse Meredith’s suspicion.

After a few courses, some colleagues at other tables started drinking.

Meredith played the part of a gentle and considerate boss. With the vice CEO present at the table, she toed the line and engaged everyone in small talk, and managed to make Rayna drink as well.

Rayna did not decline her offer and would drink every single glass that Meredith toasted her. She was prepared for this. With a sponge hidden between her sleeves, she would spit the alcohol into the sponges when nobody was looking.

Otherwise, she would have drunk herself silly at Meredith’s table as they alternated between red and white wines.

“Mr. Faymon!”

Someone suddenly called out and everyone else stood up right away.

Rayna turned around to have a look and saw Curtis in an even more formal attire than at the last event. Kristie, who was circling his arms, was wearing a red dress. The two appeared to have come directly after some sort of cocktail reception.
