A Moment in Destiny novel Chapter 968

"Nonsense!" Marcel immediately stood up in anger, "How could you leave him alone in the hotel?"

"Marcel, don't you feel that you are too good to Adam? As a man, he was devastated after a car accident. I think it's really annoying that you don't criticize him and force us all to give in to him!"

Marcel ignored her and headed out.

Ellen also stood up, "Okay, let's go find him!"

They walked out of the restaurant together.

Rae and Gustavo were already seated and Rae asked Gustavo to order, but Gustavo said ladies first. So Rae decided to order two dishes first and let Gustavo order the rest.

Then, just as they took their order, Rae looked up and saw Marcel getting up and heading out, with that pretty girl following behind him. She looked so young, probably even younger than she was. She chased after Marcel and took him by the arm. Marcel glared back at her, but she didn't care and gave him an ingratiating smile.

Marcel looked at her and finally compromised. They walked out with their arms linked.

Rae was slightly stunned and sighed internally.

Soon, she turned her face to Gustavo, her expression calm.

Gustavo naturally saw the look on Rae's face. He was surprised that Rae could quickly adjust her mood and face him so calmly. Frankly, Gustavo was happy to have dinner with Rae today because it meant that he still had a chance, so he purposely got himself dressed up to look good, but Rae didn't seem to pay attention to what he wore.

She poured a cup of tea for Gustavo and said, "Gustavo, thank you for helping me these days. I will buy you a good meal today. I've known you for so many years and I've always known you as a great friend!"

Come on!

She was going to let him out completely!

Gustavo was sad and looked bad, but soon he smiled, "You don't have to be so polite!"

"I'm not, so I'm eating with you!" Rae said, "Otherwise, I wouldn't have asked for your help!"

Gustavo smiled too, "You're a smooth talker!"

While waiting for the food to be served, Gustavo suddenly thought of the gossip that circulated in the office this morning. He casually asked, "Well, Rae, I have a question to ask you!"

"Hmm!" Rae picked up a cup of tea and brought it to her mouth.

Gustavo thought for a moment and said, "Is it true that Captain Hopkins has something wrong with him?"

Rae spat out her tea!

Luckily, she kept her head down. Otherwise, she would have spat out tea on Gustavo.

"Who said that?" Rae asked.

"It was you who said it!" Gustavo was honest and directly said, "It was you who said that Captain Hopkins had a problem and that was one of the reasons why you broke up!"

"Ah!" Rae was stunned. Lexie was such a gossiper! She was speechless. If Marcel knew what Lexie said, he would definitely pick with her. Also, Marcel heard what she said to Lexie today. It was probably going to be a big misunderstanding.

"Is that true?" Gustavo was still waiting for Rae's answer.

Rae felt that it was a trap. She shook her head and said, "All I can say is that I didn't say anything like that! That's not what I meant! That's all I can say to you."

Gustavo understood instantly. Rae meant that she knew there was nothing wrong with Marcel. In other words, they had lived together and she knew Marcel. Gustavo didn't say anything more.

Rae didn't explain any further.

After that, they started to eat.

While eating, Rae pretended to ask casually, "Gustavo, do you know when Easton came to our office?"

Gustavo was slightly stunned and thought for a moment, "Easton, huh?"

"Yeah!" Rae nodded, "You've been at the office for so long. I remember that you've all been working here for a long time when I came to work. You're all seniors, and so is Garbassi!"

"Easton has been here for years!" Gustavo said, "Easton was here before I came. Garbassi was a little later than Easton!"

"Hmm!" Rae continued her casual tone, "Garbassi and Easton are both elites. They have been dedicated to their work for so many years!"

Gustavo suddenly frowned suspiciously, "Rae, are you trying to flatter them?"

Rae was stunned and immediately shook her head, "I think so from the bottom of my heart!"

"Haha," Gustavo laughed, "They'd be so proud if they heard you!"

"I mean it. I think Easton and Garbassi are really awesome. They have worked in one place for so many years. Easton hasn't changed his workplace, has he?" Rae added, "It's a kind of perseverance!"

Gustavo laughed, "Easton used to stay in a police station in the town for many years before he was transferred here!"
