Chapter 79
“Isaac, your temper is going to get you in trouble one of these days.” Hesper smiled. “Besides, fighting is boring. She’s looking down on me, so it would be sweet if I put her in her place on her own turf.”
“You mean…” Isaac’s eyes shone because he knew.
Duval Group.
Juniper rushed over, but since she didn’t have an appointment, the receptionist had to stop her. “Ms. Wight, Mr. Duval is in the middle of something. Why don’t you give him a call instead?”
“Are you blind? Don’t you know who I am?” Juniper was so angry she almost spit out blood. What was going on in the past few days? Why were people giving her trouble left, right, and center?
“Ms. Wight, I’m just doing my job. Please don’t make it tough for me-”
“Shut up!” Juniper cut him off impatiently. When she saw Benji through the corner of her eye, she immediately called out to him. ” Benji!”
“Ms. Wight?”
Juniper found someone to back her up, so she pointed at the
receptionist. “What’s going on with your receptionist? This isn’t the first time I’m here. How could she stop me?”
Benji smiled politely, unable to tell her that the last time the receptionist let her in without asking, Rickard was furious.
“The staff isn’t trained well enough, so please forgive her. Why don’t I bring you up?”
“Okay.”
Benji pressed the button for the elevator and sent a text to Rickard.
When Juniper got to the CEO’s office, Rickard was already outside with a calm expression. “What brings you here?”
“Rickard, I saw Ren at the mall today and he’s with Hesper Rivera! Hesper bought a lot of things for him, but I’m worried that-”
“What are you worried about?”
Juniper continued, “I’m worried that she got her money through illegal means and she’ll be a bad influence on him!”
The air froze for a few seconds after she said that.
Benji raised his brows. ‘Ms. Wight, even if you’re trying to snitch, you need to find out what’s happening. Mrs. Duval is no longer the same
person.’
As expected, Rickard coldly replied, “You’re overthinking it.”
