Boss,I'm Not Your Stand-in Gilrfriend novel Chapter 51

I nodded and said, "Yeah, I was just at work and didn't expect to be involved in this kind of thing."

Candice said, "He is also an innocent person who has got involved in the rich family grudges..."

I was a little confused. Rich family grudges? Why had Candice said that? Wasn't this a business dispute? Wasn't this supposed to be the evil means of a rival? I was about to ask cautiously when Goran coughed softly and said, "Go back to your rooms and rest for now. I will inform you if there is anything."

I nodded and went upstairs alone. I opened Gavin's door, but then I thought about it, and I decided to let go. He must need to be alone now. I hadn't been with him for a long time, so I didn't know much about him. I would better not bother him.

After that, I went back to my room, where there was not even my luggage, only a simple traveling bag. I was just lying down on the bed and about to rest a little when the telephone rang. I did not look to see who it was but answered it directly. It was a noisy little girl. She said, "Darcey! I heard you went back to Aurora?"

I was still struggling to figure out who that was. I pulled out my phone and saw that it was my classmate from university, Mischa. She and I both went to school in Denver, but we were both from Aurora. We hadn't meet until we went to our university, and we were both members of the hometown association of Aurora.

I said weakly, "Yes, I have something to do back here. What's up?"

Mischa had a good relationship with me, and she was outgoing. She couldn’t hide anything if she heard that, then she said. "Have you recently followed Roger's news?"

I said, "News? What news? Since he left me, he has even been on the news page?" I made an unkind joke.

Misha said, "What, what news page! I heard that since he divorced with you, he was doing poorly economically, not to mention that any relatives who had something to do with him hadn't ended well. He was just almost begging on the streets!"

I hummed a few times in a daze. Mischa said something else and hung up the phone. I've heard about Roger, but it was actually cannot be counted as news for me. But I've never heard anything about his relatives. It must had been Gavin. He did it to revenge for me.

Roger and Olivia did not come to a good end, and I was very happy. But as more and more people were involved in the matter, I gradually felt a little uneasy.

It was just that I have no right to say anything at the moment. I didn't want to have anything to do with Roger in my life. How his family was going to be depended on themselves.

It was evening and I slept in a daze. When I woke up, someone was lying beside me. I was startled and struggled to sit up. But immediately, I heard a voice. It was Gavin.

He said, "You're awake?"

Feeling relieved, I leaned into his arms and asked. "What time is it? Did you have dinner?"

Gavin rubbed his chin against my forehead, rubbed it gently, and said."Not yet. I'm not hungry."

"Still no clue?"

"No."

"What should we do? We can't just let it go like this. It's not a small amount of money."

Gavin let go of me, sat up hesitatingly, and said. "You are right. So this matter has still to be investigated. But now, the project cannot be delayed. I want to talk to the people over there first, just take another sum of money and settle it."
