After closing the door, she placed the bag on the desk before the manager could even say anything.
She then unzipped the bag and revealed the stacks of cash inside.
The manager was completely stunned upon seeing that.
“Here’s three hundred thousand in cash. All I need you to do is delete the surveillance camera footage that shows me driving back here today afternoon,” Rayna said while pointing at the bag.
The manager glanced at the money with widened eyes, seemingly wavering.
After thinking about it for two whole minutes, the manager asked, “So, you just need me to delete the surveillance camera footage that shows you returning? Nothing else?”
Rayna nodded. “Someone might come over a few days later to check the surveillance camera footage. He’s very skilled when it comes to IT stuff, so make sure to do a clean job at deleting the footage.”
“No problem. I’ll have someone take care of it,” the manager reassured her.
Rayna took the rest of the cash out of the bag and stacked them neatly on the desk. “All right. Thank you very much.”
She then left the manager’s office and returned to her condominium.
After closing the door behind her, she pulled out a voice recorder and played her conversation with the manager earlier.
This was her backup plan.
If I can bribe this manager so easily, then Wyatt could most certainly do the same. If that happens, I’ll sue that manager for deception using this recording!
A few peaceful days later, Rayna received a short video clip from Wilson.
The thumbnail of the video was a picture of Curtis dressed in a traditional outfit. The warm and gentle vibe of his outfit formed a huge contrast with his cold and distant facial expression.
Rayna felt her heart skip a beat when she saw how attractive he looked.
As much as she didn’t want to see him, her finger had tapped on the play button before she even realized it.
While she did see him in that outfit fairly often while filming the video, seeing the finished product on her phone still felt very impactful.
The camera angles were perfect, and the scenery in the background complemented his outfit really well.
It looked so good that, for a second there, Rayna forgot it was a fictional work of art. The look in Rayna’s eyes also helped make the scene all the more realistic.
When the scene cut to Curtis staring affectionately into the camera, Rayna quickly exited the video.
Even with her phone flipped over, her head was still filled with images of Curtis’ gentle expression.
Ugh… Why am I like this? How long will it take for me to forget about him and move on? She rubbed her temples in frustration.
“I’m sorry, sir. You can’t enter without an appointment. Please cooperate, or I will have to call for security…”
Rayna regained her senses when she heard her assistant, Ella, arguing with someone outside.
She wanted to see what was going on and had just gotten up from her chair when the door to her office was kicked open.
Wyatt then stormed into her office a second later. His suit was wrinkled, and he looked somewhat exhausted as he glanced about, his line of sight falling on Rayna.
“Where is she?” Wyatt asked while walking up to Rayna, the look in his eyes grim.
“Who are you talking about?” Rayna snapped back at him.
She glanced at the broken doorknob and continued with a sneer, “Mr. Lopez, please keep in mind that this is Glory, not Lopez Group. You need to make an appointment with my assistant if you wish to see me. Not only have you barged into my office like a vulgarian, but you also broke my door when you kicked it open. I’ll have to bill you for the repairs later.”
“Drop the act! I checked the surveillance camera footage at Zenisan Villa! You went to see her four days ago, and you took her with you! You really have gotten bolder, Rayna!” Wyatt yelled angrily.
