Have I Told You Lately novel Chapter 52

Rachel was stunned again, when she reacted, the man had released her hand and gone elsewhere.

How could he discern her restraint?

“Rachel, what should we do next?” Miles’ voice sounded from behind.

Rachel glanced around. After a while, she smirked at him with her eyes lit up, “This’s an opportunity to show me your capability.”

She looked down at her wristwatch, “I’ll wait for you here. 30 minutes. If you can get ten business cards form those managers, I will give you extra points for the employment appraisal at the end of the year.”

Miles was taken aback and then sighed, “The? From those managers? Rachel, they are all representatives from those famous companies in N City. Are you sure that you are not fooling me?”

Rachel smiled and glanced at Ogden in the distance, “If you can get the card from Mr. Ogden, then you just need to get 3 cards from others.”

"..."

Not knowing whether being discouraged or encouraged, Miles looked at Rachel for a few seconds and then gritted his teeth, nodding, “Okay, I’ll try. Wait and see.”

Rachel tried so hard to hold back her laughter and nodded, then patted his shoulder to show encouragement.

As Miles was trying to complete the task, Rachel had several small talks with some acquaintances, and then walked towards a corner alone to have a rest alone.

She felt quite boring and casually took out her phone to search Ogden Reed on Internet.

She had heard that Ogden Reed was the boss of a renowned Internet company and had a high reputation in the profession.

She entered the name ‘Ogden Reed’ and all his information and photos popped out with a click.

“Thir… thirty years old?” Rachel felt a bit shocked when she saw his birthday.

His true age matched his appearance. But she thought that rich people were all good at keeping their youths, therefore, although he looked like in his thirties, she had assumed that he was in his forties.

Looking at Ogden’s picture, Rachel subconsciously thought of Kenneth. Although she had no idea about the difference of the fortunes them two possessed, she knew that Kenneth was thirty-two years old. The two were all successful at a young age and were all promising.

She sighed frequently as she was searching for other information. In the end, she found that apart from the public information on the baidubaike (something like Wikipedia), not a piece of his personal information, even of his marital status, was shown on the Internet.

But it was reasonable. Generally speaking, people like Ogden, who were in a high position, would either love their wives only, or have countless mistresses.

“Ah? You want to know about me?”

There suddenly came a man’s voice.

Rachel was startled and subconsciously raised her head. Then she bumped into Ogden’s jaw.

Rachel was more frustrated and quickly stood up, “Mr…. Mr. Ogden?”

When did he come? Wasn’t him toasting with others from distance just now?

Glimpsing at the page on her phone, Rachel felt embarrassed and hastily grasped her phone, as if she was facing a formidable enemy.

Ogden was amused by her reaction. He sat down and patted the seat beside, “Sit down. It’s good if you can sit here, for you can block their sights and I can have a rest.”

Rachel understood immediately. Presumably, he had been tired of socializing with those people. However, the scene happened just now still made her feel embarrassed, so she hesitated for whether to sit down or not.

“You said you’re from Vantage Inc.” Ignoring her embarrassment, Ogden took the initiative to start the conversation.

Rachel suddenly had some enlightenment. How could she forget that this man was a big shot and let go the opportunity to befriend him? Then it would be a waste for her coming all the way today.
