Have I Told You Lately novel Chapter 74

“What kind of learning opportunity?” Miles smiled but he never showed any signs of excitement.

Rachel turned on her laptop and replied casually, “I’m going to visit a few clients in City J this week.

You should arrange your time and see if you can make time for it. I’m going with Magi.”

“What about name cards?”

“…”

Rachel raised her brows and looked at Miles, “Well, isn’t it just a small trick for you?”

How dare this kid insult her for what happened before. What about asking for name cards? She suffered more than him when she first entered this company.

Miles smiled brightly and showed his white teeth, “I do have time to attend. Send the departure date. I’ll get ready.”

Rachel looked at the computer screen and said softly, “I’ll ask Magi to inform you. But for you we go, you need to complete all the tasks on your plate first.”

She never doubted his capabilities.

“Sure thing,” Miles nodded, “Rachel, then I shall go and get busy now?”

“Hold on,” Rachel saw the disposable coffee cup at the side, and her sign of coldness showed beneath her eyes. She requested, “Follow up with what I told you to do just now.”

Miles stunned, “What?”

He looked at the direction she was staring. He saw the cup of coffee Rachel put aside earlier, and remembered, “Buy drinks for Dragon Age? I thought you said no earlier.”

Rachel was typing on her keyboard. She smiled, “Well, we didn’t buy them drinks in the morning, so we'll return the favour in the afternoon instead. We should repay their effort, or else we may seem petty. Order first, my treat. Don’t need to claim from the Finance Department. I’ll pay you back later.”

“Alright,” Miles nodded in confusion. When he was about to turn and leave, he recalled something. So he walked back to Rachel’s desk and smiled, “Let me take a look at the logo. I’ll look it up on the internet.”

He turned on his phone camera and repositioned the disposable coffee cup. However, he was surprised when his finger touched the cup, “Cold drinks?”

“I…I thought it was supposed to be a hot drink? Why is there ice in it?” Miles didn’t believe what he felt. He opened the disposable coffee cup and shook it, and he saw some ice-pieces in the drink.

Even if it is warmer in the afternoon, no one would have cold drinks in this weather.

No wonder Rachel kept drinking hot water when she walked into the office.

Rachel smiled and replied as if she didn’t care, “Maybe they made a mistake.”

Miles's lips twitched. How can Rachel have the mood to joke?

Just now Sabrina said she purposely ordered the new drink for Rachel. How can it be a mistake?

Miles hesitated and asked curiously, “Rachel, you don’t get along with Sabrina? You guys knew each other?”

But Dragon Age had just moved in not long ago.

Rachel looked at Miles as if she heard a joke, “I knew you are good at talking but I didn’t expect you to be such a busybody. Alright, what happened between girls stay between girls. Just do what I told you to. But remember, tell them the drinks are from Sabrina. It is too dry out there. They might need some cold drinks to fight against food coma after lunch.”

Miles stroked his chin and smiled playfully, “I understand what you want now, Rachel. I will get your revenge for you.”

“…”

Rachel didn’t even say anything about revenge.

But she didn’t further discuss it. She waved her hand and asked Miles to go back to work.

Sabrina had already left the office. When she arrived at the lobby of the building, she dialled a set of number.

The moment the call connected, a bright smile showed on her cheek. She talked in a cheerful and obedient tone, “Aunty, I’ll have dinner with you tonight?”

“…”

“Alright, see you tonight. Goodbye.”

After ending the call, the smile on Sabrina’s cheek got cold. She looked at the direction where Vantage Inc. was with hatred beneath her eyes.

During the afternoon, Rachel was discussing the projects on their hands with her subordinate in their department. The soft voices of discussion suddenly covered up by a loud voice from the entrance.

“Hello, I’m looking for Ms. Lewis.”

“Wow, he is looking for Rachel.”

“Oh my, who is that? It is so romantic!”
