As the car did not have tinted windows, it only took Rayna a second to see who the driver of the car was. Indeed, it was Wyatt.
Just then, she saw a slender hand reaching out from the passenger seat, passing an uncapped bottle of mineral water to the man.
Rayna was rendered speechless.
Why is he driving a sports car with his pregnant wife in it?
However, a creased appeared between Rayna’s brows the next instant when she noticed a small tattoo on the woman’s finger in addition to her thin wrist.
Huh?
When did Jessie get a tattoo?
As they were in the middle of the road, it was not convenient for Rayna to get out of the car to greet them. As such, she rolled down the car window while reaching into her bag for her phone, intending to call them.
After Rayna lowered her window, and while she was waiting for Wyatt to pick up the phone, the woman in the passenger seat suddenly leaned over to kiss Wyatt. She had long green hair and was not Jessica!
“F*ck!” Rayna cursed as her expression darkened.
She tried calling Wyatt a few times, but the man did not seem to notice his phone ringing. Rayna clenched her teeth in frustration when she realized that Wyatt might have already blocked her number.
She looked around before picking up an accessory from her car dashboard.
Just as she was about to throw it at Wyatt’s car, the traffic light turned green.
When Rayna looked out of her window again, Wyatt’s car was already nowhere to be seen.
As the vehicles behind her started honking impatiently, she quickly started her car and began driving. Rayna wanted to chase after Wyatt, but the assistant from Glory called again, asking her where she was.
She had no choice but to give up the idea as it was an important day for her, given that it was the day she was supposed to start work at the new office.
“Wyatt, you scumb*g! Just wait! I will come for you after I’m done with my work!”
She thought that Wyatt had already stopped playing the field, but it seemed like a leopard could never change its spots. How dare he drive another woman around in his sports car when his wife is pregnant!
Around twenty minutes later, Rayna arrived at the financial district.
Norwal City had a large financial district that was occupied by both small and established companies in the finance industry. As the industry’s most prominent player, Faymon Group and its subsidiaries took up the entire south end of the area while the other businesses were situated in the north.
After locating the building where Glory’s office was, Rayna drove her car into the underground parking lot.
The companies on the north end of the financial district were mostly on a smaller scale. Apart from a few bigger companies that owned their own office buildings like Faymon Group, the rest of the businesses were all housed in the same building. As such, the office lobby was usually very crowded.
For most companies, office hours started at nine or ten in the morning. As such, during those hours, the elevators were always packed.
Rayna was squeezed into the back of the elevator as more people entered. She carried her bag in front of her to protect the babies in her belly.
A few women, who seemed to be from the same company, started gossiping as the elevator slowly moved up.
“Have you guys heard the news? We have a new CEO.”
“Yeah! I heard that the new CEO is of mixed blood. It seems like his family has been doing business in Epea all along.”
“Mixed blood? He must be really handsome. I can’t wait to see him!”
“Don’t even start dreaming. I heard that he is already attached. Anyway, do you guys know who he has appointed as the new vice CEO? We have been told to pay more attention to our appearances as the new vice CEO will be reporting to the office today.”
“Who is it?”
“It’s Rayna who was previously from Faymon Group. Shocking, right?”
“Why is it her?” Another woman said enviously in a rather dramatic tone, “I heard that she used to date Mr. Faymon. Do you think she is our new CEO’s girlfriend? If that’s the case, she must be the luckiest woman in the world.”
