It'll Come Naturally novel Chapter 766

"What? Didn't you say you wanted to talk to me about my job? Why am I here now? What does Duke want?" Rachel was a little worried that Duke had seen the sensational trending post on the company website. She had created it deliberately. She just wanted all her colleagues to assume she was really Duke's girlfriend. She hadn't expected the post would attract so much attention. But not long after it was published on the website, a flood of comments came up under it. Now Rachel was a little nervous. She was afraid that Duke would think she had asked someone to put the gossip on the website. She hadn't expected he would figure out that it was her in such a short time.

"But did I say you had to talk to me? Hurry up and get inside! Mr. Leng will get angry if he is kept waiting for long. Doesn't matter who the person is, it's a horrible sight when he gets vexed!" Janice informed her mockingly. She was not too familiar with Belinda, but she liked her forthright personality. And now, all of a sudden this woman was claiming to be Mr. Leng's girlfriend. It was quite unacceptable!

As Rachel gently knocked on the door, she thought about how she could deal with this situation. If Duke asked her about the post, how would she reply to him? If she was lucky, he might not have seen the post yet. She couldn't show him she was afraid.

"Come in." Duke clicked to close the website. The Tech Department was not bad. In a short time, they had managed to remove every trace of the rumor from the website. Apparently he needed to grant them a bonus. He was pretty satisfied with the efficiency.

"Duke, did you call for me?" Rachel raised her hand and patted her curly hair. She smiled charmingly and walked toward Duke, her hips swaying.

"I want to know why such a post was sent out on the company website." Duke did not ask her to sit down. He leaned back against the chair. He zeroed in on her, and was interested in her answer.

"Website? Post? What are you talking about? I don't know about that!" Rachel tilted her head, pretending to have no idea about what he said. As long as she insisted that sending out the post had nothing to do with her, what ever could he do with her? Although she had misled the employees, it wasn't her intention to let the rumor spread like wildfire. And so what if he was the company President, he could not impose these charges on her!

"Rachel, it's not like you to continue to pretend. I don't believe you know nothing about the gossip on the company website." Duke's face had turned cold. His whole body seemed to turn into ice. What was the most irritating was that someone used him to publicize themselves. For this very reason, he never did media interviews. He didn't want his private life to become the headline of the company's grapevine! How could he not get angry about this?

"Duke, the more you say, the more confused I get. I don't know what you are talking about! Janice just said she wanted to talk to me about my job. She didn't say anything to me about the post on the website." Although Rachel's heart was a little uneasy, she kept calm and tried to persuade him that she didn't know what he was talking about.

"Well, let me put it another way. Did you tell others I have known you since young?" Duke's eyebrows snapped together. Just last night, he had begun to think she had straightened herself out and would not persecute him anymore. He had begun to not dislike her as much as he used to. But he had not imagined that in this short time, she could put out such a rumor. What was her purpose in doing that?

"Do you want me to lie?" Rachel circled her arms around her chest and blinked her big, watery eyes, looking at him innocently.

"No, so tell me why you call yourself my secret lover." Duke gnashed his teeth together. He ignored her fetching figure that she was deliberately trying to show off. His face showed impatience.

"I never said I am your secret lover. Before you accuse me of anything, don't you think you ought to have evidence? Or am I such a horrible woman in your eyes?" Rachel shook her head, pretending to be utterly disappointed. Her eyes grew misty.
