Lie Flat, Sugar Daddy novel Chapter 16

The reply came with a “click” sound.

Received.

Rae Jordan put away her thoughts and deleted the traces. She took a deep breath, thinking that she had worried too much. As Eric Parry said, it wouldn’t be easy to ruin a listed company, and maybe he couldn’t make it at all. She’d even thought about leaving the Knight Group. She could just leave. She should be happy as she could start over with someone whom she once loved but couldn’t. Why would she still care about the man who played her like a fool?

Knock-knock-knock.

Someone knocked on the door, then it was opened. A handsome man pushed the door in and shouted, “Miss Jordan, Knight Group replied that they’re interested in our cooperative project. They asked us to meet at the Knight Group at four o’clock.”

“Ha! Go get your stuff and come with me later!” When Rae heard this, she laughed happily!

‘What does it mean to cooperate with the Knight Group? It means money.’

If she could cooperate with Knight Group, her partner, the reputation of her company would increase. At that time, there will be many companies that will come forward to seek for collaboration! She also didn’t know why Jensen Knight had suddenly figured it out. She didn’t pass up this document through the normal procedure. It was just one day after their meal, she threw the document on his desk, saying that she wanted to cooperate with him. At that time, Jensen said arrogantly that her company was just a small company that only had a registered capital of 200,000 yuan, then why should he cooperate with her.

It was a surprise that he had now agreed.

Rae was happy. She couldn’t sit still, she opened the door and walked out. Her company only had one floor, full of tables and chairs, and the atmosphere was quite relaxed. The most important thing was that 80% of her employees were handsome guys. After all, her first requirement for recruiting people was their appearances. Rae raised her hand and knocked on the desk of her secretary, the man who knocked on her door just now. Then she instructed, “Ask what they want to eat, I’ll pay for the afternoon tea.”

Before the afternoon tea was delivered, Rae left with her secretary.

When they arrived at the Knight Group, Rae told the secretary her identity. The female secretary immediately took them to a conference room on the upper floor. Then, she served them a cup of coffee, told them to wait for a while, and she left the room.

“Miss Jordan, when did you hand in the document of the cooperative project, why I don’t know about it?” Her secretary picked up the cup and took a sip of coffee. He couldn’t help but look around, and this was really a big company. The conference room was half the size of their company. There was no comparison between the two companies as Knight Group had a building while their company only had one floor.

“Boss always worked hard secretly, and don’t you bother. You shouldn’t glance around. Although our company is small, we should have ambitions. Just like women, lovely though petite.” Rae said.

When her secretary heard the description, he was speechless and immediately dared not to look around again.

After sitting for a while, a person-in-charge came in and talked to them seriously in a business-like manner. Rae responded to the person in charge naturally from beginning to end. She answered all the questions respectfully. She felt good about herself after the conversation. In the end, the person in charge even exchanged business cards with her and said she would be notified when the senior management had a decision. Rae and her secretary got up to leave. When they were in the lobby, a group of people walked in. Rae caught a glimpse of the woman who was protected in the middle.

It was Karina Clark.

She was wearing a black dress adorned with diamonds, but she didn’t know if they were real or fake. The diamonds glittered and dazzled her.

Karina was surrounded by at least six bodyguards in suits. When the crowd saw the group of bodyguards entering the room in an imposing manner, they automatically made way for them.

In fact, Rae had no idea how these rich people’s brains worked. If they were afraid of being robbed, they shouldn’t be walking around in fancy outfits that were worthy. Did they think those robbers were idiots? She dressed fancily while hiring so many bodyguards to protect her. Did she really think she was a princess? It turned out that people who talked about philosophy were also pedantic.

“Miss Jordan, Miss Jordan?” Her secretary hurriedly called out to her twice when he saw her frozen.

“I can’t wait. I need to find a toilet. You go back on your own, don’t wait for me.” Rae said quickly, leaving her secretary and walking quickly towards the elevator. Karina took the elevator reserved for that upper management. Rae wondered if Karina was going to find Jensen. Rae wasn’t a generous woman, so she immediately decided to follow to see what was going on.

When Rae took the regular elevator to the highest floor it could reach, she climbed another dozen floors to the floor where Jensen’s office was located. She gasped for breath with arms akimbo. She was thinking nobody could be as tired as her in terms of finding her man is cheating on her. She sneaked out from the back stairs. Surprisingly, there weren’t many people on this floor. She could finally meet a female secretary. Rae was shocked, thinking how she should introduce herself. However, the secretary just smiled at her, told her that Mr. Knight was in his office, and then let her go.

Rae gave her an odd look, then walked towards Jensen’s office. As Rae stood in front of the dark door, she wanted to directly push the door out of habit. But once she thought that Karina might be there, she didn’t act impulsively. She got close to the door to eavesdrop if there was any unusual voice.
