Have I Told You Lately novel Chapter 134

His handsome face seemed to have emerged suddenly from behind. Rachel was shocked and even Ogden narrowed his eyes.

The female secretary looked at her boss and then consciously stepped aside.

Ogden concealed his emotions, his smile deepening, “Mr. Shawn, you didn’t specially come here to see me off, right?”

Rachel reacted slowly and greeted him awkwardly, “Mr. Shawn.”

Kenneth seemed to have not seen her. He walked straight to Ogden, he was calm and smiling, “I came to the airport to see a friend off and happened to see you. If I had known that you were going back today, then I would have invited you for drinks last night.”

Rachel was left standing there like an invisible person.

Sure enough, they were all very important people, the value of their words and deeds was unfathomable. She had been in the workplace for three years but hadn’t been able to achieve even one tenth of their shrewdness.

Ogden smiled lightly and patted him on the shoulder calmly and familiarly, “What is there to be so courteous between us. If I had the chance for you to invite me, I would have changed my flight back to City J for some other day. But you would have refused at the last moment saying you are busy.”

“Of course not. I am not so short of money that I can’t pay for a meal, I am just afraid I might be busy.” He said quietly, his expressions was calm.

Ogden laughed. His gentle and elegant temperament gave people the appearance of eternal peace, as if nothing could disturb his feelings, “I heard about your company matter, I just found out that people at Wintop Inc. did you dirty. Don’t take it to heart, I will make sure to give you a proper explanation for this.”

Kenneth raised his eyes to look at him. He still had a nonchalant smile on his face, “You are thinking too much, Mr. Reed. The cooperation was carefully designed by both parties voluntarily. It was because of them who gave up on us that Winton came in the picture, how could I be offended by that. I am quite jealous of the talent of people at the Wintop Inc. head office, they have even more insight than people at Dragon Age. Looking back, I think I should learn more from Wintop.”

Wintop Inc.?

Rachel was slightly startled to hear that name.

Back when she was working on Mr. Reed’s company’s documents, F&R Group, she seemed to have seen Wintop. It was under F&R Group and was also in City J. She remembered having seen it clearly. But what did it have to do with Dragon Age?

Listening to him talk, it seemed like there was a disagreement between the two companies.

Was it a business competition or…?

She raised her eyes and glanced at the two of them. They were both smiling, but it clearly made her feel an air of incomprehensible scheming.

When she looked up, Ogden seemed to have noticed her again and said seriously, “Miss Lewis, you should really see a doctor for the injury on your forehead.”

Rachel raised her hand to touch her hat and then nodded with a dry smile, “Okay, I will make sure to go without any delay after seeing you off.”

Kenneth looked at her forehead as if he just found out about it, but he kept his tone light as he said, “I will accompany her when she goes. As business partners, I should be concerned.”

Rachel didn’t know what to say.

‘Who asked you to care? Who asked you to talk?’

Unable to get angry, she had to laugh it off. She felt lousy but she still pulled a smile on her face, “Thank you, Mr. Shawn, but I am not a child. You don’t need to accompany me for such things.”

“Of course, he does. With Mr. Shawn there, I can be rest assured.” Ogden nodded solemnly and looked at his secretary behind him, “Bring it out.”

The secretary was taken aback, but then she reacted. She took out a square wrapped up box from a paper bag in her hand and gave it to him.
