Female Novel
Chapter 2526
Before Vivian could answer, Rain could not help but make fun of Gordan, "Aren't you very capable?Can't you find out yourself?"
Gordan frowned as he was displeased that Rain stood up for Vivian, even if it was because sheempathized with her as a woman.
Nevertheless, Rain worked for Luke, so he could not say anything. All he could do was stare at Vivian'sback.novelbin
After a few seconds, Vivian took a deep breath and replied, "It's a Nordic brand, Maslikon. The mostexpensive one."
"Okay," Gordan responded simply but frowned.
Vivian seemed to have lost a lot of weight. As he continued to stare at her, he thought that herappearance had changed after this major event.
Vivian put on a sad smile. She did not dare to turn around and look at Gordan again, so she pulled onthe door handle and walked out of the reception room.
Cheryl was walking toward the room when she saw Vivian and Rain. She stepped to the side of thecorridor and greeted them respectfully, "Are you leaving?"
"Yes, please clean up the cups in the reception room," Rain said.
"Okay." Cheryl lowered her gaze. She waited for the two to leave, walked into the pantry, and picked upthe tray before she reentered the reception room.
She was stunned when she saw Gordan there.
‘Does Gordan know the woman from just now? What's the relationship between the two?'
Cheryl could not help but imagine.
'The two of them don't look like they're related, so... could it be a working relationship? After all, ahandsome man like Gordan would never be interested in that ugly woman.'
"What are you doing?" Gale frowned when he saw Cheryl standing in the doorway.
"Mr. Gale, I'm here to clean up the room," Cheryl said as she glanced at the coffee cups on the coffeetable.
The coffee was not great, so Gale nodded and said, "Go for it."
"Yes." Cheryl put all the coffee cups on the tray. Her heartbeat could not help speeding up when shesaw Gordan frowning. She thought that he looked amazing even when he frowned and that she wouldbe proud to bring him out as her boyfriend!
"Mr. Norton, do you want coffee?" Cheryl asked shyly.
Gordan's mood was gloomy, and he firmly refused her, "No."
"Okay." Cheryl was a little disappointed. Tina had made him coffee when he was in Luke's office. Shewanted to make him a cup of coffee herself, but unfortunately, the man in front of her did not seem tobe in a good mood.
She left with the tray.
Gale picked up the transfer agreement that remained, flipped through it, and tsked. "This villa isexpensive."
"So what?" Gordan leaned against the sofa and looked at him.
"This is a house that other people dream of, but you want absolutely nothing to do with it. You canhandle the sales of the villa yourself, so why must you have Miss Vivian handle it herself?" Gale did notunderstand what was on their minds.
The two of them did not want that house and treated it like it was a hot potato. Gordan wanted to throwit away immediately.
It had been dealt with now, but Gale felt that Gordan was still not in a good mood.
"That's her villa, of course, she should be the one handling it." Gordan frowned, snorted coldly, andstood up.
"Where are you going?" Gale stood up.
"I'm heading to the CEO's office. Do you want to come along?" Gordan wanted to talk to Luke.
"Boss' office? I'll go with you. I have something to report to him." Gale walked out the door with Gordan.
"How much did that woman pay you two to be her bodyguards and for Rain to speak for her?" Gordanwas a little unhappy, so his voice was muffled. 'Why was I attacked by Rain?'
"She didn't pay us anything. The boss asked us to do it. As for Rain, maybe it's because they're bothwomen, so she's not happy with your behavior." Gale guessed. Even if he was a man, he felt Gordanshould not have done that and was acting stupid.
"How could Luke be like this? I don't know what that woman did to him. He's not taking my side at all."Gordan could not help but feel resentful.
He hated women talking back to him. It bruised his ego. However, his supposedly gentlemanlydemeanor did not allow him to hit women for no reason.
"If you think about it, the boss is on your side." Gale frowned and spoke for Luke.
Gordan rolled his eyes at him before he said, "You're his subordinate. Of course, you would say suchthings."
"If the boss isn't on your side, he wouldn't let you be in his office every day. He would be sure to kickyou out if you were someone else, even if you sat without a word for a whole day. The boss didn't dothat no matter how much noise you created in his office. Isn't he helping you? If it weren't for youdisturbing his work, Ms. Vivian probably wouldn't have agreed to see you and the house would still beunder your name," Gale said.
Gordan frowned. 'It seems like he has a point.'
Luke was helping him indirectly.
After all, Vivian's temperament did not allow her to trouble others because of her matters.
As such, hanging around Luke's office was a hundred times better than waiting at the gate of thecommunity.
Luke prepared a meal for him likely because he knew that Vivian would help with cooking and wouldeventually find out that he had been frequenting Luke's office.
Gordan was speechless when he thought of the steak he prepared the other day.
Luke was the one that proposed for them to have steak...
It seemed that his arrangement was clever and natural. Even he did not notice his true intentions for awhile.
Gale patted him on the shoulder seeing that Gordan did not say a word. "Now you realize that the bosshas made the appropriate arrangements."
After he said that, he knocked on the door of Luke's office, got a response, opened the door, andwalked in.
"Boss, Rain and I have completed the task you assigned us," Gale said.
Luke nodded and looked at Gordan, who walked in from behind Gale. His expression was neitherhappy nor relaxed, so Luke asked, "Things didn't go how you wanted it to?"
"No, the hot potato is gone." Gordan likened the house to a hot potato.
Luke shook his head and did not continue talking.
Gale closed the office door and went straight to it. "Boss, when our men were monitoring Matyshyesterday, they found several more people entering and leaving his guest room. It seems that he'll bemaking a move soon enough."
"How's the investigation going?" Luke looked at Gordan. He did not only ask Ray and the others toinvestigate blackmail material on Matysh in Russia, but he also asked Gordan to help on the matter.
After all, the two had fundamentally different investigation methods.
"We're getting somewhere. Give me another day. Maybe he'll be deported before he can do anything,"Gordan said.
"That fast?" Gale could not help but wonder.
"Of course. I have my intelligence network. Once the information is verified, it can be handed over tothe relevant departments. However, we may be against Marcos' wishes if we deal with the matter as
such," Gordan said.
