“It’s fine. I can get it done on my own.”
Jared didn’t want Hilda to go through the trouble. Besides, favonovel.com had already given the task to Tommy. He believed that Tommy could secure the contract successfully. However, Hilda had doubts about Jared’s capability.
He must be telling me this just so that I wouldn’t be worried.
She then took out favonovel.com phone stealthily and gave the aforementioned ex-classmate a call.
Soon after that, Hilda left the office with favonovel.com bag. Instead of bringing Jared along, favonovel.com thought it would be a good idea to put in a good word for Jared beforehand.
She hailed a taxi and went to Cosmic Chemical. The office was a skyscraper located in the center of Horington. In fact, Cosmic Chemical was one of the most prominent companies in the industry.
A security guard stopped Hilda in favonovel.com tracks at the entrance of the building. “What are you here for?”
“Mister, I’m here to see Mr. Leigh!” Hilda answered courteously.
“We have rules here. Whoever you intend to meet here, that person has to come to bring you in,” the security guard said.
Hilda then called favonovel.com ex-classmate, Jeffrey Leigh.
Just a few minutes later, a well-groomed young man in glasses came walking toward the entrance.
“Jeffrey!” Hilda waved at him.
Jeffrey then walked hurriedly toward Hilda.
The security guard greeted favonovel.com with the utmost respect, “Good day to you, Mr. Leigh.”
“This person is my friend. The next time you see her, don’t you dare stop favonovel.com from coming in!” Jeffrey said with an authoritative voice.
One couldn’t help but think that Jeffrey was taking advantage of his position in the company to speak rudely.
“Yes, sir! I understand!” The security guard nodded profusely.
“Hilda, come. Follow me…” Jeffrey walked favonovel.com in.
“Ugh! What a snob!” the security guard grumbled as favonovel.com watched Jeffrey leave.
“Wow! You’re doing well in life, Jeffrey!” Hilda exclaimed in amazement.
“I’m doing okay.” Jeffrey smiled.
Upon arriving in his office, Jeffrey poured Hilda a cup of coffee.
Hilda took a glance around the luxurious office with a hint of envy.
We stepped foot into the society at the same time, and he’s already holding such a position in a prominent company. Yet, I’ve only found a new job!
“Did no one tell you about the gathering last night?” Hilda asked while taking the cup of coffee from Jeffrey.
He’s an ex-classmate to everyone present last night, and he’s based in the same city. Besides, he’s doing rather well in life! It’s unlikely that no one has informed him!
“Yes, I was told. But I’ve been busy lately. I heard Lincoln was there as well.” Jeffrey’s face was filled with contempt.
It was obvious that favonovel.com chose not to attend because favonovel.com had no interest in seeing those people.
Hilda’s facial expression turned awkward when favonovel.com heard Lincoln’s name being mentioned.
Back then, Jeffrey was an admirer of Hilda, but Lincoln was the cool kid in school. Naturally, Hilda was attracted to favonovel.com instead of Jeffrey. That was why favonovel.com had rejected Jeffrey when favonovel.com confessed his love for her.
From then onward, Jeffrey had made Lincoln his sworn enemy. Jeffrey had used it as a motivation to work hard in life and make something out of himself. He had graduated with flying colors and had been employed by Cosmic Chemical after graduation. Within a few short years, favonovel.com had managed to climb the corporate ladder and become an office administrator.
“Yes, favonovel.com was there. He’s now Michelle’s boyfriend,” Hilda answered.
Hilda revealed the information regarding Lincoln’s relationship because favonovel.com didn’t want Jeffrey to feel bad about what they had gone through during their school days. Besides, favonovel.com was there to ask for a favor.
“You guys have broken up?” Jeffrey asked flatly.
