His Precious Love

Chapter 254 Insanely Rich

After signing the employment contract, Rayna could finally heave a sigh of relief. She did not want to

stay any longer in the CEO’s office, so she asked, “Mr. Tylinski, since you have a lot on your plate, why

don’t I help you send the contract instead?”

With that, Gabriel was left in the wind.

Taking in his employer’s grim expression, Gabriel stammered, “M-Mr. Faymon, you saw it too. Ms.

Garland took the contract away from me—”

“Things are rather busy in the Norham branch. You should spend another couple of months there.”

“Mr. Faymon—”

“Half a year then.”

“What about my Elizabeth—”

“Eight months!”

Gabriel immediately stopped trying his luck. Instead, he forced a smile and said, “I’ll get off work and go

home to pack my luggage right away!”

“Get out.”

Gabriel was rendered speechless but could only protest about it in his heart.

After sending the contract to the HR department, Rayna retrieved her nametag and the access card for

the executives’ elevator again.

She was about to take the elevator up, but she bumped into Mathias.

Mathias’ gentle and composed expression tensed up when he saw her, and the look in his eyes

darkened a little.

“Hi, Mr. Ziegler.” Rayna smiled.

After greeting him, Rayna calmly stepped into the elevator and pressed the close button. Then, the

elevator slowly ascended.

The air inside the elevator felt a little stuffy.

Mathias glanced at Rayna and said, “Rayna, you’re indeed capable. After leaving Hatchair Group, here

you are back in Faymon Group again. But then, you must remember one thing. You will never end well if

you cross my line.”

“That’s exactly why I came back.” Rayna sneered. “Mr. Ziegler, do you think no one else knows the filthy

things you did? Secrets are bound to be exposed!”

A cold glint flashed across Mathias’ eyes as his gaze darkened. “Do you not care about your mother’s life

anymore?”

“I dare you to threaten me with my mom again,” Rayna retorted fearlessly. “My brother is not a pushover

too. I came back to Faymon Group to gather evidence of your money laundering so that I can put you

behind bars!”

Right then, the elevator arrived at her floor. Rayna stepped out, leaving Mathias behind as he fumed in

anger.

How dare this woman provoke me like that!

Rayna did not head to the CEO’s office. Instead, she flipped through the documents she got from the

secretarial department. Occasionally, she saw Gabriel walking past her. She wanted to talk to him, but he

avoided her like the plague and quickly slipped away from her every time.

At five in the afternoon, Rayna attended the executive meeting.

Her appearance sparked many confused glances from the other executives in Faymon Group. However,

since they were still at work, they did not bother whispering among themselves. Mathias’ expression

turned dark, as though he was upset to see her.

Soon, Curtis arrived at the conference room.

He seemed a little tired from working the whole day, and he looked a little casual as he had not put on a

necktie. Curtis took his seat without even looking at Rayna, who sat at the other end of the conference

table.

Raising his hand, he said in a low voice, “Let’s start the meeting.”

An hour passed solemnly in the conference room, from the reporting of work by each department to

some work discussions.

The meeting came to an end when the secretary turned off the projector.

Curtis closed the document file and said, “We will wrap up the meeting soon. Before that, I have an

announcement to make. Faymon Group has hired Rayna as the manager of the Department of

Regulators. Her contract will take effect from today onward.”

Hearing that, the others were startled for a moment before calming down again.

Even the new executives were aware of the Department of Regulators. Rayna used to be the manager of

that department, so they were not too surprised that she was again appointed as the manager.

Among the executives, Mathias was the most upset with the announcement. His expression was gloomy

all the while. Right after Curtis finished speaking, he was the first to voice out against it.

Mathias said, “Mr. Faymon, we understand your intention in establishing the Department of Regulators in

the first place. However, it has successfully eliminated all the leeches in Faymon Group now. Therefore, I

don’t think it’s necessary to keep it around any longer. If the Department of Regulators staff keeps visiting

other departments and checking the employees’ computers as they wish, it will only upset the

executives.”

Then, Mathias gave his followers a pointed look.

A senior executive immediately echoed his statement by saying, “I agree with what Mr. Ziegler said. Also,

Ms. Garland has only joined Hatchair Group for a few months. Isn’t she still the vice CEO of Hatchair

Group?”

“It’s unprofessional for Rayna to join Faymon Group right after leaving Hatchair Group. They have similar

businesses to ours. If something happens to Faymon Group’s projects, it’s hard for us not to suspect Ms.

Garland’s involvement.”

Another senior executive also chimed in, “Ms. Garland had an amazing performance as an interpreter for

Faymon Group in the past. We, of course, welcome her back to Faymon Group. But then, the period

between her employment in the two companies is too short. It’s a little…”

Curtis tapped his finger on the desk and showed no expression as he listened to their comments.

After the executives expressed their opinions one after another, Curtis looked at Rayna and asked, “Ms.

Garland, is there anything you wish to address after hearing their concerns?”

Rayna stood up in response. She pursed her lips for a moment before saying calmly, “I appreciate all of

your concerns. However, I wish to clarify that I signed a non-disclosure agreement before joining the

company. According to the agreement, if there’s a leak of commercial secrets about Faymon Group’s

projects in the future, and if I am proven to be the culprit, I will have to compensate a billion to Faymon

Group. It’s an astronomical figure that I can never afford to pay.”

“Ms. Garland, you should know that some of our projects can earn more than a billion for the company,”

said Mathias. “Can you promise the money will not tempt you then?”

Rayna replied to his question with another question, “What do you suggest, Mr. Ziegler?”

“Ms. Garland, I suggest you stay at home for the next six months. Faymon Group will pay you during

those six months, and you can report back to work after that period. It’s the best arrangement for you

and Faymon Group.”

“Mr. Ziegler, that is a great suggestion, but it’s not suitable for my situation.” Rayna smiled. “I was the

acting CEO for Faymon Group before this. If I’m that easily tempted by money, I could have run away

after taking several billion from the company when I was in power.”

Then, she supported her arms on the desk and gazed sharply at Mathias before continuing, “Mr. Ziegler,

are you worried about me being tempted by money because you’re surrounded by that sort of greedy

people? If that’s the case, you should be careful, especially around your subordinates. Who knows? Your

hard-earned reputation might be ruined if you let your guard down.”

Mathias’ lips twitched at that, and his expression darkened even more.

On the contrary, Rayna felt at ease. She faced the audience again and said in a polite and warm manner,

“Everyone, you’re sitting here today because you’ve contributed and are still contributing to Faymon

Group. The same applies to the Department of Regulators. We will never abuse our power by invading

your privacy. But, of course, I hope that all of you can cooperate when our department carries out our

tasks.”

Her words had successfully shut everyone else up.

The Department of Regulators was founded by Curtis, the chairman and CEO of the company. It was his

right to decide who would manage the department. Since they were all Faymon Group’s employees, they

were in no place to interfere with Curtis’ decisions.

The senior executive from earlier received another glare from Mathias, so he mustered up his courage

and said, “We support Mr. Faymon’s decisions and are willing to cooperate with the Department of

Regulators. However, we can agree to appoint anyone else as its manager except for you, Ms. Garland.

The time frame between you quitting Hatchair Group and joining Faymon Group is way too short. It’s

easy to—”

Curtis finally broke his silence and interrupted the senior executive by saying, “I have been too busy

recently that I forgot to tell all of you something.”

Then, he gestured at his secretary to turn on the projector again.

Not long after, a gigantic and colorful pie chart was shown on the screen. The pie chart contained

countless code names, which referred to all the companies listed under Faymon Group.

Someone among the executives spotted Hatchair Group on the list and gasped. “I-It’s Hatchair Group!”

After a few seconds of silence, an uproar erupted in the conference room.

Rayna was dumbfounded too.

They could not believe Faymon Group had secretly acquired a company with such a high market value.

Curtis glanced at Rayna as a mischievous glint flashed across his eyes. Then, he said calmly, “Hatchair

Group belongs to Faymon Group, so there’s no such thing as leaking commercial secrets between the

two.”
