    Chapter 80 How Irritating


    After a momentary hesitation, Gabriel called out to the man cautiously, “Mr. Faymon?”


    “I see you’re all worked up,” Curtis remarked casually. “What’s up? Do you have a n in mind


    already?”


    “No, no. I was just sharing my opinion regarding the matter,” Gabriel hurriedly said as beads of cold


    sweat slid down his face. “Ms. Gand and I are too ipatible. There won’t be any sparks between


    us.”


    He then handed over the folder in his hand and swiftly switched the topic. “Mr. Faymon, this is the


    secretarial department’s newest recruit, Naomi Gardner. She has a bachelor’s degree inw from


    Corleon University.”


    “A high-achievingw student wants to be a secretary?” Curtis asked in puzzlement. As soon as


    he flipped open the folder, his gazended on the picture of an attractive-looking woman. “Is she


    Jetroinian?”


    Gabriel hummed an acknowledgment. “Yes. I ran a background check on her. Her mother’s from


    Chanaea, and her family isn’t that well-off. Before this, she was working in Norham, and it was her


    previouspany that rmended her to Faymon Group.”


    “I’ve seen her reports thus far, and they’re all perfect. Most importantly, she’s able to handle the people


    from the secretarial department. Mr. Faymon, if you think she’s suited for the job, then I’ll give her the


    contract,” he added.


    Curtis’ gaze scanned the rest of the documents. A momentter, he said, “Hire her, but only let her take


    care of domestic affairs. You should continue handling Norham and other important matters.”


    Gabriel replied in the affirmative.


    He’d run a thorough check on the new hire and only dared to report to Curtis after making sure there


    was nothing amiss about Naomi. Nheless, it was perfectly reasonable for Curtis to be wary, for the


    woman was originally aw student who switched career paths and also a Jetroinian.


    When Rayna shut her eyes, the image of Curtis swirled through her mind, and she instantly blushed.


    Why do I keep thinking about him?


    After tossing and turning in the bed for a long time, she was finally able to fall asleep, but unfortunately,


    her slumber didn’tst long. A series of knocks sounded, followed by Gabriel’s voice. “Ms. Gand, we


    have to leave now. Please get ready.”


    Rayna dared not waste time and quickly got herself ready before heading downstairs with Gabriel.


    Two off-road vehicles were parked outside the hotel’s entrance, and each vehicle had a muscr man


    standing beside it. Both of the rugged-looking men were at least six feet tall and had sharp eyes, giving


    off the impression that they had just returned from war.


    Rayna recognized them at first nce.


    She had interacted with Cillian before and knew he was a bodyguard. It was just that he had a carefree


    personality and was easy to get along with. Looking at the two menacing men in front of her, Rayna


    reckoned they were in the same profession as Cillian.


    She then whispered to Gabriel, “Are Silver Panther and Gray Wolfing along as well?”


    “Gray Wolf will be looking after Ms. Kristie tonight, while Silver Panther will keep watch. Tomorrow,


    once the people are here, they’ll take a separate road and reconvene with you and Mr. Faymon,”


    exined Gabriel.


    Thinking of Kristie’s superiorityplex, Rayna shook her head. “I suppose it’s not easy to be that


    pampereddy’s bodyguard.”


    “This is Ms. Kristie’s thirty-third bodyguard,” he exined calmly and honestly. “I heard that Gray Wolf’s


    cooking is to her liking, so she’s been keeping him around.”


    “Being a bodyguard is terrible. He even has to cook for her.” She snickered.


    After chatting for a bit, she fished out a pen and a piece of paper from her bag and scribbled on it


    before passing it to Gabriel. “Help me buy these things and have them send them over tomorrow.”


    The man nced at it and kept it in his pocket. “All right. Please head to the car, Ms. Gand. Mr.


    Faymon has been waiting for a while now.”


    “Sure. I’ll leave it to you, then.”


    Rayna descended the stairs, and the man standing beside the car instantly opened the door for her.


    She thanked him and mustered her strength to hop into the seat next to Curtis.


    Thetter was d in a ck trench coat and had his legs crossed, exuding an elegant aura. When


    Rayna got into the car, he took a nce at her and asked, “Have you settled everything?”


    “Yes. I asked Gabriel to help me buy some things.”


    Curtis said nothing to that and merely instructed the driver to start driving.


    The two off-road vehicles left the hotel and got onto the main road, one after another. Besides the


    sound of the tire screeching on the road, there was no other noise in the car.


    Rayna, feeling rather bored, took out her phone and went through some of the videos she had


    downloaded. Halfway through the video, the car seemed to have taken a different path. The bumpy


    road caused the car to sway, leaving Rayna feeling slightly drowsy.


    Although she tried to resist it, her eyelids eventually fluttered shut as her phone slipped out of her


    hands, and when the car shook, her body began leaning toward Curtis.


    He had just settled some documents when he noticed his shoulder was feeling a little heavier than


    usual.


    The cause of that weight was none other than Rayna leaning against him.


    Curtis pursed his lips and moved the woman’s head away from his shoulder, putting her back in her


    seat.


    A momentter, the car shook again, and all of his prior efforts went to waste when she fell onto hisp.


    He was left speechless while the sleeping beauty remained blissfully unaware of what was going on.


    She merely adjusted her body and slipped into afortable position to continue her slumber.


    Curtis watched as the woman slept peacefully, with her mouth slightly agape. The way she looked so


    unguarded swept away the frustrations in his heart, recing them with tranquility.


    He grabbed the quilt and gently ced it over Rayna. A wave of emotions glinted in his eyes as his


    finger grazed her face, but just as quickly, it disappeared.


    What a silly woman.


    The car was still shaking when Rayna woke up. From her perspective, she could see the man’s jaw


    and smell the faint minty scent on his body.


    Coming to her senses, she hastily got up and put a wide distance between the two of them.


    When she noticed the patch of saliva stain on his pants, Rayna’s face instantly flushed red, and she


    stammered, “M-Mr. Faymon, why didn’t you push me away?”


    “I did, but you lunged at me again,” said Curtis as he casually wiped away the saliva with a piece of


    tissue.


    Rayna’s ears turned scarlet as embarrassment surged within her. Lunge is such a suggestive phrase!


    After getting past the awkwardness, she took out some food from her lunch bag, intending to fill her


    stomach. At that moment, the scenery outside of the window suggested they weren’t in the city center


    anymore. Upon asking the man, Rayna found out that they’d left the city three hours ago.


    Fifteen minutester, the two off-road vehicles stopped at an intersection.

    Rayna felt stuffy after being in the car for so long, so she got out of the car for a breath of fresh air.


    When she scanned her surroundings, she realized that they were surrounded by parchednd with no


    greenery in sight and only a tall mountain in the distance.


    Shortly after, Rayna felt as if the ground beneath her feet was trembling. She turned around and


    noticed a cloud of dust, followed by multiple off-road vehicles emerging from it.


    In total, there were six off-road vehicles.


    Moreover, they were slightly different from the one Rayna and Curtis had taken. The exterior of the


    vehicles waspletely covered by a silver imprable protective shield.


    The door of the vehicle that was at the very front was pushed open, and Cillian jumped out of it.


    “Ms. Gand.” When he walked up to Rayna and her entourage, he handed an aluminum box to her.


    “Mr. Tylinski gave me this box before I left and asked that I bring it to you.”


    “Thank you.” She took the box over and nced behind him. “Why is it just you? Is Gray Wolf not


    coming?”


    Cillian propped his arms on his hips, exining, “He can’t make it for now. Kristie slept in and missed


    her morning flight, so she had to book an afternoon one and insisted he follows her.”


    The corner of Rayna’s lips twitched when she heard that.


    Overbearing and selfish—two words that aptly describe Kristie’s style.


    “Ms. Gand, do you like him or something?” Cillian queried, his tone suggestive.


    “Of course not,” she eximed in amusement. “Didn’t you say he’s a good marksman? I’m curious, so I


    want to see what he looks like.”


    “Don’t be too disappointed, Ms. Gand. He’ll be here tomorrow, and you’ll definitely be able to see him


    then.”


    “Is that so?”


    In the car, Curtis listened to the two’s exchange and couldn’t help feeling irritated, especially at Cillian’s


    words. Annoyed, he knitted his brows together and peeked outside.
