In the afternoon, ina was skipping over the news again and found it still a hot topic on the Inte.
The Lory family admitted that Jalen and Alisha were about to get married in public, which directly made
it the most trending topic.
ina held her mobile phone and looked at thements on the Inte about it. Almost all of them
said that they were a good match. Most of thements were blessings. Thements on the
Inte were much more friendlypared with the period when ina was married to Jalen.
ina chuckled and turned off the phone. What was she doing?
What did Jalen’s marriage have to do with her? Did she have to think about it all morning?
In the Halton Group, some staff brought Graham into the resting room and gossiped about the matter,
“Mr. Reilly, is Mr. Halton indeed going to marry the daughter of the Lory family?”
“I don’t know either.” Graham had mixed feelings. He never knew that his colleagues were so
interested in gossip.
“You are Mr. Halton’s assistant. You are the only one who knows the best about him. Just tell us about
it. We promise not to tell anyone else!” Someone was unwilling to move on easily and thought that
Graham was just covering the truth. As Jalen’s assistant, Graham must have known about it well.
“Well… I indeed have no idea about it.” Even if Graham knew about it, he would never tell them, unless
he was not afraid of being fired by Jalen.
Jalen was still angry. If Graham dared to speak nonsense in public, he would be seriously
punished. Graham could easily expect a terrible result.
“Mr. Reilly, just tell us about it!”
“Yes, tell us the truth…”
“It seems that you are all free now, so you may need more work, don’t you?”
Someone suddenly spoke seriously from behind, and it became quiet in the resting room.
Graham turned around and saw Jalen standing at the door. He greeted Jalen nervously, “Mr. Halton.”
Jalen ignored him and nced at the crowd in the resting room. “I recruited you here to work rather
than gossip!”
“I’m sorry, Mr. Halton…” everyone whispered, not daring to look into Jalen’s eyes.
“This month’s bonus is off for all of you. If it happened again, you would be fired directly.” Jalen put on a
poker face and skipped over everyone. Then he turned around to walk to his office. Graham hurriedly
followed him.
When they disappeared, the staff in the resting room came to their senses. Some got sweaty on their
foreheads, which was enough to prove how much pressure they were just under.
Although it was unlucky to lose a month’s bonus, it was still much better than losing the job in the
Halton Group. Everyone was relieved.
In the office, Graham looked at Jalen who was sitting on the office chair. Graham asked nervously, “Mr.
Halton, the Lory family seems to have made the public believe that you and Ms. Lory are about to get
married on purpose. Shall we…”
“Leave it alone,” Jalen replied.
“Then what about Ms. Lory…” Graham hesitated for a moment but still asked. After all, Alisha was still
locked up, and it should not be the case.
When Jalen, who was lost in dealing with files, heard the word “Alisha”, he finally could not calm down.
He seemed to be cruel for just a second and then turned to normal. “Let her go.”
“What?” Graham thought he had mistaken it.
“They all said that I was going to marry her. How can I continue to lock her up? Of course, I have to let
her go.” Alisha was the key role. Who would believe the rumor if she did not appear?
Graham found it hard to understand Jalen. From what Jalen said, it seemed that Jalen would indeed
marry Alisha soon.
Really?
Didn’t Mr. Halton like Ms. Gainsford?
Graham felt very confused, but he didn’t dare to ask more. “Mr. Nitzan just called and asked you to go
back home. It should be for the matter of marrying Ms. Lory.”
It was now breaking news, but Nitzan did note to me Jalen directly. Nitzan was already very
calm.
“Got it.”
