Chapter 262 The three of them returned to Cecile‘s house afterward. Kayson had only taken a seat for a short while before he received Rowena‘s call.
He arrived at Rowena‘s house soon after.
He found Rowena‘s door vandalized by someone, and the stainless steel frame was jagged from the hitting
Kayson furrowed his eyebrows. “It‘s me, Ms. Todd. Please open the door.”
“You‘re here at last, Kayson!”
Rowena‘s shaky, fearful voice was heard coming from the door gap.
The door opened, and Kayson walked into the house to find Rowena holding a cooking knife for self– defense.
“Where‘s your brother?”
Rowena said fearfully, “My brother was summoned back to work, so he left early in the morning.” Kayson nodded. “What‘s going on with the vandalism on your door?”
Rowena‘s eyes reddened with tears at the mention of the door.“’I… I told a friend that I‘m planning to quit my current job yesterday night. As a result, my manager called me this morning saying that I will need to bear the consequences if I choose toquit my job.”Kayson furrowed his eyebrows. “What has your resignation got to do with your manager? What sort of company is so tyrannical that the employees are not allowed to quit?” Rowena said awkwardly, “H–He tried to ask me out previously, but I turned him down.” Kayson understood the situation and said, “Hence, he tried to make you stay so he could take the time to steal your heart slowly, right?”Rowena said with a bitter expression, “I think so…
However, I don‘t have feelings for him at all!“Most importantly… I didn‘t expect that the person I thought was my best friend would actually betray me. I told her after 12:00 last night, and my manager had already sent someone to threaten me this morning.” Kayson considered for a moment before asking, “Do you visit the pub frequently?”Rowena shook her head. “I don‘t! My brother will never let me go to pubs or bars! He said it‘s not safe there!” “How did you end up being targeted by Matthew then?” “Uh, I have no idea either…”Kayson pulled out his phone and asked for Matthew‘s number from Shyla before he dialed it.
“Who is it?” The call was picked up, and Matthew sounded impatient on his end, “It‘s me, Kayson.” Something dropped at Matthew‘s end, and a noise was heard.“M Mr. Yarde! I‘m sorry, I didn‘t realize that you‘re the caller!”Matthew was so scared that his knees buckled, and his voice sounded shaky.“Tell me, how did you get to know about Rowena?”Matthew was startled and begged for mercy. “I shall head over to apologize to Ms. Todd now, Mr. Yarde. I‘ll pay! I promise you that I‘ll ensure her satisfaction!”Kayson was rendered speechless. “That‘s not what I‘m asking. Answer my question!”
Matthew said anxiously, “A friend of mine told me. I shall ask him how he knows about Ms.Todd at once!”“Alright.”Kayson waited for about three minutes before Matthew‘s voice was heard again over the call.“Mr. Yarde, my friend told me that a woman named Felicia Quinlan gave him her information and photograph!”Kayson turned his head and asked Rowena, “Are you acquainted with Felicia Quinlan?”Rowena‘s expression changed drastically. “S–She‘s my best friend, the one I talked to yesterday night…”Her eyes were burning with fury. ‘So, I was targeted by Matthew because my so– called best friend betrayed me again?‘Kayson nodded and said to Matthew over the call, “That‘s all. Remember to come and apologize to Rowena.” After hanging up the call, he said, “I shall go to your company with you and see this Felicia.”Text © owned by NôvelDrama.Org.
