Have I Told You Lately

Chapter 52: It’s Pleasant to Chat with You

Rachel was stunned again, when she reacted, the man had released her hand and gone elsewhere.

How could he discern her restraint?

“Rachel, what should we do next?” Miles’ voice sounded from behind.

Rachel glanced around. After a while, she smirked at him with her eyes lit up, “This’s an opportunity to

show me your capability.”

She looked down at her wristwatch, “I’ll wait for you here. 30 minutes. If you can get ten business cards

form those managers, I will give you extra points for the employment appraisal at the end of the year.”

Miles was taken aback and then sighed, “The? From those managers? Rachel, they are all

representatives from those famous companies in N City. Are you sure that you are not fooling me?”

Rachel smiled and glanced at Ogden in the distance, “If you can get the card from Mr. Ogden, then you

just need to get 3 cards from others.”

"..."

Not knowing whether being discouraged or encouraged, Miles looked at Rachel for a few seconds and

then gritted his teeth, nodding, “Okay, I’ll try. Wait and see.”

Rachel tried so hard to hold back her laughter and nodded, then patted his shoulder to show

encouragement.

As Miles was trying to complete the task, Rachel had several small talks with some acquaintances, and C0ntent © 2024 (N/ô)velDrama.Org.

then walked towards a corner alone to have a rest alone.

She felt quite boring and casually took out her phone to search Ogden Reed on Internet.

She had heard that Ogden Reed was the boss of a renowned Internet company and had a high

reputation in the profession.

She entered the name ‘Ogden Reed’ and all his information and photos popped out with a click.

“Thir… thirty years old?” Rachel felt a bit shocked when she saw his birthday.

His true age matched his appearance. But she thought that rich people were all good at keeping their

youths, therefore, although he looked like in his thirties, she had assumed that he was in his forties.

Looking at Ogden’s picture, Rachel subconsciously thought of Kenneth. Although she had no idea

about the difference of the fortunes them two possessed, she knew that Kenneth was thirty-two years

old. The two were all successful at a young age and were all promising.

She sighed frequently as she was searching for other information. In the end, she found that apart from

the public information on the baidubaike (something like Wikipedia), not a piece of his personal

information, even of his marital status, was shown on the Internet.

But it was reasonable. Generally speaking, people like Ogden, who were in a high position, would

either love their wives only, or have countless mistresses.

“Ah? You want to know about me?”

There suddenly came a man’s voice.

Rachel was startled and subconsciously raised her head. Then she bumped into Ogden’s jaw.

Rachel was more frustrated and quickly stood up, “Mr…. Mr. Ogden?”

When did he come? Wasn’t him toasting with others from distance just now?

Glimpsing at the page on her phone, Rachel felt embarrassed and hastily grasped her phone, as if she

was facing a formidable enemy.

Ogden was amused by her reaction. He sat down and patted the seat beside, “Sit down. It’s good if you

can sit here, for you can block their sights and I can have a rest.”

Rachel understood immediately. Presumably, he had been tired of socializing with those people.

However, the scene happened just now still made her feel embarrassed, so she hesitated for whether

to sit down or not.

“You said you’re from Vantage Inc.” Ignoring her embarrassment, Ogden took the initiative to start the

conversation.

Rachel suddenly had some enlightenment. How could she forget that this man was a big shot and let

go the opportunity to befriend him? Then it would be a waste for her coming all the way today.

Then she got over the embarrassment and sat down gracefully, nodding while smiling, “Yeah. I’m from

Vantage Inc. I guess you must know about Mr. Johnson, right?”

“We’ve met twice. But this was the first time that I went to N City.”

Rachel was a bit surprised.

Although N City was not a first-tier city, it was developed enough to be a second-tier city. She was a bit

surprised that he hadn’t gone to N City.

“Then how’s your first impression of this city?”

Ogden shook his head and smiled, exuding an aura of gentlemen, “I arrived at N City last night and

haven’t have an opportunity to have a look.”

Rachel was a bit curious, “What drove you to N City? For business negotiation?”

Since he hadn’t gone to this city, it could be deduced that his company has few businesses in N City.

Therefore, if she could promote the cooperation between Vantage Inc. and his company, she would get

double bonus in the end of the year.

Thinking of money, Rachel suddenly became ambitious.

Anyway, she was now extremely lack of money and would of course grasp every opportunity to earn

money.

Ogden nodded, “Yeah. I plan to invest some companies in N City. I’m now seeking cooperation with

companies in the city. Miss Lewis, would you like to recommend me some?”

That was the case!

Rachel was secretly delighted. But she was not in a hurry to recommend Vintage Inc.; instead, she

made full use of the work experience and eloquence she had gained from the workplace over the past

three years and analyzed the business in N City in a confident manner.

Of course, most of the analyses were about her opinions and most of which were simple and were not

professional enough. But what matters, she just wanted to show him her sincerity.

She talked a lot and even forgot the tasks she had assigned to Miles. When she finally finished the

speech, someone handed her a glass of juice.

He looked at her with a meaningful smile.

The air seemed to be frozen for a few seconds. Then Rachel finally realized what had happened and

suddenly blushed, hoping to dig a hole on the ground to hide herself, “Sorry, Mr. Ogden, I was showing

off in front of an expert. How embarrassing it is!”

It was like teaching a fish to swim! And that was really embarrassing!

“Have a sip to moisturize your throat.” Ogden still smiled and showed no disdain on his face. There was

even a trace of inexplicable light in his gaze, “I though Mr. Johnson must have carefully considered it

before designating you here. Miss Lewis, you’re so outstanding and have your own insights. I wonder if

I have the honor to invite you to work for me.”

What?

Rachel was a bit dumfounded.

Weren’t they talking about business cooperation? She talked a lot just now to pave the way to

introduce Vantage Inc. to him, but why did he suddenly shift his attention to her?

She took the cup and thanked him. Just as she was about to say something, Ogden stood up and drew

a napkin, and then took out a pen from his suit to write a line of numbers.

“My phone is kept by my secretary. This is my phone number and I think we can have a private meeting

next time. It’s pleasant to chat with you, Miss Lewis. But it’s not convenient to continue the talk today.

Sorry, I gotta go first.”

Rachel was a bit flattered and was still dumbfounded. She hastily stood up and nodded politely, “Okay,

let’s meet next time.”

Ogden gave her a meaning look and turned around and left slowly, leaving her a tall, slender and

distinguishably elegant back.

Rachel looked at his leaving back and admired him in heart. He was rich, famous, handsome and well-

built. More importantly, he was well-cultivated and composed. Presumably, no woman could resist such

kind of charm. If she wasn’t so into that bastard Kenneth and wasn’t pregnant, she would also fall for

him.

Oh, that’s not true. Who is into that bastard? She doesn’t love anyone now.

Rachel patted her cheeks to calm herself down.

“Rachel, why are you slapping yourself?” Miles suddenly walked over from behind and gave her a

strange look.
