Before Vivian could answer, Rain could not help but make fun of Gordan, "Aren''t you very capable?


    Can''t you find out yourself?"


    Gordan frowned as he was displeased that Rain stood up for Vivian, even if it was because she


    empathized with her as a woman.


    Nevertheless, Rain worked for Luke, so he could not say anything. All he could do was stare at Vivian''s


    back.


    After a few seconds, Vivian took a deep breath and replied, "It''s a Nordic brand, Maslikon. The most


    expensive one."


    "Okay," Gordan responded simply but frowned.


    Vivian seemed to have lost a lot of weight. As he continued to stare at her, he thought that her


    appearance had changed after this major event.


    Vivian put on a sad smile. She did not dare to turn around and look at Gordan again, so she pulled on


    the door handle and walked out of the reception room.


    Cheryl was walking toward the room when she saw Vivian and Rain. She stepped to the side of the


    corridor and greeted them respectfully, "Are you leaving?"


    "Yes, please clean up the cups in the reception room," Rain said.


    "Okay." Cheryl lowered her gaze. She waited for the two to leave, walked into the pantry, and picked up


    the tray before she reentered the reception room.


    She was stunned when she saw Gordan there.


    ‘Does Gordan know the woman from just now? What''s the rtionship between the two?''


    Cheryl could not help but imagine.


    ''The two of them don''t look like they''re rted, so... could it be a working rtionship? After all, a


    handsome man like Gordan would never be interested in that ugly woman.''


    "What are you doing?" Gale frowned when he saw Cheryl standing in the doorway.


    "Mr. Gale, I''m here to clean up the room," Cheryl said as she nced at the coffee cups on the coffee


    table.


    The coffee was not great, so Gale nodded and said, "Go for it."


    "Yes." Cheryl put all the coffee cups on the tray. Her heartbeat could not help speeding up when she


    saw Gordan frowning. She thought that he looked amazing even when he frowned and that she would


    be proud to bring him out as her boyfriend!


    "Mr. Norton, do you want coffee?" Cheryl asked shyly.


    Gordan''s mood was gloomy, and he firmly refused her, "No."


    "Okay." Cheryl was a little disappointed. Tina had made him coffee when he was in Luke''s office. She


    wanted to make him a cup of coffee herself, but unfortunately, the man in front of her did not seem to


    be in a good mood.


    She left with the tray.


    Gale picked up the transfer agreement that remained, flipped through it, and tsked. "This vi is


    expensive."


    "So what?" Gordan leaned against the sofa and looked at him.


    "This is a house that other people dream of, but you want absolutely nothing to do with it. You can


    handle the sales of the vi yourself, so why must you have Miss Vivian handle it herself?" Gale did not


    understand what was on their minds.


    The two of them did not want that house and treated it like it was a hot potato. Gordan wanted to throw


    it away immediately.


    It had been dealt with now, but Gale felt that Gordan was still not in a good mood.


    "That''s her vi, of course, she should be the one handling it." Gordan frowned, snorted coldly, and


    stood up.


    "Where are you going?" Gale stood up.


    "I''m heading to the CEO''s office. Do you want toe along?" Gordan wanted to talk to Luke.


    "Boss'' office? I''ll go with you. I have something to report to him." Gale walked out the door with Gordan.


    "How much did that woman pay you two to be her bodyguards and for Rain to speak for her?" Gordan


    was a little unhappy, so his voice was muffled. ''Why was I attacked by Rain?''


    "She didn''t pay us anything. The boss asked us to do it. As for Rain, maybe it''s because they''re both


    women, so she''s not happy with your behavior." Gale guessed. Even if he was a man, he felt Gordan


    should not have done that and was acting stupid.


    "How could Luke be like this? I don''t know what that woman did to him. He''s not taking my side at all."


    Gordan could not help but feel resentful.


    He hated women talking back to him. It bruised his ego. However, his supposedly gentlemanly


    demeanor did not allow him to hit women for no reason.


    "If you think about it, the boss is on your side." Gale frowned and spoke for Luke.


    Gordan rolled his eyes at him before he said, "You''re his subordinate. Of course, you would say such


    things."


    "If the boss isn''t on your side, he wouldn''t let you be in his office every day. He would be sure to kick


    you out if you were someone else, even if you sat without a word for a whole day. The boss didn''t do


    that no matter how much noise you created in his office. Isn''t he helping you? If it weren''t for you


    disturbing his work, Ms. Vivian probably wouldn''t have agreed to see you and the house would still be


    under your name," Gale said.


    Gordan frowned. ''It seems like he has a point.''


    Luke was helping him indirectly.


    After all, Vivian''s temperament did not allow her to trouble others because of her matters.


    N?velDrama.Org owns this text.


    As such, hanging around Luke''s office was a hundred times better than waiting at the gate of the


    community.


    Luke prepared a meal for him likely because he knew that Vivian would help with cooking and would


    eventually find out that he had been frequenting Luke''s office.


    Gordan was speechless when he thought of the steak he prepared the other day.


    Luke was the one that proposed for them to have steak...


    It seemed that his arrangement was clever and natural. Even he did not notice his true intentions for a


    while.


    Gale patted him on the shoulder seeing that Gordan did not say a word. "Now you realize that the boss


    has made the appropriate arrangements."


    After he said that, he knocked on the door of Luke''s office, got a response, opened the door, and


    walked in.


    "Boss, Rain and I havepleted the task you assigned us," Gale said.


    Luke nodded and looked at Gordan, who walked in from behind Gale. His expression was neither


    happy nor rxed, so Luke asked, "Things didn''t go how you wanted it to?"


    "No, the hot potato is gone." Gordan likened the house to a hot potato.


    Luke shook his head and did not continue talking.


    Gale closed the office door and went straight to it. "Boss, when our men were monitoring Matysh


    yesterday, they found several more people entering and leaving his guest room. It seems that he''ll be


    making a move soon enough."


    "How''s the investigation going?" Luke looked at Gordan. He did not only ask Ray and the others to


    investigate ckmail material on Matysh in Russia, but he also asked Gordan to help on the matter.


    After all, the two had fundamentally different investigation methods.


    "We''re getting somewhere. Give me another day. Maybe he''ll be deported before he can do anything,"


    Gordan said.


    "That fast?" Gale could not help but wonder.


    "Of course. I have my intelligencework. Once the information is verified, it can be handed over to


    the relevant departments. However, we may be against Marcos'' wishes if we deal with the matter as


    such," Gordan said.
