Chapter 32 A Devastating Criticism
Faye wore a black blazer and a skirt today. In addition to that, she was also wearing flesh-colored stockings and a pair of black high-heeled shoes that were shaped like wine glasses.
It was a decent and proper outfit, but when it was on her, it looked very tempting.
The person over the walkie-talkie said something to Faye and she frowned slightly, looking a little unhappy.
Colin had always been known as a playboy. The man standing opposite saw him looking at Faye, so followed his sight, he grinned and teased, "What a beauty, is she from Farrell Media?" Colin retracted his gaze and looked at the man, his eyes were cold. "Yeah."
The man did not notice Colin's indifference and continued, "Mr. Farrell, are you interested in that person?"
Colin's lips curled. "Are you, Mr. Newell?"
The man known as Mr. Newell smiled a bit wretchedly. "I'll get in line behind Mr. Farrell, I can take over when you get bored of her."
Colin smiled and reached out to pat the other's arm.
The man thought that Colin had acquiesced, so his smile got bigger, and he toasted Colin solicitously.
Today, Farrell Media was the host and Colin was the star of the party.
In addition to dealing hypocritically with bigwigs from all walks of life in the circle, he also had to accept toasts from the company's artists.
After a few rounds, Colin became impatient and gave Robert a look. Then, he lightly pulled the collar of his shirt and walked to the lounge on the second floor.
Colin had just reached the top of the stairs when he saw a young boy in the corner talking to Faye.
The boy looked shy and his face and ears were red. He held a glass of juice in his hand and handed it to Faye. When Faye took it, his eyes were full of joy that could not be hidden. The person talking to Faye was Sebastian, and he was thanking her for helping him last time.
"Ms. Nash, thank you very much. If it weren't for you, I'm afraid I wouldn't be able to continue working in the entertainment industry."
Faye smiled lightly. Coincidentally, she was thirsty after speaking all night. So, she took a sip of juice and said, "It's nothing, it's just a very small effort."
Although it was a very small effort for Faye, Sebastian was still grateful and he stared at Faye with admiration. "Ms. Nash, can I ask you out to dinner in private?"
Faye lifted her eyes to look at him. "Why?"
Sebastian felt ill at ease and did not know how to answer her for a while. "I...I just wanted to express my gratitude."
Faye, "I'll see if I have time."
Sebastian, "So you agree?"
Faye replied with a smile. "You are in your most sensitive period now. If you are photographed eating alone with a girl, it will not be good for you. When you are resting, bring your agent along to ask me out." Sebastian nodded happily. "Okay."
Robert asked for a cup of tea from the waiter to give Colin to sober up. When he walked to the stairs, he saw his boss's long and slender fingers tapping the handrail and he was glaring at a corner. Robert stepped forward, followed Colin's sight, and said in a low voice, "That boy's name is Sebastian Franklin, the company's trainee. He is currently the most popular and famous among the newcomers." Colin glanced at Robert sharply, "Do you know him?"
Robert, "Did you forget? Last time, Faye helped him get out of the embarrassment by hyping up the scandal between you and Miss Long."
Colin recalled and his eyes darkened. "Huh!"
Robert, "..."
Colin took the tea from Robert's hand and went upstairs. Robert followed behind him.
Colin had no contact with Faye for a while and Robert saw everything.
The relationship between the two seemed to have reverted to the way it was in the past.
Robert looked at the two equally calm people and could not help but lament, "The people in the city sure know how to live it up.”
After entering the lounge, Colin sat in front of the sofa drinking tea. Meanwhile, Robert stood at one side respectfully.
Halfway through the cup of tea, Colin took out a cigarette case from his pocket, put a cigarette between his thin lips, and lit it up. After that, he took a deep breath and blew the cigarette smoke into the air. "How about Hank recently?"
Robert, "I heard that your father is very mad that he suffered losses from the two projects he stole from you."
Colin let out a belittling smile. "And?"
Robert answered, "It's similar to your predictions. A few of the elders from the group were getting restless and they were all asking Old Mr. Farrell to go back to the headquarters to oversee things."
Colin held the cigarette in between his lips and smiled. “He is so old. They're not asking him to go back to oversee things.”
Robert chimed in, "Well, those old foxes are clearly trying to kick Hank out of the headquarters."
Colin leaned forward and his legs parted naturally. Then, he took the cigarette from his lips and flicked the ashes away. "If nothing is happening recently, create some scandals for me. Don't make the old man suspect me."
Robert nodded. "I'll do it tomorrow."
Colin, "Don't let Faye go next time if you need to find crisis management."
Robert was stunned when he heard that. Then, he agreed, "Alright."
Colin put out the cigarette in his hand in the ashtray and looked up at Robert. "Go down and see if Faye has finished talking to the boy. Tell her I need to see her."
With the lessons learned from the last phone call, Robert was very cautious this time. "What if she doesn't want to come here?"
Colin said in a deep voice, "Robert, Hank told the old man two days ago that he wanted you to help him, I think..."
Robert's back shot upright. "I think Ms. Nash will definitely want to come to meet you. It's not a big problem."
After Robert finished speaking, he turned around and walked straight out of the lounge without waiting for another word from Colin. Then, he headed straight downstairs. Luckily for Robert, Sebastian had already left by the time he got downstairs.
Robert walked up to Faye quickly and said, "Ma'am, Mr. Farrell said he wanted to see you."
Faye frowned when hearing it. Robert was worried that she would not be willing so he added urgently, "It's about work."
When she heard that it was about work, Faye felt more relax and nodded at Robert. After she thanked him, she walked upstairs.
Colin had his own lounge here and Faye knew where it was.
After she walked to the door of the lounge, Faye knocked on the door twice. After hearing the person inside saying "come in", she pushed the door open to enter in.
When Faye walked in, Colin was on the phone with someone.
When he saw Faye, Colin gestured to her with his hand.
Faye stood there motionlessly and Colin said to the person on the phone, "Dude, what did you just say? I can't hear you, did you say you have a way to make Faye hell-bent on following me?"
