Chapter 766 My Company Was Still There
Chapter 766 My Company Was Still There
Abbot acknowledged euphemistically.
Rebecca looked down at him, her head buzzing for a moment, and she didn't recover from the shock for a while.
After a while, Rebecca calmed down, but she had mixed feelings.
What should she say?
She had really mixed feelings.
She loved her company!
Whenever she thought of the company she sold, she felt heartbroken.
Seeing Rebecca not responding for a long time, Abbot's hand holding the ring box trembled and he said, "I'm sorry, Becca."
Rebecca took a deep breath and said, "Give me some time."
After finishing speaking, Rebecca turned and walked to pick up her coat, and then quickly left the room.
Seeing this, Faye quickly chased out.
A few minutes later, Faye caught up with Rebecca and dragged her into the car.
Rebecca sat in a daze on the passenger seat.
Faye said sincerely, "I'm sorry. I'm very sorry about it."
Faye didn't say some meaningless words.
She was wrong.
No matter how many reasons she had, she was still wrong.
Even a white lie was a lie.
Faye finished speaking, and Rebecca took a deep breath and said, "I didn't blame you. You also never thought that I would sell my company for Abbot."
The atmosphere inside the car was oppressive and awkward.
After a moment, Rebecca reached out and patted Faye's shoulder. She pretended to be relaxed and said, "Alright, don't think too much. Send me back and let me think about this thing." Rebecca added, "Drive me back to my mom's place."
Faye pursed her lips and said with a heavy heart, "Okay."
Then Faye turned the steering wheel and started driving.
About forty minutes later, the car arrived outside the Blacks' villa.
Rebecca pushed the door open and got out of the car, while Faye followed closely.
Rebecca turned around and chuckled lightly, "Go back. I'm fine."
Faye said, "I watched you enter the house."
Rebecca smiled, waved her hand at Faye, and turned to enter the house.
Rebecca turned around and just took two steps when her phone, which was in her pocket, suddenly rang.
She stopped and took out her phone from her pocket. It was Tanner's message on Instagram.
Tanner?
Rebecca clicked it in surprise and was stunned when she saw the content.
Tanner: [I heard that you had sold your company. It was eventually bought by Abbot. But you probably don't know that before Abbot, Faye had already asked her assistant to contact a company and planned to help you.]
After reading Tanner's message, Rebecca turned her head in shock.
Faye looked at Rebecca's red eyes and was slightly stunned. "What's wrong?"
Faye's words fell, and Rebecca rushed towards her, throwing herself into Faye's arms.
Faye didn't know why, so her heart sank and she thought something bad had happened. "What's going on?"
Rebecca was both excited and distressed. "My company is still there. It was bought by Abbot."
Faye responded, "Yes."
Rebecca was not as tall as Faye, so her forehead was against Faye's shoulder. "If Abbot didn't buy my company, you would also buy it, right?"
Faye froze and asked, "How do you know that?"
Rebecca turned from sad to happy, and she pinched Faye's waist fiercely.
Faye instinctively dodged, and Rebecca smiled with red eyes. She finally had an outburst after all the things that happened this evening.
"You guys hid a lot from me. You all treated me like a fool, right?"
"Why did every one of you know it but hide it from me? Were you afraid that I would mess it up?"
"Men are not so important, but confidantes are close like sisters. I don't mention Abbot. You, as my confidante, even deceived me."
Faye looked at her and smiled.
Rebecca pretended to be magnanimous without saying anything before. She was now the usual her.
After Rebecca finished complaining, Faye breathed a sigh of relief and explained, "The crisis of the Carter Group this time was very serious, mainly because the collateral branch of the Carters was undermining. The reason why we kept it from you was that we were afraid of you revealing our secret plan."
Rebecca said, "Why were you afraid that I might reveal the plan?"
Faye said truthfully, "Because you have poor acting."
Hearing that, Rebecca reached out and pinched Faye's arm hard again.
Faye didn't dodge and just let Rebecca pinch her.
Seeing that Faye didn't dodge, Rebecca deliberately snorted, "Don't think I'll forgive you so easily."
Faye smiled and said, "Someone just said she didn't blame me."
At Taste Elements.
Abbot leaned against the wall with a dispirited expression, tugging at his tie. Colin, who had just arrived, frowned. Then he held Abbot's shoulders and led him into the private box.
Colin had known Abbot for so long but had never seen him like this before. Abbot's brow furrowed. Then Colin asked, "Did you screw it up?"
Abbot said in a hoarse voice, "Yes."
Upon hearing this, Colin remained silent and didn't know what to say for a moment.
The room kept quiet for a few seconds, and Abbot took a deep lungful of smoke and looked at Colin. "Colin, what do you think I should do now?"
Colin answered, "It's tricky."
Abbot added, "Is it okay if I go to beg her?"
Colinti looked at Abbot and asked, "How?"
Abbot choked on the smoke, coughed fiercely, and then said hoarsely, "First I'll admit that it is my fault. I will promise her I will never do that again, and then... beg for her forgiveness." Abbot sounded quite sad.
Colin stared at him for a moment. Then he stepped forward, reached out to snatch the cigarette from Abbot's hand, and extinguished it. "Be a man."
Abbot said hoarsely. "What's the meaning of being a man now?"
Colin pondered for a moment and then took out his phone to check the weather forecast. He looked at Abbot and said, "It will rain tomorrow night."
Abbot looked confused and asked, "What?"
Colin explained, "It's a good chance for you to apologize."
Abbot and Colin looked at each other without saying a word.
Colin said, "I have given you an idea. Whether you can seize the opportunity depends on yourself."
When Faye returned home in the evening, Colin had already come back earlier.
The two looked at each other with frustration.
Colin stepped forward to help Faye take off her coat and asked, "Is Rebecca really angry?"
Faye bent down to change her shoes and said, "Take a guess."
Colin smiled, "It's not easy to guess. As the saying goes, don't guess a woman's thoughts."
"It's fake to say that she is not angry at all. But hearing that her company is still there, her anger has mostly dissipated."
Upon hearing Faye's words, Colin raised his eyebrows and said, "Could she be appeased so easily?"
Faye smiled and put away the shoes she had replaced. "Rebecca asked me to take a message for you. She asked you and me to help her trick Abbot once, otherwise, she would break up with us." Colin held Faye's coat in one hand and propped against the hall cabinet with the other hand, smirking, "The threat is quite frightening."
Then the phone placed on the hall cabinet shook twice before Faye could say something.
The two of them instinctively looked at each other, and Rebecca's message showed on the screen. [Didn't you just ask me how I knew you were helping me secretly? I can tell you. Tanner told me that.] Faye and Colin were both speechless.
After reading the message, Rebecca's second message was immediately sent. [After reading this message, remember to delete it. Don't let Colin see it. He must be jealous again.] Faye pursed her lips and looked at Colin.
Colin looked down at Faye and said, "I'm jealous. How do you deal with it?"
Faye smiled, reached out to pat him on the chest, and said, "A confident man is the most charming man. Suppress your jealousy. Mr. Farrell."
"What if I can't?"
Faye stepped up the stairs and turned around to say, "How can a man say he can't?"
