CHAPTER 95: CHAPTER 58: YOU ARE NOT ALLOWED TO GET CLOSE TO SKYLER JONES

Perhaps sensing Rebecca Quentin’s mood, Skyler Jones didn’t ask any more questions.

No one expected that just as the two of them walked through the corridor and turned the corner, they would come face-to-face with two other people.

The moment Rebecca Quentin looked up, her face almost paled. It truly is a big world, yet enemies always seem to cross paths...

It turned out that Howard Geoffrey was also here discussing business, with a man who was clearly an executive talking animatedly in his ear.

Howard Geoffrey was wearing a custom-tailored ink-black suit, looking sharp and distinguished.

Skyler Jones greeted him first. "Mr. Geoffrey, what a coincidence."

Howard Geoffrey’s gaze was now on Rebecca Quentin, who stood behind Skyler Jones. His eyes darkened for a moment, but he quickly recovered and exchanged pleasantries with Skyler Jones. "Yes, Mr. Jones. I thought you had already left T City; I was just thinking of inviting you for a couple of drinks."

The executive standing next to Howard Geoffrey suddenly praised, "Mr. Jones, is this your new secretary? She’s very pretty!"

Skyler Jones smiled faintly. "You could say that!" He turned to Rebecca Quentin and said, "Come, Becca, let me introduce you. These two are Mr. Geoffrey, president of the "Skytop" Group, and Mr. Lin, the head of Starlight Decoration Company."

Rebecca Quentin smiled. "My name is Rebecca Quentin. It’s a pleasure to meet you both."

Mr. Lin stepped forward to shake hands with Rebecca Quentin and asked half-jokingly, "Miss Quentin, do you have a boyfriend?"

Rebecca Quentin withdrew her hand with a smile. "I’ve been married."

Mr. Lin immediately lost interest and stepped back.

Skyler Jones remarked, "My secretary may be pretty, but she can’t compare to Mr. Geoffrey’s fiancée. I hear she’s famously beautiful."

Howard Geoffrey laughed nonchalantly. "Alright, Mr. Jones, Mr. Lin and I still have some business to discuss. We can discuss our cooperation via video conference another day."

"Alright."

A moment later, Howard Geoffrey brushed past Rebecca Quentin.

For some reason, even though their encounter was as uneventful as one between strangers, she felt a sudden chill the moment he brushed past her.

While Rebecca Quentin was still slightly stunned, Skyler Jones started walking again. "Let’s go!"

Rebecca Quentin quickly caught up with him.

As it turned out, the part-time secretarial job Skyler Jones had given her wasn’t difficult. However, listening to men discuss business was indeed boring. Despite this, Rebecca Quentin showed no impatience, always standing by with a serene smile, ready for Skyler Jones’s instructions.

Skyler Jones was very considerate. Seeing that Rebecca Quentin had been standing for a long time, he made an excuse for her to step out and call a waiter, allowing her to take a brief break.

Upon leaving the private room, Rebecca Quentin let out a huge sigh of relief. Actually, I quite like business, she thought, but I just don’t have any talent for it. In the past, whenever I heard Howard Geoffrey discussing business on the phone at home, I’d often ask him serious questions. But he would always give me a couple of brief, incomprehensible replies, which eventually made me lose all interest in it.

Seizing the opportunity, Rebecca Quentin headed to the restroom.

But who would have thought? Just as she entered a stall and was about to lock the door, a tall, imposing figure swiftly squeezed in behind her. In an instant, he locked the door and roughly pinned her against it.

Her body trapped, Rebecca Quentin was still trying to understand what was happening when her gaze met a pair of sharp, black eyes—eyes that could only belong to Howard Geoffrey.

As if unable to believe he was really there, Rebecca Quentin remained pressed against the door, her brow tightly furrowed.

Howard Geoffrey’s hawk-like black eyes stared intently at her for several seconds before his thin lips parted, his voice cold. "Who allowed you to get so close to Skyler Jones?"

Rebecca Quentin remained silent, standing perfectly still.

Howard Geoffrey’s eyes darkened further; he was clearly displeased with her current attitude.

He spoke again. "Not going to say anything?"

Rebecca Quentin finally retorted, "I don’t recall us being very familiar, Mr. Geoffrey."

Howard Geoffrey’s face gradually turned ashen.

Rebecca Quentin pushed him away, then unlocked the stall door. She stated calmly, "Mr. Geoffrey, you seem to be mistaken. This is the ladies’ restroom. If you can’t find the men’s, I don’t mind showing you the way. However, your continued presence here will inconvenience other ladies, so please leave now."

Howard Geoffrey smirked, watching her with an air of unhurried amusement.

Rebecca Quentin seemed to have a sudden realization. She nodded and said with a serene smile, "Oh, I must have been mistaken. It seems Mr. Geoffrey has a penchant for entering ladies’ restrooms... In that case, I’ll leave and not disturb you."

Just as Rebecca Quentin turned to leave, Howard Geoffrey seemed to make a sudden decision. "Since you say we’re not familiar..." He reached out, slammed the door shut again, then spun her around forcefully and bent down, his lips claiming hers.
