Chapter 547: Chapter 547

Rebecca Lowell couldn’t concentrate on work all day. Even when her colleagues joked with her, she seemed absent-minded.

Her mind was completely occupied with waiting for Heidi Leighton’s next move. Only Heidi could save her now.

Finally enduring until the end of the workday, Heidi and Rebecca arrived together at a private room in a nearby Western restaurant.

As soon as they sat down, Rebecca couldn’t wait to ask, "Heidi, you asked me to spread the word about Nina Sinclair working at the Sinclair Group last time, which I did. But what does this have to do with my situation?"

She was anxious, frantically saying, "The weekend is the day after tomorrow. If everyone finds out that what I said about being President Lancaster’s girlfriend was a misunderstanding, they’ll definitely laugh at me. I won’t be able to face anyone at Nia anymore."

Heidi gently comforted her, "Rebecca, don’t worry. You’re considered one of my people now, so of course, I’ll find a way to help you."

With Heidi’s reassurance, Rebecca gradually calmed down.

"Didn’t you tell me before that during Nina Sinclair’s time at the Sinclair Group, she was involved with a married manager there?"

"Yes, but then that manager himself came out and said it was a misunderstanding," Rebecca recalled. "Later, I secretly found out that he was attracted to Nina’s beauty and wanted her to yield to him. But since Nina wouldn’t comply, he deliberately spread the rumor, hoping to force her hand, and the matter eventually subsided."

Unexpectedly, Nina Sinclair had been a seductive vixen from the start.

Heidi’s smile gradually turned icy as she looked at Rebecca and said, "The people from the Sinclair Group know it was a misunderstanding, but who in Veridia knows whether it was a misunderstanding?"

"That person has already apologized. How could it not be..." Rebecca stopped mid-sentence.

She realized what Heidi wanted to do!

"You can use this to divert attention. Who will care about your thing with President Lancaster then?"

The gloom on Rebecca’s face vanished, and she immediately smiled.

It was almost mealtime, and Marcus Walsh was craning his neck, waiting for the delivery guy to bring his meal.

He had agreed with Sunny Hale to make him some extra meals. Unexpectedly, he started looking forward to it from then on. After having Sunny’s meals for a day, he found each meal delicious and different from the last.

Now, even his hospital stay didn’t feel unbearable. He even wanted to stay longer, just to have a few more of Sunny’s meals.

On the adjoining bed, Hugh Sutton glanced at Marcus with some curiosity and asked, "Hey Marcus, was the lady who brought you food the other day your girlfriend?"

Marcus snapped back to reality and shook his head, "No, it’s just..."

He thought for a moment that calling her a friend wouldn’t be accurate with Sunny, so he said, "We’re colleagues."

"Didn’t expect a colleague would be so kind to bring you food." Hugh said, his eyes glinting shrewdly, "Since there’s nothing between you..."

Hugh grinned lewdly and said, "Then give me her contact info. She looks quite pretty."

Marcus’s face turned dark with anger, and he gritted his teeth, "Get lost!"

These days, he had seen various women visiting Hugh and knew his personal life wasn’t clean. He didn’t expect Hugh to try reaching out to his side. How could he allow someone like Hugh to taint a good girl like Sunny?

Thinking of this, Marcus suddenly felt a bit surprised.

Hugh just asked him one question, but it felt like something was being taken away from him.
