“It’s late, Mr. Smith. Am I bothering you?”
Mr. Smith smiled. The bar was quiet. There would be saxophone tunes playing every now and then. The people next
to him could hear him when he talked on the phone.
Robert looked at him with slight confusion. He picked up the glass of whisky and then put it down slowly.
Mr. Smith asked softly, “Does Ms. Jenner need anything?”
“Investigate someone for me,” said Cordelia. “Find out everything about her! I don’t want the official information on
the Internet… You get what I mean, right, Mr. Smith?”
“Sure, I’ll do it right away. I wonder who Ms. Jenner is talking about?”
“Michelle Carmichael from Sol Entertainment.”
Mr. Smith was stunned and looked at Robert with doubt.
He was bright and knew Cordelia well. She would not investigate someone for nothing.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtHe had heard of Michelle. She was considered an attractive lady from a decent family and was recently signed by
Sol Entertainment.
It seemed Cordelia was not investigating Michelle for Linda but for herself?
Robert’s expression changed. He knew the story, but his boss had told him not to leak it. He would not tell anyone,
no matter what.
However, he would make Cordelia misunderstand!
Robert was protective, so he waved his arms at Mr. Smith. He wanted him to explain to Cordelia that Michelle
definitely had nothing going on with Zephyr.
Mr. Smith frowned. He could not understand why he was dancing at all.
As they fell into silence, Cordelia realized something was up.
“Mr. Smith, do you have someone with you?”
“Err, Ms. Jenner…” Mr. Smith was an honest man, so he did not hide from her. “I happen to be free tonight, so I got
Robert to drink with me.”
“Oh, so he’s with you?”
“Yes.”
Robert leaned on the table while covering his face. He wanted to die. Mr. Smith was such an honest man!
Cordelia smiled. “Put it on speaker. Let me speak to him.”
Mr. Smith did as she said.
“Ms. Jenner…” Robert scratched his head and scratched hard on the table.
“You heard what I said to Mr. Smith?”
“I-I did!”
“So, you know about the person that I’m investigating?”
“Mm-hmm… I do.” Robert knew it was useless to deny it.
“Good.” She chuckled. Her voice was soft, but it was majestic. “If you dare to tell your boss, you know what the
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmconsequences will be!
“But… if you keep your mouth shut and work for me, I’ll reward you.
“Think about what you’re going to do!”
He was sweating, and his heart was pounding.
His heart seemed to be too weak to be with these two people.
He agreed instantly. The moment he hung up the phone, he told Mr. Smith. “I have Michelle’s information. I’ll send it
to you right away!”
…
Cordelia did not want to do anything to Michelle.
She just wanted to know who she was, to be prepared. That was why she was investigating her.
Linda had said something right. Even if Zephyr did not want anything to do with her, they could not guarantee that
Michelle thought the same.
Cordelia smirked when she got the document. She kept it carefully, got into the bed quietly, and fell asleep in
Zephyr’s arms.
Her days had been peaceful during this period.
