Chapter 179 Do You Understand What I Mean?
Peyton was simply curious, so she casually asked. She didn’t expect to receive some information.
“What background could a cleaner have?”
“I heard that the janitor once saved Mr. Dalton’s life.”
Peyton laughed, “Since she saved Mr. Dalton, did Mr. Dalton make her a janitor?”
“She was alone and had no one to rely on. She had also gotten used to being a janitor, so she continued to work as one. However, she was only responsible for cleaning Mr. Dalton’s office. There wasn’t much work there to begin with. The job was quite easy.”
Peyton nodded. “I see.”
They chatted for a few more moments. Then Peyton left. She secretly made a mental note of the janitor.
The sky was getting dark. Peyton followed Brynn to the banquet.
Brynn was touching up her makeup in the car. She would occasionally raise an eyebrow and glance at Peyton. “Peyton, you’re still young. Ast long as you convince Mr. McKinney tonight, I will forgive you for what you did yesterday.” This content provided by N(o)velDrama].[Org.
“Was he tricky?”
“He was quite a challenge for others. But for a beautiful woman like you, it was different.”
Brynn finished applying her makeup. She leaned in towards Peyton. Catching a strong scent of perfume from her, Peyton felt a bit suffocated and involuntarily furrowed her brow.
“Peyton, it is easier for women to climb up than men. We are naturally endowed with advantages that men do not have. Do you understand what I mean?”
Brynn’s gaze was complicated. Peyton wasn’t foolish either. She had heard about the unspoken rules of the workplace.
“Understood.”
“Peyton, you were also a smart woman. You surely wouldn’t disappoint me, right?”
Peyton wanted to say, “You’re not even my family. Why does your opinion matter?”
But they were about to reach their destination soon. Peyton felt that less is more.
“Okay.”
“Peyton, then I’ll be waiting for your good news,” Brynn glanced at Peyton again, up and down.
The simple professional attire looked very attractive on Peyton. Brynn admired Peyton’s well– proportioned figure and the legs wrapped in flesh–colored stockings. Even though she was a woman herself, she felt a flutter in her heart.
-Brynn didn’t believe that Dillon could refuse Peyton!
In Gold Hotel, Peyton carried a briefcase and walked in high heels,
following behind Brynn. She seemed lost in thought.
Brynn thought she had never been to such a luxurious hotel before. So Brynn whispered, “Peyton, as long as you convince Mr. McKinney, I will make you a permanent employee. As long as you can stay with our company, you can stay in hotels like this anytime in the future.”
Peyton didn’t tell her that there was an exclusive suite on the top floor of the hotel, which Nolan had decorated according to her preferences. It had a swimming pool, a golden lounge, and an aerial garden. It was extremely luxurious.
When Nolan spoiled her, he was really good to her.
When she reminisced about the days she spent with Nolan in the past, she looked up and saw Helena walking with Nolan towards the exclusive elevator from the restaurant.
They glanced at each other, then quickly averted their gaze, as if they were strangers.
The bag slipped from Peyton’s hand and fell to the ground. She quickly crouched down to pick up the scattered documents.
Brynn was a bit dissatisfied. “Peyton, you couldn’t be so careless after meeting Mr. McKinney,” she said.
“I went to touch up my makeup.”
Peyton quickly went to the bathroom.
She thought she had already moved on from Nolan. Whenever she saw him doting on another woman, she couldn’t help but feel a chill in her heart.
Peyton thought that Nolan had taken Helena to her favorite place from the past. Meanwhile, Helena would be soaking in her bathtub, wearing her bathrobe, and sleeping with her man. Peyton’s fingers clenched the doorknob.
Peyton couldn’t completely erase years of deep affection in just two or three months.
“Dong dong dong.”
Brynn knocked on the bathroom door. “Peyton, what are you dawdling for? Hurry up. Don’t keep Mr. McKinney waiting.”
