Chapter 435 Reina's Self-Esteem Is Shattered

Reina's tears were on her face, but she laughed. Her eyes were full of ridicule and bitterness. "So whatif you didn't tell her?"

"You tell the company about what I told you before. At least a few hundred people in the company knowabout it now. It is not strange that my mom knows about it too.

"Anyway, you caused it."

Suddenly, Reina smiled wryly, "But I deserved it. It was my fault to know you. I can't get rid of you now."

Reina shook off Jaylon's hand, limped to the roadside, and took a taxi to leave.

Jaylon watched her leave. He did not chase after her. He called his people to investigate how Laceyfound out the thing between him and Reina.

The company that Reina was working at now was not big, but the gossip spread fast here.

Jaylon sent flowers and snacks to Reina's company every day lately. Occasionally, he would also sendsome expensive gifts. The gossip of Reina being pursued by a rich man spread throughout thecompany.

Everyone thought that the man who sent her things and took her to and from work was Vincent, whocame to the company early a few days ago to look for her. Some people even found out that Vincentwas the successor of a listed company in Boston.

Although the company could not compare to those international companies, it was still quite somethingat that time.

Reina's colleagues would occasionally ask Reina about the love history between her and Vincent.Reina clarified a few times but it didn't work. Later, she ignored them and focused on work.

In the morning, when Reina just returned to her desk, the girl who loved gossip the most in thecompany came over and asked mysteriously, "Reina, I heard that you have dated Mr. Webb before?"

"Someone in the company said that her classmate's classmate and you went to the same school. Shesaid that you were Mr. Webb's girlfriend at college. You are pretty and he's super handsome. Theothers are all envious of you. Is that true?"

It really exceeded Reina's expectations that those colleagues could be so good at gossiping. Shewanted to explain, but she heard someone call her name at the door.

"Is Reina here?"

Reina looked up and saw Vincent standing at the door of the office, talking to a male colleague whowas ready to go out.

The male colleague asked curiously, "Are you Mr. Webb? We have been talking about you and Reinarecently."

"Yes. Why are you talking about us?" Vincent was confused.

The male colleague smiled and patted Vincent on the shoulder. He did not answer Vincent's questionand said, "Reina's is there, just near the window."

Vincent looked where the man pointed and met Reina's eyes. Reina didn't have the time to look away.

He thanked the male colleague, then waved his hand at Reina, hinting that he was asking her to go outfor a while.

Reina's colleagues made meaningful cheers after that. No matter how ignorant Vincent was, heunderstood what these people meant now. Vincent was a little embarrassed. When Reina came over,the embarrassed expression on his face became more obvious, like a boy who had never been in love."Reina, what did you say to them? How could they think that we are dating?"

Reina had made it clear to Vincent a few days ago, and she did not expect that he would come to heragain.

She explained, "Jaylon has been sending me stuff lately. They thought those stuff are from you."

After Vincent heard this, the light in his eyes instantly dimmed. "Oh."

Reina didn't want to say that, but she didn't want Vincent to misunderstand.

Then she changed the topic quickly.

She looked around the office, trying to replace Jaylon.

However, the dozen or so people in the office were all looking over at her.

She had no clue at all.

Vincent said, "What you asked me to do is done. I'm here to give the thing to you."

"It's done?" Reina was excited for a moment, but she quickly calmed down. "Didn't I ask you to mail itto me? Why are you here again?"

"You know why."

Reina was silent for a moment, then said in a cold and distant voice, "Mr.

Webb, Jaylon and I are already dating each other. You..."

"You are lying." Vincent did not hesitate to expose Reina's lie. His face became serious. "Reina, tell mehonestly, is he pestering you? You wanted the fake ID card because of him, right?"

"I asked someone to investigate him. He is the son of the CEO of Mimo Group. When he was young,he was a gambler in Las Vegas. He is not a

right man."

"If he is pestering you, I can call the police for you."

Reina interrupted Vincent. "So what? He worked very hard and treated his

family very well..."

Vincent was stunned. "Reina..."

Hearing Vincent call her, Reina realized what she said.

She had actually spoken up for Jaylon just now?

Why?

Reina's thoughts suddenly became a mess and she explained, "What I wanted to say is the last timehe stopped our car on the road. You called

the police. Then you saw what happened."

"To him, our solution is meaningless. I asked you to help me with the ID card because I want to leave,so you don't have to worry about me." "When I left, he would have nothing to do with me. Don't provokehim. It'll

only harm yourself."

Reina said this for Vincent's good, but it made Vincent a little uncomfortable. "Do you think I can'thandle him?"

"What?"

"Nothing..." Vincent realized that he had said something wrong. He calmed

down and did not continue what he wanted to say in the first place. "I'll be

leaving now. I'll mail you the ID card when I get back."

"OK."

Vincent was about to leave when a middle-aged woman dressed up with

jewels walked in.

The woman threw her expensive purse on the table and asked loudly, "Is

Reina here? Tell her to come out!"

She was intimidating and no one in the office dared to speak.

Reina said, "Why are you looking for me?"

The woman turned her head and looked Reina up and down.

Reina was beautiful. Her skin was fair and smooth. She had red lips and

dark hair. She looked very pure. The solitude in her eyes made her

glamorous.

"Are you Reina?" The woman smiled wryly, full of hatred and viciousness. "Just as I expected, you looklike a slut just like your mother!"

The woman swore at Reina after she came in, and the people in the office

were all somewhat unhappy.

Vincent was the first to speak up. "Madam, Reina doesn't seem to know

you. Isn't it rude for you to swear at her?"

"Why can't I swear at a mistress's daughter? Reina, where is your mom?"

The woman's face quickly darkened.

"Your mom tricked thousands of dollars from my husband. Where is she

now?"

The woman smelled the scent of another woman on her husband this

morning. Her husband was poor and had no ability. He had always been

afraid of her. She easily found out that her husband cheated on her with a woman named Lacey.

Her husband had given Lacey thousands of dollars. She was rich, but she had to get the money backfor her dignity.

She went to Lacey's home to look for Lacey this morning, but Lacey knew she was coming and ranaway.

When the woman went over, she didn't see Lacey.

After searching many places, she learned from her husband that Lacey's

daughter was working there, so she immediately rushed over, trying to get the whereabouts of Laceyfrom Reina.

Reina just saw Lacey taking money from a man in the morning. She thought

about it and understood everything now.

Seeing that Reina kept silent, Vincent asked, "Reina, is that said true? Did your mom really..."

Vincent did not continue, but Reina understood what he meant.

The gazes from the others around her seemed to become sharp in an instant, shattering the self-esteem that she carefully protected into pieces.
