Chapter 636 - 14.32
"Alright, Reed, please bring that woman to my office tomorrow morning. I really need a hand right now."
"Alright, I’ll come tomorrow morning with her. I already briefed her about this, and she looked so happy since she could finally get the position as the main secretary, haha!" Reed chuckled, full of mirth.
But Clarke didn’t sound too excited. In fact, he was worried about this young female secretary in her early twenties. Something that could be a huge fight between him and Gaius.
He felt bad that he had to hide this from Gaius, but his wife’s jealousy was sometimes uncalled for. He always thought that Clarke had something with those young women.
So he wanted to brief his brother first, ensuring him that he wouldn’t spoil anything to Gaius. Clarke had no way to finish everything alone at this point.
"Uh... Reed, I need you to hide this, okay?"
"Huh? What hide? What do you mean, brother?"
"I want you to hide the identity of that secretary from Gaius. Because she’s too young and presumably beautiful too, right? My wife will get extremely jealous," Clarke told the truth about the situation. He had no secret for his brother, thinking that Reed was his last relative that he needed to keep safe.
Reed chuckled as he hung up the call and then stared at the wallpaper of his phone. It was the picture of him with the Gaist family, minus Clarke. He stared at the for a long time before asking himself, "Why am I putting this stupid picture as my wallpaper anyway?"
He didn’t know either, but the photo was really nice to look at. It gave him a sense of security.
Yeah, it was ridiculous for him that something like this gave him a sense of security. He was Reed Ville, the richest man in this city and probably in the country as well.
