Chapter 81
It was a young man who was about the same height as Ray. He had on a backpack and was carrying a suitcase. He looked disillusioned and frustrated, which was unusual for a young man at his age.
Although he was unshaven and was still far away, I immediately remembered that he was Sabrinaâs boyfriend, Nathan.
I understood something when I saw the suitcase in his hand.
I waited quietly where I was and saw that after Nathan and Ray had talked for a while, he waved goodbye to Ray and left.
Ray also turned to walk inside, but he spotted me at the door and immediately ran toward me.
âGood morning, Taylor!â
âGood morning, Ray. Was that your friend?â
âHim? Heâs Nathan, a good friend of mine. I think Iâve mentioned him to you before. His girlfriend broke up. with him, and he lost his job, so he plans to stay in his hometown for a while. He came specially to say goodbye to me,â Ray said.
Sabrina and Nathan had broken up?
I hadnât expected them to break up so soon,
Besides, Nathan seemed to love her very much, so why had he given up so quickly?
âDid he tell you their reason for breaking up?â I couldnât help asking.
Ray sighed.
âHis girlfriend is in the planning team at Holmes Group. The interns there can only become permanent staff after at least one year, but somehow she managed to secure a permanent position very quickly. Now, sheâs been promoted to the position of assistant to the director. Sheâs gone up in the world, but my friend still hasnât changed. She feels that heâs too complacent, so she doesnât want him anymore.â
I had been too busy recently and hadnât been keeping up with the ongoings of Holmes Group.
I hadnât expected Sabrina to become a permanent staff member so soon. She had even been promoted. to assistant to the director. It seemed that she and Gordon were progressing rapidly.
I thought about how Gordonâs attitude toward me had cooled lately. He was always sneaking around, and
I barely saw him. I guessed that he was focusing on Sabrina now.
This was not a good sign.
I fell silent after listening to Ray.
Ray noticed how quiet I was being, so he asked me in confusion, âWhatâs wrong, Taylor? Did I make you unhappy with what I said?â
Chapter 81
I recovered and shook my head.
âRay, since Sabrina doesnât like Nathan, why did she choose to be together with him in the first place?â
Ray was startled,
He obviously hadnât expected me to ask about that, so he said, âNathan might be playful, but his father still holds a certain status in their hometown. I think heâs an executive at some bureau or other, Sabrina may be accomplished, but she lost her father at a young age, and I heard that sheâs from an average family. Besides, Nathan was very persistent at the time, so they simply got together.â
It seemed that Sabrina had always been the kind of woman who had a clear goal. She was not as innocent as she pretended to be.
o you think that thereâs a possibility for them to get back together?â I asked again.
âDo
âNathanâs already planning to return to his hometown and take the exam to become a civil servant. I donât think itâs very likely unless Nathan stays here and makes something of himself,â Ray replied.
âIs Nathan a capable person?â
