Chapter 61: A Problem

Janessa not only had to coordinate with the Gu Group, but she also had to attend regular meetings
with Rayan.

Although their relationship was troublesome in the past, Janessa focused on working with Rayan to
ensure that their project with the Gu Group would be successful.

Before every meeting, Janessa would personally deliver documents to Rayan's office.

Janessa was appointed as the new group leader now.

Because of her new position, she didn't need to report her whereabouts to anyone.

Unfortunately for Janessa, this turned out to be a problem.

When Sally noticed that Janessa was frequently slipping out to deliver documents to Rayan’s office,
she couldn't help but feel suspicious of her.

The next time Janessa stood up to leave, Sally decided to trail her.

Sally watched as Janessa took an elevator to the top floor.

The top floor was where Rayan's office was located.

These past few days, Janessa has been spending more and more time inside Rayan's office.

"Janessa, I'd like to see how you plan to explain yourself this time!" Sally laughed to herself.

Finally, an opportunity arose for her to deal with Janessa.

Sally hid in a corner with her phone clutched in her hand.

She dialed a number in a hurry.



When she finished her phone call, she returned to her seat with a satisfied look on her face.

From the corner of Sally's eyes, she spotted Janessa's computer.The sly smile on her face grew wider.

"Janessa, let's set a little trap for you.I doubt you'll be able to weasel your way out of this one."

By that time, Janessa was still busy discussing the plans with Rayan inside his office.

All of a sudden, Janessa had the urge to sneeze.It wasn't like she was uncomfortable.

Why did she sneeze all of a sudden? After she rubbed her nose, Janessa went back to work.

Rayan and Janessa were married for three years, but Rayan never really took the time to observe her.

Ever since their wedding, they had never got the chance to get to know one another.

Ironically, their relationship had improved after their divorce.

"Mr.Rayan, what do you think about my proposal?"

Janessa poked Rayan with a pen in her hand.

He asked her to come so they could discuss the plan together.

At the moment, he wasn't listening to her and was only sitting there in a daze.

"Sounds good.You may modify the plan as you see fit.As he rubbed his nose, Rayan wondered why
Janessa had been able to put him in a daze.Since when was he so interested in Janessa? With a
confused look on her face, Janessa looked at the documents in her hand.

'What did Rayan mean by that?’ she thought to herself.



His vague instructions grated on her nerves, and she resisted the urge to throw the documents on his
face.It was true people tended to lose track of time when they were focused.They had spent more time
discussing the matter than they thought.

All of a sudden, the door to his office opened, and a beautiful woman entered the room.

"Rayan, you always forget to eat when you're at work."

Dressed in an ethereal summer dress, Gracie entered the room with two lunch boxes in her
hands.Gracie looked at Janessa in surprise.

"I'm sorry, Miss Janessa.I didn't know you were here.If I'd known, I would've brought lunch for you as
well."

Janessa knew that Gracie was hinting for her to leave.

The work for that morning was already completed, so there was no reason for her to stay in Rayan's
office.

"Thank you for your kindness, Miss Gracie.Mr.Rayan, you're lucky to have a woman by your side who
would prepare lunch for you like this."

After Janessa said these words, she took her bag and left Rayan's office.

Gracie bit her lip as she looked at her receding figure.

She had known Janessa for a long time, but that woman could still make her blood boil.

Gracie reigned in the resentful expression on her face before she turned to face Rayan.

She carefully cleared up the documents in front of Rayan and replaced them with the lunch she had
prepared.



After that, she began to chat casually with him.

"We have a new cook at home and I asked him to prepare these meals for you.Isn't it delicious? I
assumed you would forget to eat because you've been so busy, so I thought it would be nice to bring
your lunch over for you.Did I interrupt you?"

Rayan was silent the entire time she spoke, so Gracie tentatively looked up at him.

It was rare for her to see him like this.

Did he argue with Janessa today? It would be good news to Gracie if he did.

She suppressed the giddiness she felt inside and attempted to comfort Rayan as she said, "It's a
normal thing to have disagreements at work.Miss Janessa looks like she's been working hard for the
company.Please be patient with her.Your issues will be a thing of the past sooner or later."

"I don't want to talk about work right now.What dishes did you bring for me?"

"I brought all of your favorite dishes.There's braised pork ribs in brown sauce, stir-fried pork kidney, and
of course, shark's fin!"

Gracie took the dishes out of the container one by one in front of Rayan.The food looked so delicious
that his mouth watered.

"This looks good,"Rayan commented.

"Please help yourself.I tasted all of the dishes before I brought them over.They're not as good as the
ones the chef made in the old house, but they're still delicious."

Gracie had tasted the food prepared by the chef in the old house when she was a little girl, so she was
familiar with it.



Rayan was notorious for being a picky eater.

He refused to eat food prepared by ordinary people.

"This isn't bad,"

Rayan said as he tasted the food.

As Gracie mentioned, it wasn't as good as the meals prepared by his family's old chef, but this would
have to do.

He ate another bowl of rice as he talked with Gracie.

When he finished his meal, Rayan was ready to get to work.

Gracie slowly tidied up the lunchboxes as she tried to think of an excuse to tell Rayan so she could
stay in his office longer.

In the past, she had made many attempts to convince him to let her stay, but she always failed.

All of a sudden, she spotted a document on the ground.

When she picked it up, her eyes lit up with excitement.

Gracie had an idea.

Holding the document in her hand, she compared it to the other document on the table and organized
them.

She then pretended to be surprised by the document's contents.

"What's the matter? Is something wrong?" Rayan questioned.



He came over to Gracie's side and checked the document in her hand.

"Nothing's wrong, but there's something suspicious about this medicine.Although it wasn't mentioned
that people with allergies couldn't take it, there’s something wrong with the way you're using it.If those
people were misled and took the medicine by mistake, there could be serious consequences,"

Gracie explained in a serious tone.She pointed at a column in the paper.Rayan gave her idea some
serious thought.

He didn't have much knowledge of the usage of the medicine.

It was a matter he overlooked as he perfected his plan.

Now that Gracie had pointed it out, he thought that he should take a closer look at it.

"Thank you for pointing that out, Gracie.If you hadn't said anything, we could've made a serious
mistake."

After collecting the documents, Rayan immediately called for Janessa to discuss countermeasures.

When he finished the phone call, Rayan noticed that Gracie was still in his office.

"You can go home now.I have a lot of things to work on right now.If there's anything, in particular, you
want to eat, ask the cook to make it for you."

Gracie approached Rayan and asked, "Rayan...Could I stay and help you? You're not familiar with
medicine, and I'm a doctor.Maybe I could do something to help."
