My Fair Stunner novel (Faye and Colin)
Chapter 216 Treating Him Well

Chapter 216 Treating Him Well

It had taken only a split second for the look on Colin's face to change from sullen to happy.

When Robert saw this, the corners of his mouth uncontrollably twitched.

Had Faye managed to coax him so quickly?

Looking at the chat box on the phone, Colin typed with a smile, asking, "Is the coffee good?"

Faye replied, "I'll take one cup back to you later."

Colin raised his eyebrows slightly, and his pretty eyes were full of smiles.

After a few minutes of silence, Colin looked up at Robert and said, "Robert."

Robert forced a smile and replied, "Yes?"

Colin rubbed his chin with his knuckled fingers and asked, "Do you think she likes me now?"

Robert did not think so, but he could only reply, "I've long noticed it, and I think she likes you very much."

Colin grinned, "Really?"

Robert firmly confirmed, "Really!"

In the coffee shop, Hank was sitting opposite Faye while holding a cup of coffee with both hands. After failing to cotton up with her, he took a deep breath and asked, "How is everything going on between you and Colin?"

Faye smiled lightly, "Which aspect?"

Hearing his, Hank was at a loss for words.

Seeing him keep silent, Faye stirred the coffee with a spoon and took the initiative to say, "He is too clingy sometimes. Everything else is fine."

Hearing this, Hank suddenly tightened his grip on the coffee cup.

Looking at his straight face, Faye took a sip of the coffee and smiled, "Hank, are you sure you have nothing to talk about with me?"

Hank said, "It's not a big deal."

Both Faye and Hank were smart people.

Seeing her unmoved after he had shown his care for her as a family member, he was afraid he would overreach himself if things went on like this, so he didn't dare to pretend any longer but admitted that he had asked her out to have coffee because he had something to inquire about.

Faye kept silent, so he continued, "Do you know Andrew Baldwin?"

Faye smiled, "Yes."

Hank asked, "Do you know he's in trouble?"

Faye nodded, "I heard he was fired when I had lunch just now."

Hank's face became gloomy when he said, "He was indeed fired, but now, he is missing."

Faye asked, "Didn't his family call the police?"

Hank had asked Faye today to inquire about where Andrew was locked up.

But she had always looked very calm as if she didn't know anything about him.

Hank paused for a while and then looked at her with a stern face, saying, "Faye, we are family, so I won't beat around the bush. Andrew is a spy my grandfather has planted at Farrell Media, but he disappeared for no reason. My grandfather wants to know what happened to him."

Faye took a sip of coffee and said, "When a former employee is missing, Farrell Media should cooperate with the police. I'm afraid there is nothing else I can do to help."

Hank said, "Actually, I suspect it's Colin..."

Before he could finish speaking, Faye interrupted, "Hank, Colin is a law-abiding businessman. What's more, Andrew is his grandfather's man in Farrell Media. I don't believe he would have done such a stupid thing."

Hank fell silent.

He didn't get any useful information from her when she finished her coffee.

Soon, Faye ended the meeting with the excuse that she still had a lot of work to deal with.

After leaving the private room, she walked to the cashier and took out her credit card from her purse. Seeing this, Hank stepped up to remind her, saying, "I have already paid the bill."

Faye looked at him with a smile and said, "I want to buy Colin a cup of coffee."

Hank was speechless.

Ten minutes later, Hank walked over to a Bentley on the side of the road with a gloomy face and got inside.

Colin looked at him with a pair of binoculars in the building of Farrell Media and showed a faint sneer.

When he put away the binoculars, the office door was knocked on from the outside.

Colin loosened his tie with his fingers silently when walking outward, partially revealing his collarbones.

After arriving at the door, he flirtatiously and lazily put one hand on the jamb and opened the door with the other, and then he deliberately lowered his voice and said, "Honey..." Before he could finish his words, he saw Robert holding a cup of coffee with a horrified face outside.

Robert shivered and said, "Hi, Mr. Farrell."

The tenderness in Colin's eyes immediately disappeared before he said, "Robert, it's you."

Robert said helplessly, "This is the coffee Ms. Nash bought for you."

Colin glanced down at the coffee, took it over, and said, "Where's she?"

Robert replied, "I heard that she went to the publicity department."

Colin asked coldly, "Why did she go there?"

Feeling the pressure from Colin's gaze, Robert swallowed hard and said, "To discuss the public welfare project."

Hearing this, Colin took a sip of the coffee silently and said, "The company has attached great importance to that project, and even the head office is very optimistic about it."

Robert instantly understood his hint and said, "I think you should be involved in such an important project."

Colin asked, "Is it proper?"

Robert replied, "Yes! What's more, if you do so, others will know more about your hands-on style of management."

After he finished speaking, he saw Colin show an inscrutable smile, so he broke out in a cold sweat.

When he was reflecting on whether he had said anything wrong, Colin patted him on the shoulder and said, "Robert, you are favorite my employee at Farrell Media. I think you're very promising." Robert fell silent without believing his words at all.

When Colin and Robert arrived, the manager of the publicity department was banging on the table while saying, "I have endured a lot in the previous public welfare projects. This time, you must give the publicity department a chance to show up. Isn't it just giving a lecture to children? Many employees in my department have graduate degrees! Don't you think we can handle such a simple task? Ms. Nash, you want to contribute to our company's bright future, and so does the publicity department!"

The manager of the publicity department was Bonnie Ford who had been in office for less than half a year and was said to be the sister-in-law of an executive at the headquarters.

Because she had a backer, she had been very aggressive and headstrong at Farrell Media for the past half a year.

Faye hadn't had dealings with her before, and she didn't take the rumors seriously.

But after meeting her today, she thought Bonnie was even worse than in the rumors.

After clamoring for her request, Bonnie thought she had overpowered Faye and the manager of the project department, so she leaned on the conference table with her arms folded over her chest and said, "Ms. Nash, Ms. Ronney, what do you think about my proposal??"

Ms. Ronney despised Bonnie because she said with a sneer in her eyes, "Ms. Ford, are you planning to do it in person?"

Bonnie was not annoyed after her thought was seen through but said, "I've joined the company for half a year, and it's almost the end of the year now. I need a chance to show Mr. Farrell my ability." Ms. Ronney sneered and turned to look at Faye.

Faye spun a pen between her fingers with a blank face and said, "Okay, I agree."
