Triple Blessings: Mr. Fu's Passionate Pursuit

Chapter 653: Chapter 649: Mr. Dunn and Nathan, Are Involved

Alexander was teased by Richelle and Nathan that day and left with a drooping tail.

Initially, Richelle thought that this matter would just end.

However, the next day, a mysterious rumor surfaced, saying there was something going on between Mr. Dunn and Nathan.

The rumor spread rapidly through the Lewis Group, from the break room to private group chats.

Then, the private group chats began to discuss some nasty things about the duo.

“I didn’t notice it before, but now I think about it, the way Mr. Dunn and Nathan looked at each other during meetings always seemed more intimate than other people, I don’t believe they’re not having an affair.”

“Yeah, do you remember when Mr. Dunn first came to Lewis Group? She knew nothing back then, but now she’s so capable in such a short time. If it wasn’t for Nathan’s guidance, I wouldn’t believe it.”

“Hold on! But from what I heard, Nathan and his wife were love at first sight, and they have a great relationship. It seems unlikely with Mr. Dunn, right?”

“The one above is so naive. What are men? They can love their wives deeply while still treating their mistresses gently. Having an affair with Mr. Dunn doesn’t stand in the way of him having a loving marriage.”

“Seems true. I once heard that Nathan is actually quite a playboy.”

“No need to hear rumors, remember the previous director in planning department? She and Nathan were a couple once, and she quit the job because he was messing around with other women.”

“Well, that doesn’t make sense. Roy’s conditions are far superior to Nathan’s. Of course, Nathan is also very handsome and outstanding, but compared to Roy, he’s a bit inferior, right? Mr. Dunn must have seen better picks, and she wouldn’t be interested in Nathan then.”

“You guys don’t understand. It’s Nathan’s ability that Mr. Dunn might be attracted to, not simply the person per se. With his guidance, she could secure her position as president in such a short time.”

Various sorts of rumors circulated in the group chats, but they all had the same undertone.

In summary, the rumors suggested that Richelle used Nathan to secure her position as president, and in return, Nathan blackmailed her into a special transaction where they could both get what they wanted.

The rumors were on instant blast in every group chat within the Lewis Group.

By the afternoon, someone had uploaded screenshots of those group chats, with the names redacted, to the Weibo platform.

“The new president of Lewis Group allegedly has a forbidden secret with her assistant!”

Instantly, the post landed on the top of the trending topics list.

Within the post, there were three photos of Richelle and Nathan together.

One photo caught them walking side by side out of the Lewis Group’s building, both looking at each other with smiles as they seemed to be chatting.

Another photo showed Nathan in the driver’s seat with Richelle in the passenger seat.

And the last photo had Richelle lowering her head while Nathan supported her arm.

At the time, Richelle, Roy, and Nathan were all busy and had no time to check the online gossip.

It was the public relations department of the Lewis Group that discovered the top search trend and immediately called Nathan.

Ordinarily, they should have called Richelle, the president, though.

But as Richelle was also an involved party and not too familiar with the head of PR, Mr. Zedd, it wasn’t appropriate for him to report and discuss the matter with her.

So Mr. Zedd decided to follow their usual procedure and called Nathan.

Upon hearing a single sentence, Nathan blurted out, “Shit!”

Then Mr. Zedd heard him say, “Dr. Dunn, our names have appeared in the top search trends; take a look now.”

Mr. Zedd paused for a moment, realizing that Nathan and Richelle were together.

Could this mean that the rumor was true?

“Nathan, are you with Richelle now?”

Nathan answered naturally, “Yes, I’ve brought some documents for Richelle to sign.”

But in reality, besides Nathan and Richelle, Roy was also in the room at that time.

Now, Roy and Richelle had already opened the webpage. Upon looking at the top search trend, they could see it was marked with a tiny “explosive” tail.

They clicked on the topic and saw the three photos, all appearing to be innocent. The photo of Nathan supporting Richelle was taken when Richelle sprained her ankle, and Nathan helped her get back into the car.

As for the screenshots, they were all groundless accusations and false charges.

Roy knew that everything was false, but he couldn’t help being furious.

Not because of Nathan and Richelle, but because of those who were fabricating stories and slandering them!

Nathan quickly reached a preliminary consensus with Mr. Zedd on the other end of the phone.

When he hung up, Nathan hurriedly explained to Roy, “Roy, these rumors are just trying to sow discord among us …”

Roy replied with a heavy expression, “As if I didn’t know that.”

Richelle and Nathan were two of the people he trusted the most; how could he be fooled by these baseless rumors?

Beyond that, it was clear that the person behind the rumors had ulterior motives and a very specific target.

“They’re not trying to sow discord, they’re trying to blow this up so that the old man will see it!”
