Chapter 295 The Effortless Fruit
After reading the message from Lance, Faye folded her mobile phone and put it into her pocket. She subconsciously looked up at Colin and found that his eyes were on somewhere else; he didn't look at her phone at all.
Faye smiled lightly and said, "A friend."
Colin dropped his gaze and smiled mischievously, "A man?"
"Mm-hmm," answered she honestly.
Worried that Colin might get her wrong, Faye added, "Don't overthink."
Colin smiled more wildly and said, "I'm chill."
He then teased, "Baby, you are the one in panic."
Faye was rendered wordless.
Compared with the composure of Colin, Hank was not that calm.
He did suspect that Nylah worked for Blaine before, but Nylah never answered this question directly.
Even if he had asked her a few more times afterwards, she was always evasive and stumbled over her words.
Hank's face darkened.
Tiffany was the first to perceive something wrong with Hank. She leaned over and asked in a low voice, "What's wrong?"
Hank didn't hold out on her and handed her his mobile phone.
Tiffany took over the phone. With only a glance, she clenched her teeth and said in a voice that was only audible to them two, "Old geezer, I can't believe he planted a spy by your side."
Hank looked unfazed and stated, "It turns out that the person my father has been guarding against has never been Colin."
Tiffany was so angry by the sudden blow that she took several deep breaths to adjust her mood, uttering, "I told you, no one in the Farrells is reliable. You have been being too kind."
Hank uttered, "Mom, calm down. Don't embarrass ourselves in front of Colin."
Tiffany smiled sarcastically. "Do you think he has nothing to do with what's happened today?"
Hank was subdued.
At the end of the day, whether it was Colin and Faye, or Tiffany and Hank, no one went in to appease Blaine.
After the incident, both sides found a decent and hypocritical excuse to leave.
When they went out of the headquarters of Farrell Media, Tiffany and Hank left directly, while Colin and Faye walked slowly down the steps.
Colin chuckled and said, "It's very likely that Tiffany and Hank assume what's happened today is because of me."
Faye uttered, "Don't worry. Even if they doubt it, they won't take aim at you."
"Hmm?" Colin was curious.
Faye said lightly, "Don't you think it's stupid to confront two enemies at a time?"
Colin narrowed his eyes.
Faye compressed her lips and stated, "You can show yourself when both of them suffer great losses in the fight."
Colin joked, "Baby, did you just say I was stupid?"
Faye walked down the steps and said, "Each of us has our own rules to survive. You have a lot of connections, so you have the capital to be tough and fight them.
"I am different, my connections are not enough to support me to have a head-on conflict with them, so I can only be patient to make plans step by step before I finally make it."
No matter how stupid Colin was, he could get the undertone of Faye's words.
She had connections in the Farrells.
Colin asked, "I'm curious about whom you have a connection with?"
Faye turned to look Colin in the eye and uttered, "I can't tell you now."
Colin chuckled, saying, " It doesn't matter, as long as they don't betray you."
Faye replied firmly, "They won't."
While the two were talking, Robert parked the car in front of them.
Robert got out of the car and helped them open the rear door.
