"Wyatt, this ... this isn't quite possible, right? Last night, there were 30 thousand comments below. Almost all of them were negative. If we investigate one by one..."
"Just do it. Why are you talking so much nonsense?"
Wyatt sat in front of the computer screen and was about to light a cigarette when he suddenly remembered something.
Riley didn't come to the company today, did she?
In the morning, after he mocked her, he left alone.
Could it be that Riley was unhappy?
It was really rare. Would Riley be unhappy? Ever since she was little, she had been like a toy doll with no temper. Wyatt had almost never seen her cry or flip out.
Wyatt admitted that what he had done last night when he lost control made him very upset.
After all, he didn't do it for Tiara for so many years. He had thought that if he could not wait for Tiara in this life, he would simply get into the coffin as a virgin.
But unexpectedly...
He was in a bad mood when he saw something red on the sheets early in the morning.
Not only was it bad, but it was also unexpected.
He thought that Riley had slept with Calvin long ago.
Unexpectedly, it was actually her first time...
"Where is Ms. Hayton?"
Wyatt swallowed and asked Hamza.
"Ms. Hayton didn't come today. She took her marriage leave."
"Marriage leave? I'm right here. Where is she going alone?"
Wyatt was not the one who felt embarrassed. When Hamza said it, he also felt very awkward.
It was as if the person who married Riley was not Wyatt.
Wyatt got up and went to Riley's office next door.
Riley's room was empty. There was no computer or mouse on the table, only an upside-down cherry blossom mug.
An indescribable anger rose in Wyatt's heart.
"Tell her that MT Project will be discussed next Tuesday. Tell her to come back and prepare the materials. She can ask for leave in the future."
Wyatt snorted and turned to leave.
"Ms. Hayton said that the information had been prepared. It is in the drawer under your desk."
Hamza looked embarrassed. "In addition, she can't come back now. She booked a ticket to England. She said that she was going on a honeymoon. She is already on the plane now."
Riley sat in the leisure area of a hotel, looking at the changing white clouds in the blue sky.
Her mind was blank, and she suddenly felt comfortable.
She couldn't remember the last time she had such a relaxing vacation.
When Wyatt skipped class and traveled with Tiara, she helped him finish his thesis and write notes.
When Wyatt celebrated Tiara's birthday, she stayed in the company all night to check the reports.
When Wyatt broke up with Tiara and got drunk, he fled abroad for half a year alone. It was she who endured the pressure of the company and solved all the problems to keep his right of inheritance.
Everyone said that Riley was an amazing woman, and she was the most scheming and bold.
In fact, Riley was not smart. When she was in high school, she was not good at science. She could not even understand calculus when she went to college. She had no background or help. Wyatt could easily finish his studies and get the projects. She had to spend ten times or even a hundred times more energy to catch up with him.
They seemed to have no fate to be with each other, but Riley persisted.
Riley laughed at herself and took a sip of the sparkling water beside her.
She saw that on the lawn not far away, there seemed to be a party.
Riley felt that there was a familiar figure over there. It was only when the person walked straight toward her that she widened her eyes in disbelief.
"Calvin?"
"Riley!"
The person who came was Riley's senior at the university, Calvin Goldsmith.
"It's been long. Why are you here?"
Calvin hadn't changed much. He was still so tall and handsome.
He had attended a lot of academic conferences abroad these years, and his temperament had become more refined and elegant.
Under the frameless glasses, his eyes were still gentle.
"I have an academic conference here. What about you, Riley?"
Calvin smiled, and his eyes fixed on the ring on Riley's left hand.
That smile instantly froze, and a touch of sadness and helplessness emerged in his eyes as well as bitter blessings.
"Congratulations. Why didn't you inform me?"
"Two days ago."
Riley was a little embarrassed. She guessed that Calvin was so busy that he definitely did not have time to watch the gossip.
"So, you and your husband are here for a honeymoon?"
Calvin said.
"I guess so. He is busy, so he went back first."
Riley didn't want to explain too much.
The more she said, the more awkward it was.
"Who said I went back?"
As he spoke, a tall figure directly approached from the side.
Riley only felt her waist tighten and was directly turned around by a powerful and strong arm.
When men declared their identities, most of the time, it was only related to pride and had nothing to do with gentleness.
At the very least, Wyatt was like this.
"Is there anything more important than my wife and our honeymoon?"
Wyatt casually sneered, giving Riley goosebumps all over her body.
Speaking of which, why was he here?
"Mr. Buckland, how have you been?"
Calvin's lips twitched slightly, and he extended his hand out of courtesy.
Before seeing Wyatt, Calvin had never thought that Riley would marry Wyatt.
After all, back then, Riley had met Calvin at the school doctor's office because she came there to get the medicine for Wyatt who had an allergy to pollen as he prepared roses for Tiara.
Faced with Calvin's greeting, Wyatt snorted and did not shake hands with him.
"Mr. Goldsmith, what about you? It's been so many years, but I haven't seen you cure your myopia. Can't you see the ring on her finger?"
Returning to the suite upstairs, Wyatt sat on the sofa with a darkened face.
Riley sat opposite him. He did not speak, and she also fell silent.
Ten minutes later, Wyatt could no longer hold on.
"Aren't you going to explain?"
Riley raised her eyebrows and looked up. "I promised you that I would take the medicine. You didn't especially come here to keep an eye on me, did you?"
Hearing this, Wyatt was so furious.
"Riley, aren't you going too far? You just got married, and you went to a foreign country to have a private meeting with your ex-boyfriend? If I go to Tiara immediately, what do you think?"
"I won't think about it."
Riley smiled, "The problem is you have to find Tiara first..."
"You!"
Wyatt felt as if he was forced to eat a fly. He couldn't swallow or spit it out, only feeling disgusted.
"Riley, you want to play this with me? OK. You don't have parents, so you can only embarrass the Buckland family!"
With a bang, Wyatt raised his hand and knocked over the ashtray on the table.
Seeing that Wyatt seemed to be really angry, Riley lowered her eyes and explained seriously, "Calvin and I just happened to run into each other."
"Change to a smarter excuse." Wyatt gritted his teeth.
"Then... I have cancer. I want to come over and ask Calvin if there is any advanced treatment technology abroad," Riley said.
