Chapter 64 – Twisted Fate of a Billionaire’s Daughter Undercover

It was not that Gordon didn’t want Raina to be known to others. Rather, he didn’t want her to be referred to as his girlfriend.

Nevertheless, as soon as Gordon took Raina by the wrist, Devin said, “Look, Gordon and his girlfriend.”

Gordon could sense Devin’s sarcasm in his words despite the fact that they were more than ten meters apart.

Many journalists raced over. When Gordon turned around to walk away, the elevator doors had already closed.

Raina glanced at Ashlyn and the corner of her lips raised covertly. However, she had a bewildered and terrified expression as she turned to face Gordon. “Gordon.”

Gordon scowled when he noticed that she was grabbing the hem of his shirt.

He extended his hand and yanked her hand away. Raina, however, instantly grabbed his wrist.

Reporters who happened to be there at the moment captured the event on camera.

“Which business do you represent?”

Gordon drew Raina behind him as he cast a chilly glance at the journalists in front of him.

What occurred tonight would go viral online. More than ten reporters were there and they hurled questions at Gordon and Raina one after the other.

“Is this woman your girlfriend, Mr. Jones?”

“Miss Ramos said this woman is your true love, Mr. Jones. But why didn’t you marry her back then?”

“Mr. Jones, since you divorced Miss Ramos and this woman is your real love, are you going to marry her?”

When Raina heard these inquiries, she unconsciously turned to look at Gordon.

Gordon, though, remained silent. He had a frigid look as he stood amid the reporters. He briefly glanced at the reporters in front of him before turning to face Ashlyn and Devin.

Ashlyn was wearing a smile as she looked at Gordon and Raina, but it didn’t reach her eyes.

When Ashlyn met Gordon’s gaze, she scoffed, turned to Devin, and said, “I’m going back.”

Devin raised his eyebrows and turned to face Gordon while feigning a grin. He then followed after Ashlyn.

Soon, he caught up to Ashlyn.

Ashlyn and Devin strolled side by side until they eventually disappeared from Gordon’s view. He became irritated, and his eyes filled with rage.

Gordon remained silent and just stared out into the horizon, and the reporters were afraid to press him. They followed his line of sight and discovered that he was staring at Ashlyn and Devin.

They looked at one another, thinking that what had transpired today would be breaking news.

“Are you gazing at Miss Ramos, Mr. Jones?” a bold reporter asked.

When Raina heard this, she frowned, reached out, and grabbed Gordon’s shirt. “I want to go back.”

Withdrawing his gaze, Gordon gave each reporter a chilly glare. “If you publish what happened today online, I’ll make sure that your companies go bankrupt.”

After that, Gordon turned around, pressed the elevator button, and walked in with Raina.

The harshness in Gordon’s eyes terrified the reporters as they stood there. Rather than following them, they took pictures.

These reporters didn’t realize they needed to follow the couple until the elevator doors were shut. However, the security guards came at this moment and began to drive them out.

Devin caught up with Ashlyn in a few steps. He turned to look at her sideways as he asked with a smile, “Are you feeling better now?”

His voice caused Ashlyn to turn and look at him. A smile took its place on her lips as she said, “Yes, I am.”

Actually, she wasn’t sad; she just couldn’t swallow her anger.

But Gordon’s conflicted gaze before she left made her feel great.

Gordon and she had been married for three years, but he had never looked her in the eye.

Every time she had a conflict with Denise and Arabella, Gordon would ask her to apologize without asking about what happened.

And every time he looked at her, his eyes were cold as ice. Just now, however, when he looked at her, his eyes filled with disbelief and anger.

Ashlyn actually felt happy as she thought of it.

She knew she had changed. In the past, she had put up with anything if Gordon was even a little nice to her. But now, she felt that she would be happy when he was unhappy.

She was no longer willing to submit to such treatment and insults. But it was possible that there could be love that caused all this hate.

Yet, she had to admit that the pleasure of revenge was great.

Ashlyn couldn’t help but laugh at this thought. She looked at Devin with a smile and said, “Thank you.”

If it weren’t for Devin, she wouldn’t have made such a scene tonight.

Ashlyn’s smile deepened Devin’s own smile.

They walked up to the car before Ashlyn asked, “Devin, would you mind driving me back?”

“With pleasure. But…” He paused before continuing, “Would you be interested in doing something bad with me?”

“What bad thing?”

Ashlyn looked at him with great interest. She never knew why she was always so interested in what Devin had to say.

Devin gave her a mysterious smile, took her hand, and said, “Come with me.”

Ashlyn didn’t refuse him and followed him instead.

Devin didn’t go far. He merely took a few steps before coming to a stop. He turned around and looked at her with a smile. “Do you know whose car this is?”

Ashlyn looked at the license plate and raised her eyebrows as she said, “Gordon’s.”

Gordon was probably obsessive-compulsive, which explained why he had chosen a number that was easy to remember. Ashlyn had seen his license plate so many times, she could tell it was his at one glance.

“Smart,” Devin said appreciatively.

He then pulled out a small military knife and handed it to her. “Will you?”

In high school, Ashlyn had also slashed the car tires of people who had annoyed her. She had felt great at the time but now, she felt it to be a little childish.

Ashlyn hadn’t done such a thing in many years, but she was a little tempted when she saw the knife in Devin’s hand.

“Too childish, isn’t it?” Devin said, smiling. He then stabbed the tire with the knife and handed it to her. “But it will make you feel great.”

Ashlyn took the knife and stabbed the tire on the other side.

Devin was right. It did make her feel great!

Thinking that one cut was not enough, Ashlyn attacked the tire with full force, stabbing it over and over again.

She then followed Devin back to the car, her heart pounding, before they drove away.

As they pulled away, Ashlyn smiled as she looked at the car in the rearview mirror.

Gordon deserved it!

Ding! The elevator doors opened. Gordon looked over to Raina, who was standing close by, and said, “You may leave now.”

He continued standing in the elevator after making that statement.

Raina looked at Gordon and asked, “Gordon, the hotel is surrounded by reporters. I think you should come in and have a seat.”

“No, I’m good. Feel free to go.”

Gordon stretched out and hit the open button as the elevator doors were about to shut.

Once again, Raina caught a glimpse of his icy face. She was at a loss for words, and she walked hesitantly out of the elevator.

The elevator doors started to shut as soon as she stepped out.

Raina whirled around to see the doors as they closed behind her. Gordon was lost in thought, and he didn’t look over at her once.
