NEW LIFE : A SECOND CHANCE

Chapter 714 - The Rumour



Chapter 714 - The Rumour

Ramlah was rather disturbed by the picture she had seen, including the reaction of Sarah. It was obvious that she was heartbroken and have yet to recover from the break-up.

That picture though.

Was Sarah their CEO's ex-girlfriend?

And what did she mean, that it wasn't his choice?

They all knew about the new Lady Boss, but they didn't know how they came about. Everything was quiet until suddenly, she was someone important? They hardly saw her around before and now, she was their CEO's wife?

Was she his wife?

They didn't hear anything about him getting married, though it was obvious that their CEO was the father of the baby she was carrying. After all, why should he accompany her about?

Previously, she didn't really think anything much about it but now, with Sarah in the picture, could there be something more to this?

Ramlah thought long and hard about it, and decided to seek some thoughts from her friends. Thinking about it just gave her a headache … and her heart also ached. The sad look on Sarah's face haunted her.

Most of all, because Sarah didn't talk about it. If she really had been in a relationship with the CEO, wouldn't she naturally spread it about? Yet, she didn't. This proved just what a good person she was.

So why … suspicion grew in Rahmah's mind but she didn't dare voice it out.

It was that sentence, 'He didn't want to' that got to her.

That was why she sounded the situation to her friend during lunch break. They were in the cafeteria, as usual, when Rahmah casually brought it up. She wanted to hear what were her friend's thoughts.

"No, what, really?" one said, after hearing what Rahmah said. "Such a thing can happen? Poor girl."

Rahmah had laid out the scenario she had encountered, but she didn't name the people.

"What do you think happened?" Rahmah asked nervously.

"It's it obvious?" her friend answered, "A and B were in a loving relationship, or so A thought. B was actually cheating on A with C cuz A was just too rigid. Got C pregnant. Classic betrayal story."

Rahmah shook her head, disagreeing, "But B is a very upright guy. He didn't want to break up with A."

"Oh, come on," her friend scoffed, "All men think with their d*cks. You expect me to believe that such a guy exist?"

Rahmah bit her lower lip, "What if … say, hypothetically, of course, that guy is someone like .. oh, I don't know, Kyle?"

Her friend raised her eyebrow, "Kyle? As in, Kyle Smith? Our beloved CEO?"

"Yes, yes," Rahmah said earnestly, "Hypothetically, of course."

The friend nodded, but the cogs in her brain started turning and she couldn't help but think …

"Well, if it was the CEO," the friend began slowly, "Well, naturally, then C somehow trapped him. He wouldn't have cheated, but maybe he got taken advantage of when drunk? Being as upright as he is, he would take responsibility and break it off with A."

Rahmah nodded, "I was thinking the same thing."

"Yeah …" the friend said, her voice trailing away, deep in thought.

In a panic, Rahmah said, "Remember, we're only using our CEO as an example. It isn't him."

"Yes, yes, I get it," her friend replied with a smile, "Don't worry, I know."

Relieved, Rahmah smiled.

After lunch, though, a rumour started to spread about.

Unsubstantiated and juicy rumours are the best to talk about, after all.

It didn't take long before the story got bigger and bigger (as all rumours do) with one person blemishing it even more as time went by.

The only question on everyone's mind, however, was … who was A?

? Author only posts on w.e.b.n.o.v.e.l. ?

Sarah was content.

From the sounds of it, it was better than she had hoped.

When she had first planted the seed onto Rahmah, she would often look at her pictures of Kyle that she had in her bag. They were truly well made.

She had loads of them, and the ones in her bag were just a few of the thousands she had collected.

Of course, when one say 'collect' it was really 'made'.

Sarah's choice of majoring in public relations was very well thought out. The things she learned, she used to the utmost in making her relationship with Kyle a reality. One of the reasons why she was highly sought out as a PR officer was that she had multimedia skills.

This meant that she was knowledgeable about various types of media and knew how to manipulate them. Being the leader of PoK certainly was the start of her skills and she honed them further.

How to gather information. Spread them to achieve the optimum results. She knew how to use Photoshop, YouTube, Search Engine Optimization (SEO), and even a bit of coding.

She excelled in all of this.

How could she not, when those were the sort of skills she utilised to create her fantasy into reality? Or rather, the line between fantasy and reality became blurred for her (perhaps, it would be more accurate to say that the line no longer existed).

So now, she used those skills to achieve her innermost desire.

Once Sarah was sure the rumour had reached its peak, she started the second part of the plan. She came extra early to work, before anyone would come in. Taking out two pictures of her and Kyle, she looked at it lovingly before sticking them on her table. She then placed her keyboard over it, effectively hiding it.

Work began as normal.

When lunchtime came, Sarah's colleague came by, "Come on, lunchtime!"

"Okay," Sarah replied, typing away on her keyboard, "Let me pop by the ladies first."

Sarah stopped working and took her handbag. As she turned to leave, however, the swing of her bag hit her keyboard.

Yan's sharp eyes noted the corner of a photograph and she got curious.
