She's Too Busy Winning to Watch Him Cry novel Chapter 708

Lyra had no time to worry about anyone else and cut straight to the chase. "Quentin and York are both joining Jameson Tech. Why didn't you tell me about something this huge?"

Rowan frowned. "I had no idea about this. I'll look into it immediately."

With that, he dialed Colin Holt's number. He listened quietly for a moment before simply replying, "Alright. Got it."

Hanging up, he looked at Lyra and relayed the truth. "Colin said both resumes have been sitting on my desk. I just haven't had a chance to look at them yet."

"Sorry, I haven't been in the office much these past few days. Colin and HR handled the interviews; I was completely in the dark. I know they're Fairchild Holdings' top researchers, and I would never intentionally poach them. Why, are they jumping ship? Your company couldn't keep them?"

Suspicion laced Lyra's eyes. "Whether they jumped ship on their own, or you secretly sent headhunters after them, you should know best."

"It really wasn't me," Rowan insisted. "We've only officially signed Quentin so far. York hasn't given us an answer yet; it's not confirmed that he's joining."

York hadn't signed the contract yet!

Realizing York was still a free agent, Lyra instinctively shot up from the couch. Catching her own overreaction, she quickly steadied herself and forced a calm smile. "I see..."

"If there's nothing else, I'll be going now," she said casually. "We at Fairchild Holdings know how to let things go. I was just worried that if this got out, people might think Jameson Group was resorting to dirty tricks to poach talent, and it would cause unnecessary gossip for you."

Watching her desperately try to save face, Rowan chuckled. "'We at Fairchild, you at Jameson'... Tell me, whose side are you actually on?"

Lyra froze at his words, staring at him blankly, unsure of how to respond.

Rowan dropped his smile and suggested, "It's almost time to clock out. Are you going to wait for me? I can finish these documents, and we can go home together."
