Chapter 9：His Sister-In-Law (1/2)
'Sigh. Look at this CEO. He tricked me, so I would appear at his company. On the record, it's the first time I came here.'
'Why didn't he use his tricky behavior to search for his wife and get the divorce he has been trying to get?'
Well, yes, that's him! Suddenly, he will call her out when he feels like doing an act in front of his friends, family, and now his employees. But Vince once said he hates chasing a woman. The reason he relies on his lawyers but still no progress.
Shaking her head, Hailey heaved another silent sigh and mumbled. 'Forgot his flash drive and left it at home? Why the heck didn't he bring his laptop where he saved his precious confidential data and his important presentation?'
'It seemed he wanted me to appear in the company to be seen by his employees, which I wasn't prepared for. At least I want to wear a short, sexy dress to have a grand entrance. I didn't wear any makeup either. I'm upset!' She pouted in secret.
Hailey keeps mumbling in silence. Heaving a sigh of disbelief, she gathered her thoughts in one place and focused on her act. She keeps her sweet smile plastered on her face upon meeting Vince in the middle of the lobby.
Today, his company has several guests waiting for their appointment time to see certain personnel for business-related visits.
And as of the moment, in front of them is the CEO, who barely giving them a chance to meet in person to talk about a business proposal or business consultation. But today, he came down and met a girl, whose assistant could do that.
Could it be this girl is the rumored mistress? What a lucky Monday for them to meet her today!
Meanwhile, ignoring the curious people lounging in his company lobby, Vince warmly meets Hailey in the middle.
”Hi! Thanks for bringing it over!” said Vince. His voice is loud enough to hear in the entire lobby.
What's more interesting in this scene, Vince shamelessly showed his affection to his mistress. He leans over to plant a kiss on her cheek. For the female employee who witnessed this, their heart sank and fretted that someone already won over their dream man. They once attempt to seduce the CEO and trying to catch his attention, but he doesn't care about women but work. But what is happening now? He doesn't mind having PDA!
Hailey didn't anticipate that this act would cause a heart attack threat. Suddenly, Vince kisses her on the cheek! That required 70 percent of her superpower not to slap him because her heart not only skipped one beat but countless beats!
Ugh. Why is he not sharing any of his plans? If she wasn't good at acting, her reaction would be awkward and poor.
Came back to her senses, Hailey stretched her hand and handed the flash drive to Vince. Now that she delivered her task, she wanted to leave the place sooner.
”Here's your flash drive.”
Vince takes it. He thanked her one more time. ”It's quite a relief. I'm sorry for troubling you like this when you have a class soon.”
'I'm glad you know! Can't you find another perfect time for your drama CEO Shen? Ugh.' Hailey mumbling in her head.
Gracefully shaking her head, she responded to Vince, ”Don't sweat it. It's the least I could do. Anyway, I have one hour before my class starts. I can catch up as long as I won't get trapped in the traffic for an hour.”
”Yeah, that was bad. The university is in the opposite direction from the penthouse toward my company.”
”Yeah. So I better leave now,” Hailey whispered.
