Chapter 8:Acts On the Spot
'Bi…tch I own a car that costs double of this one. You might pass out if you know that.'
But of course, she isn't here to reveal herself but let them continue to believe she is a hoe, making her way to seduce someone like Vincent Shen.
The more they believe, the more the game is fun. Hailey's mouth pushed an amusing smirk from thinking about it. It was new to her, so she enjoyed the slanders and gossip thrown at her. But sometimes, she was too lazy to deal with those women, so she just ignored their disdain.
Leaving the underground parking lot, Hailey trotted her car after she joined the main road. It gladdens her the traffic flow is lighter today despite that it was rush hour; she made her way quickly.
But halfway, the traffic-jammed somewhere. She realized there was an accident a minute ago. Patrol cars and patrol riders now arrive on the scene to control the traffic and investigate the accident's cause. She was glad it only took less than ten minutes.
Patiently following the traffic's turtle flow, she turned on the radio and played her favorite band, ONE OK ROCK. She chose the song Wasted Nights, singing along with it.
"Must be something in the water
Feel like I can take the world
Cause I won't even feel the burn
Don't afraid to dive
Be afraid that you didn't try
These moments remind us why
We're here, we're so alive
Let's live like we're immortal
Live just for tonight…"
Thank goodness for this song. She could calm down. She used to travel long drives without traffic at all. That is why, since she started living in this city, she made a lot of adjustments, including how to drive slower and squeezes in the traffic jams every time she goes to university.
It frustrates her, but she has to bear the heavy traffic. Now she learns to apply to herself the saying...
"Patience is a virtue."
'But not this time…' Hailey helplessly watches the traffic in front of her. She glanced at her Channel wristwatch. It's been almost twenty minutes since she left the building. 'Come on!'
She's restless, of course. She has to drive back to catch up with her 10:15 class, which the university is in the opposite direction toward Vince's company. She must look for another route that has less traffic. Hailey mused.
Glancing at the watch once again, it was Vince who gave her this Diamond limited edition watch.
On one of Vince's trips to France, it surprises her to see the box on the coffee table.
Vince arrives in the penthouse before sunrise. But then he has to leave again for a Business conference in a neighboring province. He just came by to grab clean clothes and left the gift in his study room.
She's thinking it over, and his gesture touched her. But Vince should not be kind to her but keep a distance from her. Hailey mused.
Watching the traffic light shifted to green, Hailey stepped on the accelerator. She could now see the SHEN GROUP building's silhouette, but it will take her a while when she has to stop several avenues.
Pondering, while she was getting closer to the company, Hailey realized something…
"Why do I have to bring the USB personally if I could email the file?" she thought. But on the second thought, it is confidential.
'Vince is careful not to leak the project.' Hailey mused. 'And he trusted me, huh? Anyway, surely the file has a password. But he didn't know I'm better at hacking... hehehe… Well, never mind.'
Hailey steps on the gas and speeds up.
Finally, she got through the traffic jam. Hailey glanced at the digital clock on her car. It took her thirty-five minutes. Twitching the corner of her mouth, she murmured, 'I could drive it for ten minutes without traffic but fewer cars on the road. It's easy to overtake them.'
Reaching the company, she pulled over in front of the entrance door. Hailey dialed Vince's number before she got out of the car. Heaving a long sighed, she prepared herself. 'Okay, this is it.'
Hailey casually swayed her hips, walking toward the two Security Guards on the Entrance Door.
"I'm going in now," she told Vince over the phone. But the security guards halted her.
"Excuse me, Miss... May I know where are you going?" politely a tall and bulky Security Guard queried.
'In fairness, they aren't showing they are scary.'
Hailey pursed a smile. Instead of answering the man with a sweet voice, she kept talking to Vince. "Honey, your security personnel asked me where I am headed."
The two security guards shared a glance. In their mind playing the question, 'who is she talking with on the phone?'
Before any of them could speak up, the girl waved her hand to someone inside the building. They turned around to check who that person was just to find out it was their boss. In a flash, they straighten their stand, step aside to allow the girl to enter the building. Beads of sweat form on their forehead while musing, 'Did we treat her arrogantly? Will the boss question us as to why we didn't let her in immediately?' Fear lingering in their chest might they lose the job today.
Walking in, every person in that lounge turned to head toward Hailey's direction. Their eyes full of curiosity, scrutinizing her from the head down to her high-heeled shoes.
Wearing a plain white fitted blouse, tucking in her fitted jeans: Hailey's body shows all her curves. Her full chest, small waistline, tight ass are proudly displaying before their eyes. The clacking sound of her high heels on the floor added to her alluring beauty walking past them. But what shocked them most, the CEO is meeting her halfway.
Meeting Vince halfway, Hailey studied his expression. He was looking at her tenderly with a huge smile on his face. Instantly, she understood his game today. His purpose was to leave the Flash Drive at home to make her appear in his company and show to his employees I was the rumored mistress. I laugh out to myself.
'Bravo, CEO Shen. I want to smack you!'
If she's not smart enough, she would always lose poise with his sudden acts. 'I'm sulking at the moment. At least share your plans, so then I could dress up for my grand entrance!' Tearing a big sweet smile in front of Vince and everyone. These are Hailey's thoughts.
'Look at me? I just wore denim jeans, a plain blouse with my school ID hanging around my neck! At least, I'm wearing five inches high heels brown shoes.' Sigh.
'This guy is something…' She frowned in secret.
