8 Acts On the Spot

'Bi…tch, I own a car that costs triple that of this one. You might pass out if you know that.' 

But of course, she isn't here to reveal herself; 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 pursed an amusing smirk from thinking about it. It was new to her, so she enjoyed the slander and gossip. But sometimes she was too lazy to deal with those women, so she just ignored their disdain. 

Hailey trotted to her car, speeding it up after leaving the underground parking lot, and joined the main road. It gladdens her that the traffic flow is lighter today despite 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

Throw the weight up on my shoulders

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 distances without traffic at all. Since living in this city, she has made many adjustments, including how to drive slower and squeeze into 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, and it had 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, and 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, her heart fluttered. Vince gave her this Diamond Limited Edition watch as a birthday present. 

One of Vince's trips to France surprises her to see the box on the coffee table.

Vince arrives at the penthouse before sunrise. He just came by to grab clean clothes and left the gift in his study room. But then he has to go to a business conference in a neighboring province. 

Hailey thinks it over. His gestures really touch her. However, she mused, Vince should not be kind to her but keep his distance. 

Watching the traffic light shift to green, Hailey stepped on the accelerator. She could now see the SHEN GROUP building's silhouette, but it would take her a while when she had to stop several avenues. 

She was 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 second thought, it is confidential.

'Vince is careful not to leak the project,' Hailey thought. '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. She 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, and it's easy to overtake them.' Finally, she got through the traffic jam.

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 sigh, she prepared herself. 'Okay, this is it.'

Hailey casually swayed her hips, walking toward the two Security Guards at the Entrance Door.

"I'm going in now," she told Vince. But the security guards halted her.

"Excuse me, Miss... May I know where you are 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 talked to Vince. "Honey, your security personnel asked me where I am headed."

The two security guards shared a glance. In their mind play the question, 'Who is she talking with on the phone?'

Before they could speak up, the girl waved her hand to someone inside the building. They turned around to check who that person was, just then to find out it was their boss. They straighten their stand and step aside in a flash 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 why we didn't let her in immediately?'

Fear lingering in their chest might lose their job today.

Entering the entrance door, every person in the lounge turned to head toward Hailey's direction. Their eyes were curious, scrutinizing her from the head down to her high-heeled shoes. 

Wearing a plain white fitted blouse and tucking in her fitted jeans: Hailey's body shows all her curves. Her full chest, slim waistline, and tight ass are proudly displayed 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 was meeting her halfway.

Meeting Vince halfway, Hailey studied his expression. He was looking at her tenderly with a massive 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 his employees I was the rumored mistress. I laugh out to myself. 

'Bravo, CEO Shen. I want to smack you!'

She will lose poise with his sudden acts if she's not intelligent enough. 'I'm sulking at the moment. At least share your plans so I can dress up for my grand entrance!'

These are Hailey's thoughts, parting her red lips with a big sweet smile in front of Vince and everyone. 

'Look at me? I just wore denim jeans and a plain blouse with my school ID hanging around my neck! Gratefully, I choose to wear these five-inch high heels shoes.' Sigh. 

'This guy is something….' She frowned in secret.
