His Contractual Mistress

Chapter 31:Her Command

She could hear gasps and low laughs in the lobby. A few did an insulting laugh toward her, and she knew it was from those jealous women who wish to be in her place. Not only that, but she could also hear their insults.

And among these mocking laughter, that echoed in that lobby, it was meant for Howie. For them, he is digging his own grave.

One man's bystanders whispered to his friends. "I wonder what would be President Shen's reaction after watching this video."

"Send it! I want Vincent Shen to kick Howie's ass!" One concurred and encouraged his friend. They laugh inwardly. It was a rare sight to have a scene like this one.

Even after receiving an insult from Howie, Hailey still ignores him. She turned around to look at every face in that lobby.

She recognizes most of the men from the same circle as Vince. But for the women, she guesses that few of them are from the entertainment industry, which had no name yet.

Hailey's gaze fixed on this group of women. She plastered a sweet smile on her lips, ignoring the curious eyes looking at her.

"Jealous of me?" She ridiculed those who laugh at her. If she wasn't aware, these starlets are only here to hunt executives to have a name in the entertainment industry, and one they hope to fish is Vincent Shen.

Ironically, Vince didn't spare any attention to them, and that makes them hate her to the extreme. On one hand, it intrigues them how she seduces Vince. Until now, it was a mystery for them.

Anyway, even to her, she doesn't know either. She just wakes up one day signing an agreement with him.

Seduce? She never seduces Vincent Shen. In fact, she was avoiding him. However, their paths always cross. And one day, that's it! She just found herself being a friend of him, before he offered her the contract.

But then, everything came naturally. Vince is not difficult to talk with as to what the rumors saying. Therefore, he would listen and consider things on her behalf.

He is also sweet she could reckon it was romantic? Honestly, she doesn't know what is the difference between a friendly romance like her and Bryan or the fake romance she and Vince acting.

Wait... Why is she thinking of this stuff at the moment? Back to reality!

Hailey gather her thought in one place. Staring downward at those women, no one dares to counter but only meeting her stern gaze.

In their mind, they were cursing her. But in reality, all they could do is just laugh behind her back, but shut up when she faces them.

"What? Why don't you say it loudly? Come on girls! Don't be shy!" Hailey challenges those women who gossip about her, but now none responded to her.

They only had the guts to talk when the person they insult is out of their sight. But now that she faces them, no one can open their mouths.

Shaking her head, Hailey chuckled. "Next time, don't laugh at me if you can't open your mouth in front of me."

She was staring at them menacingly, and they felt ridiculous how ass she is to feel superior. For them, she is only proud because of the person backing her, and that is Vincent Shen.

For them, she is nothing.

However, Hailey never uses her family wealth and influences to show people she is superior to them. She would never waste her time and energy on unimportant people unless something serious happens that challenges her tolerance and for some reason, that will soon test.

Howie Gu, who was annoyed a while ago, now he's grinning with excitement. He thought that Vincent Shen's mistress was interesting.

Howie Gu clapped his hands and said, "I like you! How much did Vincent Shen pay you? I might double it. No, I can triple it!"

But again, Hailey only ignored him. Howie felt embarrassed that he looked like an idiot talking to the air.

Hailey turned around and talk to Cheryl. She said, "Can I have the key card now?"

"Ah, right away!" Cheryl left, she headed toward the room where it keeps the Super VIP keys. From there, it needs the authority from the floor manager to release the key card that belongs to President Vincent Shen.

"Here!" Cheryl handed the key card to Hailey, who left the lobby immediately.

Meanwhile, Howie was in a fuss that someone dared to ignore him. He followed Hailey on the hallway headed to the left-wing of this resort main building.

When he caught up to her pace, he grabbed her arm.

"Get your filthy hands off me!" Hailey shrieked, glaring at Howie coldly, but the guy only sneered at her.

"You excite me." He uttered, thrills could sense in his voice.

Hailey felt so disgusted encountering a pervert like him. She tried to pull her arm, but Howie gripped it tight, in an attempt to pull her closer to hug her.

"Let me go, now!" Gritting her teeth, she scowled at the guy.

"Wow. I like it! Are you playing hard to get during have sex with Vincent Shen?"

Howie mumbled further that it causes for her ears to buzz, upon hearing his remark. She furrowed her brows and darkened her gaze.

"What a psycho!" she yelled at him.

After saying it, Hailey punches Howie in the face and kicks his balls. He kneeled, holding his precious buddy.

"Dammit! You bitch!" He cursed, glaring at Hailey furiously. "My father is Senator John Gu! I will make you pay for this!"

How foolish! Hailey felt ridiculous how sissy this guy is. Now he threatened her by boasting about his father's position in the country. She was really disgusted by this kind of people like Howie Gu.

Now that she knew little information about his family, Hailey left Howie and pressed the elevator button and get inside once the door is open.

Vince's suite is on the fifth floor of this building. Hailey stepped out of the lift when she arrived at the floor, she followed the left-wing hallway.

While she open the door, she dialed someone's contact.

"Hello, James? Give me all the information about Senator John Gu from P Country and the name of his son. I need it ASAP..."

Hailey placed her phone on the table and began undressing. She only had a quick shower, blew dry her hair, and changed into clean clothes.

Hailey scanned the closet. There are three sets of dresses that she has never worn yet. She chose the emerald green off-shoulder short dress that perfectly hugged her body.

Since she was wearing a dress, she cared to apply light makeup but wear a Violette bold mauve shade of lipstick.

She styled her long hair with a messy bun, emphasizing her long neck and shoulders. Hailey scanned her reflection in the mirror. Now, all she needs is high heel shoes.

What she has here is a cream and green stiletto. And of course, the perfect to pair in his dress is the green one.

When she's ready to left, Hailey places her dirty clothes in a plastic bag and places them in a leather tote bag.

She was trailing the hallway when she received an email from James. While on the elevator, Hailey read the reports. She could not help to push a grin on the corner of her lips.

"How interesting," she mumbled upon stepping out of the elevator.

Howie Gu is one of the Architects who design her hotel.

"What a fateful coincidence!" Hailey mumbled inwardly.

And those women who laugh at her, swallowing their saliva in shocked. The contempt they felt for her has drastically deteriorated because of the envy they felt toward her.

They could not stop scanning her from the head down to her shoes. In their eyes has the wishes that they were in her place as Vince's mistress.

And as usual, Hailey would only ignore them, but full of enthusiasm when she's talking to Cheryl like nothing happens awhile ago.

"Hi, Cheryl! Here's the key card. Thank you."

"Your welcome, Hailey!"

"Bye! See you around!" Hailey bid goodbye to Cheryl. Head high, she left the Reception counter with a bright smile across her face.

Cheryl waves her hand, staring at Hailey with admiration. For the short time that they were neighbors in the apartment they rented, she got to know a little about her.

Hailey was a nice person. She actually helped her once when she was in night shifts, and her grandmother had a fever. It was Hailey who watched her grandma for days. She makes her soup and blends mixed vegetables and fruits for her quick healing.

Hailey also helps Nadia before, and she was sure they are not the only people she helps.

Outside the building, Hailey dialed Geoffrey's contact and made a quick talk.

"Hey, Hail! What's up?"

"Hi! I have a brief word for you."

"Okay. What is it?"

"I want to remove the LN Group in our project," she commanded Geoffrey.
