I Met The Female CEO While Escaping A Blind Date

Chapter 69: Are You Having an Affair?

No one knew what happened to William Scott and Bruce King. After a while, the men on the ground got up and rushed in the direction that both of them had left.

Just as everyone was considering whether to go over and help, Bruce King and William Scott appeared. Nobody knew what Bruce King had said, but he left with his men. William Scott slowly walked back.

“William! I was blind to not have recognized you and I even criticized you. I’ll apologize to you first. You won’t blame me, right?” Hayley Lands was the first to go up to him with a fawning expression, but her eyes were filled with panic.

William Scott sighed in his heart. He did not teach Bruce King a lesson in front of everyone because he did not want everyone to look at him with prejudice. But it was clearly useless.

With a smile, he said, “Why should I blame you? We’re classmates.”

Hayley Lands looked at William Scott suspiciously and said, “You really don’t blame me?”

Sheila Zinc said helplessly, “Hayley Lands, don’t judge William like you usually do.”

Hayley Lands couldn’t help feeling ashamed. “I’m sorry.”

Hayley Lands was concerned about whether William Scott would bear a grudge against her. Others were more concerned about what had happened between him and Bruce King. Or rather, they were more concerned about whether Bruce King had recruited William Scott. Therefore, those men immediately asked curiously.

Facing everyone’s curious gazes, William Scott could only say, “I’m a decent person. So I won’t join a gang. If we want to earn money, we’ll earn it using legitimate ways. As for how this matter was settled, I mentioned to him that I know a friend who has some connections with Bruce King. He is very well-connected, so this matter is resolved.”

Ronan Toft’s eyes lit up. “Your friend is so powerful that even Bruce King has to respect him.”

William Scott knew what Ronan Toft was up to. He smiled and said, “I guess so, but he doesn’t like others looking for him. So I don’t want to look for him if I can help it.”

Ronan Toft smiled awkwardly. “I didn’t mean anything by it.”

......

At this moment, no one dared to underestimate William Scott anymore. Thinking about how he had beaten up more than ten hooligans alone just now, it was terrifying.

Now, even Bruce King had been sent away by William Scott. No matter how he had done it, no one else had done so.

As for whether William Scott wanted to earn legitimate money and continue working as a mover, no one cared anymore. They even thought that this was his principle.

Actually, no one was in the mood to drink anymore. William Scott said that it had been resolved, but who knew if Bruce King would come back again? Therefore, everyone chatted for a while before getting up and leaving.

Soon, only William Scott, Ronan Toft, Xavier Herd, and Sheila Zinc were left.

Ronan Toft was no longer that arrogant. He said, “Why don’t… we talk somewhere else?”

Sheila Zinc looked at William Scott. Before he could speak, his phone rang. It was from Xenia Lewis. William Scott said apologetically, “I’ll go take this call first.” Then, he walked out with his phone.

Sheila Zinc glanced at William Scott and narrowed her eyes. Then, she turned to Xavier Herd and said, “Xavier, does William have other female friends?”

Xavier Herd hurriedly replied, “Even if there is, they’re definitely just ordinary friends. You’re his first love. At the very least, he harbored a secret crush for you. No one else can compare to your position in his heart.”

When Ronan Toft heard this, he couldn’t help but feel a little jealous. He stood up and said, “I still have something on and I have to leave. I’ve already paid the bill. You guys can continue to chat.” It was better not to stay here.

For some reason, William Scott had avoided Sheila Zinc when he picked up Xenia Lewis’ call. In short, he subconsciously went out to answer the call.

“CEO Su, when will you be back? I have something to discuss with you.” As soon as the call went through, Xenia Lewis’ voice came through. She sounded very formal.

“You’re still going back to the company at this time of night?” William Scott asked suspiciously.

“A phone call would be fine, but I was wondering if you were at home. It might not be a convenient time to talk.”

“Oh, I’ll be done here too. I’ll be home in about half an hour.”

“All right, let’s talk again in half an hour.” After saying that, Xenia Lewis ended the call.

On the way back, he met Sheila Zinc and Xavier Herd.

William Scott shrugged and said, “I have to head back. My partner still has something to discuss with me.”

“Okay, work is important.” Sheila Zinc nodded.

Sheila Zinc and William Scott’s houses were in opposite directions. Xavier Herd lived near Sheila Zinc, so William Scott asked him to send her back.

Sheila Zinc got into the car and waved her phone at William Scott. “Let’s exchange our contact numbers.”

William Scott waved his hand with a smile.

Sitting in the car, William Scott actually felt like he was dreaming.

The feelings he had when he was young were indeed unforgettable. Those feelings were something that a person would never forget in their entire life. It was originally something to reminisce about, but now the girl had suddenly appeared in front of him and she seemed to be within his reach.

This really gave William Scott a strong sense of satisfaction. His years of dreams seemed to have come true just like that.

However, he seemed to feel that it was a little imperfect. Even if such a dream was achieved, it should be completed bit by bit. It was as if something was missing in the process.

“Sigh, why am I thinking so much?” he muttered to himself and shook his head gently. Relationships were too extravagant for him. It was not something he could enjoy now.

After returning home, William Scott took the initiative to call Xenia Lewis.

“Xenia, I’m home.”

“Oh, you’re back. That’s quite early. I thought you guys would be out until midnight or even all night.”

“It’s just a class reunion. It’s fine as long as we met each other to catch up.”

“Really? Did you meet your first love?”

“Pfft…” William Scott felt that Xenia Lewis had hit the spot right away.

He hesitated for a moment, but she had already shouted, “Ah, you really have a first love. Spill it! When you saw her again, are you tempted to be with her?”

William Scott quickly said, “Me and her… Of course not.”

“You hesitated. Your answer didn’t sound so sure at all. William Scott… you actually have an affair. Boohoo…”

William Scott actually felt a little guilty after being questioned by Xenia Lewis.
