5.56% His Contractual Mistress / Chapter 31: Her Command

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 wished to be in her place. Not only that, but she could also hear their insults. 

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

One man's bystanders whispered to his friends. "I wonder how President Shen would react 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 has 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 laughed 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.

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

Anyway, even to her, she doesn't know either. She just woke 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 his friend before he offered her the contract.

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

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

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

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

In their mind, they were cursing her. But in reality, they could only laugh behind her back but shut up when she faced them.

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

They only have the guts to talk when the person they insult is out of 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 was to feel superior. For them, she is only proud because of the person backing her, Vincent Shen.

For them, she is nothing.

However, Hailey never uses her family's wealth and influence 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 her.

Howie Gu annoyed a while ago, is now 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 talked to Cheryl. She said, "Can I have the key card now?"

"Ah, right away!" Cheryl left the front desk. She headed toward the room where it kept the Super VIP keys. From there, it needs the authority of 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 in the hallway, headed to the left wing of this main resort building.

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

"Get your filthy hands off me!" Hailey glared 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 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 hearing his remark caused her ears to buzz. 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 about how sissy this guy is. He threatened her by boasting about his father's position in the country. She was really disgusted by these kinds of people like Howie Gu. 

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

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

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

"Hello, James? Please give me all the information about Senator John Gu from P Country and his son's name. I heard one of them is an international architect. I need his info 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 wore a Violette bold mauve shade of lipstick.

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

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

When she's ready to leave, Hailey places her dirty clothes in a plastic bag and puts 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.

She walked down the hallway that led to the lobby. From casual jeans and a t-shirt, not she wore a fitted dress and stilettos. Everyone lounging in the lobby dropped their mouths upon seeing her new appearance.

And those women who laughed at her swallowed in shock. Their contempt for her has drastically deteriorated because of their envy of her. 

They could not stop scanning her from the head down to her shoes. Their eyes exhibit how they wish they were in her place as Vince's mistress.

And as usual, Hailey would only ignore them but be enthusiastic when she talked to Cheryl like nothing had happened a while 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.

Cheryl waves her hand, staring at Hailey with admiration. They were neighbors in the apartment they rented for a short time, and she learned a little about her. 

Hailey was a nice person. She actually helped her once when she was on 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 quick healing.

Hailey had also helped Nadia before; she was sure they were not the only people she helped. 

Hailey dialed Geoffrey's contact the moment she got out of the resort. 

"Hey, Hail! What's up?" 

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

"Okay. What is it?" 

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