His Contractual Mistress

Chapter 99 - Flash Drive

In a couple of days, they stayed at West Bay Port; Hailey spoils Vince with kinds of seafood at lunch, then barbecues in the evening.

Vince has never been happy being pampered this way, even though he grows up with luxury and good food, always on the table with the care of nannies and bodyguards to make sure he is healthy.

But it felt different from being taken care of by the person he loves.

One morning, Hailey wore boots paired with faded jeans, a plain white t-shirt, and a black jacket with a pink cap on her head.

Vince had a puzzled expression on his face, staring at Hailey with this kind of get-up. His forehead curled in frustration.

"Why do you have to go by yourself when I can ask the bodyguards or Tim to go to the fish market?"

Hailey holds back, not laughing out loud. Vince was too cute, pouting in front of her. He was like a kid who a mom told that he could not accompany her and the place she will go to is not suitable for kids.

"I'll be fine! I'm driving a different car so that no one can recognize or notice me. Besides, Tim was very busy." And she knew it. She need not guess about that.

However, Vince grumbling inwardly. He frowned as he mused, 'No one can notice?'

He looked at Hailey from the head down to her boots. She was 5 feet and nine inches tall. He is six foot and two inches; their height is not that short of a difference. And the jeans she wore only emphasize her curves, especially her buttocks.

Who would not take five glances at her?

She did not wear any makeup today, which makes her more attractive, and only painted her lips with lip gloss.

Vince sighed in frustration. He disapproves, but he could not stop Hailey.

"I'll be right back!" Hailey placed a kiss on Vince's left cheek, then rushed to the door.

Honestly, she could not reveal to Vince that she has another objective to go out with herself this morning.

Hailey drove an old Chevy truck toward the public market. There is no traffic around here but on the other side of the City Public Market. It's because Vince requested the police to control the vehicles that would enter West Bay Port for the time being.

It took only fifteen minutes, and she arrived at the place. She parked her car and entered the market with a bit of vigilance to her surroundings.

But she didn't know what Vince had thought before he left the penthouse. Like Vince suspected, everyone couldn't help to glance in her direction, both men and women checking out her body.

However, Hailey noticed these curious eyes looking at her, but she ignored them; instead, she hurried to buy all she needed for lunch.

Hailey didn't take long; she finished her shopping immediately. As usual, Mr. Bill helps her carry her shopping bags.

"Thank you, Mr. Bill."

"You are welcome, Miss Hailey." Said the guy. He bowed and left after he placed the icebox at the back of the truck.

Hailey is tapping her fingers on the steering wheel. She didn't move out yet from the parking lot but studied her surroundings.

Outside, people are in and out of the market. One vehicle arrives, but others leave after they finished shopping, giving another space to park for the next shoppers.

"Hello, sir, ma'am! Tomorrow is the opening of our Car Shop, close to the market! Please visit us when you have free time today! We offer a free check-up for the first ten cars who will arrive at exactly eight o'clock in the morning, and we are also offering a car wash service! Free for the first thirty cars! We also offered a complete restoration of your car! Inner and outer complete cleaning!" Said of a man in his late thirties, giving flyers to everyone in the market.

He continues blabbing about his promotion. Later, he puts flyers on the car windshield. As the guy continued distributing the pamphlets, he reached where Hailey had parked. He knocks on Hailey's driver's window.

"Hi, ma'am. You can drop by at our shop; we're giving a free car wash tomorrow! You can show the flyer as a ticket, ma'am!"

Hailey nodded. She also smiled at the guy. Seeing her nods, the guy places a flyer on the windshield.

When he was away, Hailey rolled down the window and reached for the flyer. Her eyes scanned the flyer in a flash and then flipped it to see the back.

Hailey pulled out her phone from her sling bag and dialed someone's contact.

"Sandy, I received the evidence. I want your friend to understand my terms now that he meets me."

"Don't worry, Princess. Bruce knows the consequences if he exposes you. He is loyal to you. In fact, he is ready to throw his body to catch a bullet for you, Princess. And so, if you needed him, he is just a call away."

'Catch a bullet, huh?' Hailey chuckled. Hmm... She had a new knight.

"Alright, tell him to continue monitoring those involved in Mr. Shen's car accident."

"Aye, Princess. I will DM Bruce's phone number in case you need him, or you have a new order for him."

"Okay. Looks like a good idea." Anyway, it would be no different. Now that the secret agent she has been hiring this whole time she was in P Country finally met her, and so it's no use keeping her identity from here on.

Hailey took the small envelope that glued to the back of the flyer. She took out the flash drive and stared at it for a few seconds before she put it back in the envelope and placed it into her sling bag.

Finally, the evidence was in her hands. It's just a matter of time to hand it over to the right person.

She turned on the engine and drove the car toward the exit gate of the parking area.

Meanwhile, at the penthouse, after Hailey left. Vince immediately phoned Tim to inquire about the project he assigned to him.

"What happened to the project I am assigning you?"

"Boss, I'm sorry. I haven't had time to check the IT department regarding the app you are requesting." Tim was sweating while explaining. He could not reason out to his boss that his work became triple since the car accident, and he has no time to check the presentation.

The IT team he picked out was only waiting for his approval before finalizing their presentation to the boss.

Anyway, Vince understands Tim has taken care more of his meetings and projects, plus he also accompanied his dad to meet their major clients for the progress of their projects. They are not just a Construction Firm or Architectural Firm. They are both, and they are also producing all the materials that are going to use for the building. It is what makes them an advantage over the other firm.

They don't need to cooperate with an outside company, but with his cousins' companies. They are all helping until the SHEN GROUP becomes a giant corporation.

After a brief pause, Vince ended the call. "Alright. It's just coming to my mind, so I wonder if it is finished. Anyway, bring over the documents I needed to sign after you get off work."

"Copy, boss." Tim sighs with relief. He thought the boss would scold him. Well, it looks like this is still the effect of being in love. It made him a little surprised when suddenly his boss declared his affection to his fake mistress in front of his face.

When his boss was muttering those sweet words in front of his parents and parents-in-law, he still wanted to believe it was an act. But when he drove them into the West Bay penthouse and saw them kissing on the balcony, he confirmed that their relationship was officially real because they need not act in his presence when he knew their secret agreement.
