Outside the SHEN GROUP building, Vince pulled up the door for Hailey to get inside her car.

"Thanks..." Blushed, she thanked Vince. She knows this is part of their act, but lately, she couldn't control her heart to flutter from his gestures. Her chest-beating crazily like she will have a heart seizure at any moment.

Hailey thought Vince would leave now. But he remained leaning on the car. 'What is he doing?' The way Vince acted lately left a concern in her chest.

"All right. If you came across Zenaida and she bothered you. Tell me right away. Let me take care of her."

"Don't worry. I won't yield without a fight. But if you don't like me to do scandalous scenes, I won't fight back."

Hearing her reasoning like this, Vince couldn't stop himself from bursting out a laugh. The scene they were witnessing surprised the two security guards at the entrance door. However, they pretend to see nothing.

"Okay. Of course, you should protect yourself. But let me know if anyone causes you trouble. I'll deal with it."

Couldn't find words to respond, Hailey nodded and tore a timid smile. She was more preoccupied settling down her chest than listening to him. She's more worried Vince will hear how fast her heart is beating at the moment.

"I might not come home early tonight, so just fix something for you."

Vince uttered, and she realized it was so close to her ears. 'Now he is acting like a lover?' Hailey thought. It made her more uncomfortable. 'He's not informing me of his activities before. That's new.' She mused.

"Okay! Got it!" she sighs under her breath, Vince still so close to her.𝗳𝗿𝐞𝐞𝘄𝐞𝗯𝐧𝗼𝐯𝐞𝗹.𝗰𝗼𝐦

"Have a safe drive on your way to the university," said Vince. He then planted a kiss on her forehead.

Meanwhile, Timothy Cheng, Vince's assistant, was shaking his head while peering down below. His boss has the leisure time to flirt in the middle of work. Tim lifted his head, then to find out the other Executives were also curiously leaning in the floor-ceiling window to gossip. They were curious to meet the mistress, but they were on the 55th floor. Impossible to have a clearer view down below.

Tim coughs to remind everyone to go back to their seat. Embarrassed, they sat down and waited for the CEO to come back.

Like bitten red, Hailey trotted into her LaFerrari Aperta and squeezed the traffic to arrive at school on time.

'What is wrong with that CEO? He suddenly is touchy!' Although it was in the contract that she would allow him to do such things for their acts like being intimate with each other.

Maybe I'm just not used to have an intimate interaction with my opposite sex because I never had a boyfriend since birth. All she had was a bunch of boys' friends.

Hailey was in deep thoughts when she remembered what Zenaida replied to Vince about Eva. Does no one know of her whereabouts? That's impossible.

She didn't believe it when Zenaida said her sister was still not contacting them. But what is Vince doing? Why didn't he take this seriously? With his money and influence, surely he could afford to pay someone to look for his wife.

Even though he hated chasing a woman, the case is his divorce from Eva.

'It seems like I need to step in and help Vince search for his wife. Once Eva found and signed the divorce paper, it meant it was the end of our contract.' Hailey thought.
