Billionaire’s Mistress

“You never thought that your husband would have dinner in this restaurant.” After a pause, she continued, “I was about to walk up to him and say hello to him, but when I found that he was with another person, I didn’t dare to come forward.”

“Why?” I don’t know who Eugene is with, which will make Evelyn feel that she doesn’t dare to greet him.

“Leanna, have you heard of Royston?” She asked in a low voice.

Royston?

The name sounded so familiar?

I tried to recall where I had heard of this name, but soon I remembered it. My expression immediately changed and I looked at Evelyn with a serious expression. “You mean that Eugene is now with that Royston?”

She nodded, “you know Royston too?”

“Not very clear. But someone once mentioned him in front of me and said that he was not a good person.” I remember that Edmund said that.

I believe that Edmund won’t slander another man in front of me for no reason.

“Okay.” Evelyn nodded in agreement and said in a low voice, “Yes, he is not a good man. I heard that he started from a Mafia abroad. He is ruthless and has done a lot of bad things. But because he is very smart and knows investment, he soon made a lot of money. He began to open a company and wash his identity. Now he came back as a successful foreign-funded entrepreneur. At present, he is a popular figure in City Y, because of his overseas background, many financial groups want to find him Cooperation. ”

“So this man is really something.” I finally understand why Edmund reminded me to keep Eugene away from this man.

“Yes, he is a resourceful man. But he is scary just by thinking about it.” Evelyn said and began to eat.

I’m not in the mood to eat now. I’m thinking about a question.

That was why Eugene went to Royston.

What would the two of them talk about when they met.

During the meal, I was absent-minded. Evelyn couldn’t help asking, “Leanna, are you missing your husband? If you want to see him, you can say hello to him. By the way, you can ask him to send you home after dinner.”

“Then you can eat here by yourself. I’ll be back soon.” I was a little worried and decided to go there in person.

“Okay, let’s go. It’s the first box that turns left in the front corridor.” She waved at me.

After giving my bag to Evelyn for safekeeping, I stood up and walked towards the box.

According to the location Evelyn told me, I found the box where Eugene was. Because there was someone eating inside, the door was closed. I couldn’t hear clearly what they were talking about.

When I was about to knock at the door, the door was suddenly opened from inside. I was shocked and subconsciously moved aside. I walked to the door of another box, with my back to the corridor, pretending to push the door in.

Sheila, who was next to Eugene, walked out of the box with a strange man, talking and laughing.

When they passed by me, I vaguely heard the conversation .

“Sheila, Mr. Royston is very interested in The thirteen percent shares of the King group held by the second master. As for the conditions proposed by the The second master, King will think carefully and then give a reply. Your boss can rest assured. Our boss has just come to the thirteen percent shares of the King group, and he is very interested. If he can have the help of the second master, I believe that the matter that he wants to join the board of the two group will go smoothly. ”

“Then I’m looking forward to a pleasant cooperation between us.”

I was shocked to hear the conversation .

As I didn’t hear it wrong just now, what Sheila meant should be that Eugene wanted to sell The shares of the King group to Royston, and Royston’s goal was to take over the board of the group.

Why did Eugene do that?

And what was his condition to Royston?

But anyway, at least there was one thing that could be confirmed for the time being.

That was, Eugene was going to work with Royston to deal with Edmund.

All of a sudden, it occurred to her that Edmund told her not to do anything harmful to others but not to benefit herself that day.

Was that what she meant?

No, I have to ask Edmund to figure it out right away.

Thinking of this, I immediately turned around and went to the hall of the restaurant.

Evelyn was already full. She was sitting in a chair and drinking her beverage with satisfaction.

Seeing that I looked serious, she frowned and asked, “Leanna, what’s wrong with you? Have you seen Mister second?”

“No, Evelyn. Let’s go.” As I spoke, I reached for my bag, took out the money from it and put it on the table. Then I took her hand and walked out.

Evelyn didn’t dare to delay. She picked up the bags she had bought before and followed me out of the restaurant.

When I walked out of the shopping mall, I said goodbye to Evelyn and turned around to the building where the King group was located.

It’s lunch break now, and I don’t have an appointment, so I was stopped at the door by the security.

Fortunately, I have Oarlan’s phone number. As soon as I got through, the security guard let me in and sent me to the special elevator door of the president’s office. He pressed the floor for me.

The elevator went straight up. Edmund’s office was on the top floor, 89 floor.

As there was no pause in the middle, the elevator rose very fast. Not long after, the elevator stopped and the door opened. I walked out and saw Oarlan waiting there.

“Leanna, here you are.” A familiar smile appeared on Oarlan’s face.

I nodded at him and asked, “where is Edmund? Can I see him now?”

“Mr. President has just finished his lunch and is resting in the lounge in his office. Recently, he has a lot of things to deal with in the company. He is too busy to have a good rest. You go to the office with me first and I will call him for you.” Oarlan said as she pushed open the door of the president’s office and motioned for me to go in.

I hesitated for a moment and said, “forget it. Since he is so busy, let him have a good rest. I… I will come again next time.”

“Don’t do it again. We’ve already been here. We have to take a seat. It’s okay. Let’s go inside.” Oarlan invited warmly.

I felt a little embarrassed to refuse his kindness, so I walked into the office.

Edmund’s office was as simple as his home.

There were gray floor tiles, black leather sofa, a simple desk, and a bookshelf full of books on the wall behind the desk. It could be seen that Edmund liked simple and clear things, which was very similar to his character.

There was a door on the left wall of the office, which was closed now. It seemed that it was the lounge Oarlan had mentioned.

I sat down on the sofa. Oarlan poured me a glass of water. “Leanna, what brings you here for the CEO?”

“Okay.” I nodded and thought for a while. I decided not to tell you my purpose.

After all, before I was sure that Eugene was intentionally against Edmund, i thought it would be better for the less people to know about Eugene’s meeting with Royston.

“Mr. President will be very happy if he knows you come to see him when he wakes up.” Oarlan said with a big smile on her face.

“Really?” But I know that Edmund might not be happy if he knows my intention.

“Of course, Leanna. There are too many misunderstandings between you and the president. I think you should have a good talk.”

I know Oarlan wants me and Edmund to get back together, but I know very well that there is no misunderstanding between us now.

Seeing that I lowered my head and kept silent, Oarlan stood up and said to me, “then have a seat here. The CEO usually takes a nap in half an hour. He has already rested for ten minutes. He will probably wake up in twenty minutes.”

“Okay, go ahead with your work. Leave me alone.” I nodded. I really need some time to calm down. Think about it carefully. When I meet Edmund later, how should I tell him about Eugene.

After Oarlan left, I was the only one left in the big office.

I leaned back on the sofa and gradually calmed down.Content provided by NôvelDrama.Org.

Outside the window, she could see all the scenery of City Y.

The height of floor 89 made me feel a little dizzy.

It was not easy to feel cold in a high place. She wondered if Edmund would have the same feeling when he was here.

Time passed by at one point one o’clock. As a pregnant woman, I was easily tired. This noon, I accompanied Evelyn to go shopping. Now I am relaxed and sitting on the sofa. I can’t help but feel sleepy.

It was so quiet around that she fell asleep soon.

I don’t know how long I have slept. When I woke up, I found myself lying on a comfortable big bed.

In front of the French window, the curtain was closed. Light came in through the gap, so I could barely see the situation in the room.

The white wall, gray floor tiles, and even the bed sheet were pure dark gray.

In a breath, a long lost familiar smell rushed into my nose.

Edmund?

This was his Lounge!

All of a sudden, I came to my senses. I quickly lifted the quilt on my body, got out of bed, walked to the door, opened it and was about to go to the office.

But the moment I opened the door, I suddenly saw several people sitting in the CEO’s office. They seemed to be talking about something important.

My figure appeared at the door, causing those people to suddenly look at me.

I didn’t expect that there would be so many people outside. Obviously, from their eyes, I know that my identity has been misunderstood.

I quickly went back tor room and closed the door. My back was tightly against the door. I was breathing heavily and my heart was beating fast.

I’m so stupid. How could I forget that it’s an office outside and there are people coming in and out at any time.

What should she do now?

Everyone must think that I have an affair with Edmund. If they know that I’m Eugene’s wife, no one knows what will happen.

It’s so annoying. Why am I so careless?

I walked to the bed and sat down with a troubled look. I frowned and didn’t know what to do.

After a while, there was a knock on the door. I was frightened like a frightened bird. Then I asked in a low voice, “who is it?”

I didn’t want to see the people in Edmund’s company anymore.

“It’s me.” A familiar voice came from outside. Hearing it, I immediately stood up and walked to open the door.

Edmund stood at the door, wearing an expensive high-end suit, which made him look very energetic.

“Come out.” Seeing that I opened the door and threw two words to him, he turned around and walked to the sofa in the office.

I found that there were only them left in the office.

I followed him slowly to the sofa. The two sat down a long distance between them.

Edmund crossed his legs gracefully.

I was sitting on the other side with a stiff face, and the slightly protruding belly was particularly eye-catching.

“Where are those people?” I don’t know what to say, so I have to ask something unimportant first.

” gone.” His answer was brief. He looked at me and finally looked at my swollen belly.

I found that he was looking at my belly, and his expression immediately became a little uncomfortable. He adjusted his sitting position and said slowly, “I come to you today because I have something to ask you.”

He looked at me silently.

I blinked my eyes, but he didn’t respond, so I said to myself, “last night, you told me to remind Eugene not to do anything harmful to others but not to benefit himself. What do you mean?”

“It seems that he has already started.” He raised his eyebrows slightly. His voice was as calm as water, but his eyes were as deep as ice.

I didn’t expect that he would find out the truth as soon as I opened my mouth. I was a little flustered and tried to hide it. “No, no, he didn’t…”

“No? If he didn’t, would you come to see me in person?”

“I…” I wanted to explain. I was not only worried about Eugene, but also about him.

But on second thought, so what if he said it out?

I have no right to worry about Edmund now?

“Did he meet Royston?”
