His Contractual Mistress Chapter 11: Her Mistake

Chapter 11:Her Mistake

She pulled out her phone from her bag and texted Nadia, a friend she made here in tro City after renting an apartnt. They beca neighbors before moving in at Vince's penthouse, but they were also classmates in her other subjects.

"Hey, is there new gossip about ?" she texted Nadia.

Later Nadia sent a screenshot, and the post accused her as a ho-wrecker. She scoffed. She knew it was Zenaida behind this rumor.

Hailey searches the OP to leave a comnt.

"For the person behind this post? I guess you are not different from a ho-wrecker as well. You know why? Because you wish your sister to divorce him, so it was your chance to be his next wife. Are you happy she is missing, or you actually pretend to know nothing of her whereabouts? Dream on, Sister!"

Later, her classmates realized she's the one who comnted on the post. Netizens feasted just a minute before she posted it.

At that mont, it drew the attention of another person. Several netizens guessed it referred to Zenaida Lan when it ntioned "sister" on the post.

Now Zenaida has bombarded a question of whether it's true that she has feelings for her brother-in-law and seeks romantic treatnt from him.

anwhile, Zenaida Lan was in a rage inside her office.

"That slut! How dare she slander like this!" Zenaida scread. It worries her now that the people will believe what that mistress comnted on social dia.

Although she starts it, there's no way she would admit it!

But how if Vince believes it? How could she show her face from then on?

She was cautious not to show any hint to Vince that she loved him for a long ti already.

"That Mistress! I will take my revenge on this one!" Zenaida swears that day.

Later in the afternoon, her classes ended that day. Hailey went straight ho from her original plans of treating Nadia and Liza to dinner.

She was heaving a long sigh, musing how to apologize to Vince later or tomorrow. She was taking the elevator up to the penthouse, and now she realized she made a mistake.

She has to apologize. How stupid of her dragging Vince's reputation into worthless gossip?

Ah, you're not thinking, Hailey!

She didn't think it would beco a slap in Vince's image.

The SHEN GROUP is the one that took over, for the Lan Enterprise survives bankruptcy. Zenaida is working under Vince, and Vince is the one who supervises the company. For what she did, now the working relationship between the two would put in a great awkwardness.

Ah! I made a big mistake! Well, she doesn't care about Zenaida. All she cares about is Vince.

Hailey heaves a sigh before she opens the penthouse door. She wishes the floor to eat her.

Vince is ho!

Now what she better do? She needs to apologize, and she should do it bravely.

Hailey pressed her eyelids and bit her lower lip. Slowly, she changed her high heels into house slippers, silently walked toward the living room...

Vince was sitting on the sofa, crossing his long legs while browsing on his phone. Certainly, Vince already heard about the rumors and her stupid comnt. Well, it isn't ridiculous for her. But for Vince, it's not a smart act.

Hailey halted one ter from the sofa. She lowered her head and said, "I'm sorry."

Without sparing a glance in her direction, Vince asked her. "What did you do?"

'Ugh. Now he plans to torture with his queries? Can't he assu that he already knew the reason I am apologizing now?' She mumbled in silence.

"Ahem! I made a mistake."

Still, Vince kept his gaze on his phone. "What kind of mistake?" he asked emotionlessly.

Hailey rolled her eyes in secret and secretly sulked. 'Dang, please!' Heaving a sigh, she confessed, "I shouldn't waste my ti answering the rumors online."

"Why?" Vince asked flatly.

'Ugh! This CEO is childish! How old is he? 31? Do his employees know he's acted this way? Is this how he scolded his employees? Wait, I'm doing the sa too! Ugh. But at least I'm still 24. Even turning 25 soon, I could still act a bit childish at work.' She giggles, and it's late to cover her silly mouth.

Hearing she seems to enjoy this, Vince raises his head and looks at her. "So, do you think it's fun?"

Hailey shakes her head. She lowered her gaze when Vince furrowed his brows and creased his forehead.

"No..." she replied in a low voice.

'Dang. I'm done. Ugh. Dad never lectures like this. It was the first ti I was on trial.' she pouted in secret, held herself not to roll her eyes.

After a dramatic silence, Vince muttered, "What did I tell you this morning?"

Rembering what happens this morning, her cheeks imdiately blush, and her heart flips from how loud it thuds.

'Which one is he talking about?' Hailey mused. She processed her brain until she rembered what Vince told her before he kissed her forehead.

"Um... You said, you will deal with her..." she has to bear his scolding; she's at fault, anyway.

"Then, what now?" Vince snaps Hailey.

'What does he an now?' she made a careful thought, then she uttered, "I will delete what I posted."

"Do you think that would be helpful? It's already spread like wildfire. Countless social dia users have taken a screenshot and shared it. Can you still stop it?"

"I... If you want to, I will find a way." 'OMG! I've never been scolded like this! The boys never dare to!'

"I'm sorry. I would not do it again. I an, starting today, I will carefully decide if it's worth giving attention to. Next ti, I will choose what battle I should fight."

Vince only answered her with a sigh. He rose from the sofa and headed to the stairs.

Furrowing her forehead, she asked the guy. "You are going to a business eting, right?"

"No. I sent Tim to take care of the deal."

She swallowed. It only ans Vince is mad. Not only that, the rumors just happened today. He should et none of his business partners to avoid answering the questions related to her comnt. Now it will be her fault if Tim would not close the deal. She needs to do sothing to lighten Vince's mood.

"What dinner do you like to prepare?" she asked.

Vince shrugs a shoulder; he replied, "I don't know. Anything that won't poison ."

Her mouth dropped open. She frowned, mumbling in her head, 'He's this mad to joke this way?' But she won't give up until he forgives her. However, Vince's following statent makes her have second thoughts.

"Leave the food on the table. I will co down if I'm hungry."

Hailey rendered speechlessly.
