"Then why did you ss with Philip?" I asked, recalling her earlier provocations.
She shrugged, "They’re just like my lapdogs. I give them a few bones, and they’ll wag their tails."
"What about the deal for three nights?"
Grace burst into laughter. "I knew you would ask that."
"Is it that funny?"
"Of course it’s funny!"
She laughed for a while and said, "See, even you think so. What would others think?"
"How would I know what others think?"
"Alright. You stingy man."
She lightly pinched my chin and explained, "The deal for three nights was indeed spread by , but I look down on those people. The workplace is cruel, and the quickest way to get ahead is to use your own characteristics. My characteristics are my body and beauty. Whether it’s clients or colleagues, they all like them."
"I say three nights for one deal, and they will definitely give the order to . As long as the order is in my hand, it’s like a fish on the hook. I can play with them as I please."
Grace revealed a smug smile, seeming to control everything. "So, I live very comfortably, and my performance is far ahead. Although it’s a bit shaful, that’s the workplace."
After learning the truth, I was at a loss. Hearing her casually talk about the causes and consequences, I was overwheld.
She was a very scheming woman with a lot of experience.
It was hard to tell when she might laugh or cry.
I never knew if what she said was true or false, yet I still felt sorry for her, unable to resist wanting to sympathize and protect her.
This woman saw through n too well.
Grace was almost the best at controlling people.
"Why did you tell this? Aren’t you afraid I’ll expose it to others?"
"Will you?"
She said, "If you do, then consider blind and mistaken in judging people."
I touched my nose. "You don’t want to date , do you?"
"Do you want to date ?" she asked back.
"I’m afraid you’ll swallow whole."
"Are you taking for a spider demon?"
"You’re not a spider demon, but a more dangerous and seductive demon."
"You, a coward with lust but no courage."
’Damn! Such a description again!’
"Do you believe I could punish you on the spot right now?"
Grace provocatively straightened her chest. "Don’t you dare. There’s a jungle over there. Dare to take in?"
I swallowed and jokingly said, "There are a lot of mosquitoes inside. If they bite you, that would be too bad."
"I knew you lacked courage!"
She covered her mouth and chuckled. "But you give a different feeling. Although I am not a noble lady, I’m not a woman who can be taken advantage of by anyone. Although I’m greedy, I have my limits, and that is absolutely not being taken advantage of."
I smirked and didn’t say anything, thinking, ’Aren’t you practically letting take advantage of you now?’
But it was also for money.
"I know what you’re thinking in your eyes. I’m a loose woman, who can accept anyone."
I covered her mouth with my hand. "I’ve never thought of you that way. I believed what you said on the rooftop!"
"Really?"
"Certainly!"
Then she gave a kiss.
But it stopped there. Even though I wanted more, for the sake of the long-term plan, I decided to wait until I got Grace out of Skylight.
Taking advantage of her moved state, I said, "If one day, I have to leave, what will you do?"
I looked into her eyes. If there was anything special in her gaze, I could see it clearly. What I said before was just an excuse, and this was the main point.
"You want to leave Skylight? Where to?" she asked.
"Have you really seduced the CEO of Wallace Company and you’re planning to walk in there?" she said.
I was speechless. "Where did this gossip from?"
I had spent very little ti in the company these days, so I had no idea what rumors were circulating internally.
"Wallace Company and Marquesa Vines company support you so much, so many envy you, and so say you’re planning to resign and change your job."
I shook my head. "How is that possible? Even if I were to change my job, I wouldn’t go to Wallace Company."
"So, you are indeed considering a job change?"
Grace leaned in. "Is that what you wanted to tell during the day? Do you want to co with you?"
’Damn! Her intuition was so strong. I just casually ntioned it, and she could already make connections.’
It seed every woman was a natural detective.
But since the conversation had reached this point, I wanted to know what Grace thought. I couldn’t spend months building a relationship with her, and even if I did, she might not leave.
In her eyes, money ca first, not to ntion the impact of her experiences during her youth.
"Yes, I want you to leave Skylight."
I said, "You are competent, I an in marketing. I want you to co and help . I’ve started a company, and at the beginning, I need an experienced manager. If you’re willing to co, you will be the manager."
"What if I say no?"
"Then there’s nothing I can do."
I chuckled bitterly. "Everyone has their own aspirations. I can’t force you. And I have to ask you not to tell anyone. Because for now, I can’t leave Skylight."
"I thought you might use those photos to threaten ."
"You’re underestimating ."
I said, "I may be lecherous, but I’m not despicable. I can’t stoop to using such things to blackmail a hardworking woman."
"William, you’re really different from other n."
"Of course I’m different from others, as they’re not as charming as I am!"
"Co on!"
Grace pinched my waist, not painful, but I still grimaced.
"Oh, you’re trying to assassinate !"
She gave a speechless look. "I didn’t use much force!"
