Chapter 25
Grace did not dare to leave the pool. She was afraid of meeting Heinz in the changing room, and she
was afraid that he would return, so she was too scared to move out of the pool.
Heinz did not show up after ten minutes.
Grace grew nervous, and she looked around.
Just then, Lester's voice came from a distance. "Miss Smith, the President has left ahead of time. I will
send you back to the office."
Grace was stunned and breathed a sigh of relief.
When Grace was about to get out of the water, she realized something and shouted, "Wait a minute."
Lester, knowingly, replied, "You can go and change your clothes. I'll wait for you in the front hall."
"Thank you." Grace nodded politely.
After Lester left, Grace immediately went into the changing room, changed her clothes quickly, opened
the door, and went out to look for the front hall.
Grace didn’t know how Heinz had left the changing room without using the same door. Maybe there
was another door in the changing room.
Soon, Grace came to the front hall. Lester was looking at her with a smile and said, "Miss Smith, I'll
send you back to the office right now."
Grace was surprised, but she was relieved.
"Thank god the mysterious man is not here." Thought Grace.
"Thank you." Grace said to Lester.
On the way back, Grace couldn't help but ask Lester, "Is Mr. Jones going to set me free now?"
Lester smiled and shook his head. "I don't know."
Grace nodded and looked at Lester, trying to get more information from him.
"Do you really not know, or you are not able to reveal it?"
Lester smiled and said nothing.
Grace did not get any confirmation, and felt uneasy.
"Miss Smith, the Daily Entertainment Magazine is not a good place to stay. Director Chen's reputation
is not very good. You'd better think of a way out. Even if our president doesn't mind this anymore, you
may not necessarily get away from the director."
Grace understood that Lester's words made sense. "Thank you for reminding me."
"This is what our president asked me to tell you," Lester said.
Grace was stunned. But she had a strange feeling.
Soon they arrived at the office.
Lester did not leave when Grace got off the car.
Grace was puzzled and asked, "Is there anything else?"
"Our president asked me to walk you in," Lester said.
"There's no need for you to..." Grace doesn't want anyone to judge her.
"Let me walk you in." Lester interrupted her.
Grace could not change his mind in the end.
As soon as the two entered the office, the clamour of chatting voices immediately quieted down and the
office went silent. Everyone was looking at Grace.
Feeling the weight of the combined gaze, Grace felt very embarrassed.
Lester stopped walking and asked monotonously, "Where is director Chen?"
"Here, I'm here." Chen said as he came out of the room. His face was red and swollen, but he had to
smile. When he saw Grace, he froze and then smiled at Lester, "Hi, how can I help you?"
"Director Chen, Miss Smith is Mr. Jones's friend. Please take good care of her." Lester said flatly, his
voice resonating all over the office.
Not only was Chen shocked upon hearing this, but Grace was also stunned. She couldn't believe that
she had become Heinz's friend.
"Yes, sure thing." Chen nodded quickly.
Lester looked at Grace again and said, "Miss Smith, this is Mr. Jones's phone number. If you are in
trouble, you can call him."
After that, Lester handed over a special gold plated name-card to her.
Grace was shocked. The business card was made of gold. It looked absolutely luxurious.
Lester saw that Grace was staring at the business card and did not take it, so he pressed it in her hand.
He then looked around the office and left quickly without saying another word.
Grace stared blankly at the name-card for a long time without moving.
As soon as Lester left, Chen looked at Grace and his expression changed. Chen frowned, but when he
saw the business card in Grace’s hand, he still smiled and said, "Grace, you are very powerful. Once
you got on Mr. Jones's car, you solved the problem for our company. You are indeed amazing. On
behalf of all our colleagues, thank you."Property belongs to Nôvel(D)r/ama.Org.
