Dangerous Desire The CEO’s Hidden Woman

Amanda hurriedly walked towards Francis back at his office. Upon seeing that, Francis put his cell phone away and asked seriously, “What’s the matter?”

“Boss, recently, the advertising department has chosen a star as our new spokesman…”

Francis nodded his head and said, “Yeah, they reported that to me. The previous contract is about to expire, so they wanted to find a new spokesman.”

“Here is the problem…the spokesman they invited is Mary Patel,” Amanda explained.

“How the hell did that happen?” he frowned.

“Considering the trend of our company’s development, they think the next spokesman for our company must be an influential star, and Mary is really a good option, but…” Amanda stopped before she finished her sentence.

“Have they reached an agreement?” he asked.

“Yes, they have, but they haven’t signed the contract yet. And I just learned about all of this when they sent the document to me today. Shall I tell them to find someone to replace her?” she asked.

After a thought, Francis just said, “Not necessary. Sign her!”

It would cause some unnecessary trouble, in Francis’s opinion, if he decided to find someone else to replace her so late in the process.

When Amanda heard that, she hesitated a while and said, “Will Mrs. Sandler mind that?”

“Don’t worry about her. Just go do your work.”

“Yes, boss!” she answered.

Meanwhile, Scarlett had only slept for about four hours when Erica came to wake her up,

“What’s up?” Scarlett asked in a daze.

“Is Eve Crawford your friend? She is here.” Erica said.

When she heard that, Scarlett immediately got up and asked, “Who is here?”

Scarlett’s bedroom door was pushed open, and a tall woman in a gray coat stood against the door. She took off her sunglasses and revealed her delicate and charming face. It was Eve Crawford

“It’s me, Scarlett!” she said.

Scarlett threw herself on the bed again and felt that her nightmare started again.

“Hey, what are you doing? You’d better get up quickly.” Eve said as she got on her bed to shake her awake.

“Just leave me alone. I just wish I was dead right now!” Scarlett moaned.

“You are talking nonsense! Since when have you become such a negative person, Scarlett?” Eve asked.

“It’s because of you. Didn’t I help you get your new identity? What are you doing here? Why don’t you escape to Prague or Mexico City? Why are you here?” Scarlett stared at her with her dark circles.

Eve just lay down next to Scarlett and said, “Well, I just received the latest news that you have become a single woman again, and I’m worried that you are not used to being single, so I’m here to help you!”

“It’s not necessary. I’m doing just fine.” Scarlett said curtly. After that, she asked very seriously, “Has Damon found you? You didn’t tell him that I was involved in crafting your escape plan, did you?”

“Look at you, you are such a coward!” Eve said.

“Well, without Francis’s protection, I think it will be better for me to keep a low profile,” Scarlett said.

“Don’t worry. Anyway, he can’t hurt you. Rest assured, my escape plan was perfect, so I won’t drag you down.” Eve said as she brushed her hair.

“Well, I hope so. You’d better leave now. I don’t want Damon to know about you being here.” Scarlett lay down again to sleep.

“Hey, I’m here to make money with you, how can you shut me out like this?” Eve said.

“What?” she asked as she opened her eyes.

“I did some research about a certain project, and I think it’s a good one. Would you like to do it with me?” Eve smiled.

Scarlett confessed honestly, “I’m a poor student now, no money and no relationships. Do you still want me to work with you?”

“Well, I have money and relationships both, and all I want from you is you,” Eve said.Content © NôvelDrama.Org 2024.

Scarlett sat up with the quilt in her arms and asked, “What project? Let me hear about it.”

“A restaurant.” she beamed.

“A restaurant?” Scarlett gasped.

“Yeah, I’ll start it with some crowdfunding, targeting the students at your school. In that way, the restaurant’s shareholders will be the students of your school; it needs about two hundred students to get going. Besides you and me, we still need three persons to constitute the core board of directors. The members of the board will be considered on the basis of previous contributions. We can turn the target around us into the shareholder, one after another, but we have to make sure that the shareholder is a student at your school. After they graduate, they gotta sell out their shares. We can choose to purchase the shares, but it will be better if they sell them to that freshman or sophomore because then there’s some young blood always at the head of the enterprise. I have looked into it, and the area around your school will be the best place to start this project. What do you think about it? Are you in?” Eve said seriously.

Scarlett said, “Wow, it sounds like a good idea. Is there a successful example?”

“Of course. These days crowdfunding is the most appropriate way to start a business. It’s practically foolproof. We just have to get started before someone else has the same bright idea, you know what I mean?” Scarlett just exclaimed, “Wow, I’m impressed. You are really making progress.”

“You’ve misjudged me, alright? I’m not an idiot, okay? Would you wanna join me or not?” Eve frowned.

Scarlett stood up and said decisively, “I’m in.”

Eve pushed Scarlett into the shiny kitchen. It was outfitted with brand new appliances and even an industrial-sized fridge. Eve wanted Scarlett to be the head chef at their restaurant.

“So you want me to be the chef, and you to be the cashier?” Scarlett looked at her helplessly.

“Well, I’ve done all the preparatory work, and I couldn’t find any decent chefs within our budget… but you’re a pretty good cook, aren’t you? I think you’ll be great as our head chef!”

“Well, I came all the way here to study and not to work as a chef, okay?”
