Chapter 655 Here Comes Veronica (18)
Veronica wasn't in the mood to daydream as her colleague did.
With a prompt decision, Veronica hurriedly went to hide behind her team leader, Madilynn Krueger.
By no means did she want to run into Raymond. Otherwise, her colleagues would go crazy and wouldn't stop blathering over it if they knew that she was working as a maid in Raymond's house.
Besides, she had been working for Raymond for only three months. If she revealed it, would Raymond think that she had breached the contract? If so, she needed to pay ten times the compensation. After careful consideration, Veronica decided to pretend to not know Raymond.
Madilynn was also Raymond's loyal fan.
Noticing Raymond stood behind her, Madilynn took a glance at him and shouted excitedly, "Hello, Mr. Bryson, I'm Madilynn Krueger. I like you very much and I am very happy to see you. You look even more handsome in a real person than in the newspaper. May I ask if I can shake hands with you?"
Raymond originally came for Veronica.
He was stunned for a moment while being interrupted by someone else.
But in hindsight, why did he want to see Veronica especially when there were clients waiting for him upstairs?
Raymond ignored Madilynn and walked straight into the elevator behind him.
Seeing Raymond's indifferent expression, Madilynn grabbed Veronica's arm and gushed, "My goodness, Veronica! Did you see that? Raymond looked so aloof but so handsome. I was completely swept off his feet!"
Veronica was dumbfounded.
Madilynn was the leader of Veronica's team. She should stay calm on any occasion.
After Veronica complained a few words, Madilynn immediately got ahold of herself.
"The elevator is here. Let's hurry up and meet up with the other colleagues!" Madilynn maintained her image and said.
Tsk, what a capricious woman!
After Veronica and the others arrived at the private room upstairs, some colleagues couldn't wait to knock on the door and go in.
Seeing Veronica, Augustine warmly walked to Veronica's side and affectionately placed his hand on Veronica's shoulder. He then pulled a chair and pushed Veronica to the seat. "Come. Veronica will be sitting here!"
If the touch of her waist in the hall just now was an accident, then this time Augustine touched her shoulder on purpose. What was more, Augustine arranged her seat next to his own.
Veronica frowned.
Augustine was fast. When Veronica wanted to push Augustine's hand away, Augustine had already done it.
The other colleagues of the firm saw what Augustine did and exchanged a look at each other without saying anything.
They all knew Augustine was a little perverted.Têxt belongs to NôvelDrama.Org.
However, Augustine had a very good wife who funded and set up the translation firm for him.
Although Augustine was lecherous, he had a sense of propriety. He would only lay his hands on interns and those who had not graduated from law school. Because they were simple and credulous. In addition those people who had just entered society did not know anything. Augustine could easily deceive them with a high salary and lure them into his evil lair.
One wanted money while Augustine wanted to satisfy his lust. It was consensual. Meanwhile, when they got tired, they would peacefully end this unhealthy relationship.
Augustine didn't dare to harass the old employees in the company. If he accidentally left some evidence that was exposed to his wife, his life at home wouldn't be easy from then on.
Veronica was the most beautiful among all the newcomers. Augustine noticed her as soon as she came to work in the translation firm.
It was a part-time job that required people to work only two days on the weekend with a salary that was more than three thousand yuan a month, which was good enough for many people.
However, Augustine later found out that Veronica's family also owned a company. Offering her a high salary wouldn't impress her.
Yesterday, because Veronica's family went bankrupt and her home was confiscated, Veronica applied salary in advance. Augustine generously gave it to her.
Veronica was now kicked out of her home, and she needed help. Augustine believed that it was the best time to make a move.
Veronica didn't seem to be repulsed by Augustine's actions. Thus, Augustine became bolder.
He wondered if he took the initiative this evening and gave Veronica some benefit, Veronica would fall for it.
...
During the dinner, the colleagues kept urging Veronica to drink.
Veronica couldn't refuse and drank two cups of white wine.
The cup was small, but each could contain at least 100 milliliters of white wine.
The white wine was strong. Veronica didn't feel anything at first. However, after a while, she felt dizzy and her face was hot.
She seemed to be a little drunk.
During dinner, Veronica drank some other beverages and got up. "I need to use the bathroom. Don't wait for me!"
With that, Veronica left the room.
Augustine spotted Veronica's flushed cheeks and shifty eyes. She looked extremely beautiful.
Augustine suddenly stood up and said, "I'm going to use the bathroom as well."
After Augustine left, everyone gave each other a tacit look and then continued to eat.
There were some things that they had better just watch.
Till today, Augustine's wife didn't find Augustine cheated on her. Those girls were so enamored and were willing to do these things with Augustine. Therefore, they did not want to get involved. And they didn't want to be called a rat.
After leaving the private room, Veronica looked up at the signs in the hotel and frowned because the sign said the bathroom was a little far. She needed to take a turn to get there. But Veronica still followed the signs and walked towards the bathroom.
Before Veronica took a turn, Augustine happened to walk out of the private room behind her.
He found the direction where Veronica left. He smiled and touched his lips. He patted his clothes gently and tightened the belt around his waist. Then, he went to catch up with her. Veronica walked out of the bathroom and was ready to meet her colleagues.
However, just as she was about to take a turn, a man jumped out and blocked Veronica's path.
Veronica was startled.
Seeing the smile on Augustine's face, Veronica had a bad feeling in her heart.
"Mr. Fleming, aren't you in the private room? Why are you here?"
