Chapter 215: Chapter 215



.

Jayden’s gaze landed on her.

Mr. Nelson?

When Victoria turned around to look clearly at the person in the doorway, her whole body froze, she was lost and didn’t know what to do.

Mr. Brown did not notice anything unusual about Victoria. He got up from his seat, and walked over to Jayden, “Mr. Nelson have you come for lunch too? Let’s eat together.”

They had worked together before, it could be considered that they had some relationship.

Saying this, he called out to the few people next to Jayden, “Come, I have already chosen my seat here, it is by the window, you can see the view while enjoying the food, how perfect.”

The few people couldn’t bring themselves to make a decision, instead they turned their gaze to Jayden, as if questioning his opinion.

Jayden slowly withdrew his gaze, and said, “Let’s go.”

Mr. Brown quickly stepped forward to lead the way. When he reached his seat, he helped Jayden remove his seat.

They both sat down, and Mr. Brown had the waiter add some dishes.

Victoria was very uncomfortable, her hands, which were placed on the table, were clenched.

She hadn’t thought she would meet Jayden here, she didn’t even dare to raise her head.

Someone teased Mr. Brown, “He has a beautiful lady accompanying him, wouldn’t we be disturbing him?”

“Exactly, where did Mr. Brown find this beautiful lady, why didn’t I see her before?”.

Victoria raised her head and coincidentally at that moment, Jayden was looking at her.

Their gazes met in the air.

Victoria wanted to explain, but there were too many people around, so she couldn’t say anything.

Jayden had said earlier that he didn’t want anyone to know about their relationship.

She didn’t dare say anything, even more she didn’t dare talk to Jayden, fearing it would attract attention from others.

She looked at Mr. Brown, “I really have something to do, I wish to leave first.”

Mr. Brown waved his hand, motioning her to sit down, “Don’t be nervous, don’t listen to the nonsense they say, stay quiet to eat, you can’t leave on an empty stomach.”

After settling Victoria in, Mr. Brown looked at the guy who had grabbed her hair a moment ago, and replied, “I have a wife, do I look like someone who fools around? This lady…”

He pointed to Victoria, “My benefactor.”

“It’s not that you don’t know, it’s very hard to talk to all the old guys in the company. I’ve wanted to restructure for a long time, but they’re like stones in a well, as smelly as they are hard, blocking my way, not letting me get started. This time, this lady… What’s your name?”

When Mr. Brown wanted to introduce Victoria, he realized he didn’t even know her name.

At this point, he only realized how hasty he had been in the meeting, he had appointed a person he didn’t even know the name of, and she had only been with the company for two months as vice president.

When Mr. Brown asked this question, Jayden’s expression changed slightly.

Because even he didn’t know what the name of the woman who had stayed with him for two months in the same house was.

“Victoria.” She lowered her eyes.

Jayden raised his eyebrows slightly, so her name was Victoria, it sounded like a very feminine name.

“Victoria? What a great name.” Mr. Brown praised her, “Today’s women’s names are all very common and old-fashioned. Victoria, soft and graceful, sounds very poetic and special, sounds great. But we’re digressing.” Mr. Brown laughed, “It’s her, after her speech, she managed to talk back to all the elders in my company, until they couldn’t say anything else.”

Mr. Brown rose from his seat, and formally introduced her, “This lady, is the new vice president of my company. In the future she could be my most useful assistant. She is farsighted and capable, although she is a pretty lady, her capabilities are even better than her face.”

Mr. Brown was truly in awe of Victoria’s capabilities.

Especially now during the meeting, she had managed to get everyone else’s words stuck in her throat.

“Really?”

Everyone’s gaze was on Victoria.

WX Machinery had been filled with glory, no one was unaware of them, it was just that now that there were more and more machinery manufacturers, the impact on them was huge. Mr. Brown had always wanted change, but the old staff at his company had always disagreed. Restructuring required a lot of money and time, they were not willing to work for it. What they wanted was just the peace of now, living from day to day, with the money safely tucked away in their pockets.

Even though they weren’t like they were in the past, there was still money to be made.

Mr. Brown had wanted the change from the past, but because of the pressure from these people, there was no one who could profit from it, so he had not proceeded.

Everyone was confused. She was a lady, how did she manage to suppress these elders?

“No, Mr. Brown, you are praising me too much.” Victoria really felt very uncomfortable under everyone’s gaze. In this environment, she didn’t even have an appetite to eat anything.

Even if she did manage to eat something, she was afraid of getting indigestion.

“Mr. Brown, I really have something to attend to.” This time Victoria’s attitude was firm, she stood up as she spoke, obviously wanting to leave.

Mr. Brown realized that she insisted on leaving, if he insisted on making her stay, he feared there would be a rift between them. He wanted to retain this talent, to help him restructure the company. So he agreed, “How about this, I’ll give you this toast and then I’ll get someone to send you back, can you take it?”.

Victoria thought about it for a second and nodded her head. She had better not offend this man, she still had work to do at the company in the future. Besides, he had already allowed her to leave, it was just a matter of a toast.

Victoria picked up the wine glass on the table and clinked it with Mr. Brown’s. “You are my vanguard, the road to restructuring must be hard, if you have any needs, or if you encounter any difficulties, let me know.” Mr. Brown was generous, to be able to run such a large company, he was indeed not a simple person.

“I thank Mr. Brown for giving me this opportunity, I dare not be his best soldier, for the company to enter a new era, it would take everyone’s effort. Even ants know that unity is strength, more so we as humans. In the future, let everyone work hard together.”

“Well said.” Mr. Brown gave a thumbs up to Victoria, “Everyone raise a toast.” Mr. Brown downed his white wine.

Victoria could drink a little alcohol, but this time, as she smelled the white wine, she felt dizzy, and almost felt like throwing up.

Mr. Brown looked at her and said, “You have to drink this glass of wine.”

To get out of this situation, Victoria gritted her teeth and swallowed the wine, the liquor burned her throat. She frowned and put the glass down, “That’s it, I’ll go first.”

“Alright, I’ll have the driver take you, where are you staying?” asked Mr. Brown politely.

Victoria’s expression changed, she quickly waved her hand, “No need, no need, I’ll go on my own.”

She wouldn’t dare say where she lived.

Finishing her words, she had already pulled back her chair and rose from her seat, her steps were quick, fearing that Mr. Brown would change his mind and call her back.

Leaving the restaurant, she stopped by the roadside to call a car. Luckily everything went well, but she still felt a twinge of worry in her heart, anxious that Jayden would be unhappy about what happened today.

After all, she wasn’t a free spirit now, letting her roam free and work freely was considered giving her enormous tolerance. It wouldn’t do for her to bring them trouble.

After leaving dinner, her anxious emotions continued even as she arrived at the villa.

Lucky Jayden hadn’t returned yet. He inhaled deeply, adjusted his feelings and went upstairs, no longer having an appetite for food. He went to the bathroom and filled the bathtub with hot water, he wanted to soak in the tub to relax.

A hot bath was the best way to relax.

When the bathtub was full, he took off his clothes and stepped into the water, slowly immersing himself in the water. From the surface of the water, a graceful body could be seen, partially seen.

It was a feeling of indescribable attractiveness.

After about half an hour, he felt his whole body warming up, his anxiety had also dissipated.

She stood up, lifted her legs to get out of the tub and reached out for the towel. Suddenly she slipped and her whole body fell to the floor.

He reflexively wanted to grab something to support himself, but the sink was too slippery. He didn’t manage to grab it, but on the other hand he dragged all the bottles to the floor.

A bang sounded and the bottles rolled on the floor.

He lay on the floor, his whole body aching, especially his throbbing lower body. He felt warmth between his legs, he lowered his head with difficulty and realized there was blood.

Her face paled, she was not having her period, in fact, she had realized that she had not had her period for two months.

Being here, she hadn’t been able to relax, so she had forgotten about it.

But now, thinking about it carefully… she panicked.

She grabbed the bath towel and covered herself, calling for the maid.

She was upstairs in the bathroom, and the soundproofing in the house was very good, the maid downstairs couldn’t hear her calling for help at all.

In the restaurant, all the businessmen were gathered, and naturally their conversation was flowing. In the middle, Jayden excused himself, and left the dinner.

Returning to the villa, he thought for a moment before heading upstairs. He raised his hand and knocked on the door, but did not push it open.

He stood outside and said to her, “That Mr. Brown had noticed something was wrong with the company for a long time, he had always wanted to restructure, but all the old staff in the company were unwilling. That’s why he hadn’t been able to start. If he wanted to start, he would need someone to rush in front of him to block the wrath of these old guys. Now that he has pushed you in front of him, this has undoubtedly made you the person these old men will use to vent their anger. This is very unbeneficial for you. If you need a job, I can help you find one, if you think you can handle this on your own, then I won’t force you.”

I just wanted to remind her to be careful, that Mr. Brown was using her.

There was still no sound from inside. Jayden paused for a second, and prepared to turn around to go downstairs. Just then, a crashing sound passed from the room.

Jayden’s footsteps stopped, the sounds had ceased, he thought he had misheard, so he thought nothing of it.

He continued to move. At that moment, Victoria used all her strength and shouted, “I’m in the house…”

Jayden frowned, and turned around. He knocked on the door, “What’s wrong?”

Victoria clutched the towel tightly to her body, her eyes bloodshot, she was struggling internally. She wasn’t a three year old, she knew what was happening to herself Everything had happened too suddenly, she felt anxious, scared and fearful.

With a hoarse voice she said, “I’ve fallen, I can’t move.”

It was not that she could not move, but that she did not dare to move, she realized that once she moved, her belly ached.

So he didn’t dare move.

Jayden pushed open the bedroom door, in the room was empty, only the bathroom door was closed, and it was lit from inside.

He walked over and knocked on the bathroom door, “Are you in?”.

Through the frosted glass door, Victoria looked at the fogged shadow, tears in her eyes rolled down.

“I…I’m here.”

Her voice was tearful.

Because she was afraid.

She wasn’t sure what she was afraid of, whether she was afraid Jayden would see her naked body, or whether she was afraid she was pregnant. She wasn’t sure what it was, but she felt very uneasy inside.

Jayden pushed on the door, because the bathroom door was locked, she didn’t manage to push it open. Knowing that she must have locked it while bathing, he hit it very hard, he didn’t think much of it at the time.

He was only concerned that she might be in danger.

The moment the door opened, he noticed that the woman in the bathroom was not wearing any clothes, and was lying on the floor, with her bath towel covering her private parts, and there was blood on the floor ….
