Contract Marriage: The Replacement Groom novel Chapter 286

286 Visiting her husband. 

At Maverick’s company… 1 

The back car was stopped at the huge gate by the guards who wouldn’t let them in without showing 

their cards. 

Code 5 wound down the car window and passed his ID to the head guard. After seeing his ID and knowing his identity, the guard returned the card with both hands and bowed before instructing the gate to be opened. 

The black car entered the huge compound and sped straight to the massive skyscraper that was up ahead. 

Thank God he didn’t create a mess, his dead body would have been lying on the floor right now. That was one of the most powerful hidden guards who didn’t need to seek permission from Maverick before killing or punishing other workers. 

The car stopped at the underground parking lot and Jeslyn got down after Code 5 opened the car 

door for her. 

Walking in front like the boss lady she was, no one would dare to ascribe her to an Assistant, despite dressing like a sophisticated Assistant. 

At the front desk with two young ladies; beautiful, sexy, and elegant Receptionists eyed the three men and ‘Assistant‘ walking towards them. 

The ‘Assistant‘ looked too classy to be a mere worker and they wondered which company she works for. 

“Good day, Ma’am… gentlemen,” one of the Receptionists stepped out from behind the desk and bowed slightly with her hands elegantly placed on her stomach. 

She smiled with her sharp eyes on the ‘Assistant‘ wearing a black pencil skirt, a white shirt that had the first few buttons opened but was decent enough to not reveal her boobs, a pair of black pencil heels, and huge sunglasses. 

Her thick bang covered her forehead and brows, almost reaching her eyes. No matter how hard the Receptionist tried to make sense of who the ‘Assistant‘ in front of her was, she couldn’t see past the professional disguise that didn’t take much effort to achieve. 

Never in a million years would she have thought it was Jeslyn, the Just–debuted artist they were just singing her praises a while back. 

“Welcome to THE FUTURE, how may we help you?” Her sweet smile was still maintained on her 

well–defined face. 

Jeslyn didn’t know what Maverick was thinking when he changed his Empire’s name to THE FUTURE. The name sounded like he was proclaiming himself to be the future. 

Her eyes were on the Receptionist all through with different thoughts running through her mind. Her husband has such beautiful and professional ladies around him, yet he chose a stupid person like Vera. His taste in women, no, his taste in Vera is so bad. 

If she said Women, then she’ll be one of them and Jeslyn believes she’s the best partner for her husband. Valen is proof of that. 

“I’m here for your boss,” she answered with a deadpan expression. 

“Oh? Ahem…” The receptionist coughed on her first with her head turned to the side. “Do you have an appointment, Ma’am?” 

“Ah, no I don’t.” 

The Receptionist frowned slightly, almost invisible. Then how did they pass the tight security outside the gate?” she thought. 

“I’m sorry ma’am, I can’t allow you in without an appointment.” She looked sorry when she said that. 

Jeslyn gave a slight nod, “But your boss wants to see me.” 

The Receptionist looked at her incredulously. Of course, she can’t believe that lie. A lot of ladies had done more than this in the past, including Mulan, so she wasn’t surprised. 

“Oh, ok, please hold on for a minute.” The lady went back to the desk and placed a call to the CEO’s office. After speaking to someone, she returned to Jeslyn and smiled. 

“I’m sorry ma’am, your information might be wrong. Please, check in another time after you’ve confirmed.” 

“Oh, then, can I present this?” Jeslyn collected Code 5’s ID and stretched it to the Receptionist. 

The Receptionist received it and checked it. “Please, ma’am, let me confirm with the system.” She smiled with her lips sealed before heading back to the desk with the ID card. 

The lady has to be extra careful. It was because of her professionalism that she was the most respected Receptionist on the list of ten Receptionists in the company. 

After she had confirmed the authenticity of the card, she returned it and bowed, handing it back to Jeslyn with both hands. “Thank you for your cooperation, kindly take the first elevator and someone will be on the 50th floor to take you to the CEO’s office…” 

“I know my way around. I’ll take her there.” Code 5 butted in. They wouldn’t have had to go through this process if Jeslyn wasn’t going to surprise her husband. 

“Ok, sure,” the Receptionist replied. Although she hasn’t seen this face before, from his information, he was among the few who are supposed to know their way around the company, indeed. 

“Thank you,” Jeslyn smiled faintly but couldn’t understand why the CEO’s office would be on the 50th floor when the building has 230 floors.
