Unexpected Encounter with my Boss (Vincent and Tiffany) novel Chapter 12

"Hello, Kelly."

Kelly's voice came through. She sounded urgent. "Tiffany, where are you and Mr. Lewis now?"

"Did something happen?"

"There's an urgent document here that needs Mr. Lewis' signature." Kelly's tone sounded serious.

Tiffany glanced at the door. "Do you want me to inform Mr. Lewis about it now then?"

"No." Kelly said, "I know Mr. Lewis is negotiating an important business deal today, so I wouldn't want him to get distracted. Send me the address, and I'll head over to meet you guys. I'll hand the document over to him to sign."

Considering the fact that this deal involved billions of dollars, it was indeed extremely important. Without hesitation, Tiffany sent their location to Kelly.

After that, she lay down on the bed and fell asleep.

…

The sky had already turned dark by the time Tiffany woke up. Vincent and Alex were about to leave the suite when Tiffany came out of the room.

After tidying herself up, Tiffany followed them.

Vincent stopped and turned to her. "You don't have to come."

Tiffany was confused.

"There will only be men during the dinner. There's bound to be some drunken debauchery."

Alex explained what Vincent meant,saying, "Mr. Lewis is worried that you might be taken advantage of."

Tiffany felt warmth spread through her heart. At the same time, she was also concerned. "But Mr. Wilson said he would see me tonight. Wouldn't it be rude if I don't go?"

Her main concern was how it might affect the billion-dollar deal.

"It wouldn't," Vincent said confidently.

He always seemed to be so sure and in control of everything. Although his words were gentle, they were reassuring.

…

After they got into the elevator, Alex couldn't help but comment, "How is it possible for someone as innocent as Tiffany to exist at all? She actually wanted to come just because Mr. Wilson said he would see her tonight. Won't she be an easy target for scammers?"

Vincent shot a glance at her. "She just has a sense of responsibility. She's worried that she might offend Mr. Wilson, which could bring losses to the company."

"I know." Alex nodded. "I just think that she's too innocent and naive."

These days, people could be very cunning. Many of the young women new to the workforce tended to have ulterior motives.

They would do anything and even go as far as using their bodies to get ahead. After seeing many such cases, nobody would be surprised anymore if something corrupt like that happened.

It was quite refreshing to encounter a pure-hearted woman like Tiffany. It would make anyone's heart soften.

Vincent was silent for a moment. After heading out of the elevator, he suddenly turned around and said to Alex, "You're right."

Alex was caught off guard. "What?"

"She's too naive." After Vincent said that, he smiled a little.

Alex stared at Vincent's face. There seemed to be a hint of it in his smile.

…

Henry and his team were already sitting inside. When they saw Vincent come in, they got up to welcome him.

But Henry remained seated. Glancing behind Vincent, Henry appeared bored. "Why isn't Ms. Lloyd here?"

Alex answered, "Tiffany isn't feeling well. Mr. Lewis was considerate enough to tell her to get some rest in her room."

"Not feeling well?" Henry snickered. "She seemed perfectly fine to me earlier this afternoon. Is she actually not well, or is she just being disrespectful toward me?"

Vincent pulled a chair out to sit down. "This is a misunderstanding, Mr. Wilson. She's merely one of the many regular employees of my company. She doesn't deserve your attention."

As he spoke, he poured two full glasses of wine. "Let me show my respect for you instead."

Vincent downed both glasses of white wine.
