Billionaire’s Mistress

Oarlan’s POV

When I came back to the club in the evening, the first thing I did was to hand my phone to the CEO and open the headline, “Mr. president, you are so brilliant. After the photos were posted online this noon, they immediately became the hot search. The stock of the Baker Group has fallen sharply this afternoon. I have received news from them that the major shareholders of the Baker Group are going to hold a board meeting and dismiss the position of chairman of Nigel. At present, all the news media are reporting this matter, and the Discipline Inspection Department of the government has also taken action…”

With a meaningful smile on his face, Edmund said, “government officials and real estate businessmen gather to gamble, and there are pictures. Who would like to miss such explosive news?”

“That’s right. To be honest, thanks to Miss Leanna. After all, it’s not appropriate for both of us to deal with this matter. She happened to take our place.”

“Humph…” he snorted with a faint smile on his face.

Seeing this, I shut up immediately and didn’t dare to mention Leanna again.

Leanna’s POV

That night, I had a nightmare all night.

When I woke up, it was already dawn. My back was covered with cold sweat.

After getting up, I changed my work clothes and came to the living room. I saw that Edmund and Oarlan two people changed into formal clothes and were about to go out with their suitcases in their hands.

“Are you going out?” I stood at the door and asked in a daze.

“Mr. Edmund has something urgent to deal with and needs to go back to City Y. You must be tired these days. You can take this opportunity to have a good rest for a few days.” As Oarlan said, she pushed the door open and Edmund walked out.

“Will you come back?” I couldn’t help but ask.

“What? Are you reluctant to leave us? Don’t worry. I will definitely come back. I still have something to deal with here. As for Mr. Edmund, I’m not sure. Maybe when you are going to pay him back one billion, he will be willing to come here again in person.” Oarlan blinked at me and said. Then he followed Edmund and disappeared from my sight.

After the two of them left, I closed the door, turned around and went back to my room. My body fell heavily on the bed behind me.

One billion!

How can I pay it back?

Shall I really sell myself to him as a housekeeper for the rest of her life?

No!

I don’t want it!

After they left, I was free.

I had a nap in my room this morning. At about ten o’clock, I went downstairs to have lunch in the staff canteen.

When I arrived at the restaurant, I saw many people there.

As usual, I went straight to the window for food and found that many people looked at me strangely and whispered.

What happened?

I looked down at her uniform curiously. It was neat and nothing special.

After getting the meal, I turned around and was about to find a seat to sit down. Not far away, Cecily waved at me. “Miss Leanna, here.”

Seeing this, I immediately walked towards her.

“Cecily, are you on the day shift today?”

Cecily pulled me aside and looked around. “Okay, let’s go, manager. Let’s eat outside. The air is better.”

I sensed that she was implying something, so I nodded and followed her to the balcony outside.

After sitting down beside a parterre on the balcony, I asked, “what happened today? I feel like everyone is looking at me. What happened?”

“Don’t you know that? Now the whole club has spread that you seduced Mr. Edmund, who is in the presidential suite, but he refused. It’s really annoying.” Said Cecily.

“What?” Hearing this, I was so angry that I stood up. The plate in my hand fell to the ground. I clenched my fists and gritted my teeth. “Who said that?”

“I don’t know exactly, but I first heard from Fitch of the Housekeeping Department. Manager, do you think that it’s because Venus is jealous that you can serve Mr. Edmund that she spread the rumor? If you really seduce him, how can he refuse you?” Cecily argued.

“Venus?” It suddenly occurred to me that we met in the elevator yesterday.

It must be her. Maybe she thought I cried yesterday and misunderstood that I had an affair with Edmund.

Venus is very smart. It is said that I seduced Edmund on purpose, but Edmund refused me.

In this way, even if Edmund heard this, he would not say anything.

After all, I was the only one whose reputation was damaged, while Edmund was portrayed as a victim of harassment. No one would gossip about him.

“Cecily, listen to me. Mr. Edmund and I are just the simplest guests and housekeeper. He doesn’t treat me well, and I only do my part to him. Don’t talk nonsense, okay?” I told Cecily seriously.Property © of NôvelDrama.Org.

Cecily nodded heavily and said, “don’t worry, manager. I have promised you that I won’t talk nonsense.”

“Okay, you eat first. I’m leaving.” Without waiting for her response, I turned around and walked into the room.

Venus, do you really think I’m a pushover?

How dare you spread rumors outside and insult me like that.

Today I will let her know that I am not that easy to be bullied!

I took the elevator to the office area of the club on the five floor.

I went straight to the Housekeeping Department. As soon as I entered, I saw that Venus was gossiping with The vice manager of the Finance Department, Joan. The two of them smiled happily.

“To tell you the truth, I always thought that Mr. Edmund had a crush on her, so he made her Butler. It was not until yesterday when I saw her crying in the elevator that I realized that she had a hard time with Mr. Edmund. She deserved it. She was daydreaming that she could marry a rich man after entering the presidential suite…”

“I didn’t expect her to be so aloof all the time. It turns out that she has been pretending to be a tough woman.” Joan said with a disdainful look, following the words of Venus.

Hearing the conversation between the two people, I was so angry that I trembled.

“Venus!” I shouted and walked towards her. “Make it clear to me. Which eye did you see that I seduced Mr. Edmund?”

Venus was stunned at first, but soon calmed down. “Miss Leanna, what are you talking about? I don’t understand.”

“Stop pretending. I heard what you said just now. I really didn’t expect you to be such a despicable person and have such dirty thoughts. Do you think all the waiters who have served the rich want to find a sugar daddy?” My words were fierce.

“Leanna, don’t talk like a bitch. Don’t you know what kind of person you are?” Venus said in a strange tone.

Joan tried to persuade her, “Venus, forget it. Don’t quarrel anymore. If others see you two quarrel like this, it will have a bad impact on you and you will suffer losses.”

“Joan, you’re right. I shouldn’t have argued with her. After all, she has a wide range of contacts. Today she went out to the sea with this rich man, and tomorrow she will play chess with that rich man. ” Venus said in a sarcastic tone.

“What are you talking about? Go to sea and play cards?” I was stunned.

How did she know that I went out of the sea yesterday and played cards?

Only the three of us, Edmund and Oarlan, know about it?

The rest of the people present yesterday had nothing to do with the club.

“What? Do you still want to deny it? Your photos have been on the headline of the news.” Venus looked at me sarcastically and continued to taunt, “but you are really a jinx. Whoever comes across who is unlucky, your rich businessman will be in big trouble now.”

I’m totally confused now. What’s going on?

Why was I on the headline?

“What are you doing here?” Just as I was having a big fight with her, Alvin came out of the general manager’s office and shouted at us.

?

“Mr. Alvin, please have a look. It’s not that I want to quarrel with her. It’s her who came to quarrel with me…” Venus complained, pointing at me.

My mind is now full of news headlines. I don’t have time to quarrel with Venus anymore. I turn around and run out.

“Miss Leanna, where are you going?” Alvin shouted behind me.

I ignored him. I just rushed out of the office area, took the elevator and went straight to the presidential suite.

After entering the room, i locked the door, took out her mobile phone with my trembling hands and opened the news website.

Sure enough, on the most conspicuous front page, there was a photo of me playing chess with that man on behalf of Edmund yesterday.

How could this be?

Who… Took this photo?

I studied the photo carefully and found that it was exactly the position where Edmund sat yesterday?

When I was playing chess yesterday morning, I remembered that Edmund was sitting aside and playing with his mobile phone.

Now it seemed that he was actually taking photos in secret. But did he really do it? Why did he do that?
