48 -48: The Secretary’s Little Tricks

Yusuf Zuck really wasn’t in the mood for jokes tonight; one reason was that he was preoccupied, the other was because Lara Tuff wasn’t home tonight.

With only a man and a woman in the deep of the night, it didn’t seem appropriate to jest around with Ruth Wilcox, and that’s why he became all serious.

After a brief walk around the second floor, even taking a glance at Ruth Wilcox’s boudoir, he turned and headed downstairs.

Ruth Wilcox, too, didn’t say anything, nor did she pose any questions.

She was simply too exhausted and sleepy, her head filled with matters from the company, and so she also hoped to rest early.

After descending the stairs, Yusuf dialed Samuel Ross to remind him to be vigilant tonight.

After all, Sara Zuck was still staying at the hotel, and if Otis Quinn decided to play dirty and attempt a midnight raid to seize someone, it would be too late for regrets.

Those who mixed in the society couldn’t be measured by normal rationale, so caution was paramount.

Samuel Ross had already considered this and had made arrangements early on.

…

The night passed without incident, and early the next morning, Yusuf contacted Sara, instructing her to remain in the hotel and not to return to school for any clothing or such; she was to wait in the hotel.

And being astute, Sara understood her brother’s intent and hadn’t planned to leave at all.

At seven-thirty in the morning, Ruth Wilcox got up.

Although she had declared her intention to sleep in, with her mind preoccupied, how could she possibly sleep soundly?

“Ms.

Wilcox, are you up?

Come down for breakfast before it gets cold,” Yusuf had already prepared breakfast, warm milk and fried eggs.

“Oh?

You made breakfast?” Wearing her robe, Ruth appeared at the top of the stairs and smiled, “Since when do you cook breakfast?”

“Ms.

Wilcox, mind your image, please,” Yusuf squinted his eyes.

At this moment, Ruth was very seductive and fiery, the silken gown accentuating her perfectly curved lines.

Yusuf dared not use telekinesis to survey Ruth’s body; these days, he had been preserving his principles, but now Ruth had appeared in her nightgown?

Wasn’t she afraid of becoming a rascal?

“Ah…” Alarmed by Yusuf’s reminder, Ruth immediately snapped fully awake.

Since she stood above and Yusuf below, it was easy for him to glimpse more than intended under her nightgown, which sent her scurrying back to her room like she’d stepped on an insect.

Yusuf laughed heartily as he watched Ruth’s embarrassed escape, finding the elegant CEO had her girlish moments too!

A few minutes later, Ruth came downstairs, her cheeks still flushed, and she glared at Yusuf as if ready to devour him!

“Eat quickly.

I didn’t see anything, honestly, didn’t dare to look!” Yusuf pushed the breakfast towards Ruth.

“Really didn’t see anything?” Ruth raised an eyebrow.

“Really didn’t.

The angle wasn’t right.

Or we could do a replay, see if I can catch a glimpse?” Yusuf chuckled mischievously.

“You wouldn’t dare!” Ruth glared.

“Of course not, of course not.

Eat up.

How about after this we take a detour on the way to the office to pick up my sister?” Yusuf swiftly changed the topic.

“Sure.” Ruth nodded, having no objections to that.

“By the way, I never asked you, what’s the business in Shanghai this time?

Of course, if it’s a corporate secret, you don’t have to tell me.”

“It’s not exactly a secret; others in the industry are aware,” Ruth said as she ate her fried eggs.

“Parker Group has a plot of land in Sanya that they plan to develop diversely, which will include a resort-style hotel.

It’s possible that Parker Group is considering a strategic shift in their investment focus, which is why the resort hotel is open for public tender.”

“Since returning to the country to take over as CEO of Fengdu, I haven’t made substantial achievements, so securing the bid this time could earn me some points within the group, and further expansion will begin here.”

“Parker Group?” Yusuf raised an eyebrow, “The Nash family’s Parker Group?”

“Yes.

You know about them?” Ruth smiled.

“Seen it on the news.” Yusuf bowed his head, quickly finishing off what was left of breakfast without further mention of Parker Group.

Of course, Ruth didn’t see the flash of disgust in his eyes when he lowered his head for a moment.

Not disgust towards Ruth, but towards the name “Parker.”

At seven forty-five in the morning, after finishing breakfast, the two drove to the company.

It wasn’t just Yusuf and Ruth heading to Shanghai, but also the company’s planning team, a total of more than ten people.

Ruth had announced earlier that if they secured the resort project, the planning team would receive a hefty bonus and a free trip to Shanghai among other perks, so this time the company was unified in their effort to land the Parker project.

As Yusuf drove up to the hotel entrance, Sara was already waiting, looking around eagerly.

“Sara, over here, get in!” Yusuf rolled down the window and gestured to Sara.

Sara was a bit stunned.

She knew her brother worked as security for the company, but how come he was driving such a nice car now?

The car windows were tinted; she couldn’t see if someone else was inside, so she hesitated.

Just as she was sizing up the luxurious car, the back door of the A8 suddenly opened, and out stepped an extremely beautiful woman with an air of elegance, wearing high heels and sunglasses, smiling as she exited the vehicle.

Yusuf stayed in the driver’s seat and didn’t alight, but he was taken aback when Ruth suddenly got out of the car.

Ruth Wilcox was actually personally there to pick up his sister!

“Hello, my name is Ruth Wilcox, you must be Yusuf Zuck’s sister, Sara, right?

Your brother told me about you, you’re really beautiful.

Get in the car!” Ruth Wilcox complimented, Yusuf Zuck’s sister, Sara, had an indescribable natural beauty.

She was like a freshly blooming mast flower, yet to fully unfold, pure and snow-white, untainted, and ethereal.

She wasn’t the kind of stunning beauty, but her youthful vitality and natural charm were no less attractive than any beautiful woman.

Her beauty was distinctive, the kind that made you want to take another look after the first glance.

If one had to describe her, she resembled the female protagonist from “Under the Hawthorn Tree”, very unripe, very likable.

Sara was a bit caught off guard and appeared restrained.

Ruth Wilcox gave her the impression of an intellectual beauty, and she had a particularly attractive smile.

Following Ruth Wilcox, she sat in the back and then started talking.

By this time, Yusuf Zuck had restarted the car and said to Sara through the rearview mirror, “This is Ms.

Wilcox from the company, and I’m driving for her now.”

“Ms.

Wilcox, hello, and thank you,” Sara politely thanked Ruth Wilcox.

Her words carried a double meaning, one being grateful to Ruth Wilcox for giving her brother such a good job, and the other thanking her for making the friendly gesture of having Yusuf pick her up.

Ruth Wilcox smiled and said, “Don’t mention it, your brother is very dedicated to his work, a real talent!”

“Thank you for the compliment, Ms.

Wilcox,” Yusuf chuckled opportunistically.

This gorgeous female CEO definitely knew what she was saying and had given him face in front of his sister.

“Hmm, didn’t you bring any luggage?” Ruth Wilcox blatantly ignored Yusuf and seemed particularly interested in Sara instead.

“I…” Sara opened her mouth to speak, but before she could say anything, Yusuf quickly interjected, “I didn’t let her bring any.

We’ll buy new stuff in Shanghai; money is no object!”

Ruth Wilcox and Sara were both rendered speechless, especially Sara, who was utterly embarrassed.

Her brother, a driver, was bragging about money in front of the boss?

She couldn’t believe he had the nerve to say that.

Continuing to ignore Yusuf, Ruth Wilcox smiled and asked, “I heard you’re studying at the film academy?

You’re acting in plays, right?”

“Yes, Acting Class Three,” Sara nodded and smiled, “Ms.

Wilcox, it’s amazing how young you are to be the CEO of the company.”

“What’s amazing about it?

I’m so busy I could die.

But looking at you, with your temperament, you’re definitely going to be a big star someday.

When we’re on the plane later, you have to sign dozens of autographs for me, to reserve them!”

“A grand per autograph, how about that?

I’ll have my sister sign for three days and nights for you!” Yusuf, not knowing when to stop, chimed in again!

Upon hearing her brother’s words, Sara’s heart thumped wildly, thinking, why is her brother still like this, saying anything that comes to mind?

“So someone doesn’t want their salary anymore, huh?” Ruth Wilcox hummed.

“Ahem, ahem, I’m driving, you girls chat, chat!” Yusuf coughed twice — Ruth Wilcox knew how to play this game!

By now, Sara had also realized that her brother seemed to have a more-than-average relationship with Ms.

Wilcox.

But the smart girl didn’t ask any questions; instead, she actively started a conversation with Ruth Wilcox on topics like the entertainment industry and so on.

Worried about having his salary docked, Yusuf didn’t dare to speak again all the way to the airport.

Meanwhile, Sara and Ruth Wilcox seemed to get along better and better, even planning where to eat snacks and shop in Shanghai after they arrived!

The rest of the company’s team had made their own way to the airport and were waiting for Ruth Wilcox.

When they saw Ruth Wilcox with a girl, they were all surprised, wondering who she was, and noticing that the girl seemed very close to Ms.

Wilcox.

Yusuf, however, stayed five or six meters behind.

The company’s staff knew that he was Ms.

Wilcox’s driver and probably also in charge of security, so they didn’t ask any more questions.

Yusuf’s plane ticket was handed to him by the secretary, while Sara’s ticket was self-service.

The group boarded the plane, all in economy class.

Originally Sara and Ruth Wilcox were seated quite far apart, but Ruth Wilcox had a colleague switch seats with Sara, and the two resumed their animated conversation.

“Yusuf, who is that girl?” Whether intentionally or not, the secretary who had booked the tickets ended up sitting next to Yusuf, also quite far from Ruth Wilcox.

“I don’t know, the boss didn’t tell me.

Don’t you recognize her?” Yusuf countered.

“I don’t know anyone from Ms.

Wilcox’s family.

That girl must be one of her relatives.

Hey, Yusuf, how about we go out for a drink tonight after we arrive in Shanghai?” The secretary smiled, “I know a bar in Shanghai that’s quite good.

I used to go there a lot when I worked in Shanghai.” The secretary was plainly asking Yusuf out.

When company co-workers went on business trips together, especially when they were about the same age and with no one else around, the chances of an affair were quite high, which often led to one-night stands.

Truth be told, the secretary liked one-night stands.

Enjoying the pleasure of love with different men was one of her favorite pastimes.

Although the small-time security guard had no status, his decent looks and sturdy build were advantages, so this time, the secretary set her sights on Yusuf for her next romantic adventure.

“I’m afraid that won’t work.

Ms.

Wilcox won’t let me go.

I’m here to ensure her safety,” Yusuf tried to avoid the secretary.

He had no interest in this opportunistic woman, though she had large breasts, smelled nice, and had nice curves.

Of course, the woman probably wasn’t seriously interested in him either and might just be trying to get closer to him.

After all, they were comrades in the same trenches, and it would be more convenient for them to form an alliance in front of Ruth Wilcox in the future.

“Are you still going to follow Ms.

Wilcox when she sleeps tonight?

Just give me a straight answer, why are you so timid?” the secretary provoked.

“I’m not going!” Yusuf closed his eyes and ignored the secretary, disliking the perfume she wore.

The secretary frowned.

What was wrong with this driver?

A beautiful woman’s invitation to a bar at night would get any man thinking—it was an opportunity for a romantic encounter.

Yet this little security guard bluntly refused her?

“Interesting!” the secretary looked Yusuf up and down, finding this little security guard intriguing.

People with character often have ability.

She just wondered how capable Yusuf was in other ‘skills’.
