HIS CONTRACTUAL MISTRESS

Chapter 112 - HIS TASKS



Chapter 112 - HIS TASKS

DAVIES GROUP HQ

Vincent and Tim were escorted toward the top floor of the building. Helen quickly stood from her chair and greeted the guests.

"Hello, Mr. Shen. I am Helen Dane. Please take a seat. I will inform Mr. Wilson that you've here."

Vince nodded at the secretary and waited for a minute.

Not long, the office door opens, and Geoffrey steps out of his office.

"Alright, Hail. Mr. Shen is here. I'll show him the Dream City maps and his projects."

There's a silence from Geoffrey as he keenly listens to the other line. Vince guesses it was the female boss.

He is very interested in meeting her, and so maybe, he could ask Geoffrey to set a meeting with her soon.

After a brief talk, Geoffrey put down his phone and inserted it into his pocket. He looked at Vince and extended his hand.

"Sorry to make you wait, Mr. Shen." After he shook hands with Vincent and Tim, Geoffrey glanced at his secretary and said, "Helen, please make a coffee for Mr. Cheng."

"Yes, boss," Helen replied enthusiastically. She turned to Tim and offered the couch to take a seat.

Tim understood that this meeting does not need him, and so he quietly sat down.

Geoffrey leads Vincent to a room with a warning sign: For Authorized Personnel Only. He takes out a key card and opens the door.

Inside, Vincent understood what the room was for as they highly secured it with advanced locked.

In the middle of the room are four sofas and a long rectangular coffee table.

If you look around, it has four rooms with the name after directions. North, South, East, and West.

"Mr. Shen, I hope you will keep whatever you see in this room."

"No worries. I have a room inside my office to keep the models in my completed and ongoing projects. Including my dream project I wanted to build in the future." he replied, assuring Geoffrey that he could truly trust him, and he has no reason to do anything of what he would see.

On the one hand, he understood why Davies Group is careful to expose their projects. They just wanted to avoid any sabotages by another firm.

Geoffrey was satisfied with his answer. "I see. I called it dedication and passion."

Vince curled his thin lips into a friendly smile. He followed Geoffrey and walked toward a wall screen, and turned it on.

"This is the map of Dream City. As we could see here, there are streams and creeks, but some are mostly dried. The boss plans this area to put canals around the East Sector."

"Like in Venice?"

"Yup! Our boss has been traveling around Europe and Asia. And she was obsessed with riding a boat around. So she wanted to put canals around here in the East Sector. The water that will provide the channels is from the Dam of the North. What do you think, Mr. Shen?" asked Geoffrey after his explanation.

"Hm. So, it means. I have to build the canals?"

"That's right, Mr. Shen. So, tomorrow, we will discuss it further with the chairman."

Vince nodded. He studied the map and began making plans. But he had more questions, and he wanted to talk to the boss personally.

"Now, Mr. Shen… as you could see, these are the current progress of Dream City. The western sector built the mansions and villas or more like the Beverly Hills here in Dream City. It means the price is unimaginable. We already have celebrities that purchased the land with us and started constructing their mansions. And I am talking about hectares of properties here, Mr. Shen."

"I could imagine it."

"If you could notice the western part of the city. There are more greenish appeared as new plant trees. Once the area began planting trees, it meant someone already bought the land."

"I see. That's great preparation. Landscaping is one thing to look into." Vincent commented.

"Now, Mr. Shen, please follow me." Geoffrey walks toward the room with the label EAST.

Inside this small room is a gray couch, and on the side is a long table, but it was empty.

"This table is reserved for East Projects. So, this table belongs to you, Mr. Shen."

Vincent blinks his eyes. He lifted his gaze and looked at Geoffrey with a perplexed facial expression.

Geoffrey smiled and patted Vincent's shoulder; he reported, "The Eastern City belongs to you, Mr. Shen… SHEN GROUP will build all projects that will be placed in the East."

Vincent rendered speechlessly. He thought that building the Tallest Building is already the biggest news he ever heard. He is wrong again. There's other greater news than that.

Vincent opens his mouth and closes it. He smiled. "Wow. That surprised me and made me speechless. What I hear is correct? The whole East construction is Shen's project?"

"Correct, Mr. Shen. Among our contractors, SHEN GROUP is the sole firm that would work on several projects. As you can see, Mr. Shen… East Sector will be the tourist attraction center of the entire Dream City. It means you were given the task to build something that will attract the world and will be forever remembered, the city named Dream City."

Hearing this, Vince reached out his chin and rubbed it. The words that came out from Geoffrey's mouth repeatedly playing in his head.

It was a heavy task. To build a portion of the city that will become the center attraction?

Wow. Vincent places both of his palms on the table. "The tallest building in the whole world is a beginning, but…" Vincent paused and asked, "What exactly the boss wanted me to build other than the tallest building? If it is a tourist attraction, it should be one of a kind shopping center or Disneyland?"

"Could it be? A shopping center and a long street of food stores."

"A modern shopping center it is?" Vincent wanted to confirm the initial plan.

"Yes! And our boss wanted trees and plants inside the shopping center."

"Then, it will be a glass roofing."

"I'm happy that you could guess what the boss wanted."

"It's an honor to work with you, Mr. Wilson. And so I will give everything I have."

"I saw the samples of what you build in your city. My boss was impressed by it, so you are the one given this task by her," said Geoffrey.

"It's a great task, and I have no plan to disappoint your boss. However, I am hoping that I have a chance to meet her so that I could personally show her my plans and discuss everything she wanted me to build."

"I'll talk to her. She is eager to finish the city as soon as possible. So she wanted to make things urgent with extra care..."

Vince nodded. He concurred, "I agreed. I promised, things will be smooth."

"Then, let's go to my office. My boss instructed me to make you sign the contract ASAP, and?so I want you to look at it."

"Do you want me to sign the contract even if you haven't seen my presentation?"

"Honestly, Mr. Shen. If I were to ask, I want to see your presentation first. But my boss instructed me just now. So, if you agreed with our terms, then you can see me tomorrow morning, and let's discuss it."

Vincent had trouble believing it. Most of his clients want assurance. But Davies Group, which is one of the biggest companies in the world, is being so considerate.

He could not stop to wonder. But then, he would not miss this opportunity to work on such projects.

Vincent followed Geoffrey to his office. Geoffrey offered him the couch while he went to his desk to get something.

Soon after, Helen entered the room and offered him a cup of coffee. He thanked her without looking but remained his eyes on his phone.

Helen exited the door with a gloomy face. She dropped her bottom on the chair and frowned. When she couldn't take it anymore, she faces Tim and calls out to his attention.

"Hey. Is your boss this snob?"

Tim blinks several times. After a brief moment processing Helen's quote, he smiled. "Yes. He's faithful to his wife."

"Oh. Thanks for the information! I'll put him on the list of BEWARE OF THE MARRIED MEN!"

Tim held, not let out a laugh. He smiled charmingly at Helen and sipped a coffee on his mug.

"How about you, Tim?"

Helen smiled sweetly at him. Tim almost choked with his coffee. He replied, "I'm single but not available to mingle."

"Oh... But we can be friends, right?"

'Good, God! Thank you for showering my luck the day I set foot in Australia! Thank you for these beautiful women who are interested in talking to me!'

Tim has been jumping inwardly. The women he saw around are all pretty. But of course, his heart is already owned by someone!

Meanwhile, in the office, Geoffrey handed Vincent a black folder, and they chatted while having coffee.

Hailey breathes in and fills her lungs with fresh air...

She badly misses Australia. The feelings she has at the moment are incomparable. Her heart filled with unexplained happiness. She is home.

And, of course, it was because Vince was here.
