HIS CONTRACTUAL MISTRESS

Chapter 431 - Pay A Visit



DAVIES CORPORATION HQ

Vincent was in the middle of the meeting with the Production Team when Jacob received an important call from one of their branch.

Kristian chose not to interrupt the meeting but left a word to Pitt on behalf of the chairman. Having Pitt around is much easier for those serving the big bosses.

Pitt immediately relayed the message when Vincent came out of the meeting room and reached the CEO's office.

"What happened? Do you have any initial news regarding the matters in our Queensland branch?"

"I contacted someone in the branch office, but he has no complete information," Pitt answered.

"Does it have anything to do with me?" Vincent has the speculation.

Somehow, every time the corporation had a problem these passing days, Vincent could not avoid thinking he was the reason as many higher-ups and investors doubted him as they were concerned about the firm falling.

That is why they were throwing a fuss at the chairman.

"Stop overthinking, Vincent. It was normal in the company that clients become demanding. And if they are not satisfied with your performance then, would you let them bully you?"

Vincent curled his lips and looked straight at Pitt's eyes as he muttered,

"I don't mind if they will bully me because I would never give a f*ck about them. However, the person who was affected is my wife. She had just recovered from almost having a miscarriage for the second time. What will happen if something happens to me again? I am only cautious now because of Hailee's sensitive condition."

Pitt nodded in understanding of Vincent's point.

Davies Corporation is a very competitive workplace. Everyone who works here is the best among the greatest.

However, hierarchy is the system that cannot disappear in every company.

Vincent had already stepped on them. However, the princess became distressed as she worried about Vincent too much.

"Why don't we go to the canteen to have a cup of coffee? In this way, you will get to know the other employees better."

"It was a great idea, yes." Vincent agreed to Pitt's suggestion. Knowing the employees in the lower position is also fundamental for him to understand the company better.

During his training under Lopez Corp. and Shen Group, Vincent got to work with ordinary workers. After that, he learned the importance of ordinary workers.

Davies Corporation already has a firm foundation as one of the biggest corporations in the world. However, he has to win every employee in this corporation, and the best strategic plan is gaining the ones at the bottom while he is courting the higher ups' support.

After Vincent left some instructions to Tina—he and Tim followed Pitt on the ground floor level. Everyone who had their breaks and had brunch was surprised to see him there when the Chairman's office has its pantry.

As he entered the canteen, Vincent swept his gaze to the entire hall and nodded at people holding some position in the company. He also tried to interact with other employees, who is flustered talking to him.

Even so, many began whispering to each other. Since everyone was familiar with Pitt, they couldn't help gossiping.

Pitt's presence beside Vincent Shen is a message from the princess that no one can touch her husband; otherwise, there are significant consequences.

Although it was prohibited to gossip about the bosses, words would still circulate about the incident the other week. That is why some employees who wanted a promotion tried to win his attention, and Vincent did not disappoint them.

"Hello, Mr. Shen!"

Vincent looked up and smiled at the man who approached their table. "Good afternoon, Director White."

"Hello, Uncle John!" greeted Pitt to James' dad.

"Hey, Pitt! Good to see you! I've heard your appearance in the headquarters is a sight from here on."

"Well, I hope my beauty won't bring a great distraction to the office."

Vincent raised a brow while John White laughed out loud.

It's a good thing that Pitt grew up with his son James, so John was familiar with how Pitt would jest around.

Anyway, Pitterson Cha is indeed a good-looking man with flawless and fair skin. Numerous students always mistake him for a Korean idol.

Pitt must live up to his looks because he is also an endorser of Davies Cosmetics since he has a share in Hailee's company as they built the Korean branch on the land owned by his ancestors.

After John settled down, he carried on...

"I am always wondering why you didn't become a celebrity when all the television networks here in Australia are willing to cast you."

Pitt pursed his lips. "Uncle John, I need not join the film industry. Standing next to the princess already made me a celebrity."

John grinned with agreement at Pitt's statement. Knowing they were Hailee's bodyguards or known as knights, these men held an outstanding reputation.

"Alright. I'm only dropping by to give my greetings."

"Are you going back to Melbourne, uncle John?"

"Ah, not yet. I'm going to visit the South Harbor to check some delivery this afternoon," John replied.

"Can I join you, Director White?" asked Vincent. After a quick thought, he got interested in accompanying the director on his round.

"Well, I cannot say no when the next CEO has this request."

After a cup of coffee, Vincent's convoy drove toward the South Harbor. Director White joined him in the car, and the old man admired the latest sports car the princess purchased when it was announced for its release.

"This car is surely a killer. I know the princess purchased it from her own pocket."

"Yes, she is, Director White," Vincent answered with a smile. He is also stunned by this car.

"Just call me John or Uncle John when we are alone and not in a workplace," John said to Vincent. The princess surely has the best taste in everything.

Vincent quickly flashes a winning smile when the old man says that.

"It's a pleasure, Uncle John."

Vincent silently thanked James for having such an adopted father at this moment. He could see that the old man supported him, as both father and son were loyal to the Davies family.

It didn't take long, and they arrived at the warehouse. John introduces Vincent to the workers in the port, and everyone is delighted to meet him.

They were overwhelmed that the next CEO was gracing them with his presence.

"Thank you for paying us a visit, Mr. Shen!"

"It is not the only time I will visit you. It's only the beginning, as I am keen to work closely with every field and department Davies Corporation has."

Upon hearing this, the workers shared a look. Vincent Shen does not differ from their boss, Jacob Davies, who has compassion for his ordinary employees.

In what they are seeing, Vincent is sincere in his words. Although they know how kind and generous the sole heiress is, it cannot avoid them being concerned if the management would be the same. However, meeting the son-in-law this afternoon gave them hope that Davies Corporation would be in excellent hands.

The workers clapped their hands and beams. Vincent let out a breath when the workers responded positively to his brief speech.

After spending almost three hours in the warehouse, Vincent and Director White headed to Northeast outside Sydney city where the Davies Mansion was located.

John wanted to have a quick visit with his wife, Doctor Manni, and son, James.

They were taking a suburban road when they were stopped halfway to the mansion.

Jacob's men, who were in the first car, got out and queried the road workers as they were blocking the way.

"Hey, what is the meaning of this? You can't just block the whole lane!" The bodyguard seated in the passenger seat shouted at the workers. But they only ignored him.

In the second car, Pitt immediately became extra vigilant when he saw that the workers in the road seemed to ignore them.

"Vincent…"

Pitt took a peek at him in the rearview mirror. Vincent nodded and also raised his guard. Tim began praying that he would stay alive after this night.

"What is going on, Captain Jones?" Pitt contacted the first car through a device on his ear.

"Everybody down!"

That is what Pitt heard from Captain Jones, the head bodyguard who has been working for Jacob for decades already.

In the next seconds, bullets started flying over and rained the four cars.
