Chapter 50: One-Track Mind

Nadia Sawyer was already extremely grateful that William Scott could say that. She was afraid that William Scott would hate her and say something bad in front of Yvette Quinn. If Yvette Quinn said a few more words to her company’s CEO, she would have to pack up and leave.

“William Scott, can we… leave our number and Telegram handle?” Liam Cole was a little cautious.

William Scott smiled and said, “Of course. I wanted to ask you for it last time. I haven’t contacted my classmates for many years.”

Liam Cole hurriedly added William Scott on Telegram and said excitedly, “That’s great. You’re the only one left uncontactable in our class. Now that we’ve managed to get you, will you have time to attend a reunion gathering in future?”

“No problem.” William Scott nodded happily. Then, he said, “Don’t spread the news about my relationship with Yvette Quinn.”

“No, no, we won’t.” Liam Cole quickly nodded in agreement.

At this moment, Nadia Sawyer was even more elated. “This will definitely not come out of our mouths.”

This meant that William Scott and Yvette Quinn’s relationship was a secret among their classmates. She and Liam Cole were the ones who were going to keep the secret for William Scott. This obviously brought them closer to each other. How could she not be happy?

After adding him on Telegram, William Scott said that he had something to do and left first. Liam Cole and Nadia Sawyer hurriedly moved aside.

William Scott was actually not the first to react the company. There were already a few employees in the company.

Now there were almost 20 employees and more than 10 actors in the company. There were also photography, scriptwriting, and finance staff.

“Good morning, Vice President.” When they saw William Scott, everyone immediately greeted him.

Under William Scott’s insistence, Xenia Lewis became the President of the company, and William Scott was only a Vice President.

......

William Scott was indeed a major shareholder, but he was not professional in this industry either. He knew very well that he should let the more professional people do the work by giving them power.

Moreover, William Scott had nothing to do in this company for the time being. He was just looking for something to occupy his time first. If he occupied too important a position, it would cause a very bad impact on the company once he left.

As soon as he entered his own office room, Xenia Lewis pushed the door open and entered. She had a dissatisfied expression on her face as she said, “Hey, your temper is too good, huh?”

“Hehe, you’re talking about Nadia Sawyer and Liam Cole?” When William Scott spoke to Nadia Sawyer and the others, he realized that Xenia Lewis was not far away. It was just that Xenia Lewis did not appear at that time.

Xenia Lewis’s face was tense as she said, “That’s right. Don’t you remember what she said last time? She still has the cheek to talk to you about your relationship as classmates now.”

William Scott still smiled faintly. “It’s just a small matter. There’s really no need to take it to heart. Whether she thinks highly of me or looks down on me, it doesn’t affect me at all.”

Xenia Lewis suddenly placed her elbows on the desk and leaned her face in front of William Scott. She sized him up with a strange gaze and did not speak for a long time.

William Scott looked at her and said, “What kind of gaze is that? Why am I so nervous?”

Xenia Lewis suddenly said, “I suddenly seem to understand why you have such a good temper.”

“Why?” asked William Scott with a smile.

Xenia Lewis said seriously, “In your eyes, be it Liam Cole or Nadia Sawyer, they’re just two small figures and you don’t take them seriously at all. Therefore, no matter how annoying they get, you don’t take it to heart. Or rather, in your eyes, the two of them are like two ignorant children, so there’s no need for you to argue with them.”

William Scott said with a smile, “Aren’t you overestimating me?”

Xenia Lewis shook her head and said, “Definitely not. Don’t forget that I’m a director, so I’m still very professional in the study of human nature. I’ve also done a lot of research on psychology and know a little about human microexpressions. I didn’t pay much attention to it in the past, but now that I’ve studied you carefully, I’ve indeed discovered many abnormalities.”

“No way? Why do you make me feel a little creeped out? I’m right in front of you. I can’t have any secrets in the future, right?”

“I’m not that good. I can just see that transcendent mentality of yours. You must have had a wonderful experience in the past to be so indifferent to many things. In the future, you have to tell me about it properly. You’re definitely a treasure. As long as I dig you up, I’m very likely to make a remarkable film.”

The more Xenia Lewis spoke, the more excited she became. She blinked her big bright eyes and said, “You’re not allowed to refuse.”

William Scott smiled. “I was afraid you’d be disappointed.”

Xenia Lewis stared at William Scott and said confidently, “You will definitely surprise me. I’m sure of it.”

William Scott felt very comfortable that a girl trusted him so much. He said, “Alright, we’ll talk about it later. Today is the first day of work. Look at how you’re lying in front of me now. Oh, your posture…”

William Scott hurriedly looked away.

Xenia Lewis lowered her head and took a look. She stood up with a whoosh and even tidied her collar with both hands. She said angrily, “Pervert!”

William Scott said in amusement, “It’s my fault again huh… I didn’t ask you to lie on the table.”

“Hmph. If I don’t blame you, who do I blame? Can’t you not look?”

“I don’t want to see it, but you’re right there. It’s hard for me not to see it.”

Xenia Lewis said even more angrily, “Ah, you mean that I’m not attractive at all? You only looked at me because you had no choice?”

“Gah!” William Scott was dumbfounded. What kind of logic was this? Did she want him to see or not?

Seeing William Scott’s dumbfounded look, Xenia Lewis suddenly burst out laughing and said, “You’ve such a one-track mind. How could you actually date Yvette. Yes, yes, I understand. Perhaps the two of you are similar, that’s why you can be together.”

William Scott heaved a sigh of relief and said, “You scared me to death. I was confused by you.”

Xenia Lewis rolled her eyes at William Scott and said, “You took advantage of me, and I’m not allowed to lose my temper? You should coax me and apologize properly. Sigh, I really don’t know what to say about you.”

William Scott laughed dryly. He felt that this matter was quite profound. It was not that he had no women around him all these years, but that they were all women who were more manly than men. He really did not understand and did not know how to deal with such trouble caused by this childlike lady.
