Chapter 385 Spotted Crayson Acting Suspiciously

“That’s so sneaky of you, Mr. Ludwig! You’re not arranging for her to be my assistant, are you? You’re

just trying to get me to mentor her.” Mia sulked and rolled her eyes.

“Veronica was made for this industry. She might have joined a little late, but based on her performance

during the previous jewelry showcase event, it’s clear that she’s a natural. She’s a diamond in the

rough that just needs some polishing. You’re her senior in this field, so I hope that you will guide her

and get along with her.”

Having said that, Sean closed his laptop and got up. “I have something to attend to, so I’m heading out

now.”

He moved toward the door while speaking, so he neglected to see the flash of intense jealousy in Mia’s

eyes.

“I will. Leave it to me, Mr. Ludwig.”

Mia nodded and agreed, but her eyes were shooting daggers.

For some reason, she felt threatened, and it made her a little antsy.

Mia left the conference room and headed straight for Veronica’s desk. She rapped on the desk to get

Veronica’s attention.

Veronica looked up from her magazine and asked, “Yes, Miss Stuart?”

She did not plan on staying long in this modeling agency, but she was still going to do a good job and

fulfill all tasks required of her.

This included getting along with her colleagues.

“Mr. Ludwig said that he hasn’t found me an assistant yet, so you’re going to be my assistant for now.

You’ll need to come with me to Castron tomorrow,” Mia commanded loftily.

Veronica was not keen on following Mia around, but since it was Sean who made the arrangements,

she had to go along with it.

In any case, she was the newest rookie to join the agency.

“Since this is Mr. Ludwig’s orders, feel free to let me know what you need, Miss Stuart,” Veronica said

with a confident smile.

“Uh huh. I was in a rush this morning, so I haven’t eaten yet. Go get me the famous meat ravioli on

Pines Street, a bowl of pumpkin soup from Sweetie’s Diner on Westcross Street, and a slice of bacon

and cheese quiche from Madam Leta’s Bakery on Crimson Lane. Oh, and help me grab my parcel from

the mailroom in the back.”

Mia swiftly barked out a list of demands.

Rania felt like she had gone too far, so she piped up, “Miss Stuart, those places are all so far away.

Veronica would have to travel across half the city just to get everything. Isn’t that a bit much?”

Wade had been smoking nearby, and he nodded along once he heard Rania’s comment. “Rania’s right,

Miss Stuart. It’s so cold out right now too. Why don’t you just pick one spot to get breakfast from?”

Mia was already in a bad mood, but it worsened once she heard how the other two were standing up

for Veronica.

“Huh. Veronica’s only been here for a few days, but you’re all jumping to her defense already.”

She sneered and added mockingly, “Is it because you’re all trying to win her favor since you found out

that she’s Old Mrs. Kings’ god-granddaughter?”

“You… What utter nonsense!” Wade snorted and shook his head, but he left it at that.

It was Rania who bristled at Mia’s taunting. “You’re the one who went too far, but here you are coming

up with all sorts of excuses.”

“Is that so? Well, since you pity Veronica, shall I ask Mr. Ludwig to appoint you as my assistant

instead?”

“I…” Rania did not know what to say.

Veronica shot Rania a grateful smile.

She got up and stuck her palm out at Mia. “Since it’s Mr. Ludwig’s orders, I have no reason to object.

However, I will need some money from you, Miss Stuart, since I forgot to bring my wallet with me today.

I also got a ride to work today, so I don’t have any means of transportation either. I’ll be claiming my

travel expenses from you as well, Miss Stuart.”

“Travel expenses?”

Mia felt like Veronica was being difficult on purpose, so she said, “You should be able to walk since it’s

not too far away.”

“Fine. I’ll head out right now.” Mia nodded, but she continued holding her hand out.

Mia rolled her eyes in anger and handed fifty bucks over to Veronica. “Hurry up.”

“Got it,” Mia replied.

Wade called out to Mia, “I rode in on my motorcycle. Let me give you a ride.”

“That won’t be necessary.”

“It’s fine. It’ll be more convenient if I fetch you around.”

Veronica tried to protest. “I don’t…”

“Stop arguing. Come on, let’s go.” Wade grabbed his keys and began to walk off without even waiting

for Veronica’s response.

Mia snorted derisively and taunted, “Wade, could it be that you have a thing for Veronica?”

“Cut that out. I’m just helping out a colleague,” Wade shot back.

Veronica took the money and followed Wade out of the office feeling conflicted.

She did not want Wade to chauffeur her around while she bought breakfast. If she had gone alone, she

could have checked in at Vincere Games for a bit, but now it was no longer possible for her to do that.

They left the office with Wade bringing Veronica around on his motorcycle.

When they rode past a cafe, Veronica suggested, “Hey, let’s stop here. I’ll buy you a cup of coffee.”

“Huh? But you need to get breakfast for Mia. If you get a cup of coffee now, she’ll probably complain

about how long you took.”

“We were caught in traffic!” Mia declared with a straight face.

Wade stared at the empty streets in a daze before chuckling. “You’re right. There’s a lot of traffic today.”

If Mia could use traffic as an excuse, so could they.

Therefore, Veronica and Wade sat down at a table by the window and began enjoying a cup of coffee.

“Wade, how long have you been working at Starshine?”

There were quite a few male models in the agency, and Wade was one of the commercial models. He

was a young man with narrow eyes and a fair complexion, and he was the charming boy-next-door

type.

He was very photogenic and would light up under the camera with just a touch of makeup.

“I’ve been in the industry for two or three years now, so I’m considered fairly experienced by now. If I

don’t make a name for myself in the next two years, I might have to go back home and take up farming

for a living.” Wade chortled.

He was very easy to get along with as he gave the impression of being a cheerful younger brother.

“What do you mean? You’re still young and you have a bright future ahead of you,” Veronica chuckled

and said reassuringly.

As they continued chatting, she glanced out the window for a moment.

It was only a cursory glance, and she withdrew her gaze to sip her coffee.

All of a sudden, her eyes widened and she whipped her head back up to look out the window.

That man…

“Master Crayson?” Veronica’s heart missed a beat.

“What did you say?” Wade had not heard Veronica clearly.

Veronica turned to Wade and said in a rush, “Wade, I have something urgent to attend to, so could you

please help me get breakfast for Mia? I’ll treat you to a meal sometime. Please, and thank you.”

She leaped to her feet and scampered out of the cafe.

Once she got onto the street, she ran in the direction where she had seen Crayson. Once she spotted

his silhouette in the distance, she was doubly sure that it was him.

Why would he be here?

Veronica was at a loss.

To prevent Crayson from sensing that he was being followed, she stopped at a men’s clothing store

and swiftly picked out a men’s jacket, scarf and cap. After making the payment, she quickly changed

into her new outfit and put her other clothes away.

She had managed to do it all in just two minutes.

After putting on a face mask, she adjusted her cap and left the store.

Veronica wore a black leather jacket and a cap pulled low enough to hide half of her face. She stuffed

her hands into her jacket pockets and sped after Crayson once more.

She wanted to see who Crayson had come to meet.

Now, she found it even more plausible that the man she had seen at Mudwood Street was Crayson.
