Chapter 199
Darcy suppressed the desire and hope in her heart and returned to her room.
After she returned to the room, she went to the bathroom and took a shower.
She washed her body carefully, and her every movement had an ulterior motive.
After a while, the sound of water gradually stopped, and Darcy walked out wearing a white bathrobe.
She combed her hair and walked in the direction of the door but stopped when she opened the door.
Just when she passed by Waylon's study, she thought of a wonderful excuse. She could go to the study and tell Waylon that she wanted to check her e-mail and borrow his computer to use it. In that way, she could spend time alone with Waylon.
However, if she wore a bathrobe only, it would be self-evident that she was seducing him, and she should not take the risk.
Darcy changed into a dress that looked a bit formal. After carefully confirming that there was nothing wrong with it, she walked to the study entrance.
There was a knock on the door. Waylon thought it was Alena, so he said softly, "Come in."
But when he saw that the person pushing the door was Darcy, his brows raised invisibly.
"Mr. Gray." Darcy had already thought about her excuses and met his deep black eyes without any haste. "I forgot to bring my computer over, and there are still some work emails that I have not processed yet. Can I-"
She seemed a little embarrassed, and her voice went low. "Can I borrow your computer for use?"
Waylon nodded faintly and kindly. "Since it's about work, you can use it."
"Thank you!" Darcy smiled at him gratefully.
Waylon got up, and he let Darcy sit down. He then walked to the sofa and sat down.
The laptop glowed with a faint blue cold light, and Darcy hid behind the screen. She secretly looked in Waylon's direction, and her heartbeat speeded up.
The temperature that belonged to Waylon remained on the chair, and she was greedy for it.
However, she didn't dare to make herself too obvious, and she pretended to have taken care of her work.
When he heard the sound of footsteps stopping in front of him, Waylon opened his eyes and asked, "Is it done?"
"Well, it's all done." Darcy lowered her voice, and her appearance very gentle, "Mr. Gray, I'm sorry for causing you trouble."
Waylon stood up and said gently, "No."
He had sat down behind the computer again, "If you are done, take a break and go to work early tomorrow."
"Yes." Darcy smiled and left contentedly.
She felt that although Waylon was very cold, he was very indulgent towards her.
Back in the room, Darcy immediately told Yves the news. All they had to do was to test to see where Waylon's bottom line was constantly.
Because of the smooth progress of the plan, Yves's attitude towards Darcy had also improved a lot. She was still a useful pawn, so she should be treated well.
"It seems that Waylon still has some trust in you. Otherwise, he won't let you touch his computer."
Yves had been a friend of Waylon for many years, and he knew Waylon. "In this case, try to ask him tomorrow to give you a ride to work."
Darcy had thought of this a long time ago. If she and Waylon took the same car to the company, they would attract other people's attention. Then she would pretend to be a very kind person. She would win Waylon's trust.
Early the following day, after she heard the engine noise coming from downstairs, Darcy immediately ran off.
Waylon was about to get in the car, and Bill was waiting by the side.
"Mr. Gray." Darcy panted slightly. She was standing in front of Waylon as if she wanted to talk.
"Do you need something?" Waylon stopped, and from the corner of his eye, saw Alena, who was coming down from the stairs.
Darcy overlooked Alena. She hesitated to speak, "Can I ask Mr. Gray to take me for a ride? I'm not very familiar with this neighborhood. I don't know how to get there. Mr. Gray, you can drop me on the side of the road after we get out of this community."
Waylon hadn't spoken yet. Alena, who was standing behind her, quickly said, "Aren't you going to the company? Waylon, you can bring Darcy."
Waylon's eyes darkened. When did this woman become so generous? She did not only bring her female friend to his house, but she also asked him to take her to work. Didn't she have any common sense?
"Alena has spoken. How can I disagree?" Waylon glanced at Alena with a faint smile, then turned to look at Darcy. "Get in the car."
It wasn't until the car shadow disappeared around the corner that Alena recovered from the confusion.
Was she overthinking? Why did she always feel that Waylon was a little strange?
However, she didn't have time to think about it because she was about to be late for work. She quickly changed her shoes and hurried out.
The car drove smoothly on the road. Darcy was sitting in the back seat of Lamborghini, and Waylon, whose face was silent, was far away from her.
The atmosphere in the car was tranquil.
When she saw that the intersection was about to be reached, Darcy hesitated for a moment but slowly said, "Mr. Gray, I will get off here. I can just go by bus-"
"No need." Waylon interrupted her in a deep voice. His eyes were still staying on the phone and computer in front of him. Waylon's frowned slightly as if something annoying had happened.
Darcy breathed a sigh of relief and couldn't help but secretly look at the man beside her. There was a saying that men were the most attractive when they were focused. It was true!
There was no trace of blemish on his perfectly angled face. Waylon's deep black eyes were like a deep pool, and even though he was just sitting, he still had a powerful aura.
The Lamborghini stopped at the door of the company. Darcy opened the door and walked on.
Just as she thought, when she got of Waylon's car, she immediately attracted the attention of many people.
Those inquisitive eyes made Darcy very satisfied. She held her head high and stepped into the Emperor Group slowly.
The workplace was another gathering place for gossip. Within a few moments, the news that Darcy got off the car from Mr. Gray had spread throughout the company. Many people had begun to attack and try to find out what their actual relationship was.
