Chapter 15: Blacklisted

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

The father and daughter chatted for a while and talked about some company matters. Jeremy reminded Bailey to rest early and leave.

At this moment, Bailey picked up his phone to check the message from Xavier.

Xavier said, “Bailey, I really can’t remember what happened to that necklace. Why don’t we find a day where I’ll book a hotel and you bring your cousin out. We’ll confront and talk to each other on the spot. What do you think?”

The corners of Bailey’s mouth curled up slightly. It seemed that Xavier and Julia had reached a consensus to unify their statements.

Thinking about the scene of the two of them fabricating lies for the sake of an unfounded necklace, Bailey found it funny. If a person did too many bad things and the shit basin was placed on his face, he would never suspect if he had really done it.

Bailey replied concisely, “Okay!”

Xavier said, “Why don’t we do it this weekend? Coincidentally, I know a private restaurant with very delicious food. We’ll go there. You can try it too.”

Private kitchen? Bailey’s expression was playful. It seemed like Xavier had a plan.

Bailey suddenly wanted to know what that little lunatic, Zachary, was doing now. Was he helping her plan to catch them in the act? Otherwise, this dinner with Xavier would be a good opportunity.

At this moment, Zachary, who was being thought about by Bailey, was staring at the screen with his big round eyes. His entire body exuded a strong resentment, and his eyes never left Bailey’s profile picture.

It was already past midnight. Why hadn’t Bailey contacted him yet? Could it be that Bailey had gone back on her word and felt that she was on a loss by selling her body, so she didn’t want him to help? Or had Bailey been playing with him since the beginning?

At the thought of this, anger filled Zachary’s handsome face. He thought hatefully, This matter was clearly started by Bailey. Why could they cancel it just because Bailey said so? Did Zachary not want his face?

Since the game had already started, it was not up to Bailey to decide when it ended. He had the final say.

Zachary looked at the time on his phone. It was already midnight, so it had been a day. He had said that he would ignore Bailey for the entire day. If he contacted Bailey now, it wouldn’t be a slap to his face.

Zachary found a way out for himself and casually entered a string of phone numbers. He sent a simple message: “Pull me out of the blacklist!”

When Bailey saw the unsigned message, she instantly jumped up from the bed. There was only one person on her WeChat blacklist, and that was Zachary.

Moreover, she could remember Zachary’s phone number without making a note. Every time she lost a project, she would search for Zachary’s phone number, stare at it and scold him ruthlessly as if she was talking to him on the phone.

Bailey scratched her head in frustration. She had really forgotten about this. She and Zachary had forcefully added each other as friends because of a project. After that, as soon as they left the office, she blacklisted him.

At that time to Bailey, calling Zachary on the phone was already the limit. There was no need to add an annoying person to her friend list.

Bailey immediately replied, “Okay ~ {cute emoji.jpg}, I’ll add you. Remember to approve my friend request.”

Bailey tried to use cute words and punctuation marks to hide her unfriendliness in the past. Then, she quickly dragged Zachary out of the blacklist and immediately added him as a friend.

Zachary looked at Bailey’s obviously fawning message and snorted. Ugly people were often up to no good. No matter how cute her expression was, it could not hide Bailey’s bad blacklisting behavior.

However, as he thought about it, the corners of Zachary’s mouth curled up uncontrollably.

When Bailey saw that Zachary had accepted the friend request, she immediately took the initiative to greet him. Then, she led the topic to the plan to catch Xavier in the act, wanting to get away with it.

When a person who usually looked down on you and mocked you was now acting cute and trying to please you, just the thought of it made Zachary feel amused.

Although he did not know what was wrong with Bailey today, Zachary had to admit that he liked such a strange Bailey.

Zachary spoke via voice chat and analyzed what he knew and what Xavier might do. Then, he told her his plan.

“So, Xavier will take his chance to attack me while the three of us are talking? Then, you plan to beat him at his own game and let Xavier and Julia be caught in bed together? All I have to do is to cooperate with you?” Bailey asked.

They were indeed natural opponents. Great minds think alike. Bailey had just thought that this meeting of the three of them would be a good opportunity. She did not expect Zachary to come up with a plan.

Zachary agreed concisely with a ‘yes’!
