Chapter 971
"You're welcome!"
Lexx caught a glimpse of Willy and Lauren behaving awkwardly out of the corner of his eyes. He gave a faint smile and walked towards the parking lot nearby with the flyer in his hand.
Lauren held the items in her hands tightly. Her mind was in a mess then. She glanced at Willy a few times and remained silent. She just felt slightly annoyed at that moment.
Willy was not a man of small stature. How could Lauren not notice him at all? Lauren would have stayed away from Willy if she noticed him earlier!
For some reason, Lauren had mixed feelings when she saw Willy. She felt uncomfortable.
Willy slowly stepped forward. He stopped when he was just a step away from Lauren, and she held her breath almost at the same time. She could sense Willy's condescending gaze that was cast coldly on her. Neither of them spoke. Lauren was hesitating if she should greet Willy. All of a sudden, her shoulder jerked backwards. She staggered and raised her head, only to realize that the arrogant man had already walked past her.
All of a sudden, anger welled up within Lauren's chest. What the hell! Why was he so arrogant? He was as annoying as Wendy!
Lauren lowered her head and forced a smile on her face. Then, she summoned her strength to continue working.
On the other side of the road, Willy turned his head and took a glance before getting into the car. Then, he got into the car angrily.
Why was she distributing flyers there? Was she helping her friend or...
Willy closed his eyes. However, memories of Lauren giving back the bank card, clothes, and other items to Willy flashed across his mind. Thinking of it, frustration rose within Willy's chest. Lauren deserved it, since she cared about her dignity so much!
He opened his eyes and asked, "Is her friend very poor?"
Otherwise, how could her friend have a pregnant woman do such a thing on the street in the middle of the night? Thinking of that, Willy felt very uncomfortable about the situation. "Huh? Who are you talking about?"
For a moment, Lexx didn't understand what was going on.
"That person with the last name Weil, or something!"
"Are you talking about Sharon Weil? She's a senior forensic medical examiner. Well, to be more precise, she's a highly skilled technician. Her salary is much higher than that of the police! She should be doing quite well! Could it be that Miss Heady... is not used to troubling others?"
With a friend like that, it would be easy to keep the friendship alive. They would also be the kind of friends that were more worthwhile having. Someone who would not want anything in return for their kindness, had gratitude and would rely on themselves if they needed something!
Lauren indeed was someone with such a personality!
Willy indulged in his own thoughts and he did not say anything else as his gaze darkened. However, his mood seemed to be troubled at that moment. She was in such a hardship, but still wouldn't succumb to him and ask him for help!
D*mn it! She was pregnant with his baby! How could she treat their baby so badly from the very beginning? How much suffering would his baby need to go through with her?
Willy felt extremely uncomfortable about it!
Lauren completed her workload of the day in distributing flyers to 100 people very quickly. To her surprise, many people left their contact numbers for her even though she did not take the initiative to promote the fitness club to them. The other two people who were hired to recruit members didn't manage to get as many customers as compared to Lauren.
After getting her daily salary, Lauren thanked the boss happily, "Thank you, can I come back to work tomorrow?"
"Of course! It's our pleasure to have you work for us! By the way, Miss Heady, can you teach us the secret method you used to draw so many customers and make them willingly leave their contact information?"
Lauren smiled embarrassingly and said sincerely,
"Well, I'm sorry, I really don't know
the reason behind this. To be
honest, I'm very good at memorizing notes and giving lessons. I might also be good at sharing some professional knowledge with others. However, socializing is my weakness. It's very easy for me to upset others! So, that's why I just want to take up a job that requires
me to only distribute flyers!"
At first, the boss' attitude towards Lauren was also just indifferent. After all, the boss was not urgently in need of hiring people for the job. What the boss really needed were the contact numbers of the customers so that they could follow up with the customers later on. Therefore, no one paid attention to Lauren's job at all.
"Truth to be told, I didn't say much. I
just tried to remember how the promoters I previously encountered used to promote things to me and forced myself to memorize a line or two from them... I think humans are prone to reverse psychology. Customers usually will not be at ease to leave their contact numbers as they are concerned that under inappropriate circumstances, they would be pestered by the promoters. Since I never take the initiative to ask for their contact numbers, as they see that I'm just holding the notebook in my hands, they instead feel secure to leave their contact numbers for me. As a result, they felt right about it and just signed up for the membership on their own. Perhaps luck is just on my side today! Thank you for giving me this opportunity!"
After all, in the past, stores used to have campaigns of giving out free gifts. Customers who enjoyed free gifts had to leave their contact numbers. Although the Phantom Fitness Club decided to give out free trial cards for just a two-hour experience, attractive gift and benefit for such a high-end fitness club.
I was considered as an
Moreover, Lauren distributed most of the trial cards to young and fashionable youngsters. She felt that type of people paid more attention to their appearance. Therefore, it would be easier to attract their attention or even win them over to join the fitness club.
"Haha! Miss Heady, you're way too modest. Actually, it's not that you're not good at socializing. Perhaps it's just that you're used to not taking the initiative to get close to people. Look at you, didn't you do well in distributing the flyers? You did a good job by just giving yourself a little push. Well, actually, the way you talk makes people feel very comfortable!"
Perhaps it was just that Lauren was not be used to socializing with others. In addition, she looked indifferent and cold. Therefore, people might have a misconception that it would be very hard to get close to her. In fact, one might feel like Lauren had a socialite's upbringing after speaking to her.
"Thank you..."
"Miss Heady, in fact, you have a good figure. You must be a person who enjoys sports as well! Do you want to consider joining our club to be a fitness coach? You could coach people in spinning, using dumbbells, dancing zumba, practicing pilates and so on. You'll be able to start working after receiving training for a few days. It's easy to learn!"
After all, what the gym needed was a woman with a healthy and beautiful-looking body as the benchmark!
"About this, I have to take my schedule into consideration. I'll think about it!" Lauren wanted to accept the job offer. However, her physical condition did not allow her to do so then!
Nevertheless, Lauren didn't say it directly. After chatting for a while more, she left.
After earning some money, Lauren was in a very good mood. She received a phone call from Sharon when she was about to head home. She said, "I'm still outside, so it's on my way!"
Hearing that Sharon needed her help to collect some documents, Lauren agreed immediately.
"The entrance of the bank at East Bannpool. Got it!"
"Don't worry, you asked me for help because I know Taekwondo, right? You know that I'm not interested in that kind of place. I'll just go there to get the documents. I won't enter the nightclub and try to explore! Everything will be fine!"
While chatting with Sharon, Lauren stuck out her tongue playfully, something which she rarely did. She was extremely disgusted with that kind of place as it was somewhere men sought for filthy pleasures. She didn't like it at all, and even if she was curious, bad time, so why would she risk it?
"All right, I'll go home after getting the documents!"
Looking at the signboard at the bus station, she switched buses right away.
Lauren did as told. She retrieved a brown manila folder and gave Sharon a phone call. Then, as she turned around and was getting ready to leave, she looked up and suddenly saw a tall and familiar figure...
was a very
