They had half a month to complete the task. However, one week passed and the two of them still didn’t have the inspiration to start.

Feeling pressured, Ashlyn kept posting words like, “I’m dying!”, “Can someone please lend me their brain?” But after posting them, she would delete them immediately. Her posts seemed very random and spontaneous.

Soon, the subsidiary of New East at Lyrdrell was built and the opening ceremony was held.

This time, Calvin was the only person in attendance. Neil usually wouldn’t show his face at an event as small as this. Now that he had a son, it was impossible for him to attend any events anymore.

After the ceremony ended, Calvin made a call to Ashlyn to ask her out for lunch.

When Ashlyn was squeezing her head for ideas, her phone rang and she saw Calvin’s name on the screen. His name sent sudden ripples through her heart, rattling her emotions.

Calvin asked Ashlyn to meet him at Lydrell’s tallest revolving restaurant. It was a high-class restaurant w

It was enticing in a way that you would never know how they looked until they were served.Calvin frowned. “What on earth are these?”Ashlyn laughed. “That’s just foie gras with a flashy name. Don’t tell me you don’t know what it is?”Calvin’s phone rang. He looked at it, frowned, and hung up.However, the person kept calling him. At first, Calvin wanted to switch off his phone. However, he was still expecting to receive calls from the subsidiary. and he was worried that he might miss out on important matters. So, he said, “I have to take this call. Give me a minute.”The moment he received the call, a girl’s crying voice echoed through the receiver. “Calvin…”When he walked away, the smile on Ashlyn’s face gradually disappeared.

    Although Ashlyn was the one who said to eat quickly, she was in fact, the slowest eater. She was still eating even when Calvin had finished his portion of the meal.She wanted to taste every single dish on the table.“Give me a minute. I’m almost done,” Ashlyn said apologetically as she looked at Calvin.“Just take your time. I can wait.” Calvin stared at Ashlyn’s puffed up cheeks, stuffed with food, and found her incredibly cute. “Have you been eating well in Emmeria?”“Uh…” Ashlyn thought for a moment and said, “I don’t really enjoy the food in Emmeria. The menu’s always the same wherever I go. I think food is better in Genovia. I just can’t get enough of it! I’m not the only one who thinks that. William couldn’t get used to the food in Emmeria too. That’s why he came back.”“William Graham?” Calvin frowned.“Yeah.”“Are you still in contact with him?”“Yes, he…” At first, Ashlyn wanted to tell Calvin that she and William had talked for some time, and that William had been ad

He was looking at her.“Yes?” She turned around, her ID in her hand.“Come here,” Calvin said.Still absent-minded, Ashlyn walked toward Calvin while typing on the phone.‘What’s wrong?” Ashlyn asked.Calvin looked into Ashlyn’s eyes with a warm gaze. Then, he pulled her into his arms and gave her a kiss on the lips. He wrapped her in his wide coat, and slowly inched forward for a deep kiss. At first, Ashlyn was taken aback. She wasn’t sure what was happening. Her eyes went wide and she stared at Calvin, whose eyes were closed. Her heart was beating so fast that it almost jumped out of her chest.

    After Ashlyn returned to her room, she could still feel her face burning. Standing in front of the dressing mirror, she touched her burning face and looked at her red and plump lips. Her eyes were glistening with a spark that wasn’t there before.Calvin’s sudden kiss almost made her heart stop. She had completely forgotten about her discussion with Xenia as well as her past, where she was bullied before. When she thought about being bullied at school, her body shivered profusely. She felt like backing off from everything.“Hey, you’re back!” Shawna said. “How’s dinner? Did you not bring back some food for me? What kind of food did you and your brother have?”When Ashlyn went out, she told Shawna that her brother was treating her to a meal.She wasn’t lying. After all, Calvin was like a brother to Ashlyn ever since she was young.Things just turned differently when they grew up.“I basically ordered everything that we wanted to eat,” Ashlyn said.

I’m still considering your confession,” Ashlyn said.“I’m not calling to rush you. I’m going back to Genovia. Let me know when you’ve reached a decision,” Calvin said.After that, the atmosphere drowned in silence.All of a sudden, Ashlyn was reluctant to let him go. Although he was at Lyrdrell, she still couldn’t meet him. His presence in this city alone was enough to reassure her that everything was going to be fine.Calvin was a man who would keep his word. Ever since that night and the promise that he had made for her, Calvin had never once called to bug her for an answer. He had never personally visited her, either. Perhaps he was giving her some time to clear off her head so she could actually think about the prospect of their relationship. Plus, he didn’t want to pressure her into doing h

In the past, Damien would commend Calvin’s every action as Calvin reminded Damien of himself when he was young. But now, Damien was actively searching for Calvin’s weaknesses. Unfortunately, he simply couldn’t pinpoint any. “Are you in a relationship with Ashlyn?” Damien asked with a straight face.“Not yet.”Damien said through gritted teeth, “How dare you kiss her when…”Damien thought about his words.

It was as if the two of them had known each other for a long time. It was as if they had known each other for a long time."Your mother did a good job with this exhibition," Jacey said."It's good. After all, you're an expert in this field," Benjamin said. "Or if you have any requests when you get married, tell my mother and let her customize the most beautiful jewelry for you.""Married?" Jacey didn't understand.She had never thought about marriage. Why did she feel so close to her when Benjamin mentioned it?She still felt quite confused."I'll treat you to a meal later?" Benjamin said. "What do you want to eat?"Jacey's eyes lit up. "Hotpot? How about a hotpot?"Benjamin smiled and said, "I thought you had a profound hobby. This is it."Jacey smiled again.Jacey didn't like the feeling of being surrounded by people, so she chose the

    Kenny smoked as he spoke. He had the look of a veteran in society. It was hard not to believe that he was a nouveau riche who did not hesitate to sacrifice the lives of his subordinates to save money."Sir, you've found the right person. Come and take a look." The workshop owner said. Then, he whispered a few words into Kenny's ear and asked, "Can you accept it?""What's so unacceptable about that? I'm definitely showing it to Party A. These people grew up in the countryside. What kind of milk have they drunk? I can't tell if it's true or not," Kenny said."Alright, alright," the workshop owner said with a smile."Just don't make it obvious. I'll go take a look at the manufacturing workshop." Kenny said.The owner of the workshop was initially quite shy, but Kenny said that he had ordered a lot, so the other party agreed.As soon as he entered the workshop, Jacey secretly turned on the pinhole camera when the workshop owner was not paying attention and filmed the production proce

It was unknown how long Kenny searched last night before he found it and gave it to Jacey so easily.Jacey left.However, she did not expect that something would happen on her first day there.She brought a vacuum camera and made her clothes look like rural women's. After finding the milk production point, she said that she wanted to order milk in large quantities because she heard that the milk here was very cheap.The people in the workshop looked at each other and said, "I'm not selling!"The people in the workshop were very smart and vigilant. Their workshop had a fixed delivery channel. This woman was alone and was unlikely to be here to order. They found an excuse and sent Jacey away.No matter how much Jacey dawdled, the other party refused to let her in.For a moment, Jacey didn't know what to do. She was quite depres

    Jacey was a little stunned. She really didn't know much about what the parents were talking about.Moreover, she hadn't interacted with Benjamin for a few days. Moreover, when Ashlyn came to visit this time, she didn't say a word about him. It made her feel very uneasy. She even wondered if he didn't mean that at all. It was all her own wishful thinking…For the past few days, Benjamin had not come to look for Jacey. She had not contacted him either.However, a few days later, Jacey received a Whatsapp message from Benjamin. There were many photos. It was a rather high-class living room. There were boxes in the living room. The living room was simple and noble, like a top-notch courtyard house.[This is the showroom and display cabinet for my mother's medieval jewelry. How about letting your mother take a look?] Benjamin said.[Where is this place? This place is so beautiful.][My mother's dowry. The courtyard house in Genovia.] Benjamin said.Jacey thought to herself, "As expec

    Today, Benjamin had already returned home."How is it? How's your first time meeting your in-laws alone?" Calvin teased Ashlyn."It's quite good. I'm preparing to hold a medieval jewelry exhibition and then let my employees learn medieval video skills. I said that I wanted to use their jewelry as an exhibition, but they didn't even want the deposit. How generous," Ashlyn said lazily as she leaned against the sofa."It's… it's over?" Calvin looked at Ashlyn and said in surprise.Benjamin sat there and smiled."What else?" Ashlyn asked."What are you going to do this time? Aren't you going to look for your daughter-in-law? Did you see what she looked like?" Calvin poured a cup of tea for Ashlyn.After so many years, Ashlyn still hadn't changed from her usual macho self. In fact, she was even more macho than before. Perhaps Calvin had been the one to deal with everything after marriage, developing Ashlyn's habit of not using her brain.Of course, it only meant that she didn't use

    For some reason, Ashlyn felt like crying when she saw this. In the past, these jewelry had traveled to another country. Now, these jewelry were all back with stories.She thought about how the person who owned these jewelry had brought them overseas and brought them back…She felt that the Irving family was worthy of admiration.Linda had gone out at some point. Seeing that Ashlyn was looking at her very seriously, she didn't disturb her.When she came in again, she was carrying a cup of coffee. The fragrant Americano she'd just ordered from the coffee machine on the first floor. It was made from good coffee beans.She handed the coffee to Ashlyn."Have a cup of coffee when you're tired. Anyway, these jewelry don't have long legs. They won't run away on their own," Linda said. "You can come and take a look whenever you want. I've always been here."Only then did Ashlyn feel that she had been watching for an hour or two, but she had always been like a pious primary school student

    On Saturday afternoon, Ashlyn drove to Jacey's house, a very simple villa.Ashlyn knew that writers liked to live in such a quiet place because they had inspiration in such a place.Jacey's mother, Linda, was already standing on her steps to welcome her.Linda was dressed in a Chinese-style robe. She looked very ancient, but because she was slender, she looked especially good. She looked like a fairy.Ashlyn was dressed in a very fashionable modern outfit. She was wearing a knee-length skirt, pearl earrings, and earrings. She looked especially round and beautiful. One look and one could tell that she was the kind of person who had never experienced the blow of life."I'm Jacey's mother. Nice to meet you, Mrs. Conrad." Linda reached out and held Isobel's hand. "Jacey said that you're coming to our house to take a look. I am so happy. I specially brought all the jewelry from the other houses here and packed them up.

    "Excuse me, how did you know about me?" Jacey asked."Oh, Benjamin's phone was on the table that day. He went to the washroom and I happened to see the photo album he was looking through. I picked it up and saw these few pieces of jewelry. You know it too. As jewelry makers, we won't let go of those rare jewelry no matter what. I asked Benjamin where these pieces of jewelry came from and he told me about you," Ashlyn said neither servile nor overbearing.She understood a girl's mentality very well. She knew that if the woman found out that the man had taken the initiative to leak her news to her parents, she would be very disgusted and feel passive. Therefore, she did not say that. Instead, she said that she had seen it herself. She even said that Benjamin was looking at these photos at that time.Jacey's heart would probably feel warm. After all, a man was looking at her photo behind her back. She should have a good impression of this man.Jacey really thought so. When she heard A

One look at this jewelry and she knew that it was priceless.Moreover, the girl wearing the jewelry also had extremely good skin and was extremely delicate.Calvin, who was sitting at the side, also watched.However, Ashlyn didn't just look at the jewelry. She said, "You only bought jewelry. Who is this person wearing jewelry behind you?"Ashlyn asked Benjamin gossipily."Don't ask," Benjamin said.Ashlyn smiled. "You said that you only took photos of the jewelry but didn't take photos of her. Aren't you trying to arouse my curiosity? Now that I'm curious, you're not making a move. However, I've been working on researching National Jewelry recently, so I'm lacking samples in this area. When are you going to ask this girl out? Let me take a closer look.
