As they chatted, Ashlyn remembered how the girls in her school had bullied her in the restroom.

That afternoon, she had just eaten some gnocchi, pork chops, and vegetables for lunch. After the girls had kicked her and left, she vomited everything she had eaten, and it’d felt so awful that till now, at the mention of pork chops, she would be reminded of that nightmarish afternoon. At the same time, she would also be reminded of her stick-like figure and how she couldn’t ever be with Calvin.

“How’s it going with the ring design that you told me about?” Calvin asked.

“Pretty well. Once I have an idea for the design, the actual production of the piece is pretty simple. I bet you didn’t know I was inspired by you in designing it. You make me feel hopeful and expectant.”

“Your brother told me I was the muse for many of your older pieces. Ashlyn, how long have you been paying attention to me? I doubt you’d agree to date me without a second’s hesitation.” He knew that while Ashlyn looked g

    That afternoon itself, Calvin sent Ashlyn his hotel’s location, and she immediately hailed a taxi there.She knocked on his room door, and he opened it.She was so excited that her face was bright red. “I have something good to tell you.”“Come in,” Calvin said.She threw her bag onto the sofa and sat down on the bed before telling him her good news. He pulled a chair to the bed to face her directly and listened closely, feeling like she was so happy she could sprout wings and fly off.At this moment, his phone rang. He glanced at it. “Your brother’s calling. Give me a second.” He answered the call and walked over to the window.Ashlyn admired him from behind. He had a great figure and looked delectable with one hand on his hip. Her heart raced—this was her first time genuinely feeling seduced by him.“You want me to head back to Genovia? Can’t you deal with it yourself?” Calvin asked.“Alright. Bye.” He sounded incredibly displeased.Was Neil telling him to return to Genovia?

    Calvin didn’t have much time to linger. He left the very next day.Ashlyn was down in the dumps. However, she felt better at the thought of her being home in a few days, and blamed it all on Neil.True enough, Francis kept his word. He didn’t favor Xenia over Ashlyn, and chose Ashlyn to present the ring designs. Perhaps it was because she had experience being in a relationship, so it felt much more sincere when she presented her design for longing. She couldn’t help thinking of Calvin.The client was delighted with her designs and presentation, and even promised to ask for her again the next time.This was Ashlyn’s first successful project since joining Nevera Designs, which was a huge success. She was overjoyed, but she had no one to share it with. Though she could text Calvin, it didn’t help with her longing for him.Though their reunion was only a few days away, it felt like time was passing by excruciatingly slowly.…Genovia, at Neil’s villa.When Calvin arrived, he saw Ne

    In the end, Calvin still handled the matter on Neil’s behalf. The first thing he did was head to Windmere City to have a meal with Raymond, but he didn’t mention what he was doing there. He just chatted with Raymond about life, mentioning that Michelle was his only daughter and Joshua was his only grandchild. Since Raymond and Joshua weren’t staying in the same place, Calvin suggested that he prepare a little gift for Joshua so that he wouldn’t forget about his grandfather.And so, Raymond handed Calvin a crystal ornament to be given to Joshua.Calvin joked, “If he loses or breaks this, he won’t remember you. And if he scratches himself on the shards, Michelle will probably be upset.”Raymond was smart enough to get Calvin’s underlying meaning. He suddenly realized that he should be leaving something behind for his grandson—if he bequeathed everything he had to Merrilyn, Michelle would kill him. Back in the day, Michelle’s results had been affected by Merrilyn’s presence. If he side

    Ashlyn burrowed against Calvin’s chest for a number of minutes, and her soft breasts pressed against him. Calvin had too much to drink, but was still very much awake. His Adam’s apple bobbed with an irrepressible urge.“Ashlyn,” he called in a low voice. His hands smoothed over her back and toward her head, tilting it up before bending down and bringing his lips close to hers.“Hmm?” She looked up at him dazedly.“President Conrad, I’ll give you two some privacy.” The chauffeur couldn’t handle their intimacy any longer and got out of the car.Calvin ignored him, and kissed Ashlyn passionately, pushing her down onto the seat.After a long while, she pushed him away lightly, her face red. “Did you go drinking?”“Yeah, it’s what we always have to do when socializing. Anyway, he’s an old friend.” Calvin ran his fingers through her hair.“Is it because of what Neil wanted you to do?”“Yeah. Why else would I be there?”“Do you feel uncomfortable?” she asked worriedly. “Don’t people

    Michelle laughed dotingly. Though she was only older than Ashlyn by four years, getting married and having a baby was a significant change in her life. Also, she had a boyfriend and a dark past in high school. It was only normal for her to be more mature than Ashlyn.“Okay, okay, I will.” In fact, Michelle already had a few things to say to Neil about this. He barely bothered about the company, and pushed most things to Calvin.“Ashlyn, does it bother you that I’m ordering my brother-in-law around?” Neil asked.“You…” Ashlyn had nothing to say in refute. Also, the way he referred to Calvin as his brother-in-law immediately made her anger vanish.“Mom, Dad, do you guys have anything to say? Are you okay with this?” Ashlyn asked.“Yeah, we’re okay with it,” Clarissa said. They had known Calvin since he was a child. In fact, Damien had been watching him for years and felt that he was a great guy. Their families were on good terms, and at least they knew Calvin wouldn’t hurt or abuse

    Ashlyn was the clingy type. With her arms wrapped around him from behind, she reached up to turn his head around, then stood on her tiptoes, and pressed her lips to his.She was once a rookie at kissing, but she had become a pro thanks to Calvin’s consistent efforts.Perhaps it was because they had known each other since they were kids, and also because Ashlyn had been especially dependent on Calvin. Though they had grown apart for a few years, they both held feelings for each other for a number of years. Now that they had made things clear to each other, their relationship bloomed.When Neil saw them acting so affectionately, he muttered, “God, they make me sick.”Why didn’t he remember going through such a phase? He glanced at Michelle, who was busy playing with Joshua.“Let’s go to the room,” he said.“What? Why?” She was surprised. “I came out here because I thought Joshua would be bored there.”“Let’s just go,” Neil said hoarsely. After that, he dragged her to the bedroom.

    On New Year’s Day, Ashlyn wished her family before excitedly heading over to Calvin’s house.She had already texted him and told him she was on her way.Calvin’s parents, Ray and Dana, stayed in a villa while he himself stayed in a single-story bungalow. Every year during the holidays, he would spend time with his parents. He had already told them that Ashlyn was coming over.Ray and Dana knew about their relationship, and were very much for it. They loved Ashlyn.Ashlyn arrived at around 11:00 a.m. Calvin answered the door when she knocked, and her eyes lit up with joy upon seeing him. “Have you guys been waiting long?”“No, of course not. Come in! It’s cold outside.” He tugged her in, and she stumbled before falling right into his arms. She wasn’t in a rush to break away, though; she loved the way he smelled.Today, she was wearing a white sweater with a red woolen overcoat. She had just washed her hair last night, and it cascaded over her shoulders. A few locks brushed again

    Calvin’s fingers brushed over Ashlyn’s chest with a feather-light touch. He didn’t dare to linger, lest he lost control of himself.While they were caught up in their desire for each other, they suddenly heard the sound of people talking downstairs. It seemed there were guests.“Maybe we should head downstairs,” Ashlyn said.She was excited about what would happen next, but also a little scared. Moreover, Ray and Dana were just downstairs. It would be embarrassing for anything to happen at the moment.Calvin got up and held her hand as they headed downstairs. It turned out that Milly was downstairs chatting with Dana.When he saw her, he frowned. He had tried his best to avoid Milly since she came to Genovia, yet she still managed to find her way to his parents’ house.When Ashlyn saw that the guest was a young woman, she immediately felt uncomfortable. After all, she and Calvin were in their honeymoon period—it didn’t feel nice to have a young woman suddenly visit her boyfriend’

    Benjamin walked to her side and suddenly hugged her. It was as if there were thousands of words that could not be said. Jacey did not refute. 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

    Jacey felt that under Kenny's serious and unsmiling appearance, there was a soft and warm heart.This note looked like it had been around for a long time. 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. If these jewelry can be displayed in the exhibition and let everyon

    "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

    After Benjamin returned home, he showed Ashlyn the jewelry he had taken for Jacey.Ashlyn was very knowledgeable. 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.
