Immediately, they left for the restroom. She caught a glimpse of what looked like the back view of Levi. But she could not ascertain if he was the one, because the man was escorted into the private room of the restaurant so she was not able to see his face.
"It can't be Levi. He is just a driver, I must have been thinking a lot about him which makes me think that all men looks like Levi" She thought
Few minutes later, Audrey and Alex came back from the restroom. They paid for the food they are and left the restaurant.
Ashley had worked as a model in the United States for many years and made some money. Now, she spent all her money on this house in order to secure the life of her son, Alex.
She knew that Levi was just a driver. It would be a heavy burden for him to bear the responsibility of being a father when he was totally unprepared.
That was why she had to get everything ready earlier on her own.
On getting outside the restaurant. Ashley said goodbye to her Son. She squatted in front of him and kissed him on the forehead. Alex reached out his hand and patted her head. "Mom, a girl should know how to protect herself when she works outside. Also, don't work too hard"
Audrey's eyes twinkled with amusement when she heard this. The two people in front of her didn't act like a mother and a son, but like a father and a daughter.
"Okay, I will, " Ashley assured him with a bright smile. Alex nodded and left with Audrey.
After that, Su Bei took a taxi to the new house that she had bought with Audrey's help. Without even taking a look at the house or unpacking properly, she just kept her luggage there, changed her clothes, and took another taxi straight to the Stone Group Headquarters.
She had met Levi twice before their marriage both times at a friend's party. One of the guests had been a man called Steve Stone, who was said to be from the Stone Group. After getting too drunk, he had asked his driver to pick him up.
And both times, the driver who came to pick him up was Levi Since Levi's tenmperament was unique and different from other drivers' dispositions,
Ashley had noticed him at a glance. She wasn't familiar with Steve, so she couldn't ask him about his driver. Therefore, she decided to go to the Stone Group Headquarters in person to find Levi.
She walked elegantly into the building in her high-heeled shoes. When she arrived at the reception desk, she asked politely, "Excuse me, Good afternoon"
"Good afternoon Ma" the receptionist replied to her greeting
"May I see Levi Stone? If i'm not wrong, he works for Mr. Steve Stone"
"Tm sorry, Miss. You can't meet him without an appointment" The receptionist took a look at the woman in front of her and found that she was beautiful.
Therefore, she chose to act very polite, but she didn't dare to break the Company's rules.
Ashley was taken aback by her response. Did meeting a driver in their company also need an appointment? The Stone Group was really an extraordinary Company!
Ashley had no choice but to ask, "Then can I make an appointment now?"
"Of course. I will inform you of the result in about fifteen days, " the receptionist replied politely.
"Fifteen days? What kind of driver was he?" Why was there so much of a build-up just to meet him?
Ashley couldn't wait that long. But she didn't have Levi's phone number or address. She didn't know where else to find him except at the Stone Group Headquarters, so she relented.
"Okay. Please make an appointment for me."
"Alright Ma. I would do so immediately"
"Thank you. But by the way, is there any other way I can contact him or see him without waiting for fifteen days?"
The receptionist was used to hearing this, because many people wanted to see Levi as soon as possible. Without skipping a beat, she smiled politely and said, "Sorry, but no"
But in her heart, she scoffed and thought, "Mr. Stone is not a person who is easy to meet. These women are getting bolder and bolder."
"Do they think they can get anything just because of their beauty? Otherwise, why would they come to make an appointment?"
Ashley had no choice but to leave and wait for the result. I have already known that the Stone Group is one of the most powerful companies in Carrivile City.
Five years ago, I was able to meet the young master of the Stone Group in person, but now, I can't even see a driver of the group. I didn't expect that things have really changed over the past five years! " Ashley thought secretly.
Suddenly, she saw a car pull up to the entrance. The window of the driver's seat was rolled down, and the car was moving very slowly, which gave Ashley enough time to see the driver's face. It was that same familiar and handsome face that she came to see!
"What's happening to me. Why is it that every man I'm seeing today looks like Levi. Anyways I believe the person I just saw now is Levi since, he is a driver in this company"
"But what if I can get his number from the receptionist......... Since he is just the personal driver of the family head of the Stones. She should be able to give me since she should have all the workers personal information incase of emergencies" Ashley thought .
She turned back to the receptionist "Excuse me, I'm so sorry to bother you again. Can I get Levi Stone's number from you" she said blinking her eyelids at the receptionist in hope that her request would be granted.
"I'm so sorry Ma. I can't give it out since I don't know you and also I don't know what you want to do with it" the receptionist replied her eyeing her
"Alright. Thank you. Have a nice day"
"And you too. Ma'am"
"Wow, their level of confidentiality is ............. Just for an ordinary driver. I can't get his number. Hmmmp" Ashley thought and she left
As she was going, she was thinking about the car that she just saw at the entrance. The person driving that car looks so much like Levi.Just then the same the car passed her, Ashley immediately recognized the man who was sitting in the driver's seat. It was her husband, Levi! She is 100 percent sure that the person she saw at the restaurant and in the car previously was him.It seemed that he was more mature than five years ago, and temperament seemed to be calmer and wiser than before. She had always known that he had a handsome face, but she had never thought that even his side profile would look this good. His sharp jawline looked perfect. even at a glance, his"Levi!" she cried out without thinking. Hearing this, the man turned his head sideways and shot her a cold glance, but then he turned back to the front and continued to step on the accelerator without looking at her anymore. The car quickly moved forward.In just a moment, he had already put considerable distance between h
Levi trudged back to his car. He sat in the driver's seat with his eyes closed a long time before he finally calmed down.The sudden sound of his phone ringing interrupted his train of thought. He picked up the phone and said in a hoarse voice, "Mom."Mrs Emily Stone, an elegant woman. She has been the head of the family for years since the death of Levi's father. So the family has been directed by her firm grip, she left the position for Levi 6 years ago when she knew he was matured enough to lead the family."Hi Son. Can we meet. I have something important to discuss with you." Mrs Stone said excitedly on the phone " Alright Mom. Where do you want us to meet" he replied her"At the restaurant opposite your company that your employees visit during lunch""Okay Ma. See you soon" he hung up the call In a fancy restaurant, the elegant Mrs. Stone looked at her son's long face, and asked worriedly, "What happened?""Nothing! Levi lowered his head and cut the steak carefully, but his mov
With her long legs and strong but slender figure, Ashley was particularly eye- catching in the crowd."Ashley, come here, " Maria called excitedly. "You look even more graceful now than when you were on the stage. You're really a treasure."Maria was happy. She was able to get a model a beautiful one at that, so she wanted her to look more beautiful and show her off to everyone by bringing her out."Thank you, Maria. I'l count on your care and help in the future, " Ashley said, raising the corners of her delicate red lips into a smile."Of course. You are my model now. Go inside. You should first establish a basic friendship with the interviewers tonight and try to pass the initial test in a few days," Maria smiled.Ashley nodded and walked along the red carpet. She had done this before, so she was not anxious at all. She walked in a calm and elegant manner, exuding confidence from every inch of her body. She walked as if she was born a model and with grace and also as if the runway
"Look over there. Those are all supermodels from Europe and America!" The man pointed in another direction and said, "And those women over there; are all new but outstanding supermodels from our country Carrivile Country" Steven said to his brotherLevi looked up at him with an utterly uninterested expression on his cold face. "When can we leave or should I say when are we leaving?""Are you so unwilling to stay here? Wait, I don't understand you again brother. What kind of women do you like? You refused the highly cultured ladies; the very beautiful socialites of Carrivile, you rejected them""Again, you said you don't like the gentle and dignified female doctors; you are not interested in female elites either; and you are not bothered to even sneak a glance at even the famous actresses."Steven said all at once " But Brother, at least I'm begging you let one of these supermodels here be able to attract your attention. You would be able to pick one, right?"Steven asked, throwing
"Ashley, you left in a hurry just now. I didn't have the chance to give this to you!" Maria handed an exquisitely-packaged box to her. "Our company has prepared this gift for every model who is attending this party. You can give it to any of the judges to express your gratitude and leave them a good impression of both you and our company"Ashley took the box with a graceful smile."Thank you, Maria. I'll go ahead, then"Looking at Ashley's receding figure, Maria let out a sigh of relief.She had no choice but to follow Lucia's orders, because she was the boss and anyone that wants to survive in this industry must do according to her bidding. She felt pity for Ashley since she had both the looks and the talent needed to become a successful model, so it would not be difficult for her to get selected.But it stills baffles Maria how Ashley offended Lucia that the latter wants to cut off her wings before she can even fly. “There is nothing I can do for her my hands are crossed. I hope
That mysterious woman had finally shown up again!Except for a quick glance in the afternoon, the two of them hadn't seen each other for five years.In Levi's mind, she was still the childlike girl who had said she had a little favor to ask him in the Civil Affairs Bureau.With coldness in his eyes, he asked slowly,"Do I know you?"A trace of sadness flashed in Ashley's eyes. It turned out that he had forgotten everything.But it didn't matter. They hadn't seen each other for a long time, so she didn't expect him to remember her."Mr. Stone, my name is Ashley. Ashley Brown" But it was very painful that he does not remember her even after what they shared that evening which later produced Alex, her handsome son. The thought of Alex brought calmness to Ashleys disturbed mind.She felt she can understand his plight since she left him in a very unreasonable manner that belittles his dignity as a man.The thought of Alex brought calmness to Ashleys disturbed mind."Five years ago, I got t
Realizing that Levi wasn't willing to give her his phone number, Ashley faltered slightly, and a touch of regret and disappointment flashed through her eyes. Just when she was about to withdraw her hand, however, he reached out and took the gift box."Mr. Stone!" Ashley exclaimed with renewed joy in her eyes. "I’ve written my phone number there. Please contact me after you cool off or when you feel you are ready to listen to what I have to say""Do you think the anger of five years can disappear in a moment?" Levi took the gift, clenching it with his slender fingers, and then set his glass down on the table with a thud, got up, and strode out of the hall.He tightened his grip on the gift box until his blue veins protruded from his fingers.“Anger of five years” Ashley wondered in confusion. Hadn't he said that he didn't remember her? In that case, how could he be angry at her for five years? Perhaps he did remember her, but he hated her for leaving without informing him. She had prob
Maria could sense a lot of hostility between the two of them. No wonder Lucia had given her such a ruthless task as soon as she had seen Ashley.Lucia's lips curved up into a gentle smile. "Yes, I like this job. She turned to Maria and said, Miss Maria, Ashley is my very good sister. Please take care of her for my sake, okay?"Maria eyed Lucias pretentious attitude but she had no choice but to respond to her Miss Brown. It is wonderful for you to trust me with your very good sister. Be sure that I would take very good care of her for your sake she said playing more emphasis on the I would take good care of her for your sake Ashley had already known that it wouldn't be easy for her to develop her career in Cariville Country.
