Her make-up completely highlighted her amber eyes, making them look brighter. Her neck is now adorned with a simple gold necklace given to her by President Lu. Earlier this morning, different people came knocking. Together with them are rows of pieces of jewelry, designer dresses, bags, and shoes. They also brought with them some stylists. I was baffled when these people came. But when Secretary Lin entered, I finally realized that they were the people sent by President Lu. He really made a lot of effort for today's event. I'm also a little bit nervous about this meeting. Although I have already met Chairman Lu a lot of times, I was a professor at that time, so it's easier to approach him. But now, I'm going to meet him as his grandson's soon-to-be
(Catherine's POV) It was already late in the evening when we finished talking to the wedding coordinator. I was so amazed by how efficient she is. Even for myself, I don't really have any expectations about this wedding since it's just a contractual one. But, with how Ms. Wang planned the wedding. I can't help but feel mesmerized by it. From the wedding venue to the wedding cake, invitations, food, and beverages, everything was beautiful. We just have one problem right now, which is the gown I'm going to wear. Since this is a rushed wedding, it would be better to wear a ready-made gown, but President Lu insisted on making a custom-made one. It's fine with me with what gown to wear. I don't really care much about it. As long as it can fit me, then it's fine. But President Lu is really giving everyone a hard time. He insisted on his decision and he even offered to pay twice the price just to have it made before the wedding day. I
(Catherine's POV) "Cathy! I might be coming home late. I had a magazine shoot today and the venue is out of town, so there are chances that I might stay there for the night or come home late. You don't have to wait for me, okay?" "Okay, take care on your way, Monique!" Monique dashed out of the apartment carrying her luggage. Her assistant must have been waiting for her in the parking lot. Monique is now back at work. It's already been a couple of days since she started working at Glory World. And for the past few days, she's always full of happiness. No matter how tired she was, her face still glowed with enjoyment. Signing for Glory World must be the right decision. Glancing at the time, it was almost past 8 in the morning. I don't have any classes scheduled for today, so I can just stay at home. 'It's still too early.' I took the dirty plates to the sink after finishing my meal. Since I have nothing to do anyway, I might as
(Third Person’s POV) In a luxurious restaurant, a beautiful lady is silently sipping her tea while glancing at the scenery outside. It’s already spring and the flowers are slowly blossoming. The trees sway elegantly to the breeze of the wind, making the scenery harmonious to look at. This tranquillity was interrupted when a young handsome man took a seat in front, blocking the great view. The lady blinked her eyes twice and looked at the man sitting in front. “Oh, you’re here, President Lu.” The man smiled brightly at the lady sitting elegantly opposite him. “It was a surprise to receive a call from you Ms. Su. 2 weeks haven’t passed yet but you took the initiative to call. So, I’m guessing you have already made your decision.” Catherine reached out to her bag and took a file. Placed it in front of President Lu confidently. “I will marry you if you agree to the conditions written on that file.” Alexander took the file and carefully read each i
(Catherine’s POV) “Cathy, hey! Cathy! Cathy!” Monique’s waving hands flashed in my eyes instantly. “Yes, sorry. What are you saying?” I didn’t notice that my thoughts drifted away. Caught up in a trance, I can’t concentrate on our conversation because the words left by President Lu keep on popping up. “Are you okay? You seem distracted. Is something bothering you? I’m free to listen.” Worry flashed in her small eyes. Her eyes blinked a couple of times while looking at me. Her slender white fingers covered my hands resting on the table, comforting me. I flashed a smile to reassure her that everything was fine. I don’t want to worry her about my current predicament, especially now that she’s having trouble with herself. Pinching her pale white hands, I smiled gently. “Don’t worry. It’s not that serious, I’ll tell you about it soon when I figure things out. By the way, you were talking about some big news. What is it?” Enthusiasm came bac
(Monique’s POV) “Welcome to Glory World Entertainment Ms. Monique Yang” Director Chen stood up and offered his hand. I happily accepted it and said my most heartfelt thanks. “Do you have something to do today, Ms. Yang? If none, would you like to have a tour of the company?” He offered, which I was delighted to hear. I was really curious about how Glory World Entertainment looks inside. I was only able to see the lobby and the 5th floor. And Glory World has more than 20 floors. “Yes, of course. I would love that Director Chen.” He took the contract in his hand and gestured for us to go out. “Let’s go, Ms. Yang.” When we were about to get to the elevator door, his phone suddenly rang. “Excuse me for a moment, Ms. Yang.” He walked a little bit further and answered the phone. That must be the CEO. He was very polite when he was talking and I keep hearing him say, sir. I waited at the corner and looked around just
