Chapter 19 Unexpected
Chapter 19 Unexpected
Austin was looking forward to it. As long as Vivian agreed, she could put on the best clothes, stand in
the dazzling light and enjoy the envious and jealous eyes of thousands of people. She would always
live a life that others couldn't. Wasn't she a princess?
He had never seen her holding a doll happily in her childhood, and how innocent she was when she
dreamed of the good life of the princess.
"Okay." Vivian said slowly with a smile on her face.
Austin was surprised and nodded firmly.
The two of them walked to the square unconsciously. The green lawn was full of people who were
having a picnic. The child raised the balloon high in the air and looked up while running. A child tripped
and fell, but he stood up quickly and patted the mud on his body, smiling at his parents who were
teaching him a lesson.
He didn't forget to tightly grasp the rope tied to the balloon in his hand. He put one hand beside his
head and swore with a smile that he wouldn't be naughty any more. Seeing his parents leave, he
waved his hand to call his friends who were waiting aside, they started chasing and playing.
"When we were children, we didn't think too much. We just had meals and went to school every day. At
night, we read little books in bed. We didn't expect that we would have any obstacles in the future.
Looking at the carefree smile of a child, make me felt very happy."
The sun shone on Vivian's face, leaving a layer of golden shadow on her curly eyelashes. She gently
blinked and looked very naughty. She said with a smile, and her dimples were deep.
"Yes, what was your childhood like?"
"Me?" After a pause, Vivian smiled slightly and said, "I don't have a childhood. Do you believe me?"
When she was a child, her mother died a long time ago, and her brother disappeared. At that time, her
father was still the one who loved her the most. He crazily found her brother despite the cost of a lot of
money. Every time he heard any news, he would immediately track it down, but in the end, he still got
nothing.
And Riley always bullied her. She acted like a spoiled child in front of her father, took away the beautiful
clothes, forced the servants to speak for her, and complained first. Kelly bullied her with the help of
Kelly.
At that time, she was still a little girl. At first, she was scared by Riley's fearless behavior and didn't dare
to resist. Later, she gradually became numb. Without her father's protection, she hid in a corner and
watched them laughing happily. She hid in her room and read silently.
Later, she got excellent grades and was admitted to a key school. Her father finally valued her and took
care of her from time to time, which was also the reason why Riley hated her more. She insisted that
she wanted to study hard to please her father.
Thinking of this, the light in Vivian's eyes dimmed. She pretended to be fine and smiled at Austin.
"I believe. I also good times and bad times in the Lu Family." Austin said word by word, with a firm look
in his eyes. He frowned slightly. He didn't like the depressed look of Vivian! He wanted to tell her that
he was her brother, but it was not the right time yet.
He also remembered his childhood. He had one or two like-minded friends in the orphanage. They
would not laugh at his unreasonable dream. They accompanied him to grow up, and receive good
treatment in the Lu Family. He would never forget the kindness of the Lu Family all his life.
He didn't remember what had happened in his childhood until later, but it was too late.
It turned out that when Vivian was suffering the pain alone, he lived a life better than a king.
"Well, I always think that except myself, all the children born in rich families are happy. They can get
whatever they want with an unlimited amount of money. If they are bullied outside, someone will teach
them a lesson and bury them for you."
While saying that, Vivian held the belt of her bag tightly with her hands and forced a smile. She knew
that he was not her brother. He was the descendant of the Lu Family, a respected big shot, and had
nothing to do with her.
She couldn't even have the last fantasy. They were much different, but they were much alike. It was
really complicated.
"But poor children can also live a happy life, even if they always hungry. I would rather choose a poor
family." Austin looked at the lively child in front of him with affection in his eyes.
"I agree!" Vivian nodded her head and smiled at the children who were hiding behind her. She turned
around to play with them. Austin also started running, holding Vivian's hand. Property © 2024 N0(v)elDrama.Org.
In the distance, a pair of beautiful eyes constantly glanced at the scene in front of them, with an
inexplicable smile in the bottom of his eyes.
"Boss, this is an invitation. I think you'd better have a look at it in person." The assistant pushed the
envelope to Jeffrey's desk and put her hands behind her back.
Normally, the CEO would reject many banquets of various sizes, but today's invitation could not be
underestimated. He could not make up his mind for a moment, so he had to ask the CEO to personally
check it.
Hearing this, Jeffrey raised his eyebrows. She wondered what kind of invitation it was that needed to
be checked by himself? He slowly opened his mouth and pulled out a simple and elaborate invitation.
The vigorous and powerful words were first shown in front of him - the Lu Group.
He had indeed heard that the Lu Group was making great efforts to raise money and promote
cooperation with big companies recently. It seemed that they were going to make a good name in the
ranking list!
Austin was a shrewd man. He didn't like to put his good interests in front of him. He just liked to play
tricks and make special things. He would secretly sign a contract with the company and then hold a
high-profile celebration party.
He had never seen any banquet before, but he had to attend Austin's show! He wanted to compete
with Austin in person.
Jeffrey put the invitation lightly on the table and lazily leaned against the leather chair. Staring at the
invitation with his malicious and long eyes, he smiled ambiguously.
He came up with a good idea!
"I know. You can go ahead with your work. By the way, I have something to deal with this afternoon.
You have to take good care of the company. You'd better not call me if there is no emergency!" Jeffrey
said coldly.
The assistant looked at the sullen face of the president and nodded helplessly. The president was
talking to him, but his eyes were looking at the other side. People who didn't know him might think that
he was talking to the air.
Without thinking too much, he pushed the door open and left.
Vivian received a call from Jeffrey. She was drinking milk tea leisurely in a cafe. She was still making a
plan, planning her goal and making some small requirements that she had to work hard to achieve in
the future to enrich herself.
His unreasonable and domineering request broke the beautiful and quiet personal time.
Vivian pouted and looked out of the window from time to time. Then she lowered her head and touched
the cover of the notebook.
"Where are we going?"
"I'll take you to buy clothes."
"What?" With her eyes wide open, Vivian was confused. Her clothes were so good that even a
professional stylist couldn't see her shortcomings. How could this man think she need new close?
"No, thanks! I'm still wearing my clothes. I don't need new ones!" She shouted and didn't know what to
do. She didn't want to be a woman who was extravagant the money from a man. What was the
difference between being a prostitute?
"Do you have any formal clothes for some important occasions?" Jeffrey turned her head and glanced
at her jeans and red stripe blouse.
Sometimes, Vivian would try to match herself with the punk style. It was not bad to have a fresh and
bright style, but this cloth was suitable for a gardener rather than a lady who went to fancy parties.
She could wear whatever she liked. She was not someone's puppet.
After weighing the pros and cons, Vivian was sure that she didn't have any gorgeous clothes. Thinking
of the party that she promised Austin, which was held by his company, she though at least she should
wear a dress.
It was not bad to buy new clothes!
"I have to attend a party. You must go with me!"
"What?"
"I'll take you to try on the clothes and dress up. We'll set out together in the evening." Speaking of this,
Jeffrey's eyes flashed with complacency. He could imagine how stunning she would be when she
appeared in front of everyone.
Before Vivian could explain, she was taken off her clothes and dressed up!
That night, different walks of people invited by the Lu Group came one after another. They walked over
the red carpet at the door and exchanged greetings with their partners.
A party held by the Lu Group and the Pei Group had caused a sensation in the biggest hotel in the H
City. Exquisite crystal lights, bright floor and priceless paintings could be seen everywhere in the spiral
staircase.
Riley tugged at her low cut dress and winked at Jay who was picking up the bottle.
She attended the party as Jay's date, but she didn't know if Vivian was Austin's date! How could that
bitch get such an honor? She would rather destroy today's good play than let Vivian succeed.
Jay and Austin clinked glasses and drank them up politely. The two big shots at the main party today
just gathered for a while, and then many guests came to greet them.
"It seems that Mr. Lu is very busy today." Jay smiled and patted on Austin's shoulder. When he was
about to ask who his date was, he was distracted by Jeffrey, who just entered the room.
Vivian wore a long strapless white dress which was very exquisite. The fresh and lovely makeup on her
delicate face made her more radiant. She reached out and hooked Jeffrey, who was wearing a well cut
black suit, with a smile on her face.
When she saw Austin, she looked at him apologetically. She didn't expect that Jeffrey would take her to
such an occasion, and even broke the appointment with Austin. She felt very guilty.
As soon as the two appeared, they attracted a lot of attention and became the focus of the field. It was
rare that Mr. Shen, who had never shown up, even brought a date!
"Sorry, Mr. Lu. I'm late." Jeffrey said indifferently. He glanced at Austin's calm face and deliberately held
Vivian's hand tightly.
"This is my date, Vivian," Jeffrey looked at him meaningfully and said, "You have already know each
other."
"Mr. Lu." Vivian looked at him apologetically.
"Just call me Austin. It's so weird to call me Mr. Lu."
Austin smiled. Just now, Vivian called in a hurry to tell him that she had broken the appointment, but he
didn't expect that she would appear at his banquet.
Looking at the two having conversations, Jeffrey felt a little depressed.
