Chapter 58: Countless Opportunities Ahead of Young Women
When Cheyenne left Iker’s estate, she felt everyone’s gaze on her had changed. They probably thought she was a woman who seduced Iker…
She was so wrongly accused; it was just an accident, but now it seemed impossible to explain herself.
Luckily, Cheyenne was naturally optimistic. She didn’t care how others saw her.
The next day, she finally didn’t have to go to the Todd mansion for checking Iker. She could finally sleep in and turn off her alarm clock without worry.
But not even half an hour later, her phone rang loudly and woke her up from a deep sleep. It was Kate calling with some big news to share, which made Cheyenne’s drowsiness disappeared without a trace.
She sat up and lay in bed with a white blanket, her slender legs intertwined.
“What’s the good news?”
“Ah… I’m so excited. I feel like there are pink bubbles everywhere in front of me, Cheyenne, listen to me.”
Cheyenne was speechless. ‘You’ve been beating around the bush for so long, just say it!’
“The good news is that Jerome will be performing near downtown tomorrow night!”
It was said that he would be endorsing the Foley Group’s new product, so there would be a commercial performance.
The news had been confirmed and all the girls in Akloit were screaming about it. Tomorrow night’s concert would definitely be packed.
Who was Jerome?
Cheyenne had a puzzled look on her face.
Since falling in love with Kelvin, she hadn’t been starstruck anymore, let alone paying attention to these idols.
“I knew you wouldn’t know him. Ah… Jerome was the champion of ‘Rising Star’ three years ago. He was called Fairy.”
A man called “Fairy”?
“I think I won’t go.”
The location was at one of Kelvin’s countless industries under the Foley Group – the department store building.
Although the probability of meeting him was almost zero, Cheyenne couldn’t convince herself to step into his territory.
Kate seemed to know what was going on inside Cheyenne’s head and used a provocative tactic to ask her, “Cheyenne, have you not moved on from him yet?”
Cheyenne remained silent.
It wasn’t easy for her to forget the man she had loved for eight years. During this time, she didn’t actively seek out news about him or want to know how happy he was with Abbie. She just lived her life in a plain and simple way.
She thought she had forgotten Kelvin already but hearing his name brought back memories of the past once again. She still couldn’t forget him.
“I don’t know,” Cheyenne replied.
Kate got excited and raised her voice a few degrees higher than before. “That’s exactly why you should go!”
“You’re only twenty-one years old with great time ahead of you. Kelvin is nothing but a betrayal.” Kate continued passionately.
“Once you see more outstanding men, then you’ll realize that there are countless opportunities waiting for young women like us!” Kate’s words were met with muffled laughter from somewhere outside where she was located.
“Countless opportunities waiting for young women like us!” Such ambitious words came from the mouth of an innocent-looking girl.
The young man sitting in the restaurant wearing a black jacket couldn’t help but burst out laughing. His turkeybill cap was pressed down two inches, and he glanced at Kate from the corner of his eye.
Today she wore a white sleeveless dress that fell to her knees, revealing a pair of slender and delicate legs. Her exquisite curls were tied up into a bun on top of her head, with a long neck and soft shoulder lines. She was clearly a beauty.
But her bold words had scared him.NôvelDrama.Org holds this content.
As he listened to her praise himself, Jerome felt an amused smile spread across his face. He never expected that just coming out for coffee would lead him to meet a fan.
Kate naturally noticed that something was off in the atmosphere at this moment and quickly hung up the phone with flushed cheeks. Turning around, she glared at Jerome with those crystal-clear and stunning eyes. “What are you laughing at? Laugh again, I dare you!”
She seemed like an adorable innocent little girl on the outside but inside she was violent and fierce.
Jerome unconsciously coughed twice and pulled his cap down lower over his head, getting up to pay for his coffee at the bar counter before leaving…
The Foley Villa
Abbie sat gracefully on the sofa opposite an overweight middle-aged man wearing black suit who had some balding spots on top of his head.
Taking a sip of the tea, he raised her eyebrows and looked at Abbie.
“It’s been three years, little niece, and you’ve become even more beautiful. I hope your condition has improved?”
Abbie had a congenital heart disease and couldn’t handle too much stress or emotional fluctuations. Because of this illness, she was much more fragile than her peers from an early age, with an extremely limited lifestyle: home-hospital-school, repeating the same cycle over and over again.
“Thank you for your concern, Uncle. My condition has improved quite a bit.” Over these past three years, she had been resting on the small island in Metshire and her condition had stabilized quite well. Kelvin had searched high and low for famous doctors to help treat her illness; although it couldn’t be cured completely, it could at least be controlled.
Cody let out a long sigh upon hearing this news before saying to Abbie, “Since you’re back in the country, staying here isn’t really appropriate anymore. Why don’t you come live with me at the Berry mansion?”
Return to the Berry mansion? Abbie hesitated slightly as she wasn’t too keen on that idea.
The Foley family founded the company together with the Berry family. Although the Foley family held the most shares, Foster Berry also owned a lot of shares.
An unfortunate car accident took away both of Abbie’s parents’ lives, leaving old Mr. Foley feeling guilty, so he brought her back to live with his own family when she was just fourteen while Kelvin was fifteen-years-old.
He became her nominal “brother” after she entered the Foley family, who treated her like a daughter except for old Mr. Foley. He always saw her as an outsider. Abbie didn’t understand why old Mr. Foley had brought her back to the Foley mansion years ago but treated her so poorly later on.
For all these years, she had been living under someone else’s roof and her uncle Cody never once mentioned taking her back home. Now he suddenly showed up and was being overly attentive. Abbie believed there was something fishy going on.
