Chatper 514
The driver chatted with Christina all the way and told her a lot of good things about this kind
person.
The more he spoke, the more excited he became. If he was not driving, he would probably be
dancing with joy.
Christina really admired this kind person. Out of curiosity, she asked, “Then why isn’t there any
information about him in this city on the Inte?”
There was indeed none. When she browsed the webpage, she did not find any of the
information the driver had mentioned. It could be said that there was not a single piece of
information.
“He’s low-key and never epts interviews. You guys definitely don’t know him. He does good
deeds without leaving his
name.”
From N?velDrama.Org.
“That’s really low-key.” In Athana, some people donated two thousand dors and even bought
a spot in the trending topics, for fear that others would not know.
When Christina entered thepany, the driver enthusiastically said that it was not easy to get
a taxi here, so he might as well wait for her toe out and drive her back. Christina was also
happy to do so.
Half an hourter, Christina came out, disappointed as expected. A gust of cold wind made her
shiver. The person at the front desk told her that the boss was not at work yet and that the
appointment had been reported, so she had to wait a little longer.
As Christina got into the car, all the cells in her body warmed up. She adjusted her jacket and
said, “Let’s go back to the hotel.”
“You said your name is Christina, right? Christina, you still haven’t seen the boss?” asked the
driver.
Christina was not in a very good mood and only said lightly, “Yes, maybe he doesn’t want to
see me. Let’s go back to the hotel. I’ll give you more moneyter.”
The car started, but the driver did not drive too fast. “Christina, don’t be unhappy. Do you see
the clouds in that corner? It should snow at night. It looks better in our city because our
buildings aren’t very tall. The snow umted on the roof is like a pce in a fairy tale. It’s
beautiful. Just wait and see, I believe it will definitely snow.”
Christina was amused. “If you’re so eloquent, why aren’t you in sales?”
“The sales results and sry are unstable. I need a stable ie. Otherwise, I won’t feel at
ease. I’ll always be worried that I won’t be able to have another meal.”
“I guess that’s true to a certain extent. Everyone’s choices are different. Some people like this
kind of uncertainty as a kind of challenge. Others like an easy life and don’t like to run around. It
depends on what life a person wants.”
The driver smiled and scratched his head. “Haha, Christina, what you said makes sense.
Although I don’t understand, it sounds very right.”
Christina was amused again.
Because it was too cold, the car drove back to Sapphire Hotel.
The driver ced a hand on Christina’s shoulder and was about to tell her to go over to watch
the snow at night when Christina threw him over her shoulder.
Her reflexes took over and she instinctively took precautions.
The driver was lying on his back, grimacing in pain. Christina stood awkwardly at the side and
reached out to grab his hand, but she was rejected. “Christina, I just wanted to tell you that it
would look better if you went to that ce at night to look at the snow. Sapphire Hotel has a
viewing tform that can look at the snow.”
The driver rubbed his butt and shoulders while groaning in pain.
This made Christina even more apologetic. “Sorry, it’s a conditioned reflex. In the future, stand
in front of me and talk to me. Don’t pat my shoulder or touch me from behind.”
After saying that, she was still a little worried. “Why don’t I take you to the hospital to take a
look? Just in case you hurt your bones.”
He had fallen quite hard.
The driver quickly waved his hand and shook his head like a rattle drum. “No need, no need. I’m
wearing a down jacket. I just fell on my butt. I’ll be fine after resting for a while.”
“I’llpensate you. Give me your number and I’ll transfer it to you.”
As she spoke, Christina nced at the QR code on the car. “I’m sorry. I’m just like this. I feel
more at ease if you give me a number.”
“Just transfer me 100 dors. If there’s a problem, I’ll just take a break in the afternoon.”
Christina transferred 400 dors to him. “I’ve transferred it to you. You can rest for the next few
days. Now that you have my phone number, feel free to contact me if you have any problems. I’ll
be in charge of the follow-up treatment.”
“No need, no need. Christina, it’s really not necessary. It’s a small matter. Goodbye, Christina.
I’ll get going first.” The driver limped and opened the car door. He started the car and left
quickly, afraid that Christina would drag him to the hospital for
treatment.
Christina nodded and waved goodbye. Sigh, she had caused him to have such a hard fall onto
the ground. Why couldn’t she change this habit of hers?
On the top floor.
The man stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling window with one hand on the window and a
cigarette in the corner of his mouth. Because of his smile, the cigarette trembled and the lighter
lit up with a click. The smoke surrounded his handsome facial features and blurred his smiling
face. He instructed Ethan behind him in a low voice, “Give Benjaminpensation.”
Ethan nodded and asked, “Mr. Turner, should we get someone else to protect you?”
Joseph took a puff of his cigarette and blew out a smoke ring. His voice was low and maic.
“There’s no need. She has been running around for two days and it has been quite cold. It’s
going to snow at night.”
He would not torture her anymore.
Ethan replied respectfully, “Yes, Mr. Turner.”
At night, it really snowed. Christina treated it as a vacation. She calmed herself down, ate, and
yed as she should. Fortunately, her mother did not blow up her phone.
Snowkes fell from the sky and danced in the air. There were already many people standing at
the hotel’s snow observation tform/ Perhaps they had already known that snow would
descend at night.
The snowkes in the sky were getting heavier and heavier. Without the rain mixed in, the
snowkes piled up faster and faster. Just like the driver said, the city was really beautiful when
it was covered in snow.
There were more people at the snow observation tform, and Christina did not want to
squeeze amongst them.
After changing her clothes and putting on a blue sweater, Christina threw on a white coat,
jeans, and Doc Martens. It was very casual and simple.
Gathering her white coat, the cold wind crept into her sweater. It was a little cold. She turned
around and went to a quiet ce in the hotel. There was a swing, a table, and three chairs.
On her first day here, Christina realized that this ce was very quiet. Not many people came
and went, causing the snow to be umted. Christina sat on the chair and looked up at the
snow falling slowly from the sky. Every snowke was so pure, so white, and its shape was so
clear.
Suddenly, when she felt a weight on her shoulders, she turned her head and realized that
someone had ced a ck down jacket on her shoulders. Just as she was about to get up, a
familiar voice came from behind. “Ms. Yamin, you’re quite leisurely and elegant. Are you
watching the snow?”
Christina turned her head with a swoosh and a big ck umbre appeared above her head.
The man was wearing a ck coat with a high gray cor. His handsome and impable facial
features were above her. He was busy fixing the big umbre on the shelf.
At this moment, Christina was already in a daze. Her heart was racing, and she did not know
where to start. Should she ask him why he was here? Or should she ask him how he knew she
was here?
Without waiting for Christina to ask, Joseph slowly walked to another seat and sat opposite
Christina. His lips curled into a charming smile. “Are you looking for me?”
Christina scoffed. When did she look for him? Wait a minute, why was he the one to ask her this
question? This was not right.
“Wait a moment. I’ll ask you a few questions first.” Christina was about to take off the jacket on
her shoulders and return it to Joseph.
Joseph sat on the chair elegantly. He crossed his legs and looked at Christina’s exquisite face.
“Put it on. It’ll be coldter. It’s snowing and it’s not suitable to wear a coat. The jacket is new
and hasn’t been worn.”
“Thank you.” Christina thanked him.
Joseph continued to look at her calmly. He raised his hand and said gently, “Ask away.”
After a moment of silence, Christina stared at Joseph. At this moment, his aura was different.
For some reason, she felt like he was suppressing her, but she did not lose. “Firstly, how did
you know I was here? Secondly, did you misunderstand something? I’m not looking for you.”
The snow was still falling. Under the big ck umbre, the two of them were chatting. At first
nce, it looked like they were talking about everything under the sky. Joseph spoke softly, his
pace neither fast nor slow. He simply pulled his aura back. “Ms. Yamin, I’m afraid you’ve
misunderstood something. This hotel is my permanent hotel. I’m from Sapphire City.
Secondly… aren’t you looking for Xaynum’s boss?”
Christina was speechless. If she still did not understand what he meant, she would be an idiot.
Therefore, the person she was looking for was originally the Roberts family. She had traveled
thousands of miles to look for someone she already knew. It was really funny.
After sorting out her thoughts, Christina asked, “So when did youe to Sapphire City?”
Joseph asked calmly, “When did you make an appointment?”
Christina took a deep breath. She ced her elbows on the table and spread them out, feeling
speechless. “So you’re saying that I called you back from/Athana? Are you joking with me? All
because of a deal that might not seed?”
At this moment, Christina thought of something and was confused. “Wait, aren’t you a
university professor?”
Christina remembered that Joseph had not denied itst time.
Joseph looked at Christina’s serious expression and chuckled. “I never said anything about my
profession.”
The two of them seemed to be in a debate. “But you gave an example of Frank, didn’t you?” At
that time, Joseph gave an example of Frank as a CEO who wouldn’t want to work with her on
such a project.
She thought that it definitely would not happen, so she naturally ruled out his identity as CEO.
Coupled with his serious expression, there was no doubt at all.
Joseph’s lips curled into a smile as he bewitched Christina. His pleasant and maic voice
sounded again. “Frank is Frank. I’m me.”
This reason was not bad, not bad at all.
Christina was speechless. She silently gave Joseph Turner a thumbs up. However, she was a
little angry in her heart and felt that she had been tricked. “You’re amazing. I should call you Mr.
Turner now, right? Mr. Turner, may I ask why a big CEO like youcks the hundreds of
thousands of dors I gave you?”
Joseph naturally noticed Christina’s unhappiness. “What if I say it’s because of you?”
Because of her? These words inevitably made Christina’s heart tremble. Their eyes met, and
Christina’s heart skipped a beat. She subconsciously held her breath and did not say anything.
Joseph’s eyes were dark and deep, like a bottomless ocean. He stared fixedly at Christina’s
exquisite facial features, and the hot air he exhaled on a cold day dissipated.
Christina licked her slightly dry lips and looked away. She had already forgotten her displeasure
just now. “Didn’t you say that you believe in non-marriage?”
Moreover, they had agreed not to talk about feelings. She was almost 30 years old, so she
naturally understood the other meaning in Joseph’s words. He was flirting with her.
“ns can’t keep up with changes. ns change with the person you meet. Does Ms. Yamin
have such an idea?”
Joseph gave Christina an open-ended question again.
Why was it that every time Joseph asked her a question, she would subconsciously think about
it and ponder over it faster?
“You’re silent. I’m not in a hurry. This answer can be answered slowly. Weren’t you anxious to
find me? Tell me what you
think.”
Joseph did not like people making decisions under pressure and nervousness. Wanting a clear-
headed answer from Christina, he began to change the topic. The snow continued to fall and
the weather was quite cold. He also noticed that Christina’s hands were moving and figured that
she should be cold. “I don’t like to talk about cooperation outside in the cold. Ms. Yamin, shall
we change the venue?”
Christina felt quite cold. So be it. She agreed readily. “Sure. Where are we going?”
“My room, do you mind?”
“There’s nothing to mind. We’re only talking about cooperation, so there’s no need for me to
make a fuss. I believe in Mr.
Turner’s character.”
Joseph chuckled, making Christina doubt whether she could trust him. This man was starting
to be unpredictable. Christina
felt like she had been tricked.
