Chapter 431

On the way to Speed, Ashley got a call from Emily.

Ashley answered “Grandma.”

“Ashley, Emily said with a kind smile. Sam told me you’d been working incredibly hard lately, sometimes pulling all–nighters. One of my friends sent me some tonics recently, and I’ve had some sent to you. Don’t forget it.”

Ashley knew that even if she refused, Emily wouldn’t listen, so she said, “I know. Thank you, Grandma.”

Emily chuckled, then added, “Oh, right. I talked to Chase a while back, and he agreed to get along with you. After all, regardless of anything else, you’re Sam’s mother. It’s not good for his growth and well–being if you two act like strangers.”

So, that was why Chase had been SO unusually nice at the symposium? Ashley said indifferently, “Okay, I understand.”

After a while, Ashley hung up. She arrived at Speed, and Tanya wasn’t there. George saw her and smiled.“Happy Valentine’s Day, Ms. Jones. Did you get any flowers?”

Before Ashley could answer, a Eternal employee who’d come with her chimed in, “Yes! A huge bouquet of roses! We were so jealous of her.”

George chuckled. The next second, Catherine appeared out of nowhere.“That’s it? Nothing else?”

The Eternal employee stammered, “Well…”

་་

“So, just flowers, huh?” Catherine scoffed.“That’s funny. It’s just bunch of roses and you guys are so happy. Guess what? Tanya got a mountain of gifts this morning, not to mention a stake in Speed from my future cousin–in–law! You should really broaden your outlook.

George didn’t know what to say. That was unarguable.

Seeing Ashley’s confused expression, George whispered to her, “Apparently, Miss Mond is very popular, like a dream girl for those rich guys. Knowing that Mr. Sterling was her boyfriend, they wouldn’t dare make a move. But today’s Valentine’s Day, right? It’s a perfect excuse and they anonymously sent Miss Mond flowers and gifts. They almost filled her office!”

Before Ashley could react, he continued, “But Mr. Sterling was way better than them. He openly gifted Miss Mond a piece of stock in Speed!”

“I’ve never seen anyone spoil their girlfriend like that! We wouldn’t believe it if we didn’t see it with our own eyes!”
