Chapter 150: Stella Weston Of New York

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

It would take about 16 hours to drive to New York from Orlando.

Jordan drove a little slower this time, so they took one full day to arrive in New York.

New York is a world-class international metropolis where there are many foreigners.

Jordan had visited New York many times in the past three years.

However, he would come with Hailey each time, and apart from staying in the hotel, he would spend the rest of his trip shopping with her.

So far, he hadn’t had the chance to appreciate the charm of the city properly.

Now, he had plenty of time to experience it with Victoria and explore the attractions one by one.

They drove to the downtown area of New York City, and Jordan found that the city roads were in good condition and the drivers were better.

There was great racial diversity in this city, and the pedestrians on the streets were of many ethnicities.

Victoria rolled down the window of the passenger seat and pointed to a towering building in the distance. She asked, “Jordan, have you been there?”

Jordan looked over and asked, “One World Trade Center? Never been there.”

Victoria smiled and asked, “Do you want to visit it at night? The observation deck is on the 100th, 101st, and 102nd floors, and it provides an aerial view of the beautiful skyline. It feels great to stand up there and look down on the world below!”

“Sure.” Jordan was also eager to experience it.

It wasn’t that he hadn’t seen much of the world.

Instead, it was because this plot of land belonged to the Steeles decades ago.

In addition, the Steeles had purchased banks and shopping malls in the past.

At that time, Jordan’s grandfather invested in many projects in New York City, and he commanded great power.

At that time, Arthur Huxley owned only a small workshop.

Jordan’s grandfather also helped many people in New York City, but how they were doing now was unknown.

At this moment, Victoria’s cell phone rang.

“It’s Stella.”

Victoria glanced at her phone and said to Jordan.

Victoria was simply the perfect girlfriend as she would inform Jordan immediately every time she got a phone call.

In fact, Jordan trusted Victoria very much, and he didn’t need her to act like this at all.

Stella was Victoria’s best friend, Stella Weston. She ran her own cosmetic product business and was a very successful career woman.

She was the one who invited Victoria to come to New York.

“Hello, Stella.”

“Sweetie, can you come to New York today?”

Stella would always refer to Victoria as “sweetie.”

“I’m already here. We just reached the downtown area.”

“What? You’ve actually already arrived! Didn’t you say you would come in the evening? Send me your location, I’ll pick you up!”

“It’s alright. I drove here.”

“Come meet me at my office then. Stay with me for a while. I’ll treat you to dinner tonight.”

After hanging up, Victoria looked at Jordan helplessly and said, “I’m afraid we can’t go to the One World Trade Center tonight to enjoy the scenery.”

Jordan smiled and asked, “Did your best friend ask you out?”

Victoria nodded and said, “Yes, I was planning to spend some time with you today and wait until tomorrow to tell her that I’ve arrived, but I didn’t know that she would call me so soon.”

Jordan could tell that the two of them had a good relationship with each other.

Thus, Jordan drove Victoria to the building where Stella’s office was located.

As soon as they entered the lobby of the office building, a fashionably dressed woman wearing a pink dress and red lipstick leaped towards Victoria.

“Victoria!”

“Stella.”

They hugged and even kissed each other.

Stella was the one who forced the kiss.

That made Jordan feel really awkward because Victoria was his girlfriend, yet she was kissed by force…

Although Stella was a woman, he felt uneasy.

“You’re so liberal even in the lobby of your office.”

Victoria was also a little helpless.

Stella exclaimed with a smile, “It’s been too long since I last saw you. You’ve finally come to New York to see me. We can finally have a chat over some drinks!”

Jordan heard Victoria mention that she and Stella met on a cruise ship abroad. At that time, both of them were in a foul mood and were drowning their sorrows in wine at the bar. They then started chatting with each other.

They ended up chatting for the rest of the night.

They were both about thirty years old, and Stella was three years older than Victoria.

They also shared similar personality traits and were both independent and domineering women who had successful careers.

Stella now owns a cosmetic product brand named after herself and hired a famous A-list actress to be her brand ambassador. Her cosmetics had been selling very well.

Victoria introduced Jordan to Stella. “Stella, let me introduce to you. He is Jordan, my boyfriend!”

Stella sized up Jordan and realized that he was dressed in an ordinary outfit comprising a simple T-shirt, a pair of linen pants, and casual shoes.

He wasn’t wearing any expensive accessories, like a watch, bracelet, ring, or anything else.

As a person who was familiar with the fashion industry, Stella had a bad impression of Jordan because of the way he dressed.

She thought that he must either be poor or lacked a tasteful fashion sense. Otherwise, how could he not have a single designer item on him?

“Hello.”

Stella waved at Jordan perfunctorily.

Stella and Victoria were extremely close friends. Victoria had been singing praises about her along the way, so he thought she would shake his hand.

Jordan was all ready to reach out his hand, only to find that Stella simply did not want to get too close to him,

“Hello.” Jordan also merely waved his hand.

“Victoria, come up with me. We’re doing a live stream now. Come join in the fun.”

Stella took Victoria’s hand and headed for the elevator.

Jordan tagged along.

When they arrived on the 13th floor where Stella’s company was, he discovered that almost all the employees were women.

There were also men, but they were quite effeminate.

Everyone seemed to be busy and kept walking around. Jordan knocked into four people when we walked ten steps forward.

“What kind of company is this?”

Such a situation would never exist in Ace Corporation.

Wherever he appeared, the employees would consciously dodge and back off.

However, the employees of this company seemed to have the guts to even knock into Stella…

Stella pulled Victoria to a room where a girl was staring at her phone and hosting a live stream.

“So she sells goods during live-streams.”

Jordan knew that it was a popular e-commerce sales method.

However, he didn’t expect the owner of a cosmetic product brand to do the same in person.

When they arrived at the room, Stella walked up to Jordan and said, “Your name is Jor… What’s your name again?”

“My name is…”

Jordan was just about to speak.

“Ah, it doesn’t matter, sit here and refrain from moving about. We’re doing a live stream now, don’t enter the frame of the camera, okay?”

Stella looked at Jordan.

Jordan nodded. “Alright.”

Stella then grabbed Victoria, and they both appeared in the live stream!
