Such action and perfunctory words made John Miller's face a little unsightly, now he is the heir of the Miller family, and has been held in high esteem by those around him for so many years.
From the mouth of other classmates, he learned that Vanessa Monroe, who has never come to the class reunion, came, or a big beauty, after he heard it, he looked at Vanessa Monroe and Ava Carter's side with interest, and he did see a girl whose temperament and face value were in the upper class.
So he took the initiative to go up to say hello, not realizing that Vanessa Monroe was so not giving him face.
However, thinking that Vanessa Monroe is so beautiful, a little arrogant is normal, John Miller picked up the Champagne glass and took a sip, carelessly opened his mouth.
"Miss Monroe, after graduating from high school, I haven't seen you, where are you working these days?"
"A certain company in New York." Vanessa perfunctorily said, to be honest, after formally meeting with this person, she felt there was no need to hit her face.
Certain people lived their entire lives with the admiration and vanity of others, and she didn't think there was any need to poke holes in that dream.
She's also only got a few million dollars in savings, unless she has the kind of financial capital that Ethan Blackwood has and just turns to him and says, "It's getting cold, the Miller family should go bankrupt!
That kind of plot development would be enough of a slap in the face, wouldn't it!
"Miss Monroe, why don't you go back to Los Angeles, come to my company, and work for me as a secretary, Miss Monroe is so beautiful, the salary aspect will be higher than you in New York." John Miller laughed softly, his eyes contained contempt and frivolity.
Sure enough this kind of man was bound to open his mouth with a tone of smugness tinged with charity.
"Oh, thank you for your kind words, no plans to return to Los Angeles for the time being."Words are not enough, Vanessa perfunctorily returned a sentence and turned around to leave.
Ava Carter on the sidelines is a grumpy one, and she didn't ask her bestie Vanessa to come to the reunion to be aggravated.
"My dear Vanessa is currently working at the Blackwood Group headquarters in New York as Ethan Blackwood's secretary. John Miller, are you trying to poach an employee from the president of Blackwood Group?"
John Miller's face instantly turned ugly after hearing Blackwood Group and Ethan Blackwood.
Their family was only an upper-middle class family in Los Angeles, and there was absolutely no comparison to the Blackwood Group that occupied 70% of the economy and industry in the entire United States.
Not to mention Ethan Blackwood's young and capable, iron blooded and cold, the title of the youngest and most promising head of a powerful family has long been a deterrent to those of them, and people at his level want to get on with Ethan Blackwood, but there are no channels.
"Really?"John Miller let out an awkward laugh and then became attentive to Vanessa.
He wanted to hook up with the Blackwood Group from Vanessa Monroe here, and preferably have a direct relationship with Ethan Blackwood.
Other classmates, who had been quietly watching earlier, interjected themselves from time to time, with the same obvious purpose.
Vanessa felt bored beyond belief and wanted to pull Ava Carter away from the party, making excuses, "Sorry, I'm a little bit not feeling too well, I want to go back early to rest, I'll contact you again when I have the chance."
"Eh, we're all old classmates, it's not easy to see each other, you sit here and rest, our party hasn't even officially started yet."
"Yeah, maybe the indoor air is a bit stuffy, Miss Monroe, you sit here and rest for a while ...."
Suddenly Vanessa's phone rang, interrupting the other students' discouragement.
"A night of eyes that look like stars dotting the sky...."
Vanessa rushed to pick up the phone before she could see who the caller ID was, "Hello?"
"Where are you?"A familiar male voice rang out on the other end of the line, it is Ethan.
"At my high school reunion, what'wrong?"Vanessa wondered, hadn't she already told Ethan that she was at the reunion on Saturday.
"Specific address!"Ethan was succinct.
"XX street xxx 3rd floor."Vanessa subconsciously replied, then reacted, "Ethan, it's not possible that you're here in LA too, right?"
"Well, just happened to be here on business."Ethan lied, it was actually him who had insomnia last night, he couldn't sleep at all without Vanessa by his side.
Thinking he didn't have much to do today, he applied for a private flight on a special airplane and flew over from New York to see her.
When he made the decision, he thought he was crazy to fly six hours over to Vanessa just to meet her sooner.
"I'll be over in 20 minutes."Ethan said and hung up the phone.
Whispers started around them after hearing Vanessa's phone chat.
"Ethan?It couldn't be Ethan Blackwood, could it?"
"Really, Ethan Blackwood is coming to our reunion too?"
"It can't be, right, as the boss he would personally come to pick up his employees?"
"What if he really comes, we'll see what happens later."
Originally, they were still a little skeptical that this old classmate who used to be self-absorbed could actually get into the Blackwood Group after graduation and become Ethan Blackwood's secretary, such an important position.
It was also thought that it was Vanessa Monroe who had conspired with Ava Carter, and that her working in the Blackwood Group was just a falsehood told by vanity.
Vanessa was surprised that Ethan would come over to her, but she still didn't want to be vain with these strangers here.
"Your boss came to L.A.?"Ava Carter asked Vanessa quietly.
"Yeah, he said he was coming over on business.I guess he asked me to take care of work stuff, so I'll drop you off at home first, it's too late and it's not safe for you to go back on your own." Vanessa took Ava Carter by the hand and prepared to head for the door.
