Chapter 472: Engagement News 4 Chapter 472: Engagement News 4 Victoria Garcia only turned on her phone when she arrived at the office.
Missed calls and messages were flashing rapidly.
“Good morning, General Garcia!”
“Congratulations, General Garcia!”
“General Garcia, you’re truly enviable!”
“General Garcia, you’re amazing!”
All kinds of words swarmed in her ears, she simply responded with a smile and then stepped into the office.
As soon as she sat down, a call came through. It was from Alexander Mitchell.
It had been a long time since they last contacted each other since he left Green City. Victoria picked up the call, “Hello!”
“Victoria…”
“Hm, how have you been?” She asked. It had been a long time since she had contacted an old friend, and it seemed that such a question was quite appropriate.
Alexander’s voice was somewhat hoarse, even with a hint of a cough, “I saw the news last night, congratulations.”
“Thank you!”
As soon as Victoria finished speaking, another cough from Alexander came through the phone. She couldn’t help but ask worriedly, “Are you sick? Have you seen a doctor?”
“It’s all right, it’s just a cold, I’ll be fine in a couple of days.” Alexander trivialized his condition. A cold will always get better in a few days, but a wounded heart is not that easy to heal.
Last night, when he saw the engagement news, he collapsed. He thought he could bear it all, but found himself stricken, and stood stunned in the snowstorm for three hours.
“You shouldn’t neglect a cold in this kind of weather. Don’t try to tough it out when you should go to the hospital.” Victoria always retained a touch of gratitude and fleeting emotions in her heart for Alexander.
“I want to see you, is that possible?” Alexander’s voice was still hoarse.
While Victoria found it hard to refuse such a request, she responded, “Sure, that’s fine.”
“There’s a restaurant near your office called Moon Ocean Tower, do you know it?”
“Yes, I know where it is.” Victoria responded.
“I’ll be waiting for you there at twelve.” Alexander said.
“Okay, I’ll see you at noon.”
After hanging up Alexander’s call, Victoria felt an indescribable sense of relief.
This sense of relaxation might be because she felt guilty when facing Alexander. He had never owed her anything nor did he wrong her in any way.
Perhaps if there was anyone to blame, it would be the providential path that life had laid out for them.
Somewhere along the way, they each had individually missed the other.
It was only after meeting Arnold Johnson that Victoria understood what love and being loved were really about.
Gathering her thoughts, Victoria got back to her work.
What she didn’t expect was that the shareholders’ attitude towards her became incredibly supportive after her engagement news came out.
When the stock market opened, Brown’s stocks hit the daily limit due to the news, and at the official trading hour, it hit the ceiling again.
Investors who couldn’t buy shares expressed their heartbreak on the Forum, while the lucky ones who had managed to purchase shares generously stated that they expect at least five daily limits in this round. Considering the president of Brown is marrying into the Johnson Family, a ten-day rally might not be impossible, get ready to take off!
In the midst of all the hubbub, lunchtime arrived in a flash. Victoria grabbed her handbag and left the office.
After a short five-minute walk, she arrived at the Moon Ocean Tower. She went to the private room that Alexander had reserved. When she arrived, Alexander was already there.
