Me Before You

Stella Winslet walked over, brought a cup of coffee, put it in front of Anna, and said happily, "The bill is on me!"
Anna said with a smile, "Thank you, young lady!"
Stella Winslet laughed and looked at the shop. There were not many customers. She sat down and said, "by the way, Anna, why
you came here in such a hurry?"
Anna put down the coffee and told Stella Winslet everything that Emelia Cruise said to her.
As soon as Anna said this, Stella Winslet jumped up more excitedly and said in a loud voice, "what? She’s even threatening
you?"
Anna noticed the gaze of customers on them, forced Stella Winslet to sit down and helped her calm down. Then she said in a
low voice, "don’t be angry, Stella. I am not so angry. You don’t have to take stress! In fact, Aiden is the real culprit in this matter!"
Stella Winslet heard Anna mentioning Aiden and her eyes became gloomier.
Anna saw this, patted her on the shoulder and said in a deep voice, "Stella, don’t worry, I’ll teach Aiden Stark, that stinky boy, a
lesson! How can he not see such an amazing girl like our Stella, and let that stupid internet celebrity pester him? If and only if he
is blind, he will do so."
Stella Winslet was somewhat embarrassed by Anna’s sudden praise, "Anna, don’t praise me so much, I’m not as good as you
said!"
Anna took her hand and seriously said, "who said that? Stella Winslet, you are the most low-key rich parents’ child I have ever
seen in my life. You know, when I married Sir, I suffered extreme criticism from these rich children. You are the only one who did
not treat me like that. You are so talented that you manage your expenses on your own. To be honest, if I had living conditions
like you, I couldn’t do all this!"
Stella Winslet’s face was even redder by her praise.
After seeing Anna off, Stella Winslet thought of Aiden Stark, and her face turned even more red. However, as soon as she
thought about Aiden’s ambiguous relationship with Emelia Cruise, she was sad. She shook her head and got busy with her work.
Anna left Stella Winslet’s place. She wanted to call Aiden Stark, but she suddenly received a call from Ryan Asher, "Anna, do
you have time now? President Robert Peter has introduced a big investor and he wanted to talk about cooperation!"

Anna heard it and immediately agreed, "I will come to the company now!"
She hung up the phone and looked at the time. It was close to Daniel Taylor’s off work time, so she called him first and the phone
was answered quickly.
"Sir, did you miss me today?" Anna’s sweet and teasing voice, across the phone reached his ear.
Daniel Taylor felt his body tightened. He pretended to be vicious and said, "Anna, your skin itches again, isn’t it?"
Anna chuckled and then said, "by the way, I am calling to tell you that I will be late tonight. Just now Ryan Asher called me, he
said that President Peter has introduced a big client to us, so I thought I should inform you in advance. Remember to eat on
time!"
Daniel Taylor’s mood that was just excited, in a moment fell down to the bottom of the valley. He said in a sullen way, "Um hum!"
Anna said with a smile, "Sir, don’t be like this? Didn’t I support you when you work? When I will come back in the evening, I will
reward you."
Daniel Taylor’s gloomy eyes brightened, "is this true?"
Anna didn’t respond to him and said, "of course! I am in the light rail. I think there’s no signal here! I will hang up now."
Finish saying this, Anna hung up the phone.
Daniel Taylor hung up the phone and saw Jack Smith peeking at himself. He unconsciously touched his face and asked, "What
are you staring at? Is there anything on my face?"
Jack Smith shook his head, then looked at Daniel Taylor and said in a deep voice, "Mr. Taylor, I just think how can people’s
expression be so changeable?"
Daniel Taylor glared at him angrily, and then said in a deep voice, "go and call the leaders of all departments for an emergency
meeting! I think you are very free, so hand in the minutes of yesterday’s meeting."
Jack Smith suddenly felt speechless and looked at him, "Well... but isn’t it supposed to be submitted by tomorrow evening?"
Daniel Taylor said coldly, "aren’t you very idle today?"
"..." Jack Smith grinned bitterly and left.

Out of the office, Jack Smith gently slapped himself and said to himself, "next time, don’t be so talkative! Mr. Taylor’s tenderness
is only for Anna. As for this assistant, there is no soft corner. I’d better write down the record."
Daniel Taylor stood up and looked out of the window. For the first time, he thought the scenery was good.
In the past, he never seriously looked out of the window, and did not find the beautiful scenery here. Now he can see and he
learned to cherish things because of Anna.
Thinking of that little greedy cat, Daniel Taylor’s face showed a trace of tenderness.
"I didn’t know what time she’ll be back tonight? Forget it! Let’s ask Jack Smith to buy a cake and treat her well. I am sure, she will
like it!"
Over there, Anna in Ryan Asher’s car soon arrived at the biggest five-star hotel in Jingzhou.
Along the way, Ryan Asher told her the general information of the clients she was going to meet today.
Anna looked at the document in her hand. She was excited. She didn’t expect that today she could discuss cooperation with the
such a big business group.
This company was among the top companies in the industry, and its scale has expanded to all parts of the country. What’s more,
the CEO of the company was only 20 years old, i.e., as old as her!
At such an age, someone has already stood at the top of the pyramid, thinking of this, Anna secretly cheered for herself, "Anna,
what others can do, you can also do!"
Ryan Asher looked at her nervous expression, laughed and comforted her in a soft voice, "don’t be so nervous. President Peter
has already arranged everything, so we just have to make no big mistakes."
Thinking of President Peter’s favor, Anna’s face was full of gratitude, "thanks to Mr. Peter, otherwise our small company may not
even enter their company’s door!"
Ryan Asher nodded with a smile, "well, it is also true. It is said that the boss of The Michael group rarely arranged time to come
to Jingzhou. It’s just because of Mr. Peter’s contacts that we got an appointment. Otherwise, when we know the news, he’ll be
gone long ago!"
Anna smiled, "Then invite President Peter to have a meal some other day."

Ryan Asher didn’t speak and stopped the car. They got off and walked to the hotel lobby.
Although the appointment has been made, Anna still seriously reported at the front desk, "Hello, we are here to meet the CEO of
The Michael group. My name is Anna Stark!"
The front desk receptionist quickly dialed the phone number of President Michael’s assistant. After a while, she pointed to the
elevator with a smile and said, "President Michael asked you to come up!"
Anna and Ryan Asher walk towards the elevator.
The elevator door opened. Suddenly a man wearing a baseball cap bumped into Anna.
Ryan Asher hurried over and held her in time.
Anna didn’t care about herself. She quickly picked up the documents on the ground. The scattered pages were filled with
information about The Michael group and its president.
The man, who just bumped into Anna, also squatted down and helped her pick up her documents.
Anna picked up the scattered papers and saw that man was also holding a piece of paper, looking at it. She walked over
impolitely and took it back directly from the man’s hand.
The man was stunned and looked at Anna, "What is this? I help you pick up your things, but you’re so rude?"
Ryan Asher just wanted to talk but Anna has already retorted, "you still have the courage to say this? It’s you who bumped into
me first. Instead of saying sorry, you are calling me rude?"
