Allison, when your find out your bank cards are frozen, you’ll cry and beg me!
Allison, who was in class, felt her phone vibrate in her pocket.
She checked the messages. It was from three different banks, all notifying her that her cards had been frozen.
Jasper would never spare her a cent when it came to money. Seemed like he genuinely cared for Chloe, so he was deeply angered.
But since her rebirth, Allison never used the Sterling family’s money. She would not use anyway.
The scholarships at New York University were generous enough.
She wouldn’t worry about money even if the scholarship ended.
After class, Allison’s phone continued to vibrate.
Stunned by the caller ID, she answered the call.
“Ryan?”
“Allie, are you free? Blossom Group’s brand exchange is in New York. How about I pick you up in Los Angeles?” Ryan Collins‘ voice carried a hint of laughter. “Not gonna turn me down again, are you?”
“…I’ll go.”

again.
No messages from Allison.
She must have received messages as the cards were frozen.
Why didn’t she do any
“Jasper, don’t worry. Allie must have some change but will come
to you soon,” Chloe said confidently, though puzzled.
What was Allison up to? She was likely pretending to be miserable to gain Jasper’s sympathy.
Whatever her plan, I’ll ensure she doesn’t succeed!
The phone rang, and Chloe smiled excitedly when she saw the incoming message. “Jasper, my roommate says Blossom Group is hosting a brand exchange in New York. It’s my favorite cosmetics company. If I can meet some of their higher–ups, getting a job there will be a piece of cake. Can I go, Jasper?”
“You can’t walk now.” Jasper frowned and disagreed.
“Don’t worry. It’s next week, and my ankle will be fine by then.
“Alright.”
The hotel’s entrance featured a massive advertising screen displaying dazzling, luxurious promotional ads.

Allison stood at the door, gazing at the ad screen, when a surprised voice called from behind.
“Allie?”

Allison turned, stunned to see Jasper and Chloe in their finest
attire.
How come they are here?
Then it clicked. Chloe had told her she wanted to join Blossom Group after graduation.
Shee must have wanted to meet Blossom Group’s executives, so she asked Jasper to bring her here.
“Allie, it really is you.” Chloe took Jasper’s arm and said, “Jasper, I told you. Allie would come back to you.”
“You don’t have any pocket money left, huh? Let’s see how long you can last.” Jasper said sternly.
“Don’t get it wrong. I’m not here to see you.” Allison turned and said to the door staff, “Hi, I should be on the list. The name’s Allison.”
However, the staff checked the tablet and said, “I’m sorry. Your name isn’t here.”
“No?” Allison frowned, wondering if Ryan had forgotten it.

Jasper glanced at Allison’s expensive dress and frowned.
“Who bought it?”
“Allie.” Someone came out of the banquet hall.
Allison turned and then smiled at Ryan.

“Your name’s not on the list because I want a chance to welcome
you in person.” Ryan gazed at Allison with gentle respect.
Jasper scrutinized him coldly.
He knew Allison’s friends and her frequent contacts since
childhood.
But this guy was totally a stranger.
“Allie couldn’t afford such an expensive dress, so a man gave it to her,” Chloe said, making sure Jasper heard it.
Ryan glanced at Chloe’s outfit and asked, “Did you buy those clothes yourself?”
“I…” Chloe choked, her face flushing with embarrassment.
With her family, she couldn’t even afford a piece of the dress…
“And Allie doesn’t have to gain what she wants through men,” added Ryan.

Allison wondered why Blossom Group would invite Jasper, given their different circles.
She would have ridiculed them if not for fearing Blossom Group might offend the Sterling family and cause her trouble.
“Oh, I know! Allic, he’s just a tool to make Jasper jealous, right?” Chloe thought of this possibility.
Jasper approached Allison indifferently. “He’s your boyfriend? I agree.” Then he walked past her and went inside.
Allison’s expression remained unchanged, but her body shook.
With Jasper absent, Chloe dropped the act. “Did you hear Jasper? He doesn’t care about your men as long as you leave him alone. He even attended Blossom Group’s banquet with me. How dare you follow him here? I heard Ryan, the president of Blossom Group, was there. Once I know him, I’ll join Blossom Group, securing both career and love. Allison, you can’t compete
with me!”
“Are you sure the president will like you?” asked Ryan.
“Who are you to question my ability?” Chloe sneered. “Three years ago, Blossom Group discovered new elements from herbal plants with significant therapeutic and beauty effects, becoming the top cosmetics brand. I will be one of Blossom Group’s ‘new elements‘ and lead it to unparalleled heights. Only the aimless would associate with you two. You’re nothing compared with

She flaunted in front of the president, which shocked Ryan. “Her joining Blossom Group will only reflect my failure. But is that man Jasper from Sterling Group?”
“It’s him. He will come to you for Chloe.”
“Don’t worry, I got this. But he’s got a terrible eye for women. Knowing you extracted the new element for Blossom Group’s research would make him regret it.”
Who could have imagined that Allison was just a freshman in high school at that time?
Allison knew Ryan already understood their complex relationship from previous conversations.
Between her and Chloe, Jasper chose the latter.
