But nobody present would dare say anything.
Ashley was also curious to know who that person could be.
Her curiosity was satisfied moments later because the next second, the door of the conference room burst open. The sound of footsteps became louder and louder and those inside the room froze and seemed to have forgotten what they were doing just then.
"Wow!
Who is that guy?
How could there be a guy so handsome walking in this world, let alone towards the conference room right now?
Why haven't I seen this person in the company before?"
For a moment, the people were whispering. Everyone, male and female, fixed their gazes upon Andrew.
Their eyes were filled to the brim with utter surprise, jealousy and curiosity.
Even within the Lu Group, not everyone had seen the CEO and appreciated his nice looking face this close a distance.
Only top management up to positions like Miss Mo's had the chance to see him. And some of them only got to see him on extremely rare occasions.
Miss Mo frowned and asked everyone to be quiet. And then together with Mr. Mao, she stood up and went over to greet Andrew. "Hello, Mr. Lu."
The room suddenly turned dead silent. Everyone in the room had a sudden desire to speak and all were extremely excited. But it wasn't the time for them to say anything.
'Oh, the CEO! How surprising! It is the CEO! They have seen the CEO in person today!
He is extraordinarily handsome, same as what the rumors said about him.'
Nobody noticed that when he stepped into the room, his eyes quickly scanned and zeroed in toward the direction where Ashley was. After locating Ashley, he drew his eyes back and looked to be in a very good mood.
Ashley kept her head down as if she didn't notice anything going on in the room.
But when she noticed that so many people were staring at her man with envious eyes, she got irritated. Andrew belonged to her alone. Only she could look at him freely. She wanted to hide him from such unwanted gazes.
Why did he have to come out and wonder around? Now his admirers would double in number.
If Andrew could guess what Ashley was thinking about, he would definitely reassure her, "From the beginning to the end, all I love is only you and you alone."
Miss Mo didn't know why Andrew came to the conference room. In the past, she used to preside each meeting, regardless of who was part of it. This was why even in the presence of Andrew, she did it the same way as she was accustomed to.
"Let's begin, shall we?" announced Miss Mo.
Amaia was right. This was the first round of the contest. They were supposed to design a piece of jewelry and then show it to the audience, make a presentation about the aim of the article they designed and the meaning of their creation.
It wouldn't have been difficult originally, but nobody expected Andrew would be among the audience. With Andrew sitting there, some of the female staff got nervous, blushed and stammered during their presentation.
Their performances were horrible to witness.
Sylvia was feeling helpless too. She didn't expect to see Andrew in this meeting.
But she didn't have any reason to complain that Andrew was here.
He came to oversee the contest. She couldn't stop him.
What Miss Mo didn't know was Andrew came here just for one person.
If it was not for her, he wouldn't have come here to see the contest.
Soon it was Sylvia's turn to introduce her design. Ashley looked at her and was certain to win the contest. She narrowed her eyes. She'll be presenting after Sylvia.
Sylvia stood up gracefully and said, "Hello, everybody. My name is Sylvia Xu, 24 years old..."
