Chapter 150: Stella Weston Of New York
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
It would take about 16 hours to drive to New York from Orlando.
Jordan drove a little slower this time, so they took one full day to arrive in New York.
New York is a world-class international metropolis where there are many foreigners.
Jordan had visited New York many times in the past three years.
However, he would come with Hailey each time, and apart from staying in the hotel, he would spend the rest of his trip shopping with her.
So far, he hadn’t had the chance to appreciate the charm of the city properly.
Now, he had plenty of time to experience it with Victoria and explore the attractions one by one.
They drove to the downtown area of New York City, and Jordan found that the city roads were in good condition and the drivers were better.
There was great racial diversity in this city, and the pedestrians on the streets were of many ethnicities.
Victoria rolled down the window of the passenger seat and pointed to a towering building in the distance. She asked, “Jordan, have you been there?”
Jordan looked over and asked, “One World Trade Center? Never been there.”
Victoria smiled and asked, “Do you want to visit it at night? The observation deck is on the 100th, 101st, and 102nd floors, and it provides an aerial view of the beautiful skyline. It feels great to stand up there and look down on the world below!”
“Sure.” Jordan was also eager to experience it.
It wasn’t that he hadn’t seen much of the world.
Instead, it was because this plot of land belonged to the Steeles decades ago.
In addition, the Steeles had purchased banks and shopping malls in the past.
At that time, Jordan’s grandfather invested in many projects in New York City, and he commanded great power.
At that time, Arthur Huxley owned only a small workshop.
Jordan’s grandfather also helped many people in New York City, but how they were doing now was unknown.
At this moment, Victoria’s cell phone rang.
“It’s Stella.”
Victoria glanced at her phone and said to Jordan.
Victoria was simply the perfect girlfriend as she would inform Jordan immediately every time she got a phone call.
In fact, Jordan trusted Victoria very much, and he didn’t need her to act like this at all.
Stella was Victoria’s best friend, Stella Weston. She ran her own cosmetic product business and was a very successful career woman.
She was the one who invited Victoria to come to New York.
“Hello, Stella.”
“Sweetie, can you come to New York today?”
Stella would always refer to Victoria as “sweetie.”
“I’m already here. We just reached the downtown area.”
“What? You’ve actually already arrived! Didn’t you say you would come in the evening? Send me your location, I’ll pick you up!”
“It’s alright. I drove here.”
“Come meet me at my office then. Stay with me for a while. I’ll treat you to dinner tonight.”
After hanging up, Victoria looked at Jordan helplessly and said, “I’m afraid we can’t go to the One World Trade Center tonight to enjoy the scenery.”
Jordan smiled and asked, “Did your best friend ask you out?”
Victoria nodded and said, “Yes, I was planning to spend some time with you today and wait until tomorrow to tell her that I’ve arrived, but I didn’t know that she would call me so soon.”
Jordan could tell that the two of them had a good relationship with each other.
Thus, Jordan drove Victoria to the building where Stella’s office was located.
As soon as they entered the lobby of the office building, a fashionably dressed woman wearing a pink dress and red lipstick leaped towards Victoria.
“Victoria!”
“Stella.”
