Chapter 983

Elise specially chose a seat by the window so that she could observe the people passing by in the shopping mall while she drank her coffee.

Not long after, a man suddenly came over to strike up a conversation.

"Excuse me, miss. I apologize for interrupting."

Hearing that, Elise calmly put down the coffee in her hand and turned around, only to find that it was Owen whom she talked about just this morning.

Judging from how cautious and chivalrous behavior, Owen obviously didn't know her real identity.

This would have been a perfectly normal scene if she was just a stranger to him.

However, she was Alexander's woman. Owen had just snatched the collaboration opportunity with BJ Biotech from Alexander. It was impossible for him to not know her relationship with Alexander.

So why is he approaching me while pretending to be clueless?

"Can I help you?" she asked confidently in return.

"Truth is, I have been observing you from over there for a minute now. Your features and aura are exactly what I'm looking for in a model. I was wondering if you'd be interested in letting me draw you," he asked humbly.

"That's a pretty old-fashioned way of picking women up." Elise beamed. "Sorry, but I'm a married woman."

"Oh, you misunderstand me. I genuinely want to draw you as one of my art pieces. Would you mind it if we exchanged contacts?" He reached out with his phone in his palm.

She lowered her head and took a glance at his phone, noting that he had already clicked into the Contacts app.

After thinking about it for a second, she eventually agreed, "Alright."
