Chapter 427
“Congratulations on going public, prominent entrepreneur.”
Aubree stood by the floor-to-ceiling window, looking down at the city as night fell. The streets below bustled
with cars and people, every kind of life on display.
Bowen's words of congratulations echoed softly in her ear.
How could she even describe the feeling? It was like a beautiful dream she’d had right before dying in her
previous life.
“Well, I, the prominent entrepreneur, will gladly accept congratulations from you, the prominent CEO,” said
Aubree, letting out a soft laugh. Dream or not, she was happy right now, and that was all that mattered.
Bowen couldn’t help but laugh, too. Even though he couldn't see her, just hearing her voice made his expression
soften in a way that was almost ridiculous, his gaze impossibly tender. When are you coming back?”
“In a couple of days. I still have sinterviews and networking to do here,” Aubree replied. By the tshe got
back to Rithol City, it would probably be close to his birthday.

*Will you spend a whole day withwhen | get back?” she asked.
“Will one day be enough? Bowen asked.
“It has to be. Mr. Turner, you're the big boss. Your people are practically fighting each other to do your work for
you. I'm a hardworking person. | have to go to school and work, and | also have to take care of the employees
from tto time,” Aubree said.
“Alright,” Bowen replied.
After hanging up, a clever glint flashed in Aubree’s eyes. She'd just figured out how she wanted to celebrate
Bowen's birthday.
Since Bowen couldn't let go of that day, she'd get him to try doing something else at it.
If he could move on, that would be the best outcome. If not, that would be fine, too. At least from now on, she'd
be there with him on that day.
After staying in Sidlichen Strand for a while, Aubree deliberately timed her return to Rithol City to be close to
Bowen's birthday.
Aubree Miller: [Can
you save tomorrow
for me? It is the 25th tomorrow.]
Bowen had thought Aubree would be back by the 25th at the latest, but he hadn't expected her to show up right
on the 25th itself.
However, it was the first tAubree had ever taken the initiative to invite him out, and honestly, he just
couldn’t say no to her.
After a fierce battle with himself, Bowen finally replied with a simple [Okay.]
Aubree breathed a huge sigh of relief when she saw his message. She thought, ‘Ollie toldBowen went to the
cemetery to accompany his brother and sister-in-law on his birthdays every year. He couldn't let go of the pain
of losing his family and would probably turndown.
Aubree’d even thought it all through. If he did say no, she'd just cclean and offer to go with him to visit his
brother at the cemetery tomorrow.
Luckily, things hadn't turned out nearly as bad as she'd imagined.
The next day, when Aubree arrived at the spot she and Bowen had agreed on, she spotted him from afar. He was
standing tall and straight under a canopy of ancient, leafy trees, dressed in a sleek black shirt that showed off
his long, lean frame. With his hands casually tucked into his pockets, he looked completely at ease. His head
slightly bowed and his eyes soft and thoughtful, the very picture of quiet elegance,

Usually, his hair would be slicked back with gel at work, but it was left loose today, falling naturally over his
forehead. The breeze ruffled it just enough to make him look effortlessly cool and a little wild as he didn’t have a
care in the world.
It was weekend, and not far away, a few young girls, probably students, were blushing and pointing at him,
giggling among themselves. Every so often, one of them would squeal, “He’s so handsome! Is he that celebrity?”
Aubree had to bite back a laugh. If Bowen ever tried his luck in showbiz, just his face alone would be enough to
make him go viral, even if he was just playing the role of a pretty boy with no real acting chops.
As if sensing her presence. Bowen glanced over at her out of the corner of his eye. When he spotted her, his
brows lifted with a hint of devilish, roguish charm, making him look even more irresistibly attractive.
“My boyfriend is so punctual-here so early?” Aubree teased, her tone half-joking, half-sweet. Strictly speaking, it
was their first formal date, and Aubree’d put extra effort into her appearance since today was special.
