Winning My Ex-Crush

Fenella’s POV

“Hey, why so fierce?” He chuckled.

“Oscar praised you and promised to make you the main model for his new collection series. Perfumes, dance dresses, accessories, and even lingerie. Isn’t that great?” Alan asked as if trying to persuade me.

“I don’t know; I feel like I can’t focus on my work. I’m not enthusiastic about all this suddenly,” I said, still gloomy, wiping my wet cheeks.

I didn’t even care about my makeup, which had begun to smear unevenly. Although I used waterproof makeup, my makeup was still not perfect and was starting to be erased by my own hands.

“Hm, what if I cheer you up?” Alan asked.

“Come on, follow me.” Alan reached for my wrist.

“Where are we going?” I asked weakly, looking at Alan, who still seemed enthusiastic about taking me away from this VIP table.

I didn’t know what Alan wanted. But wherever he took me, I wouldn’t be able to relax without news from Laird.

“Just come along. Come on!” Alan still forced me to follow him.

I looked at Jessy. The brown-haired man just nodded. He seemed to urge me to follow Alan. Finally, I stood up and followed Alan.

We went out to the parking building behind the club. Many valet attendants were passing by the building. It was clear that this was where the valet attendants parked the guest cars. Alan kept walking, leading me farther into the parking building.

Then he stopped in front of a car among the rows of other cars. A shiny red hatchback car shown by Alan looked as if it had just come out of the car dealership. I frowned as Alan showed me the car.

“Do you like it?” Alan asked me.

“This car?” I asked, still confused.

“Yes. Tell me, do you like it?” Alan asked again.

I shrugged. “Well, what’s not to like about this new car? It’s shiny, new, seductive red, and it’s Japanese,” I said casually.

“Well, if you’re happy with it, it’s because this car is yours. It’s a bonus for signing the main model contract with me,” Alan said.

“But I haven’t signed a new contract yet,” I said to Alan, still confused.

“After our performance tonight and the praise we received from Oscar and his famous friends who came to see us, I think the contract is just a formality now.” Alan smiled.

“So, you mean, I’ll be contracted as the main model? Then I get this car as a bonus.” I asked, still in disbelief. Alan nodded with a broad smile on his face.

I took a deep breath and covered my mouth with both hands. I still couldn’t believe all this, and I screamed with joy. Unconsciously, I squealed, shrieked happily, and then hugged Alan. Then I looked back at the car from every side and angle.

“Is this really mine?” I asked again. Alan nodded again.

“Do you want to try driving it now?” Alan asked me.

“What? Drive it?” I squealed, still amazed.

I screamed in joy. This had never crossed my mind. Given a new car and trying it out right away. Until now, I had imagined buying a used car with a five-year installment plan for my first car after getting my driver’s license.

“Wait a minute.” Then suddenly I realized.

“I can’t drive it,” I told Alan, my shoulders slumping.

“Why?” Alan asked, puzzled.

“I’m not very skilled at driving. Plus, I haven’t even gotten my driver’s license.” My hands immediately went limp.

“Oh, but that’s okay. Jessy can drive it, so he’ll definitely be happy to drop me off and pick me up. I’m sure he’ll also be willing to help me practice driving later,” I said with a small laugh to Alan.

“Why later? You can practice driving now,” Alan said, shrugging.

“Oh, I can’t. Like I said, I’m not very confident in my driving skills,” I said firmly.

Alan snorted and pursed his lips. He shifted closer to me and whispered.

“You know, driving is all about experience. How can you get good at it if you never have the experience of driving on real roads?” Alan asked.

“Yeah, but what if we get caught by the police for not having a driver’s license?” I countered, concerned about safety.

“That’s only if you make a mistake and get fined. As long as you don’t cause trouble, I’m sure the police won’t even know you don’t have a license.” He whispered.

“Besides, I do have a driver’s license. This car is also still under Gene’s office name, so it’s only natural for me to be responsible if something happens. Don’t worry,” Alan reassured me.

I was still hesitant, while Alan seemed confident. Then he took out the car key remote. He pressed the remote and opened the driver’s door. Then he got in for a moment and took something out from inside the car.

“Now, this is for celebration,” Alan said, showing a bottle of champagne and two clear glasses.

“Alan? Didn’t you say I should drive?” I asked with a half-smile.

“Just a sip won’t make you exceed the tolerance limit for a fine. Trust me. I’m more experienced,” Alan said as he handed me two clear glasses to hold in my hands.

Slowly, Alan popped the champagne bottle. Foam immediately gushed out of the bottle. Alan deliberately didn’t shake the bottle beforehand, so the foam wouldn’t spray as usual. Just a small celebration in this cramped space.

“Come on,” Alan urged me to extend our glasses.

He continued to persuade me with his sparkling brown eyes. His lips kept whispering, and his persuasion finally melted my heart. Now I knew why people, including Jessy, admired Alan so much.

I shook my head with a small chuckle. Then I raised the two glasses in the air. Alan immediately poured the golden champagne liquid into the two glasses. He put his bottle back on top of the car roof. Then he took out his champagne glass.

“For your success and Gene’s success,” Alan said with a broad smile.

“Cheers!” I said at the same time.

We sipped the delicious champagne together. The smooth, sweet, and refreshing taste immediately filled my throat.

“This is delicious,” I commented briefly.

“Yes, it’s sweet,” Alan said with a nod and a thin smile.

He stared at me for a long time, still smiling broadly. Maybe I was a little tipsy, but I felt like I saw Alan’s face shining brighter than usual. His charisma always managed to captivate everyone, and this time I could say I was quite enchanted by him.

“Thank you, Alan. You really made your talent happy tonight,” I said softly.NôvelDrama.Org: owner of this content.

I gazed at him with a long stare. He just smiled sheepishly.

“So, are you ready?” He asked with enthusiasm.
