Passing an intersection, the car was blocked again. Yelena Bodminskaya pressed down the window and looked over. It turned out that two patrol officers were checking a black car. She could only sit back and wait patiently.
For some reason, the security inspections in Rivni have suddenly become tense in the past few days.
I also paid special attention to the fact that surrounding the presidential election at the end of the year, the recent battles between a series of candidates have become increasingly fierce. Many candidates have come to Rivni to canvass votes, but the one from Kiev should be the only one who can trigger the current situation.
However, current President Kuchma obviously has no plans to tour to canvass votes for the time being.
It's quite strange anyway.
Yelena probably understood that maybe it was just because her level was too low.
Regarding the current situation, Yelena can't help but sigh.
Last year, I went to a hot spring resort in the north with a few friends. The blood amber pendant that was taken away by a rich girl still left a deep memory in Yelena's memory.
After that time, Yelena unknowingly became the one among the four who most wanted to change the status quo. Therefore, she invested everything she could, resigned early, and took the civil service recruitment examination in Rovne Oblast almost without any hesitation.
Perhaps because her hard work paid off, Yelena became the only successful one among the four friends. Not only did she successfully enter the Rivne Oblast Forest Resources Bureau, but she also joined the Ukrainian Progressive Union Party formed by the Rivne Gang.
Because becoming a civil servant is not Yelena's ultimate goal.
If possible, Yelena hopes to further engage in politics and become a leader, just like the congresswoman named Natalia Vitoranko who is one of the recent presidential candidates.
Who says a woman can't become president
Ambition will change a person, and it will definitely change that person's life.
On Yelena's side, after she successfully became a civil servant, perhaps because she became too motivated, or perhaps could not bear the gap between the two, her boyfriend Alexander Kuzminko quickly broke up with her and later gave up on Nokia. After working in a factory, I borrowed a lot of money, collected the travel expenses, and smuggled myself to Germany.
The two never contacted each other again.
The other couple, Sergey and Mary, still stayed at the Nokia factory. In the first half of the year, Sergey was successfully promoted and became a team leader in charge of more than ten people. The two were already planning to get married.
Yelena still kept in touch with Mary and occasionally had meals together, but in fact they gradually drifted apart.
Now Yelena closely follows her boss, the woman named Anastasia Lindieva. It is said that she has a very good background, but no one knows what her background is, and Lindieva herself does not know what her background is. explain.
Yelena can see a lot from various details.
For example, the clothes of his boss, such as Chanel, Gucci, Burberry and other luxury brands that are often seen, are definitely not something that an ordinary bureaucrat in the Rivni government can afford.
Even though the other party is the director of the Rivni Urban Greening Construction Office under the Forest Resources Bureau, which is theoretically a very lucrative position, not to mention that there is no soil for oil and wealth in the current Rivne Oblast government system. After joining the job, Yelena I also soon discovered that my boss was obviously not that kind of person, but was instead very honest and dedicated.
Yelena then felt that it must be the other party's husband.
However, I gradually learned that my boss was single and had only two daughters studying in the UK.
If not the husband, he should be the lover.
However, even though she kept paying attention, Yelena still failed to find out whether the boss's lover was a high-ranking government official or a big boss of the Rivne Gang.
In any case, for such a woman, Yelena's intuition told herself that it was definitely right to cling tightly to her.
The car in front suddenly started to move. It was obvious that the interrogation was completed. Yelena was about to drive when someone approached and stuffed a leaflet through the open window.
Elena stepped on the accelerator and glanced at the leaflet, which was about seven or eight pages long.
Not an ad.
Or, not a commercial, but a campaign pitch.
Since she plans to develop in politics, Yelena certainly knows the middle-aged man on the cover with his shoulders crossed and looking straight ahead in a stylish manner. He is the biggest competitor of current President Leon Kuchma in this year’s election and the leader of the Ukrainian Communist Party, Petro. · Simonenko.
As a far-left political figure, Simonenko's campaign advocates are to restore the Soviets of Workers' Representatives, abandon the free market policies promoted by Kuchma, reintroduce state regulation, interrupt the privatization process, and nationalize all private enterprises.
Every one of them is very radical.
However, because everything in Ukraine has been terrible in recent years, many people have become more and more nostalgic for the original Soviet Union, and Simonenko has gained a large number of fans.
Yelena disliked this person very much.
It's not that Yelena is satisfied with the current situation in Ukraine, but that she considers herself a smart person and knows very well that Simonenko's promises are no longer possible in Ukraine. Forcibly pushing forward will only bring about greater social harm. turmoil. What's more, the Soviet Communist Party has already messed up once. If the Ukrainian Communist Party is replaced, who knows if it will just mess up again
If Ukraine is smashed again now, I am afraid it will return to primitive society.
Throwing the flyer on the passenger seat, Yelena concentrated on driving, returned to the Forest Resources Bureau in the city center, parked the car in the parking lot, and hurried to the floor where her department was located with a stack of information in her arms.
Knocking on the door and entering Anastasia Lindieva's office, her boss was on the phone.
Yelena put down the greening plan information for the north city railway station, and before she had time to eavesdrop a few words, Lindieva had already hung up the phone, with a bit of anxiety on her expression. She seemed to hesitate for a moment, then asked her office assistant Said: "Yelena, you drive and take me to the airport to pick someone up."
Only then did Yelena remember that Lindieva had just whispered something like, "Mom, let's go."
Looking at the boss's expression, it was clear that he planned to skip work, which was obviously different from his usual style. However, when it came to children, as a mother, it was natural.
With thoughts swirling in her heart, Yelena quickly agreed and followed Lindieva out of the door, went downstairs, picked up the official car, left the Forest Resources Bureau again, and headed for the airport in the west of the city.
On the way, I exchanged some words of encouragement to my boss to learn to drive like me. Seeing that the boss was not very interested and seemed a little worried, I was wondering, shouldn't I be happy that my daughter is back
But no more words.
Arriving at the airport, I quickly found two slim and fashionably dressed girls, each carrying a bag and dragging a small suitcase. Compared with traveling across the country, it felt a little light and simple.
After taking the initiative to greet them, Elena learned the names of the two girls. Her elder sister was Elena and her younger sister was Angelica.
For some reason, when Yelena saw the two girls, she thought of the girl who casually took away the blood amber pendant that she fell in love with at first sight at the amber exhibition. While diligently helping to carry the luggage, Yelena could only secretly encourage herself again. At least, she would let her daughters live such a good life in the future.
Everyone quickly got in the car and heard that the boss who took the initiative to sit in the passenger seat and gave up the back seat to his two daughters told him about an address on the bank of BASF Lake in the south of the city. Yelena started the car and inevitably paid close attention to the mother and daughter in the car.
One can clearly feel some obvious gap between mother and daughter.
The boss obviously cares about her two daughters, but Yelena can easily sense the seemingly awkward alienation even if she only stays in this atmosphere for a short time.
However, Yelena would have no way of knowing.
Obviously because she was an outsider, the mother and daughter didn't talk much. Most of the time, Lindieva was asking about the details of their two daughters' study and life. The two girls didn't respond indifferently, one by one. He answered, but with an obvious absent-mindedness.
Seems to be expecting something else.
The car drove for more than half an hour and arrived at the bank of Basf Lake in the south of the city, a wealthy area that is becoming more and more famous in the eyes of the public in Rivni. It was very troublesome when entering. Not only Lindieva and her daughter, but also Yelena. After being repeatedly confirmed and checked through the Internet-connected computer here, and detailed registration was done, I was finally released.
Entering the neat asphalt corridor shaded by green trees in the wealthy area, Yelena sighed with emotion. She occasionally saw the two girls in the back seat through the rearview mirror. Their eyes were bright and expectant, and she was a little confused for a moment.
Just now, apart from being challenged as if he had entered a secret military base, what else happened
Arriving at a quiet single-family villa in the community, Yelena had just parked the car and was greeted by two maids in the villa. She saw that the two women were obviously a level above her in appearance, figure and clothing. She didn't look like a servant at all, and Yelena couldn't help but have mixed feelings.
I also remembered that this boss was picked up and dropped off by a special car every day.
He was obviously in a hurry to pick up his daughter today, so he didn't let us send a car and gave her a rare opportunity. When she came to her boss's house for the first time, she put aside those thoughts of inferiority and continued to help her very diligently. Unfortunately, apart from her boss, mother, daughter, and two attendants, Yelena stayed here for more than ten minutes, drank a cup of coffee, and failed to see any sign of the male host, and then was sent away.
Even if I feel lost inside, I understand that I can’t force it.
Saying goodbye to this place, Yelena drove out of the small courtyard where the villa was located. After a little hesitation, she still did not return along the original route. She turned into another corridor by mistake, intending to visit the bank of BASF Lake, which had been turned into a private lake.
I imagine I can live here in the future.
After driving along the quiet corridor shaded by greenery in the general direction for a while, we soon arrived at the lakeside and suddenly saw a bright light.
It was about three o'clock in the afternoon.
The summer sunshine here is not blazing, but just right.
Yelena looked at the sparkling lake in the sun, parked the car on the side of the road, got out of the car and walked to a pavilion by the lake, sat down on a bench with railings on the side of the pavilion by the lake, and looked sideways at the surrounding scenery. For a while, I had the idea of living here.
Even if she is allowed to live in this small pavilion, she is willing to do so.
Of course I can only think about it.
The world is still too far away from me now, but at least I can skip work completely and stay here this afternoon. My bosses are all skipping work anyway.
I was thinking wildly, leaning on the railing with my arms, and couldn't help but narrow my eyes slightly, planning to take a nap, when someone came over.
These were two tall black men wearing sunglasses and suits.
Moreover, when she heard the voice greeting her, she turned around and looked over. Yelena also discovered that the two of them had communicators on their ears. This image, even if she has never seen it in real life, is very common in various movies and TV dramas.
He subconsciously stood up quickly.
The two men in black were originally on routine inspection, but seeing her guilty look, they became more and more vigilant. As they were questioning and confirming her personal information in detail, a group of people came over from not far away.
Yelena just glanced over and was stunned.
Because of her good eyesight, Yelena noticed at a glance the man who was surrounded by several people and had a beautiful girl on his arm.
There are probably not many people in this world who don't know that face.
Simon Westeros!
If it were under other circumstances, Yelena's first reaction would definitely be that it was just a person with a similar appearance. After all, how could a high-ranking figure like Simon Westeros be bumped into by someone casually
However, contacting everything you know...
Not to mention anything else, everyone knows that the reason why this city is able to stand out from the crowd in the ruins of Ukraine is because there is a person standing behind the city, the richest man in the world, Simon. Westeros.
And the present moment.
In front of her were two bodyguards that could only be seen in movies and TV dramas. Moreover, Yelena quickly thought of the recent tightening of security in the entire city, as well as the strict interrogation she encountered when she entered this community not long ago.
Obviously, all this is because of the arrival of Simon Westeros.
Yelena even thought of her female boss.
It has to be said that Lindieva is definitely a very beautiful woman, and why such a woman can get such a coveted position in the Forest Resources Bureau, and why can she allow several directors and deputy directors who are more senior to work on weekdays? Are you all welcome
Obviously, there is a big shot standing behind the other party.
As we all know, Simon Westeros is a very playful person and is rumored to have numerous lovers.
In short, everything clicked at once!
Seeing that she was completely covered by two bodyguards in black, Simon Westeros and his entourage were almost passing by the corridor. Yelena felt that if she missed such an opportunity, she would probably never encounter it again in her life.
Just once!
So, even though her head was still buzzing, Yelena's body was the first to react, and she suddenly bypassed the two bodyguards in black. When the other party quickly reacted and grabbed her together, she shouted to the man: "Simon ·Westeros!"
