“What did you do?” Daniel asked lazily while leaning against the bedroom door frame.Celine looked at his state and knew he was drunk. She approached him but kept a safe distance between them.“You’re drunk. Let’s talk once you’ve sobered up” she said calmly.There’s nothing wrong with what she did so she doesn’t feel guilty at all. She did all that to help him.Daniel’s lips slowly curled up into a seductive smile then he started unbuttoning his shirt.“You’re right, I’m drunk. Would you help me to sober up?” he slowly reached for her hand then caught her in his embrace.Feeling his hot breath on her ears, Celine could feel her whole body warming up against his. She closed her eyes trying to focus on more important things than to indulge in Daniel’s burning touch.“Your wedding has to push through. It’s the only way” she said then collected her courage to remove his hands on her waist and created a distance between them.“Really?” he asked lazily as he pulled her back closer to him a

He really wanted to investigate her complete turnaround but decided to wait for a few more days to observe.“No. I just thought it’s healthier for you to eat home-cooked meals and I’m practicing your favourites” she said then led him to the table.Their dinner was spent in silence with only their utensils making the sound. Daniel observed how Celine is behaving like a proper lady during meal time and it’s killing him to see her like that.“What are you doing?” finally he asked after Celine slowly put a slice of his favourite lemon sponge cake in

“No. It’s just that we didn’t expect you guys tonight” Aunt Marge immediately composed herself then walked towards the sofa in the living room.She knew it was late but she could not wait to hear their reason for dropping by at such a late hour.When the three of them settled, Aunt Marge looked at Daniel for explanation. She saw Celine fiddling with her thumbs and clearly uncomfortable.“Well” Daniel started.“Celine wanted to see what a real couple looks like” he explained casually but he felt his cheeks warming up.Celine was caught off-guard hearing his explanation. It was he who suggested to move back with the Stevensons. How could he use her as an excuse now?“Actually, Aunt Marge” she hurriedly object.She calmed herself and steady her voice before continuing. She cannot just contradict Daniel in front of his mother.“What Daniel meant was, we are trying to be a better husband and wife to our future partners” she managed to explain without looking at Daniel.“Since Daniel is get

Aunt Marge and Uncle Edward?She never wanted to make cooking a family affair.“Father asked me to help you. Don’t mind me, I will just watch” he said casually while looking at her ingredients.He saw a marinated chicken and potatoes.He suddenly felt hungry.Just as he said, he just watched how Celine efficiently whipped up mashed potato and coleslaw while grilling the chicken barbecue.In a record time, she has completed plating and their dinner were served immediately.“You cooked all these?” Aunt Marge exclaimed clearly impressed.It seems she has underestimated Celine’s capabilities.Celine gladly accepted the older lady’s praise and excitedly explained how she usually prepares ready-to-cook meals.“So even when I’m not around, Daniel can still have home-cooked meals” she explained.“This is nice”

She’s planning to have an early morning swim” Butler John patiently explained.Everyone noticed Mr. Stevenson’s furrowed eyebrows hearing the butler’s explanation.“Call her” he ordered.It’s seldom the family is complete. He wanted to have meals together since everyone is around.“If she says she wants to swim, just let her be” Daniel objected against his father.“Good morning” Celine’s voice greeted everyone before she sat beside Daniel.Mr. Stevenson was observing Celine as soon as she arrived. She didn’t look like she came from a swim. Is she avoiding the breakfast?“How’s your swim?” Mr. Stevenson asked while having a bite on his egg muffin.Celine looked at the older man before smiling.

From the arc, we need to drive 500 metres more and his men will be waiting for us” she instructed and Lucas started driving slowly.When they reached the designated spot, they were greeted by two men: one old and one teenager. They must be father and son.“Welcome, Ms. Yates” the older man greeted them. Celine replied then introduced her company.“You can leave the car here; we’ll take the horses to the barn” the old man suggested.“What?” Aunt Marge asked.“Madam, this whole property beyond the fence is carbon-neutral territory, we cannot allow the car to come inside or else, we will lose our current standing and benefits” the old man explained carefully.Seeing there’s no point in arguing, they all followed the old man and his son to an old looking…Carriage???She felt like she went bac

Let’s just enjoy our little vacation” Aunt Marge’s gentle voice calmed her down.Old Man Zach observed their interaction and felt curious.They must have a good relationship as in-laws.***Inside the car, just outside the farmgate, Lucas felt his ears were already bleeding listening to Daniel’s threatening voice.‘If anything happens to either of them, you will pay with your own life’ the young master was fuming.He only calmed down when Mr. Stevenson continued their conversation.He reported everything he learned and how the ladies were enjoying their stay which the old master appreciated.After a few more reminders from Mr. Stevenson, they ended their call and he went back to the main house.“I should be there.

Celine was caught off-guard when her father was mentioned.She knew her father is always a sore topic amongst the Stevensons.She looked at the older lady to see any resentment in her eyes but she only saw curiosity. She tried to imagine the mighty Roland Yates but she could not imagine him living in a farm.She shook her head then smiled at the older lady.“For as long as I can remember, my father’s only focus is work. He always went overseas just to meet potential business partners. Doesn’t matter how short or how long his trips were as long as there is an opportunity, he would definitely go. I remember asking him if his trips were tiring and he would just smile.”“I think he was contented after his overseas trips that’s why I always know that his work gives meaning to his life and was always his priority” she recalled her father’s face longingly.Aunt Marge nodded as if seeing Roland Yates in a new light.“Your father didn’t bring you along?”“I think when I was a child, he would b
