With that, she handed the paper and pen to Sam. "I'll be going first."Sam could only reply with a smile, "Alright, see you later.""Great. Let's go, Dr. Jefferson. The café is right across the street from where we live." It was the same place she had gone with Sam the last time they had to discuss
"Lizzy?" Bryan called out once more."What's the matter?""You were just talking to a real estate agent, right? Are you looking for a place to rent?"Elizabeth panicked. She snapped angrily to avoid more questions from Bryan, "Why do you ask so many questions? What does it have to do with you?"Brya
As Winter recalled that night she got drunk, she blushed and rubbed her nose. "It's all my mom's fault. She insisted I go to the young adult mixer, but it turned out to be a matchmaking event." She felt those young men and women at the event seemed like products lined up for selection. Natalie had
Paul, Miranda, and Winter stepped out of the restaurant."Paul, you're so popular. You were surrounded by a bunch of seniors, just like fans do around their favorite idol," Winter remarked."Idol?""Oh, it means celebrity," she replied.Paul chuckled. "It's just for practical reasons. I'm not a cele
After dropping Miranda and Paul off, Winter drove to the bar. The ride was smooth. But just as she was about to park at the bar entrance, a Maserati zipped in from the side and slammed into her rear.Winter was furious. She slammed her door and marched to the front of the other vehicle. "What the he
After Mira finished speaking, she turned and walked away in her high heels.Zach chuckled and dismissed her words with a scoff. He found the idea of unrequited love laughable.After she left, a young woman in a plaid mini-skirt stepped out of the bar. Her long, fair legs were exposed, and her curly
Zach had a more comprehensive network than Alexander.Winter studied Zach, who seemed so confident, and her gaze turned skeptical. "Are you sure you want to talk about collaboration with me?"Zack replied, "Of course. But why are you looking at me like that? Do you think I can't handle it?"She size
"Where's the security? Someone stop them now," someone from the front desk said.In the chaos, Lucy dropped the pretense and shouted at the top of her lungs. "Where's Evelyn Stewart? I'm looking for her. Get her out here now!"She and her son, Franklin York, had arrived in Elgerson two days ago. The
Aren couldn't understand it. "Why are you in such a rush? Sam has been single for quite some time, and you've never reacted this strongly before."Of all things, she wanted to set up a blind date."You… you're not sleepwalking, right?" Aren asked cautiously. Fiona turned to glare at him immediately
"Huh? Why didn't I hear Sam start his car? Has he left? Let me take a look…" Aren muttered as he walked to the floor-to-ceiling window and peered out. "I knew it! His car is still there. He didn't leave at all. Could his car be stuck in the snow? That doesn't make sense… It hasn't been snowing long
The night was dark and silent as the heavy snow fell. Inside the estate, Fiona glanced out the window. "Oh, it looks like it's snowing outside," she said. Sam remained indifferent as it snowed every year in Elgerson. To him.. Or rather, snow was nothing special to anyone who grew up in Elgerson.
Aren nodded. "That works too. Sam, you don't need to send them off then. Head home and rest early."Sam remained silent. Before long, a maid came in and reported, "Both boxes have been loaded into Dr. Jefferson's car."Paul bid farewell to the elderly couple. "Mr. and Mrs. Garrison Senior, we'll he
Miranda was completely unaware of what was happening at the chessboard. At that moment, she was sitting on the couch and watching a dating reality show with Fiona. Yes, a dating show. In Fiona's own words, she said, "I just love watching young people fall in love. If I happen to find a couple I li
Since Paul had arrived, Fiona invited everyone to head to the dining room. Sam caught up to him and said dryly, "Dr. Jefferson, you seem quite free today."Paul replied, "It's the end of the year, so both the college and the labs are starting their holiday break. Perhaps the only ones still busy at
Sam brought his laptop to the living room and sat cross-legged in front of the coffee table. The thick wool carpet and the warmth of the heater kept the winter chill at bay. He began working in an orderly manner. From the business department to branding, then over to finance and human resources… E
"Sam is getting better at taking care of others," Fiona teased, chuckling. "When are you going to bring home a granddaughter-in-law for us?"Sam nearly choked on his food and coughed lightly. "Grandma, where did that come from?"Fiona immediately straightened up. "Do you think I'm joking? I'm seriou
After Miranda finished with her drink, Paul took the glass and placed it aside. Exhausted, she lay back down on the bed. Soon, Paul lifted the covers and slid beside her. "By the way," Miranda said, "Grandma asked me to visit the estate tomorrow. Do you have time to come with me?""Tomorrow?" Paul
