Sebastian was at a loss for words. What followed was Madison's live commentary on the food. She gushed, "Oh my gosh! This is really delicious! The sauce is a little spicy, but it's not too overwhelming. It's the fragrant kind, paired with pepper and onions. This is absolutely heavenly!"The pancake
This minor incident had little to do with Miranda and her group. They just listened to the news and moved on. Still, hearing about their college's loss always left a bitter taste. Honors and awards in academia weren't just about the college's reputation, but they were also tied to national pride. T
Joli had gone ahead to take a number earlier before coming to meet up with them all at the main gates. Coincidentally, their turn was just coming up when they arrived at the restaurant. Joli remarked, "This was Madison's idea. It's so practical!" Madison clasped her hands behind her back and grinn
A tall, elegant man with a refined and gentle smile was crossing the street. He walked toward the group and stopped next to Miranda. Madison said, "Oh, it's Dr. Jefferson. I was worried about Miranda going home alone, but this works out perfectly."She didn't think much of it at all. Sebastian and

"Miranda, you…" Paul hesitated and was unsure what she was doing.She didn't respond with words. Instead, her actions said it all.She brought a strawberry to his lips, accompanied by the soft warmth of her breath and the faint scent of her perfume.Paul froze, and his body went rigid like a statue.
It turned out that Sam and Miranda really did have a "close relationship", but it was a different kind of relationship from what Paul had imagined. So, he was elated and practically bursting with excitement.She blinked in surprise when she heard his open confession. "Why didn't you just ask me abou
When Paul gave Miranda water, he was extra careful about the angle of the glass and worried that the wrong tilt might make her choke.While looking at his serious and focused expression, she couldn't help but wonder if he was taking something so simple and turning it into a major project.After she
Every time Sebastian thought about the possibility, he felt a tightness in his chest. Since there was no actual reason, he decided to be the one to make Madison stay in Jandersville. Though he knew that reason wasn't enough, he believed that one day, it would be.When he arrived at the lab, as expec
Madison drove back to her apartment, and the darkness of night had already settled outside.On most evenings, she would have been eating her delivery from Flavorscape by now. However, she had lately developed a fondness for a new place called Noir Plate. As a regular, she had even signed up for thei
It was hard to tell how long it took, but Madison finally calmed down. The first full sentence she blurted out was, "Seb, are you crazy?"Then came, "Or did someone put a spell on you?"And finally, "How… How could you possibly like me?"The whole situation was so overwhelming that she couldn't help
In the evening, Miranda finally stepped down from the lab bench, removing her lab coat as she went. Madison exclaimed in surprise, "Miranda, are you leaving?""Yes.""This early?"It wasn't that she was overacting, but this was the first time for a workaholic like Miranda to leave work on time. Wha
