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.
Everyone in Miranda Sutton and Hansel Johnson's friend circle knew that she was head-over-heels in love with him.She loved him so much that her entire life revolved around him. There was no such thing as personal space for her, and she would've preferred it if she could be with him 24 hours a day,
At the dining table, Hansel didn't seem pleased with what had been served for breakfast. "Where's my pumpkin soup?""You mean cream of vegetable soup?""Cream of vegetable soup?""Yes. I know that Ms. Sutton makes that all the time. It's the one made with pumpkin, potatoes, onions, and celery, right
"Is Miranda having a hard time finding a parking spot? I can go and help—"Calvin suddenly saw Hansel's thunderously black face, and the realization finally dawned on him. "Oh! Hans, has Miranda… not returned yet?"It was long past three hours.Hansel spread his arms and shrugged. "Returned? You tho
Hansel had had quite a lot to drink the night before. Somewhere in the middle of the night, Calvin had suddenly made a huge fuss about continuing their drinking session at a second bar.By the time Hansel's driver, Dan Rover, brought him back to the mansion, the sun was already starting to rise.Han

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
