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
Paul had arrived quickly. During dinner, he had beaten Sam to it when he tried to sit next to Miranda. Sam had tried to take the seat on the opposite side, but Fiona had cut in and taken that seat before he could. …"So were you deliberately stalling him when you said the remote was broken before t
After returning from the Garrison estate, Miranda finally learned that Paul had actually abandoned his work at the lab midway just to have dinner with her family."Dr. Jefferson, please come to the lab tomorrow to continue authorizing the access permissions." Esme's flat and emotionless voice came t
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
"What's the matter with Hans?" Calvin asked, inching his butt a little closer toward Zach after glancing at Hansel, who kept drinking solemnly by himself.Hansel had had a dark look on his face ever since he'd stepped into the room. Even the lively atmosphere in the room had cooled down because of h

"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
