He said each word very slowly, and Cecelia almost died from anxiety, but he finally said, “Not busy!” Cecelia’s tightly-knitted eyebrows loosened instantly, “Then, shall we get the groceries together after work today?” “Yes.” “This friend of mine has a good appetite. We should buy more.” The two of them acted like a real couple, talking and laughing as they stepped out. The driver, who was waiting outside, saw this scene and was so excited that he was almost tempted to use his phone to
When shopping for groceries, she made it a point to get his opinion. Before buying something, she would ask him in advance if they should get it. She bought so many things after getting his agreement. Initially, she assumed he wanted her to buy so much so that he could show-off his cooking skills tonight, but now he was telling her to order takeout? He knew she was going to disagree. After all, Grace was an important person to her. Thinking of this, Mr. William suddenly wanted to find ou
Obviously, she heard knocking on the door just now, but why was there no one when she opened it? Could she have heard wrong? “Pretty boy,” Cecelia called William. William came out of the kitchen, “What?” “Did you hear a knock on the door just now?” “Yes.” So, she did not hear wrong, but why was there no one? “Both of us heard a knock on the door without a doubt, but there was no sign of anyone out there. Is there something wrong with both our ears?” Cecelia glanced around the ent
“Please don’t—“ Grace exclaimed, but at Cecelia’s puzzled look, she said, “I mean, this is our first meeting, we’re not so familiar after all. He doesn’t have to accommodate me. Once we get to know each other better, it’s going to be fine!” Cecelia felt that Grace had her point, “You’re right. Who knows, once you’re familiar, your relationship could be better than it is with me!” The three of them took their seats and Cecelia slid the plate of fruits toward her, “Gracie, what do you want to
“Boss?” Cecelia was certain she did not hear it wrongly this time. Grace called William ‘Boss’. She turned suspicious eyes between both of them, “You know each other?” Cecelia recalled Grace’s unusual behavior today. Usually, Grace was as brave as a lion. But today, she seemed a little apprehensive about William. Even if they met for the first time, according to Grace’s past personality, it should not turn out this way. Besides, when she first arrived, she had blurted the word ‘Boss’
“Not really, it’s just that—“ Cecelia sighed. “Do you still remember that girl who pestered him at the Imperial Extravagance last time?” “Of course, you mentioned she was his ex-lover. That’s right, I’ve almost forgotten about it. How did the two of you solve it last time?” Because of her curiosity, she almost hurt Cecelia. “We didn’t exactly solve anything. He told me that was not his lover, but his sister.” “He told you already?” Grace realized that the question came out wrong, so she
She was, in fact, quite happy that William brought her to meet Natalie. Since she had met his sister, did that mean there was a place for her in his heart? She also wondered if he had any other family members. Probably not, otherwise, he would have mentioned it before. Natalie did not expect Cecelia to say that. It seemed that her little sister-in-law was quite classy. “I’m the one who should apologize. I was just playing around with you the last two times. I’m Natalie Sandler, Willi
William Sandler was in a good mood recently. Although his stoic face was still plastered on, those who were familiar with him could tell that. Today was the day for the buddies’ gathering. William Sandler, Mycroft Jones, Zachary Quaid, Dylan Hughes! The four of them were referred to as the Four Young Masters of City A. William had a cold personality, Mycroft was a playboy, Zachary was slick and diplomatic, while Dylan was wickedly cunning. The four of them had totally different persona
