Chapter 1784 Why Did You Call Me That?

Author: Tiny Mountains
Hugo glanced at Dexter and said lazily, "Alright. Where will you stay in Blica? With Mom and Dad?"

"I don't think so. I want to buy a new house." With that, Dexter closed his eyes.

"What's wrong with her? Why don't you like her?" After a long time, Hugo stared into the distance, looking thoughtful.

"She's good in every way—beautiful, bright, and lively. She's outstanding among women, but she's not my type," Dexter said. He couldn't help but think of that rainy day in Blica, the young lady in a white, embroidered blouse…

He couldn't help but smile.

"Do you have a woman you like?" Hugo asked when he saw Dexter's expression.

"There's nothing between us."

"How would you know if you don't try? Which family is she from?"

"I'll tell you when there's some progress," Dexter said.

The next day, after Dexter booked a ticket to Emmeria, he wanted to send a message to Isobel. After all, they were friends. However, after thinking about it, he decided against it. It was unnecessary. What if

    Celeste stuck out her tongue and thought to herself, 'Didn't Isobel already confess to you? What's wrong with calling you that?'"Come in. I'm doing the laundry." She let Dexter in."Have you eaten?" he asked."Not yet." Celeste went to close the bathroom door. The washing machine was making too much noise.When she returned to the living room, Dexter had already entered the kitchen. He cut the vegetables and said, "I've washed these apples for you. Come and eat."Celeste chuckled. "Thanks, Isobel…"Dexter paused. Celeste quickly switched tacks and said, "Thanks, Isobel's…business partner. Yeah. You guys are business partners."She leaned against the door and ate the apple with one hand in her pocket.Only then did Dexter continue cutting the vegetables."Why are you here alone this time? Did Isobel ask you to come again?" Celeste asked him in confusion."No, I was just afraid you wouldn't eat well alone," Dexter said.Celeste slowed down her chewing, feeling a little strang

    Celeste walked to Dexter's side and started venting her anger, but to him, it still sounded pleasant. She was only throwing a tantrum like young ladies did; it wasn't the same as the nonsense shrew-like women spouted.Dexter kept cooking and did not speak. He plated the food and turned to bring it to the table.Celeste swept it to the ground with a whoosh, making it shatter."I didn't expect you to have such a bad temper." Dexter smiled and was about to pinch Celeste's face, but she slapped his hand away.He wasn't bothered by the food on the floor and continued to cook other dishes.Celeste swept the rest of the ingredients on the counter to the floor. "Stop cooking! What the hell are you playing at? Are you deaf or mute?She was so angry.Unexpectedly, in the next second, Dexter hooked an arm around her neck and kissed her.Celeste, who was only 18, had never experienced this. She only found the feeling of being intimate with a man strange…Dexter, on the other hand, closed

    Celeste walked out of the bedroom.The apartment looked brand new. Actually, everything was still the same, but they were very clean and tidy. It looked like the floor had been mopped; the marble floor was gleaming.On the dining table, there were washed apples and several dishes. The dishes had been covered to prevent them from getting cold.She walked into the kitchen, which was not as messy as before. The food she'd flung to the floor had been cleaned, and the shattered plate cleared. Dexter had even taken the trash out with him…The clothes in the bathroom had also been washed and hung neatly on the balcony. Even her underwear was fluttering in the wind…The other dirty clothes had been divided into two piles based on the light and dark colors, so even if they were placed in the washroom, they did not feel messy.His methodical actions didn't move Celeste. On the contrary, they scared her. If he were this good at cleaning up, perhaps he'd be equally great at cleaning a murder

  • Love in Twilight   Chapter 1788 Your Daughter Drew This

    Calvin knew that Isobel had joined Prime Drones' board of directors, so he understood how busy she was.Most importantly, in everyone's hearts, Isobel was a child who knew what to do and what not to do. She was very clear-headed, so almost no one asked about her and Dexter.They all thought that since Isobel and Dexter were both adults and excellent individuals, they knew how to handle themselves.On this day, Isobel suddenly received a call from Celeste."Isobel, let me tell you something. I published a comic called Possession. You know about this, right?" Celeste suppressed her ecstasy.Isobel was stunned for a moment before she said in surprise, "I didn't know. How long have you been drawing this comic? How would I know you'd be published if you didn't tell me?"Celeste giggled. "I wanted to give you a surprise. The publishing house is sending me 500 copies of this book for me to sign, but it's gonna take a long time to reach Emmeria from Merania. I asked them to send five cop

    Not long after, Cassandra returned. When she saw that Celeste's book had been published, she smiled. "Not bad.""That's right. Your son and daughter are both very promising," Isobel said. "Hector's majoring in programming and has a bright future ahead of him. I heard he's already set up a search engine and is making plenty of money.""I've just read the comic, and the plot's really something else. I'm gonna hand this copy to Moonlight Entertainment and have them evaluate whether it's suitable to be adapted into a drama." Calvin said, "Ned, can you lend me one of your two books? I'll send it to the person in charge tomorrow.""I'll give you mine. Anyway, I'll be…" Cassandra wanted to give her book to Calvin. She wanted to say that she would be very busy recently and wouldn't have time to read it."I'll give you mine. After all, my daughter's the one who drew it. I can get a copy from her anytime I want," Ned said as he tried his best to hide his smile.They all looked at him.Calv

    Isobel: [It's our family's honor to have you. Oh, right, my father told me that he wants Moonlight Entertainment to buy the film and television rights to your book. He said that it's very easy for this drama to be a hit with such a great plot. He also said that in order to raise your value, he's prepared to give you five million dollars for the copyright. This way, when you publish a book in the future, no one will dare to give you a cheap price.]Celeste's eyes lit up. [Wow. Thank Uncle Calvin on my behalf. He's the best!]Isobel: [Settle down and keep a low profile. Let's talk about it after you get the money.]Celeste was especially happy and went to class.She listened to this lesson very attentively.After class, she saw she'd received several WhatsApp messages. Isobel had sent them to her—they were screenshots of the comments she'd received on her post, and they were all saying they wanted to buy Celeste's comic.At this moment, Celeste was still a nobody who had yet to exp

    Celeste went to open the door with her pen in hand. The delivery guy from the restaurant was there, and there was someone behind him—Dexter.The smile on Celeste's face immediately fell.She took the takeout and wanted to close the door, but Dexter had already entered the house. He was carrying a huge food box.He was dressed in a suit and leather shoes, and the food box in his hand looked especially high-class. Instantly, it made the takeout in Celeste's hand look unpresentable."Are you eating takeout again?" He stared at her food.Celeste rolled her eyes and ignored him. She sat by the coffee table.Dexter did not say anything when he saw how hostile she was.Actually, he felt wronged. He'd treated Isobel like he would anyone else; the only mistake he'd made was to be blind enough to miss her feelings for him. Why did Celeste think it was so unforgivable?He'd later understood what Celeste's message meant. Using the word "already" wasn't appropriate, but he didn't explain hi

    Although Celeste did not have a big appetite, she had not eaten these things for a long time. Unknowingly, she had eaten a third of it.At this moment, the door opened…The living room of the house faced the main door. The first thing Dexter saw was the scene of Celeste gobbling the food.Celeste felt very awkward."Oh, there's also a bottle of ketchup. It was in the car. I forgot to give it to you just now." With that, he placed it before her.At this moment, Celeste's mind suddenly went blank, as if someone had "possessed" her. She knew that Dexter was teasing her, but she couldn't do anything about it. After all, she had been caught red-handed.She stared at Dexter in a daze.Before he left, he even said, "Eat slowly!"With that, he walked out. This time, she heard the lock click.Celeste knew that the ketchup was nothing but an excuse; he just wanted to catch her in the act. She'd lost the appetite to eat. Anyway, she was already full.Her phone pinged. It was a WhatsApp

    Benjamin walked to her side and suddenly hugged her. It was as if there were thousands of words that could not be said. Jacey did not refute. It was as if the two of them had known each other for a long time. It was as if they had known each other for a long time."Your mother did a good job with this exhibition," Jacey said."It's good. After all, you're an expert in this field," Benjamin said. "Or if you have any requests when you get married, tell my mother and let her customize the most beautiful jewelry for you.""Married?" Jacey didn't understand.She had never thought about marriage. Why did she feel so close to her when Benjamin mentioned it?She still felt quite confused."I'll treat you to a meal later?" Benjamin said. "What do you want to eat?"Jacey's eyes lit up. "Hotpot? How about a hotpot?"Benjamin smiled and said, "I thought you had a profound hobby. This is it."Jacey smiled again.Jacey didn't like the feeling of being surrounded by people, so she chose the

    Kenny smoked as he spoke. He had the look of a veteran in society. It was hard not to believe that he was a nouveau riche who did not hesitate to sacrifice the lives of his subordinates to save money."Sir, you've found the right person. Come and take a look." The workshop owner said. Then, he whispered a few words into Kenny's ear and asked, "Can you accept it?""What's so unacceptable about that? I'm definitely showing it to Party A. These people grew up in the countryside. What kind of milk have they drunk? I can't tell if it's true or not," Kenny said."Alright, alright," the workshop owner said with a smile."Just don't make it obvious. I'll go take a look at the manufacturing workshop." Kenny said.The owner of the workshop was initially quite shy, but Kenny said that he had ordered a lot, so the other party agreed.As soon as he entered the workshop, Jacey secretly turned on the pinhole camera when the workshop owner was not paying attention and filmed the production proce

    Jacey felt that under Kenny's serious and unsmiling appearance, there was a soft and warm heart.This note looked like it had been around for a long time. It was unknown how long Kenny searched last night before he found it and gave it to Jacey so easily.Jacey left.However, she did not expect that something would happen on her first day there.She brought a vacuum camera and made her clothes look like rural women's. After finding the milk production point, she said that she wanted to order milk in large quantities because she heard that the milk here was very cheap.The people in the workshop looked at each other and said, "I'm not selling!"The people in the workshop were very smart and vigilant. Their workshop had a fixed delivery channel. This woman was alone and was unlikely to be here to order. They found an excuse and sent Jacey away.No matter how much Jacey dawdled, the other party refused to let her in.For a moment, Jacey didn't know what to do. She was quite depres

    Jacey was a little stunned. She really didn't know much about what the parents were talking about.Moreover, she hadn't interacted with Benjamin for a few days. Moreover, when Ashlyn came to visit this time, she didn't say a word about him. It made her feel very uneasy. She even wondered if he didn't mean that at all. It was all her own wishful thinking…For the past few days, Benjamin had not come to look for Jacey. She had not contacted him either.However, a few days later, Jacey received a Whatsapp message from Benjamin. There were many photos. It was a rather high-class living room. There were boxes in the living room. The living room was simple and noble, like a top-notch courtyard house.[This is the showroom and display cabinet for my mother's medieval jewelry. How about letting your mother take a look?] Benjamin said.[Where is this place? This place is so beautiful.][My mother's dowry. The courtyard house in Genovia.] Benjamin said.Jacey thought to herself, "As expec

    Today, Benjamin had already returned home."How is it? How's your first time meeting your in-laws alone?" Calvin teased Ashlyn."It's quite good. I'm preparing to hold a medieval jewelry exhibition and then let my employees learn medieval video skills. I said that I wanted to use their jewelry as an exhibition, but they didn't even want the deposit. How generous," Ashlyn said lazily as she leaned against the sofa."It's… it's over?" Calvin looked at Ashlyn and said in surprise.Benjamin sat there and smiled."What else?" Ashlyn asked."What are you going to do this time? Aren't you going to look for your daughter-in-law? Did you see what she looked like?" Calvin poured a cup of tea for Ashlyn.After so many years, Ashlyn still hadn't changed from her usual macho self. In fact, she was even more macho than before. Perhaps Calvin had been the one to deal with everything after marriage, developing Ashlyn's habit of not using her brain.Of course, it only meant that she didn't use

    For some reason, Ashlyn felt like crying when she saw this. In the past, these jewelry had traveled to another country. Now, these jewelry were all back with stories.She thought about how the person who owned these jewelry had brought them overseas and brought them back…She felt that the Irving family was worthy of admiration.Linda had gone out at some point. Seeing that Ashlyn was looking at her very seriously, she didn't disturb her.When she came in again, she was carrying a cup of coffee. The fragrant Americano she'd just ordered from the coffee machine on the first floor. It was made from good coffee beans.She handed the coffee to Ashlyn."Have a cup of coffee when you're tired. Anyway, these jewelry don't have long legs. They won't run away on their own," Linda said. "You can come and take a look whenever you want. I've always been here."Only then did Ashlyn feel that she had been watching for an hour or two, but she had always been like a pious primary school student

    On Saturday afternoon, Ashlyn drove to Jacey's house, a very simple villa.Ashlyn knew that writers liked to live in such a quiet place because they had inspiration in such a place.Jacey's mother, Linda, was already standing on her steps to welcome her.Linda was dressed in a Chinese-style robe. She looked very ancient, but because she was slender, she looked especially good. She looked like a fairy.Ashlyn was dressed in a very fashionable modern outfit. She was wearing a knee-length skirt, pearl earrings, and earrings. She looked especially round and beautiful. One look and one could tell that she was the kind of person who had never experienced the blow of life."I'm Jacey's mother. Nice to meet you, Mrs. Conrad." Linda reached out and held Isobel's hand. "Jacey said that you're coming to our house to take a look. I am so happy. I specially brought all the jewelry from the other houses here and packed them up. If these jewelry can be displayed in the exhibition and let everyon

    "Excuse me, how did you know about me?" Jacey asked."Oh, Benjamin's phone was on the table that day. He went to the washroom and I happened to see the photo album he was looking through. I picked it up and saw these few pieces of jewelry. You know it too. As jewelry makers, we won't let go of those rare jewelry no matter what. I asked Benjamin where these pieces of jewelry came from and he told me about you," Ashlyn said neither servile nor overbearing.She understood a girl's mentality very well. She knew that if the woman found out that the man had taken the initiative to leak her news to her parents, she would be very disgusted and feel passive. Therefore, she did not say that. Instead, she said that she had seen it herself. She even said that Benjamin was looking at these photos at that time.Jacey's heart would probably feel warm. After all, a man was looking at her photo behind her back. She should have a good impression of this man.Jacey really thought so. When she heard A

    After Benjamin returned home, he showed Ashlyn the jewelry he had taken for Jacey.Ashlyn was very knowledgeable. One look at this jewelry and she knew that it was priceless.Moreover, the girl wearing the jewelry also had extremely good skin and was extremely delicate.Calvin, who was sitting at the side, also watched.However, Ashlyn didn't just look at the jewelry. She said, "You only bought jewelry. Who is this person wearing jewelry behind you?"Ashlyn asked Benjamin gossipily."Don't ask," Benjamin said.Ashlyn smiled. "You said that you only took photos of the jewelry but didn't take photos of her. Aren't you trying to arouse my curiosity? Now that I'm curious, you're not making a move. However, I've been working on researching National Jewelry recently, so I'm lacking samples in this area. When are you going to ask this girl out? Let me take a closer look. From her appearance, I think she's dressed very well. Moreover, I can see her face from her bone structure. I think
