It seemed easy to watch those videos; the methods they used looked simple.Solomon, unwilling to admit defeat, wanted to find another video to learn from. However, when he checked the time, it was almost noon.He had not even finished preparing a single dish.Frustrated, Solomon picked up his phone to send Ines a sad emoji.[What's wrong?] Ines replied promptly.Solomon sent, [I tried to make ribs for you but failed twice.]After sending the message, Solomon also sent a pleading emoji.As soon as he sent it, Ines called.Solomon answered the call, feigning dejection. "Sweetheart, I'm so bad at this. I can't even make ribs."On the other end of the phone, Ines could not help but laugh. "It's okay, there's always room for improvement."Ines continued, "I'll teach you this weekend. Soon, you’ll be making the best ribs ever.""Okay."Solomon asked, "Sweetheart, are you hungry? How about I pick you up when you get off work at noon, and we head out for lunch?"Since he could not
After lunch, Solomon drove Ines back to the TV station.Ines thought he would leave after dropping her off, but to her surprise, he got out of the car with her.Solomon walked up to Ines. "I'll walk you up."Ines looked at him. "No need. I'll remember to take my medicine. You should head back."Solomon took her bag and held her hand, insisting, "I'll walk you up."Unable to resist, Ines went along with him.Solomon had visited the TV station to see Ines in the past. However, this was the first time he openly held her hand like this.People around them, recalling Solomon's post on social media from yesterday, instantly understood they were now together. If Solomon had made it official on social media, it must be good news.Solomon held Ines's hand tightly as he escorted her to her office.He poured her a glass of water and handed her the medicine. "We still have some time. After you take your medicine, you can rest on the couch for a bit."Ines nodded, took the medicine, and
During his absence from Richworth, two vice presidents handled Solomon's company affairs. Although there were no major issues, when he returned, he decided to check on things himself.Upon arriving at the company, Solomon held a brief impromptu meeting. After it ended, he spent some time in his office dealing with paperwork.Just as he was getting busy, the office door pushed open.Solomon looked up to see his mother, Patricia, walking in."Mom, what brings you here?" Patricia smiled. "I was shopping nearby with a friend and thought of dropping by the office to rest for a bit."As she spoke, she glanced around the office, searching for something.Solomon chuckled, immediately understanding his mother's intentions. "Mom, what are you looking for?"Patricia sat on the couch. Still smiling, her gaze shifted towards the lounge area. "Oh, nothing. I'm just wondering if you're alone."Solomon walked and sat beside her, smiling. “Of course. Are you expecting someone else with me?”
Patricia was not an unreasonable person. When she heard her son defending Ines in every sentence, she guessed he was very serious about their relationship this time.She trusted her son’s judgment.“In that case, bring her home soon so your dad and I can meet her.”Solomon nodded with a smile. “Okay, I’ll bring her home for dinner once she recovers from her cold.”Patricia instructed, “Remember to inform me beforehand when you bring her home. Also, what does Ines like to eat? Does she have any dietary restrictions? I need to know these things.”“She’s not picky about food, and she doesn’t have any specific dietary restrictions, but... she doesn’t like bitter things, like kale.”“Okay, I got it.”Patricia did not stay long at the company and went home after chatting with Solomon.Once he had finished up some documents, Solomon checked his phone. Ines had not messaged him yet. He thought about giving her a call to ask how much longer she would be working, but he was worried about
“We’ve been busy lately.”Solomon led Ines inside and sat by the window, asking, “Is there anything new on the menu?”The owner handed Solomon the menu with a smile. “You’ve come at the right time. We just launched a few new dishes. Take a look.”Solomon ordered their signature dish and handed the menu to Ines. “What do you want to eat?”Ines chose a couple of light dishes.After ordering, Solomon looked at her and said, “My mom came to the office looking for me this afternoon. She wanted to see you, but I managed to send her back.”Ines was a little surprised. “She knows we’re back together?”Solomon held her hand. “Yeah, I told her. She asked me to bring you home for dinner, but I said to wait until you recover from your cold.”Remembering her last encounter with Patricia, Ines felt a bit nervous. “Did your mom say anything?”Solomon poured tea for her and said, “Yep. She told me to take good care of you and asked about your preferences. I’ll have to also inform her before b
In Monafett.Under Tracey’s dedicated care, Arthur’s injuries finally recovered.After being discharged from the hospital, at Tracey’s insistence, Arthur rested for two more days at the hotel before they went on a romantic trip to Eufopa on the third day.Arthur had gone to many places in Eufopa before but had always gone for business and had no time to appreciate the scenery. This time, with Tracey, they did not have to do anything and could go anywhere and do whatever they wanted to relax and enjoy themselves.Their first stop was Ravis. After checking into the hotel in the evening and having dinner, Arthur took Tracey to the largest nightclub in the world.Normally, he would not allow her to come to a place like this. However, he was present, and she was interested, so he decided to take her here to explore.As they got out of the car, Tracey excitedly grabbed Arthur’s hand and dived into the crowd. The liveliness here was incomparable to other cities, with neon lights everywh
How childish!However, she was happy that he reconciled with Ines.Blair: [Stay safe while you’re abroad.]Tracey: [Yep. Don’t worry. Arthur’s here, so nothing will happen.]Tracey chatted in the group for a while before putting away her phone to look at Arthur. “Let’s drive to eastern Karls Prairie tomorrow. I heard the scenery there is very beautiful this time of the year.”Arthur thought about it. “We’ll have to rent a four-wheel drive and prepare some things. Let’s set off the day after tomorrow. The scenery south of Karls Prairie is also nice. We can spend some time by the shore.”“Okay.”Arthur stroked her head. “Are you tired? We can go back to the hotel.”Tracey shook her head. “I’m not tired. I want to play a little longer.”Arthur took out his phone and checked the time. “There’s a parade performance on the street at 10:30 PM. Do you want to go?”“Sure.” Tracey looked at the time and saw that it was already 9:30 p.m.“Let’s rest for a while before we go, then. Lest
In Richworth.On Saturday, Solomon and Ines moved back to South Garden Apartment together.This time, when they moved, Solomon bought some additional furniture in advance and converted the spare bedroom into a home theater.The apartment originally had three bedrooms. They lived in the master bedroom, one bedroom was converted into a study, and the remaining bedroom was empty.Solomon knew Ines liked to relax at home and watch movies, so he converted that room into a private theater for the two of them.Ines looked at him in confusion. “Isn’t it the same as watching movies in the living room? What’s the point of specifically converting this room into a home theater?”“The atmosphere in this room is better than in the living room.”Solomon spoke while pulling Ines into the room. When the door closed, the curtains in the room also automatically closed.He turned on the blue ambient light and said, “Activate theater mode.”Immediately, the voice assistant in the room said, “Sure
