It was a day with dark clouds overcast in the sky above. An engagement ceremony was happening on this fateful day. By the time Isabel had rushed over after receiving news of the engagement, the main characters of the night were in the middle of exchanging their engagement rings, witnessed by their relatives and friends. Even from a distance, she could recognize the young man in a dazzling white suit. "Decker!” She let out a tremendous shout with everything she had in her. She ran onto the red carpet and tried to stop the man on stage from putting on the ring. A thick silence fell over the scene. Everyone turned to look at the brazen woman who had intruded on the ceremony. Decker, who was facing his fiancée with the brightest smile ever seen, turned around and regarded Isabel with a look of shock. His expression was then quickly masked over with stark indifference. As if Isabel was a stranger to him. The way he looked at Isabel made her heart throb, but more so t

Smack! Without warning, he delivered a slap across Isabel’s face. If not for his other hand holding her chin firmly, she would have easily been swung off balance. Her head which was already fuzzy to begin with had grown dizzier. She looked at Decker with stark surprise and met his ominously black eyes. There was not a trace of warmth underneath them. They looked like mere organs with a purpose. He said sharply, “Have I been too lax with you?” He continued, “I’ll forgive you this time but if you ever do this again, I’ll chase you back where you came from!” He rudely flung her away before marching back to his car. The engines roared as he drove off. Leaving behind Isabel and the biting cold, cruel gusts of wind beat against her soaked body. The only part of her body that produced any heat was her pulsing cheeks. The sharp pain made her tremble all over. Her chest tightened, and she wrapped her arms protectively around herself. At the same time, a ball of

Isabel wrote a reply with the hand that was not aching, “Yeah, I’m home.” Flint asked, “I saw Roland helping you into the car, was he the one who sent you home?” Isabel replied, “Yeah, I asked him to drive me home.” Flint lectured her. “Sis, I know that you’re the one who hired him. But don’t forget that he’s still the vice president of Carter Corporation at the end of the day. He’s already busy enough with work, now you’re troubling him with having to send you home.” Isabel grimaced. “It’s along the way anyway.” It was true, Roland lived in the high-end residential area next to hers. They first met on a fateful night a year ago. That night, she had just finished shooting a scene and was about to head home for a good night’s rest when she nearly ran over Roland in the middle of the road. It was in a remote part of the town that rarely saw any traffic. He had been waiting for his rental car for ages to no avail and ended up resorting to stopping the first car that h

Isabel put away her phone and went into the bathroom. She cupped a handful of cold water and splashed it on her face. Five years, it had been five whole years. It was better to forget about the past. … It was already midnight by the time she finished washing up and was ready to settle in for the night. She fell asleep swiftly and was woken up by the alarm clock. She had always taken her work very seriously. She did not need her assistant to wake her or help her prepare for the day. She was out of the door in no time. Her assistant and driver showed up to pick her up. After getting in the car, she was driven to their filming location for the day. Ding! Her phone suddenly rang. It was a text from Roland. “Miss Carter, I emailed last week’s report to you.” Isabel frowned when she read the message. At this hour? Considering how he got home so late last night, he could not have stayed up all night working, or could he? She replied perfunctorily a

Isabel’s itinerary for the day was filled out. After shooting a scene before noon, she rushed to the studio for an appearance on a variety show. It was midnight by the time she got home. Her stomach was growling. Just as the car was about to pull into her apartment complex, she called after the driver, “Stop.” The driver stopped the car. Carla stifled a yawn and asked, “Isabel, what's wrong?" "I'm going to get something to eat, do you want anything?” Isabel asked. Carla suddenly appeared conflicted for a moment, she stammered after a brief silence, "Okay, I’ll go with you.” Carla had been working for Isabel for several years now. Isabel was very perceptive of even her mildest gestures. Sensing that Carla was exhausted, she dismissed her for the day. “You know what, you better get some rest, I’ll go myself.” Carla grew concerned. "I should go with you, it’s so late already.” "There are police patrols in the area, I’ll be fine. Don’t worry.” With that,

Why was he staring at her from outside if he was not hungry? Before she could tell Roland off, he spoke, “You shouldn’t eat barbecue at such an hour. It’s not good for your digestion. You better stop eating.” Huh? Why was he telling her what she could or could not eat? How dare he try to control her! However, there was something about the commanding tone of his voice, coupled with the serious look on his face that made her briefly consider taking his advice. To her surprise, she was not angry at him. Still, she brushed him off dismissively. "I don't need you to worry about me. You can go home if you’re not going to eat.” After that, she took a bite at another tender slice of grilled meat before reaching for the can of beer. When she brought it to her lips, she felt a force tugging in the opposite direction. She looked over to see Roland’s hands firmly gripping the can, stopping her from taking it. She frowned. "Let go." He held it firmly and insisted. "Don

Isabel had eaten Roland’s mother’s cooking several times. The first time was after Roland was officially hired as the vice president of Carter Corporation. He mentioned that this was his mother’s way of thanking Isabel for helping her back then. Isabel never thought much of what she did for his mother since it did not take much effort on her part. However, Roland sounded very sincere when he invited her. Another factor was his irresistibly handsome face which made it near impossible for her to say no. She thought it was going to be a regular meal and wanted to get it over with quickly. To her surprise, his mother had made a sumptuous feast fit for a king where the table was stacked full of different dishes and all of them tasted of gourmet quality. She even thought she was dining at a five-star restaurant at one point. Furthermore, it was cuisine from Southboro that she had not tasted for a long time. Although Southboro was a place associated with painful memories, the q

She looked at the table and the empty plates laid on it, then she remarked, “Isabel sure eats a lot.” She turned to Roland. “Roland, are you full?" "I'm full." After a moment of silence, he asked, "Mom, did you make any more cookies?” Martha made a face and said, “Hold on, I’ll make something for you.” With that, she went into the kitchen. After a while, she emerged with a bowl of noodles. Roland took his time with the noodles. His mother sat across from him and looked at him tenderly. “Roland, why did she leave in such a hurry?” "She’s only here for supper.” Martha regarded him silently. She gave him a sideways glance and seemed slightly upset. She questioned him, “Why didn’t you ask her to stay for the night?” “There’s no need for that. She lives nearby.” Martha sighed. “Roland, don't you get what I’m trying to say here?” "I do.” Roland continued after a brief silence, “I don’t think I'm worthy enough to become her partner right now.” Martha
