Moe woke up around six in the morning as he could not sleep well. He decided to get up and make breakfast for Suzie.Normally, Suzie would not wake up early unless she had to go to work, but today was an exception. As she turned over to cuddle Moe, she could not find him. Puzzled, she reluctantly opened her eyes to see what was going on."Moe?" Suzie called out.However, since Moe was busy in the kitchen, he did not hear her.Suzie rubbed her slightly disheveled hair and walked out, curious about the commotion in the kitchen. She called out to him, "Moe."Moe walked out from the kitchen and asked, "What's up?""What are you doing? It smells so good," Suzie said, heading toward the kitchen."Breakfast," Moe said, grabbing something from the side and holding it behind his back as he approached her. Suzie found it was all her favorite dishes. She was about to turn around and pinch his cheek, praising him for being thoughtful, when a bouquet suddenly appeared.Moe stared at Suzie
Caroline replied, "You need it more than I do, Suzie. After all, you've been single for twenty-eight years.""What's wrong?" Moe noticed her displeasure."She said my announcement was fake," Suzie grumbled."Ignore her. We know the truth, and that's what matters," Moe advised. Suzie was bothered by this. "No! Ever since she got her first boyfriend, she's been flaunting it in front of me and subtly implying that I'm single and unwanted!"She would have brushed it off in the past, but she felt the need to confront her now."What about taking a photo together?" Moe asked, picking up on the voice message content. Suzie was still contemplating when her phone vibrated again. It was an incoming call from Caroline. Suzie slid to answer and put it on speaker between her and Moe."Do you really have a boyfriend now?" Caroline's voice was rather seductive. "Of course," Suzie replied."How about meeting up tomorrow? It's a perfect opportunity for us to see who your boyfriend is," Caro
Suzie stopped typing, her eyes lighting up.Exactly! Moe did say to meet at the entrance, and he did not promise to dine and chat with them."Momo, you're a genius!" Suzie was all smiles.Moe felt a little embarrassed under her praise, muttering, "It's nothing.""Knowing those girls, they'll definitely try to flirt with you once they see you. Don't worry, I'll protect you," Suzie, who understood Caroline and her friends' penchant for changing boyfriends every so often, said."Okay," Moe responded.Their recent posts on social media also caused quite a stir among their friends, especially Yoel. As soon as he saw their updates, he called Moe, launching into a barrage of questions."Aren't you two a little heartless? You didn't even tell me about such a significant matter! I'm the one pulling the strings for you two!" Yoel complained. "We just didn't want to disturb your honeymoon with your wife with such trivial matters," Suzie offered a quick excuse.Moe chimed in, "Exactly.
As a result, he responded with the briefest replies whenever Suzie reached out to him during that time."Forget it! Considering you're behaving now, I won't hold it against you. But we need to settle the payment with Yoel," Suzie said as she put her phone away.Moe asked, "How much?"Suzie flipped through her chat records with Yoel and continued, "Two dollars per message. He started charging when he was about to get married, and it came out to around 14,000 valid messages. He offered a discount, though, at 25,000 dollars."Moe quickly sent a message to Yoel.[Moe: Do you think making money from Suzie like this is a good idea?][Yoel: Our deal was to settle the payment once you two were officially together. If you hadn't gotten together, it would've been free. In other words, I'm making money off you.][Moe: Joshua pays you a good salary.] [Moe: Who would complain about having too much money?]Moe sighed.[Yoel: Transfer the money quickly. I need to spend it on my wife.]Moe
"Why didn't I know about this?" Moe thought back carefully, not recalling any hints."Well, you guys weren't really together, so we couldn't make it too obvious. We just gossiped about it occasionally among ourselves."She knew better than to create any trouble or discomfort for the people involved when hoping for imaginary relationships. It was all in good fun."And now? Are you still hoping for that?" Moe asked."No, not anymore. You're mine," Suzie replied with utmost sincerity.Moe nodded. He had already decided that if Suzie were shipping him with Yoel, he would have to give Yoel a good beating. That way, Suzie would have no choice but to stop.After they finished dinner, they took a leisurely stroll along the road. Even though Suzie held Moe's hand, she still felt like it was all a dream. She had been waiting for this moment for over a decade, and she never expected it to go so smoothly.The next day arrived in the blink of an eye. With less than two hours left until they
There were three men and three women, clearly three couples."Long time no see. Is this your boyfriend's car?" Caroline greeted as she approached Suzie. Suzie naturally countered, "Is there a problem with that?""Of course not, just a bit curious how someone driving a car worth around twenty thousand dollars is taking us to Paradise," Caroline replied with a mischievous smile, purposely comparing their heights. "It's none of your concern." Moe stepped out of the car, standing beside Suzie and holding her hand. His icy demeanor was quite captivating. As soon as he appeared, all three women's attention was drawn to him, thinking Suzie's 'fake' boyfriend was so cool and exceptionally handsome. "Hey, handsome, whatever Suzie's paying you, I'll give you double. How about being my boyfriend?" Caroline said as she showed great interest in Moe, completely fixated on him."I'll give you triple.""I'll give you four times more!"The other two joined in.In their eyes, hiring someo
The group stood there, exchanging bewildered looks, clearly puzzled about how Moe and Suzie had managed to get inside."Is it even possible for Suzie to have a reservation at this place?" Caroline asked her companions."No way. If you make a reservation now, you might only get in three years later," the woman beside Caroline replied, looking at Moe and Suzie."Then how did they get in?" Caroline was curious."Could it be that Suzie's boyfriend is some big shot?" Caroline's boyfriend, whom she had hired for this occasion, chimed in. He thought he had seen Moe somewhere."Have you ever seen a big shot who's this young, good-looking, and gentle? Even if there is one, would he be interested in Suzie?" Caroline blurted out, unconsciously thinking it was impossible for Suzie, who had been single for 28 years, to find such an ideal man. The group fell silent, unable to refute the statement. There were indeed many young heirs like Suzie among them, including the three of them."Just go
"If there's nothing else, I'll hang up. I have things to attend to on my end."Brandon quickly dismissed them and abruptly ended the call without waiting for their reply.The group remained suspicious of what they heard but could not think of any other reasons, so they chose to believe it for the time being.Meanwhile, Moe and Suzie were enjoying their meal inside. Suzie was delighted, surrounded by French Gothic architecture she had always adored due to its historical charm."Do you think they'll look into you?" Suzie gossiped.Moe appeared puzzled. "For what?""Because the staff let you in so easily." Suzie shared her thoughts about the group she knew well.Moe did not seem to care about these concerns. "If they want to, let them." The meal was a delightful experience for Suzie. She finally understood why this place had only three tables available each day. The food was exquisite, unique, fresh, and tantalizing to all the senses. Even if it meant waiting in line for months
