"Who says you can't eat out just because your family owns a restaurant?" Isabella countered nonchalantly.Luther was rendered speechless by her reply.Feeling the strange atmosphere between the two, Roderick could not help but feel puzzled. As far as he was aware, Luther had feelings for Isabella. So, why was Luther treating her that way?"I'm officially starting work next Monday; I've already completed the onboarding process. Is there anything specific I need to know?" Isabella proactively spoke to Luther, unaffected by his cold demeanor."You have a one-week probationary period. If you don't pass, you're out."It was obvious that Luther was purposely making it hard for Isabella. "Understood." Isabella nodded. She did not linger in the office, immediately turning to look for Joshua.Luther had expected Isabella to talk to him, to inquire why he had not replied to her letters or met her all these years. Yet, while he anxiously awaited these questions, she did not ask anythi

Whenever a new employee joins the company, there will usually be a welcome dinner. Hence, Isabella intended to use this event as her first step in pursuing Luther.While Isabella remained emotionally unaffected and went on her day as usual, Luther, on the other hand, was quite restless. He sat in his chair, lost in thought, replaying the scene of Isabella's sudden appearance in his office. Over the years, he had secretly visited her many times, but they never had never met."Mr. Brooks?" Roderick tentatively asked.Luther was forced to snap back to reality, but he was still somewhat distracted. "What is it?""This document is needed urgently." Roderick pointed to the document that had been sitting in front of him for two hours, still unsigned. He lowered his voice as he spoke, "Would you like to sign it now?"Luther glanced briefly at the document, ensured there were no issues, and promptly signed it. Once done, he handed it over to Roderick.As Roderick was about to leave, Lut

"Do you hate me?" Isabella asked him.Luther did not respond to her question, opting for silence as he continued eating his dinner. That version of him reminded Isabella of their first meeting during that winter break, when he had been equally stubborn, keeping to himself without saying a word.However, Isabella was not one to feel awkward and decided to shift the conversation. "Dad, is he always this silent when you're with him?""Pretty much," Joshua admitted. Luther was not one for idle chit-chat. He would always communicate work-related matters efficiently, conveying what needed to be said concisely. In fact, over the years, Luther rarely engaged in small talk.Isabella glanced at Luther but refrained from saying more. Instead, she savored her meal, stuffing piece after piece of meat into her mouth. After a few bites, she praised the staff who had prepared the beef stew, commenting on their excellent culinary skills. The beef stew prepared at home was relatively healthier

Luther's eyes darkened, avoiding Isabella's gaze.Attend..."Dad, have more." Isabella continued eating her beef stew, serving Joshua some vegetables. She acted like the previous conversation was just a brief exchange between friends.After dinner, Luther chatted with Joshua for a while before leaving. As soon as he departed, Joshua went to Isabella's room. Isabella was engrossed in a game with her best friends and Nick when he entered. Right when the game reached a crucial point, Isabella told Joshua, "Ten minutes."Joshua nodded, taking a seat on the nearby couch.Isabella's friends on the other end of the game asked, "What do you mean by ten minutes?""That we're finishing the game in ten minutes. I have something to do after," Isabella replied. "What could you possibly have to do? It's already late at night," they asked. However, their curiosity got the best of them, and they continued, "Aren't you in Jiverton to pursue someone? How's the progress?""Zero progress," Isab

Luther was lying on his bed in a loose-fitting robe, with only the bedside lamp casting a soft glow in the dim room. He held a picture frame containing a photo of a girl in a school uniform, her smile radiating warmth. If Isabella were there, she would immediately recognize the girl in the photo as herself. Luther could not bring himself to put the picture down and had been staring at it for quite some time. He had always lived a solitary life, but since Isabella's unexpected appearance that afternoon, his thoughts and emotions were spiraling out of control.Around two in the morning, Luther turned off the bedside lamp, but the photo remained in his hand. He tossed and turned in bed until six in the morning. Unable to sleep, he decided to get up and change into some comfortable casual clothing before going for an early morning run.Over the next few days, Isabella did not reach out to him. She spent her time either accompanying Joshua around various places or catching up on what

Isabella said, taking a small sip of her drink and acting a bit tipsy, "Even though it's in the past, those childhood memories have always stayed with me. I bet you don't know how I felt when I didn't receive your replies."Luther noticed her mood change. Isabella leaned on the table, tilting her head to look at him. "Luther, do you find me annoying?"Luther noticed her reddening cheeks and her slightly playful tone. He decisively took her glass, saying, "You're getting drunk. I'll take you home."Isabella shook her head. "No."Regardless of her protests, Luther took her belongings and carried her out. His gaze was unreadable, and he held back whatever emotions erupting from his heart.Why did she still want to drink despite her low alcohol tolerance? "Why didn't you respond to my messages back then?" Isabella murmured in his arms.Luther hesitated for a moment."Why did you disappear without a word? You have no idea how sad that made me."Luther placed her in the passenger

Seeing Isabella's uncharacteristic behavior and realizing she was too intoxicated to remember, Luther accidentally said, "Who told you I had a girlfriend?""You said it," Isabella accused him.Luther's gaze gradually darkened. "You believed it just because I said it?"Isabella nodded, appearing extraordinarily docile."I don't have a girlfriend. I lied to you. Now, be a good girl and get some rest. I'll take you home in the morning." Luther locked eyes with her, speaking authoritatively but laced with gentleness."Then why did you tell me you had a girlfriend?" Isabella seemed to be challenging him more fiercely on this issue.Luther concealed his emotions and replied, "No particular reason.""If you don't tell me, I won't go to sleep," Isabella pouted, transforming from her carefree and assertive self during the day into a little crybaby.Luther stayed quiet, his emotions churning within.Isabella, with her enchanting eyes, locked gazes with him. As their eyes met, Luther alm

Isabella took her toiletries and made her way to the bathroom. He saw her wobble over and asked, "Are you sure you can manage?""Mmhmm..." Isabella nodded in response.After she entered, Luther closed the bathroom door. He had prepared the bathwater for her, but given her tipsy state, he still felt somewhat concerned.Ten minutes passed, and Isabella was comfortably soaking in a bubble bath. Her thoughts turned to Luther. Since she was 'drunk', should she put on her clothes neatly or just slip into something casual? Either way, it did not seem entirely appropriate for a young lady.While lost in these thoughts, she heard a knocking at the door. She had not even had a chance to respond when the bathroom door was pushed open, catching her off guard. Luther was supposed to be an honorable man... Could he possibly be faking it?"Hello, I'm Tatiana, your boyfriend's neighbor. He called for help, so I've come to assist you. Is it okay if I come in?" a sweet, friendly female voice gr
