He had just taken a few bites of his food when Nora, who was across from him, was already done eating. She said, “Mr. Julian, I’m done eating, so I’ll leave first. You don’t have to send me back. I’ll take a cab back by myself.”

Nora felt that it was a bit of a waste to end an exquisite meal like this in such a hurry, but there was nothing she could do about it. She wanted to let him stay to slowly enjoy the meal.

Julian would not let her go back alone, so he also grabbed his belongings and stood up as he said, “Let’s go. I’ll send you back.”

Nora wanted to refuse, but he had already walked up to her. He placed his hand on her slender waist and hugged her with the intention of walking out of the private room.

Nora was startled when he hugged her waist. She quickly pushed his hand away and looked at him warily as she stood aside. Julian felt that she was staring at him as if he was some kind of savage beast, so he extended his hand to her and said, “Let’s hold hands, then.”

    “Isn't it strange for you to refer to me as Mr. Julian when you're already my girlfriend? “Strange?” Nora did not feel the same as he did, so she said, “I think it’s fine. I think it sounds nice.” Julian thought, ‘Of course she thinks it sounds nice—she’s already used to it!’ Hence, he continued insisting, “Let’s change the way you address me. When you address me so formally, I feel as if you’re treating me like an outsider instead of a boyfriend.”Nora could only ask him, “What do you think I should address you as, then?” Nora did not even know that she would have to address her partner differently when she was in a relationship. Julian stroked his chin, tilted his head, and thought for a moment before he replied, “Juju?”Nora had goosebumps all over her body. It was so corny that she could not even bring herself to say it, so she asked him, “Is there really a difference?”“Of course there is.” Julian disagreed with her thoughts.“Mr. Julian is a title to address your e

    After Nora had washed up, she lay on her bed, and the man’s pleasant voice came to mind when she closed her eyes. She took out her cell phone, opened her social media account with the username, ‘Complexity Made Simple’, and carefully wrote a post. ‘There was absolutely no feeling of being in a relationship at all on the first day of establishing our relationship.’She then planned to go to sleep after putting her cell phone away. She took out her cell phone again after a while and edited the previous post before reposting it. ‘There was absolutely no feeling of being in a relationship at all on the first day of establishing our relationship, but his voice sounded very pleasant over the phone.’She fell asleep peacefully. In the following week, Nora was so busy with her thesis that she had completely forgotten that she was someone’s girlfriend. A certain boyfriend seemed to have forgotten that she was his girlfriend too, and the two did not contact each other at all.After Nora was

    He knew that she was not the same as the kind of women he used to date. She was a pure and innocent girl, so he could not cross this boundary no matter what.In addition, she was Ryan’s sister. He could date her, but if he really dumped her after he slept with her, Ryan would kill him. He was not that irrational, and at that point in time, his friendship with Ryan was more important than possessing her. So, he could only run to the bathroom to relieve himself. When he opened the bathroom door, Nora had already fled back to her bedroom. He smiled and changed into clean clothes before he knocked on her bedroom door and said, “You can come out now. I’ve put on my clothes.”Nora opened her bedroom door slightly and ensured that he was fully dressed before she walked out. He had changed into a set of casual clothes. He was wearing a white shirt and black pants, and he still looked dashing even though he had simply blow-dried his hair after washing it. He looked casual and devilish.

    “It’s my treat. Consider this as a reward since you’re dog-tired after your business trip.”She laughed cheekily and deliberately emphasized the word ‘dog-tired’. Julian wanted to grab her and punish her, but he was really hungry, tired, and sleepy. He had stayed up all night before catching the flight, and he spent his flight finishing up a report. He did not manage to catch a wink at all. He really could not stay up anymore after taking a shower and unwinding. Nora did not expect that Julian would fall asleep on her couch before the takeout arrived. She found that he was already asleep after she returned from answering a call in her bedroom. She could tell that he was really exhausted. She had seen her brother, Ryan, stay up late when he was working hard on his projects, and he would also fall asleep as soon as his head touched the pillow when he came home, especially when he had just taken over Pierce Group, which was a mess at the time. Nora was conflicted now that he had

    She slept late because she had slept too much during the day. After nestling in bed and watching a movie, she saw that it was already 12.30 AM and hurriedly lay down to sleep. Her cell phone rang, and she clicked on it to see a picture accompanied by a few words. She almost jumped out of bed in anger. No longer sleepy, she sat up on the bed with her cell phone in her hand. She was half-kneeling on her bed, and she almost stood up in anger and shock. She tapped on her cell phone before she scrutinized the photo and message carefully to make sure that she had not read it wrongly.He was lying on her bed shirtless as he smiled provocatively at the camera. He even said shameless words, saying that the style of her lingerie was too conservative, and that he would take her to buy the styles that he liked instead!Nora was angry and embarrassed, and her face flushed red. She had never expected him to be so shameless. She was kind enough to take him in, but he had actually done such a

    Mrs. Maton was immediately curious after she heard him say that she was a good girl, so she asked, “Whose daughter is it? Do you have any plans to settle down and get married?”Julian had a headache whenever he heard the word ‘married’. Mrs. Maton had been anxiously urging him to get married ever since his good friend, Ryan, got married a few years ago. After a period of time, she realized that he was completely unmoved and eventually gave up on the thought in frustration. Unexpectedly, she had started urging him to get married again lately. According to reliable sources, it was because many of Mrs. Maton’s friends had been promoted to mothers-in-law or grandmothers this year, which made Mrs. Maton feel anxious again. Sometimes, when he put himself in Mrs. Maton’s shoes to think of things from her perspective, he felt that it was reasonable for her to feel anxious. Her peers were grandmothers who were enjoying time with their grandchildren, but her son had neither a romantic interes

    If he was not interested in her, would he agree to teach her how to be in a relationship, as if he had nothing better to do?He was not that noble. He would rather die than be in a relationship with a woman he was not interested in. Although he was a womanizer, he could not be with just any woman. In fact, he was very picky, and he did not fancy all women. He was willing to indulge in whatever she had said and follow her pace because he was slightly interested in her. However, he was simply interested in her, just like how he had been temporarily interested in those women that he used to date. He did not have the thought of holding onto her, or for them to grow old together. Nora could not help but feel even angrier when she heard him saying that ‘he could not help it and could only react that way’. Just when she was about to tell him that it would be better for them to end the relationship, Julian suddenly spoke up again. “I’m sorry for breaking my promise to you. I promised to

    Julian was terribly upset, and the young girl’s words where she asked him to dress up to look younger kept popping up in his mind all morning.After Julian concentrated on his work for a while, Benjamin knocked on the door again and came in. Julian frowned impatiently and asked, “What is it?”Benjamin observed his expression with a smile as he handed a fashion magazine over to Julian. “Didn’t you ask me about how you can dress to look younger? This is the latest issue of the fashion magazine, ‘Stylez’. There are photos of some popular young men's style and fashion inside. Perhaps you can refer to the magazine on how you can dress up to look younger.”Julian frowned deeply and stared at Benjamin before he finally took the magazine. Benjamin quickly turned around and left in relief. After returning to his office, Benjamin thought about his boss’s various strange behaviors throughout the morning. He could not hold back his curiosity and went to another office on the top floor. Ther

    Evelyn was worried about this, but Rowan did not take it seriously as he said, “This small amount of snow is nothing.”Evelyn was extremely worried. The temperature was so low now, so the road must be icy. The snow was too heavy and would block his sight. Evelyn did not want him to be in any danger, so she suggested in a low voice, “It’s better if you don’t go back.”Rowan looked at her in surprise and smiled as he asked, “Where will I stay if I don’t go back? Do you want me to stay in the car all night?”Evelyn shook her head and said, “Y-You can go home with me.”She had just taken the initiative to invite a man to spend the night at her home. It was truly embarrassing for a shy girl like Evelyn to say these words, but she was willing to do so for his safety.“My mother should be asleep now, and she wakes up later in the morning. We can just leave before she wakes up in the morning.”She explained with a red face, “Don’t misunderstand me. I just don’t want you to be in danger o

    She held her cell phone and said hurriedly, “I’ll go down right now.”She ended the call and hurriedly put on her down jacket. She was wearing warm and soft polar fleece home clothes. She did not have time to change, so she simply put on a down jacket and went out. She opened the door and walked out stealthily, out of fear that she would wake Helena up, and Helena would find out that she was going down to meet Rowan in the middle of the night. Helena would surely think that this kind of behavior was inappropriate. When passing by the living room, Evelyn glanced in the direction of Helena’s bedroom. The lights had been turned off, so she was probably asleep. Helena’s physical condition was not as good as it was before the surgery. After all, she was getting older and had undergone craniotomy, which was a major surgery, so she could not keep up mentally and physically. She would go to bed very early at night and wake up late in the morning.After Evelyn left the house quietly, sh

    Cassie’s expression turned ugly when she heard Helena’s words. She was shocked and humiliated as she asked in disbelief, “Is it Rowan Pierce?”Cassie knew that it was the Pierces and Matons who were maliciously targeting the Sullivans. Julian and Nora had just gotten married, and it was said that Julian loved Nora very much, so it could not be Julian.As the person in charge of the Pierces, Ryan was a married man as well, and the couple usually kept a low profile and rarely displayed their affection. However, Cassie heard that Ryan’s wife had just given birth to a son, and it was widely known that Ryan was a family man now.Rowan was the only single man, so could it be Rowan?Cassie recalled the scene when she saw Rowan shopping with them in the mall that day. At the time, she wondered why Rowan would be willing to go shopping with them, but now, it seemed that he was there for Evelyn’s sake. Cassie was so stunned when she thought of this that she felt like she would choke on a m

    In the end, Natalie was pushed to a dead end and had no choice but to hold a press conference in a hurry. During the press conference, she cried and apologized for the plagiarism and the fact that she had looked for someone to draw a design for her, and announced that she would be quitting the design world.However, few people accepted her apology or showed sympathy for her even though she apologized and admitted her mistakes. The general public opinion was still scolding her in various ways, so Barry simply drove Natalie home and asked her to stay at home to avoid the limelight. One night after Natalie’s incident, Evelyn was accompanying Helena on a stroll in the neighborhood when they ran into Cassie.Natalie’s life had been completely gloomy and dark in the past few days, but Evelyn’s life was stable and practical.Rowan insisted on picked her up from work every morning. If Rowan was at the company at noon, the two would have lunch together. Considering that Helena would be at

    Natalie never expected that Rowan would play these dirty tricks behind her back. She did not know that Rowan was best at these tricks. She had cried and begged Barry to plead for mercy on her behalf, but when Barry came back, he told her that there was no room for redemption. She was desperate and was filled with hatred and resentment. Over the years, she had tried every means possible to trample all over Evelyn, but in the end, she was the one who suffered the most and could not turn her life around. Natalie clenched her teeth angrily in hatred as she dug her nails into her palms and tried to calm her emotions. So what if her career in design was ruined? She never truly liked this industry anyway. She had only learned it at the beginning in order to crush Evelyn. She could still do other things even if she did not do design, right? There were so many different industries in this world, so she did not have to make a living in jewelry design. Besides, she was a Stewart, so s

    She laughed loudly when she was happy, shed tears when she was sad, never hid her true self, and was a frank and sincere person. Why wouldn’t men like such a girl?Rowan laughed. He did not mean to slander Selena; he was simply analyzing Selena’s current situation from his perspective as a man. Selena might indeed be a good girl in Evelyn’s eyes. After all, Evelyn was a woman who only cared about Selena’s personality, but men paid more attention to a woman’s temperament and charm sometimes. Everyone naturally had their own preferences. For example, Rowan preferred someone simple like Evelyn, whereas some men might prefer someone with a stronger personality like Selena. Evelyn had to call Charles after she could not reach Selena. “Charles, is Selena home? I can’t seem to reach her on her cell phone.”Charles frowned when he heard Evelyn’s words. “She’s not back yet. You can’t reach her on her cell phone?”“I can’t. I tried calling her several times, but her cell phone is switch

    He was wrong. He was really wrong. He treated the person he wanted to protect so coldly and harshly. It seemed that he had not been in a relationship for too long that he had forgotten how to love. Fortunately, it only took him this once to understand the crux of his problem. Therefore, he stroked her cheek gently and reassured her in a deep voice, “It won’t happen again.”Evelyn chose to smile slightly in relief in response to his apology and assurance.When two people are together, they need to understand and accommodate each other in terms of personality, temperament, and living habits. Since they had only officially been together for a day, this was even more essential for them. As he said, he was an ordinary man, and she was an ordinary woman. Their relationship was that of an ordinary couple, so it was normal for them to quarrel, have disagreements, and lose their temper. Evelyn felt that there was nothing that could not be solved as long as it did not involve principles

    “Getting dinner!” Rowan announced angrily, then he placed her in the passenger seat, got into the car, and drove away. Evelyn had no other objections since they were going to eat. Anyway, she had already called Helena earlier to tell her that she would not be going back for dinner tonight as she would be having dinner with Selena. Not long after the two had gotten into the car and driven out, Selena called and asked Evelyn worriedly, “Evelyn, how did it go? Did you manage to coax him yet?”As Rowan was sitting next to her, Evelyn could not answer whether she had managed to coax him. Therefore, she hesitated without saying anything.When Selena heard this, she knew that they must not have reconciled yet, so she gave her advice on the other end of the line. “It’s fine. There’s no man that can’t be coaxed. Just one kiss will do. If he still can’t be coaxed, give him two kisses. If that doesn’t work, just kiss him all over until he’s no longer angry!”Selena’s voice was loud enough,

    Selena’s tone was full of annoyance as she said, “I initially thought of giving Evelyn a surprise, but it turned out to be a shock!”Selena had good intentions as well; she just wanted to introduce the most handsome, stylish, and reliable man that she knew to Evelyn, but it turned out to be self-defeating. As for Shane, who was to be introduced to Evelyn, he simply stood there leisurely the whole time, looking at the three of them as if he was watching a good show. He watched as they got jealous, explained themselves, and felt depressed. Even though both Evelyn and Selena had explained the whole story entirely, Rowan still felt angry and annoyed.After glaring angrily at Evelyn, he simply turned around and walked away.Evelyn and Selena could only exchange glances as they were at a loss for what to do.In the end, Evelyn said to Selena helplessly, “I’ll go and see how he’s doing. You two can enjoy dinner together. I’m sorry.”Evelyn chose to pay attention to Rowan this time an
