The next morning, Primrose still followed the old routine of going to work very early. Although Joel tried to wake up earlier than usual, she had left the house long ago. He clutched his head in anguish, evidently having no choice but to endure Primrose's anger to calm itself.As for Winnie, he planned to speak to Primrose tonight in front of her to see if she could still object.Joel on the other side is very depressed because of Primrose's separation, while Primrose is very serene and loves life. She was in a relatively good mood this morning when she arrived at the company, so she went to a nearby cafe to buy a cup of cappuccino, making it convenient to buy another cup for Nancy. The weather is cool and fresh, a warm cup of cappuccino is very suitable to enjoy.At lunchtime, before Primrose could ask Nancy to go with her, her phone rang from her bag."Mom, what's wrong?"Primrose pressed listening, tone relaxed. Her mother seemed to be outside gathering with her friends, and someti
Joel captured vague displeasure on his face. At this time, five people had entered Anna's house, and July was happily chatting with Anna. Joel's eyes fell on the man in the gray T-shirt standing next to Anna, guessing that maybe it was Primrose's close neighbor as a child."Primrose, long time no see. How are you these days?"While Joel was still quietly assessing the strange man, Anna spoke softly to Primrose."Still fine. I haven't been to your house for a long time, but you are still so young and beautiful, and your skin is still shiny."Primrose smiled and continued talking, her soft voice so pleasing to Anna. She looked at her son, Lay, who was standing beside her, and suddenly sighed."Lay, you didn't say hello to Primrose, did you? You two were very close before, why have you been so cold to her after a few years?"Anna is a generous and pleasant woman, and the atmosphere briefly becomes harmonious when Primrose and Lay begin to reminisce about the past when they were still chi
Moreover, he is not only handsome but also extremely rich. In the future, just having a woman by his side means that Winnie not only doesn't have to worry about the upcoming workplace but can also enjoy the feeling of being rich and always having a maid to serve. As soon as this thought came, Winnie couldn't hold back any more of Joel's desire to sleep."Joel, if Primrose knew that you at home were so seduced by me, would you still be able to safely advise me like before?"Winnie suddenly whispered and then sneered, leaning down to push her hair to the side and approaching Joel to unbutton his shirt."What are you doing? Are you crazy? Do you know what stupid thing you're doing?"Joel was no longer so awake, but he could still feel Winnie's dirty arm that had just unbuttoned one of his shirt buttons and was inclined to continue undoing it. The alcohol vapor in his body made him dizzy and tired, but he still had the strength to get away from Winnie's hand and sit up angrily."I know, I
Each of Joel's small kisses stopped on Primrose's slender shoulder and slowly slid up to his lips, the warm feeling of his lips numbing Primrose's whole body. Joel kissed her very gently and patiently, gently biting her lips, causing Primrose's reason to gradually melt and her vision to gradually become blurred. In her trance, she heard Joel's low, sexy voice."Getting used to the tempo? Now I will start punishing you."After that sentence, Joel deepened the kiss, making Primrose shiver, his breathing gradually becoming faster. Before Joel's stormy attack, Primrose's lips burned hot, and his face gradually turned red.For a moment, she even assumed that all of Joel's fatigue from resting his head on her shoulder was a pretense."Primrose, focus a little, put your tongue out."A disgruntled Joel bit Primrose's lip lightly, making her helpless to open her mouth slightly. Joel now took the opportunity to put his tongue in her mouth and entangle her tongue continuously, gradually stealing
That afternoon, as usual, Joel came to pick Primrose up from work. Primrose was still shy because of Nancy's jokes in the morning, so she did not dare to look directly at Joel, always avoiding his eyes."Didn't you promise yesterday that you wouldn't keep me at a distance from you anymore? Is punishment not enough for you?"Joel's hand is on the steering wheel, lightly clenched, and his calm voice can't be heard clearly. His eyebrows rose slightly, causing Primrose to feel invisible pressure again.She can claim that if she says something wrong, Joel must have the power to make her regret it."No, it's because I'm not feeling well today, feeling a bit tired."Primrose rested her head on the recliner and closed her eyes to rest. Joel also suddenly realized that Primrose had only slept for a few short hours yesterday because of him, so he did not continue to tease her.Primrose just pretended to be sleepy so she wouldn't have to continue listening to Joel's jokes, but the cool weather o
Joel then did not want to continue teasing Primrose, fearing she would run away because of her shyness. He leisurely washed the dishes and then went up to his room, unexpectedly bumping into Primrose, who was opening the door and running out."I'm going to get a drink."Primrose swallowed and said a word, suddenly feeling bitter and dry. Joel nodded and then politely gave way, and Primrose bowed his head to continue."I'm not a scoundrel, you don't need to be afraid."Joel mutters, suddenly somewhat melancholy. Obviously, he had already scared Primrose away.Primrose, after going down to the kitchen, took a large sip of water to calm down. The situation had become more and more unbalanced lately, and she felt warier and warier than Joel. Brought an unwelcome mood into this marriage that began, and did not intend to be serious with Joel, however, Primrose gradually lost her original steadfastness.She needs time to adapt to such a big change.Thinking about doing it, after returning to
Primrose is also very relaxed, and the people next to him can't talk. When they gather, the most often mentioned topics are interesting stories about the lives of the people around them."Did you know about Taylor yet?"A friend opened the door first, successfully sending the crowd into a frenzy to continue."What's up? I heard before that she married a rich but elderly man who wears designer clothes every day and constantly brags about the expensive price of those clothes in front of others.""Yes, I also met her before; she was asking her husband to buy a precious diamond ring, and I despised having no one to buy one."Everyone quickly stirred, and the person who started this story also mysteriously laughed."I heard that her husband is in love with a hot model who is famous nearby; yesterday, Taylor also made a fuss because her husband did not come home at night, went to the other model's house to sleep, and made a fuss. Now everyone laughs at her because she was greedy for money a
The next morning, Joel was still the one who went to the kitchen to prepare breakfast, and when Primrose woke up, he was not too surprised. She calmly sat across from Joel and ate breakfast, drank all the prepared orange juice, and then got into Joel's car to drive him to work. Everything is still going as usual, and fortunately today Joel is no longer joking, so the atmosphere between the two is still relatively good.The two are also very good, not to mention that Primrose went to the bar and came home late yesterday."We're here, Primrose. In the afternoon, after work, call me."Joel helped Primrose unbuckle her seat belt, then got out of the car and opened the door for her, conveniently holding Primrose in his lap. Primrose was no longer shy. She comfortably stretched out her arms to hug him and then turned to work.Primrose and Nancy's state at the bar yesterday was still relatively good, so the people were still full of energy for the company. However, during the lunch break, Na
In the familiar tone and warmth that radiated from Joel's hands, Primrose quietly watched the video being played on the large screen. It was a video of her and Joel's love story, starting from the day they got married after their crazy first encounter.Primrose didn't know how Joel had compiled and edited them into this video, but everything felt incredibly genuine. From their initial excitement and awkwardness on their wedding day to the gentle kiss they shared, it all felt real.The video shifted as the two of them moved in together. Primrose saw herself and Joel sitting at the same dinner table; there was no communication between them, not even a glance exchanged. It was a bit amusing.Throughout, Joel kept his head tilted, watching Primrose closely and observing every expression on her face. He witnessed Primrose's emotions as she looked back on their past. By this point, the video continued playing, showcasing the gradual bonding between Joel and Primrose. Amid the soothing piano
Time passed calmly in the afternoon; at least while working, Joel didn't play any mischievous tricks or surprise Primrose with sudden kisses. She was comfortable and didn't need to be cautious anymore. She spent the afternoon leisurely, wearing AirPods and watching TV shows, and then returned home with Joel.Initially, Primrose had some difficulty adjusting to this unusually comfortable life, but it quickly became a habit. She was entirely satisfied with her current job and Joel's attentive care for her.After returning from the company, instead of cooking as usual, Joel ruffled Primrose's hair and mentioned that they would dine out tonight. Occasionally, Joel would book a table at some famous restaurant for dinner, so Primrose didn't question it. She obediently went upstairs to freshen up and change.When she emerged in an intricately designed white dress, Primrose slowly smoothed her hair and smiled sweetly at Joel."How do I look? Do I resemble the most beautiful woman in the world
Since boarding the plane, Primrose has remained cautious of Joel as usual, maintaining an extremely cold and distant attitude and not uttering a word to him. Joel had grown accustomed to the silence and indifference, so he didn't dare disturb her, sitting up straight with his back against the seat.After a while, Primrose began to feel drowsy and quickly leaned back against the airplane seat, falling asleep. Joel made sure to carefully place a thin blanket over her to keep her warm before closing his eyes to rest as well. Waking up early had left their bodies tired and sleepy.A few hours later, as Joel drifted into sleep, he felt a slight weight on his shoulder and a sweet fragrance wafting around his nose. He turned his head to look, and his gaze became even more tender as he saw that Primrose had rested her head on his shoulder and was sound asleep.Her smooth white face had a faint rosy hue, her nose gently rising and falling with each breath, and her eyes were closed beautifully.
When Primrose spotted Nancy ahead, she let out a relieved breath, enthusiastically skipping over to grab Nancy's hand. Nancy was somewhat surprised by Primrose's overly excited reaction, staring at her for a moment to search for any unusual expressions. Unable to resist, she asked,"Why are you suddenly so happy to see me? It's quite rare."Hearing this somewhat teasing remark that caught her off guard, Primrose pretended not to understand and tugged Nancy along ahead. Of course, she couldn't share the recent events with Nancy; otherwise, Nancy would offer advice that wasn't really suitable for their age and would only make Primrose more embarrassed when facing Joel.The four of them arrived at the restaurant together, falling into the habit of couples sitting side by side. Primrose was still sulking about the earlier incident with Joel, so when he pulled out a chair for her, she merely let out a cold huff before sitting down slowly, intentionally avoiding looking at Joel even once. J
Joel walked quietly, and Primrose followed, leaning her head against Joel's broad shoulder. Neither of them spoke, but both could vaguely sense the gentle heartbeat of the other.A sweet, elusive sensation enveloped the space, making the sun-drenched journey feel warmer and gentler.By the time Joel carried Primrose back to the hotel, she still remained in a dreamy state, not fully escaping that unfamiliar emotion. Joel carefully carried Primrose into the bathroom and helped her wash her feet. The cool water slowly awakened Primrose as it trickled down. She lifted her head to look at Joel, their gazes meeting tenderly, filled with unexplainable emotions."Take a shower, sweetie. I'll wait for you."Joel lightly kissed Primrose's forehead and left. She mechanically picked up her clothes and entered the bathroom. The warm water enveloped her, dissipating the haziness within her, yet Primrose remained absentminded, thinking about the warm words Joel had spoken earlier.The sincerity of h
Upon returning to the hotel, the first thing Primrose did was slump onto the large bed, sighing continuously."If I had known that going out would make me this tired, I wouldn't have invited everyone for a cruise."After a few hours on the cruise ship and a lunch break earlier, Primrose's energy had been depleted, leaving her too tired to even sit up. Joel smiled, gently using a makeup remover pad to clean Primrose's face and remove her makeup carefully, then affectionately wiping her nose with a tissue."Alright, stop complaining. Change your clothes and take a nap. We'll go for a beach walk this afternoon.""If you're really exhausted, I don't mind helping you change clothes."Joel raised an eyebrow and winked mischievously, successfully making Primrose slightly flustered as she sat up, rushing to the bathroom with her clothes. She quickly changed into a comfortable set of pajamas and once again lay down on the bed, feeling the softness of the mattress and blankets."Can I sleep at
In the days after returning to work, Primrose had a lot of free time and planned the upcoming trip with Nancy for the two of them and their boyfriends. Although it had been mentioned before, and furthermore, Brian and Joel had never had an official meeting, Primrose and Nancy were both eager to push for this trip.Regarding the planning, since Primrose was currently the freest person in the company, she did most of the work. This ranged from choosing suitable places to visit to selecting a hotel. Concerning Primrose's choices, the others had no objections, so on a beautiful weekend morning, all four of them set off to Country A together.Joel carried luggage for both Primrose and quietly followed behind, while Primrose cheerfully carried her handbag ahead. She excitedly held Nancy's hand, who was being helped with her suitcase by Brian, strolling and enjoying the city's scenery.The two men glanced at each other and chuckled softly, suddenly feeling camaraderie.After arriving at the
When Primrose woke up for the second time, it was already quite late. She blinked a few times to fully wake up, then looked around the room. Perhaps by this time, Joel was in the kitchen cooking, so she also got up leisurely, folded the blanket, and went to the bathroom to brush her teeth. After that, Primrose put on her pajamas and went downstairs to find Joel yawning and tousling her slightly messy hair."Awake now, sweetie? Did you sleep well?"Since he had heard the faint footsteps from the stairs, Joel knew that Primrose was awake. He took off his apron and hung them neatly, then approached to help Primrose adjust her slightly messy hair before pulling out a chair for her to sit at the dining table."Are you ready for breakfast? I'll get it for you."Primrose was still not fully awake from her dream, her gaze flickering lazily. Water droplets from washing her face still glistened on her fair complexion, but Joel carefully wiped them away before bringing her breakfast.As requeste
Indeed, the next day, Primrose's condition had improved significantly, and her temperature had returned to normal. When she woke up, she mentioned to Joel that she wanted to go to the company, but it was evident that Joel didn't agree.Despite that, Primrose was still feeling weak, so she decided to rest for another day to fully recover. Furthermore, the company was under Joel's ownership now, so she didn't need to exert herself unnecessarily.Finally, Primrose lay on the bed, casting a frustrated and resigned glance at Joel, leaving him feeling somewhat bewildered about how to respond. After a momentary internal struggle, Joel gently stroked her soft hair, now lightly scented with the fragrance of lavender."Alright, fine. I'm concerned about you, so I don't want you to go to the company and tire yourself out. It's only seven in the morning, get some more sleep."Since her request had been denied, Primrose didn't want to show a favorable expression towards Joel, so she turned her hea
