last update Last Updated: 2023-06-29 21:00:03
Finally, as Nancy said, Primrose and Joel had dinner together in a luxurious five-star restaurant, surrounded by warm golden candles. The scene is so romantic that there are a few bright red rose petals on the table, and the soft violin sound resounds around, making Primrose suddenly feel as if she and Joel are a couple in love.

Primrose was taken aback by this sudden thought, biting the fork in her hand.

"What's wrong? Isn't the food here delicious?"

Joel saw Primrose on the opposite side in a daze, handed her a plate of pre-cut steak, and asked softly. The overly flattering sound made Primrose shake her head, dispelling her embarrassment by eating a piece of beef that had been cut into small pieces. How can it not be delicious? The price of each dish in this restaurant is very expensive; she is "indirectly" eating those US dollars. Of course, they must be fine food.

"How old are you? Why aren't you so careful when eating?"

While Primrose wasn't paying attention, there was a small str

    "Are you going to meet with a date via a dating service again?"Nancy's situation is not much different from Primrose's. Although the two of them are young, they are both urged to get married by their parents, who are anxious to find them a decent man. From the beginning of the year until now, I don't know how many times Nancy has been forced to see her eyes."Yes, this time I heard that the other person has a very rich family, but because of his passion without inheriting a fortune, he is a doctor."Nancy is a girl who doesn't want to get married too soon, and she obviously feels it's pointless to force herself to be with a man at such a young age. There are so many men in this world, and she wants to joke with them first."Do you need me to find someone to play your current boyfriend?"In the past, there was a subject who watched because he loved Nancy so much from the moment he saw her appear, but hurriedly confessed and expressed his desire to quickly marry her.

    "Sister-in-law, there is a very beautiful flower garden here with a lot of expensive flowers; do you want to go see them with me?"Because Joel's mother loves flowers, there is a large greenhouse in the house just to grow colorful flowers, always with plenty of light. Primrose obviously didn't expect Ava to be so close to her, but she nevertheless nodded, wanting to see what Ava really wanted to do.When she stood up, Joel gently took her hand as if to advise her, but Primrose just nodded at him reassuringly. She was also curious to know why her cousin Joel seemed to hate her after meeting her for the first time."How did you seduce my brother to marry you?"Just stopping by the greenhouse flower garden, seeing no one around, Ava smiled faintly, crossed her arms, and looked at Primrose with disdain, as if Primrose were a woman of tricks."What are you saying? He is my fiancé, and sooner or later I will get married. What do I have to do to find ways to seduce him? Do I look so free?"Th

    Primrose had just picked a good romantic movie when Joel finished baking pizza and sat next to her to watch the movie together. Primrose pretended not to see the other person sitting casually close to her, also trying to ignore his warm breath as if it were not on her neck."Wait a minute before eating; it's still hot."Joel reminded her softly, taking a piece of pizza carefully, lining it with paper so that Primrose wouldn't burn it, and handing it to her with great care and kindness. Primrose cleared her throat, took a slice of pizza, and put it in her mouth. It was delicious, baked in just the right amount of time. It seems that Joel is not to the point of being a big company boss who doesn't know how to cook and only knows how to command the maids. Primrose thought, then continued to look at the TV screen. She chose a romantic movie that has been popular recently; the main character looks very good with her aesthetic gout, especially since the main character is very handsome. "H

    Primrose tried to calm herself down so she wouldn't think about Joel anymore. She took off her clothes and flushed, lying down in the large bathtub. The warm steam hovering around her made her mind gradually relax, and she freely enjoyed this relaxing feeling. Primrose finally regained her focus and washed clean, until she was wrapped in a long towel and wanted to put on clothes when she realized they were very important.She forgot to take her clothes into the bathroom. Primrose mentally rubbed her head, silently admiring that she was really so mesmerized by the beauty that made her slow thinking become so absent-minded. After taking a deep breath, she opened the bathroom door slightly, slowly peering out to see if Joel had returned to his room. "Primrose, are you looking for this?" From the moment Joel laid down on the bed, he got up, got bored, walked around Primrose's bedroom, and came across her clothes neatly arranged on the table. Joel smiled and sat down on the chair next

    The atmosphere suddenly turned extremely awkward. Joel also had to clench his fist to try to stay calm.He felt himself to be someone who was always cool in any situation, but right now, he was really angry.This afternoon, when he saw Primrose saying he didn't need me to pick him up, laughing, and going with another man, he tried to be patient. After all, this is her colleague-and-friend relationship; he has no right to interfere with or forbid her from making friends.After returning home, he also impatiently sat on the sofa, waiting for Primrose. When he received a text message telling her where she was, he tried to wait two more hours before driving to pick up Primrose, allowing his anger to subside before he came to find her.However, when he arrived, he saw the person who was considered a "colleague" leaning close to her, looking at her with passionate eyes, and then confessing to her sweetly. If he didn't make it in time, what would Primrose's answer be?On the one hand, the hus

    Primrose didn't want to take her anger out on Devis. Anyway, his feelings for her are very sincere; moreover, people can't control their own hearts, and she doesn't want to raise her voice at him."If you two have an argument because of me, I can help you explain it to your husband." Devis added that after yesterday, he was so guilty that now he can't even look Primrose in the eye. After one day, his words yesterday became very ridiculous. "It's okay; our relationship is still good. We're going to have dinner together at a restaurant tonight."Primrose lied to reassure Devis, who then left with a little peace of mind. "So Devis still feels guilty about it?" As soon as Devis left, Nancy nudged Primrose on the shoulder and went with her to the company cafeteria. Primrose spoke briefly of her conversation with Devis, then patted her head wearily."So, did Joel say anything yesterday?" Nancy was sitting next to Primrose, so it was clear how angry Joel was to see Devis so close to P

    The car stopped in front of the door, and Primrose was still a considerate cousin, helping Winnie with her luggage. Winnie looked at the house, which was both magnificent and sumptuous, and was constantly admiring and amused, seemingly very excited about it. She couldn't help but look around, sometimes surprised to admire, Primrose also casually introduced the rooms in the house to her."This is your room. My room is opposite, your brother-in-law's room is at the end of the corridor; if you need anything, just call me."Primrose pointed to each room and spoke. Obviously, the fact that the husband and wife are in different rooms is very unusual, but now that she is angry with Joel, it is a concession to talk to him, not wanting to be afraid of Winnie's misunderstanding but to come and live with Joel. So, when Winnie was surprised to ask why she and Joel slept in different rooms, Primrose just casually said the two's living hours were different and they were afraid of affecting each oth

    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.

    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.

    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
