"..." The dishes from Royal Chef are exquisite. Marianne’s cooking is delicious too, but there's still a gap compared to the restaurant. Ever since I tasted the chef's creations, I can't stop thinking about them. I totally understand foodies who travel far and wide for a good meal.If I had known Royal Chef’s chef was coming to town, how could I possibly refuse?For the sake of good food, I backtracked, "You need energy from food to diet effectively.""It's good that Ms. Middleton has such insight.""..." Was he complimenting me or mocking me?Never mind, as long as I get to eat delicious food, I'll be the bigger person and not quibble!With good food as motivation, I did the stretches very seriously.After finishing the stretches, I was about to go home to shower and get ready when Luke tossed me the jacket hanging on the treadmill. "Put this on, be careful not to catch a cold.""Thank you, Mr. Walker. I'll wash it and return it to you."Luke's clothes had his unique faint co

At noon, Luke and I arrived at the restaurant where the Royal Chef's head chef was located.The restaurant was not crowded. Following the waiter's lead, we went to the leftmost private room on the second floor.Luke had called ahead, so as soon as we sat down, the dishes started arriving one after another.Before coming, I had asked Luke's permission to contact Wendy.Wendy also had a soft spot for Royal Chef's cuisine. When she learned she could taste the chef's specialties in Johnsonville, she was thrilled.I sent the restaurant's address to her phone."Sweetie, I'm sorry to tell you that I have work to deal with and won't be able to enjoy this feast," Wendy replied.Wendy switched emotions effortlessly. She said pitifully, "Heaven must be testing me with great responsibility, first by tormenting my spirit and exhausting my body. I'll endure!"If Wendy had said this before joining the family business, I would have bantered with her. Now, with her fighting alone, I felt both w

I didn't react, so he bent down.A handsome face suddenly appeared in front of me, startling me. I quickly leaned back."Did I scare you?" Luke asked, releasing his hand from my shoulder."N-no, not at all," I stammered.Luke's eyes held a hint of amusement. Being so close, I could feel his breath on my cheek, causing my face to flush uncontrollably. Unable to meet his gaze, I lowered my eyes, glancing around nervously."Let's get out of the car," he said."Oh, right."I hastily agreed, clumsily getting out of the car.In my haste, I nearly hit the door frame. Luke quickly put his hand in front of my forehead, preventing me from making intimate contact with the car door.His palm was burning hot. It felt like I'd been scalded, and my face grew even redder. "Thank you, Mr. Walker."Luke said nothing, withdrawing his hand and walking towards the restaurant.His movements were graceful. What just happened seemed like a routine gentlemanly gesture for him, but it sent ripples th

Previously, when shopping with Wendy, I had visited the Arc'teryx counter and experienced their service. I didn't disappoint their enthusiasm, quickly selecting two sets of clothes and shoes."Please wrap these up for me.""Miss, don't you want to try them on?"From entering the store to selecting the clothes and shoes, I had taken only a few minutes. My swift and decisive actions left the sales assistant at a loss. She glanced at Luke, who was sitting on a sofa, flipping through a magazine.Luke looked up. "The same size in sportswear should be a bit larger than your regular clothes. You might want to try them on.""Miss, your boyfriend is right. You need to try clothes on to know if they fit properly.""He's not my—""This white sports outfit looks nice," Luke said, standing up and pointing to an outfit on the display rack."Sir, you have a good eye. Your girlfriend has fair skin, and this simple, elegant sports outfit would suit her very well."I tried several times to expl

The morning exercise left me energetic all day, but when I went to bed, the after-effects of the workout began to show.I moved my slightly sore legs, thinking it would be better after sleep.In the quiet of the night, senses become sharper than during the day. Tossing and turning, unable to sleep, I got up and went downstairs.When I picked up the dog from Luke's place, he gave me a massage gun, saying it could relieve leg soreness.I opened the massage gun's packaging and found the instructions."Ouch!" I tried it according to the manual, but the pain made me wince.I must be using it wrong; it hurt even more than before.I picked up the manual again, and a note fell out: "Keep at it, you'll have a different experience."The handwriting was sharp and powerful – Luke's handwriting.He really thinks of everything!After persisting for a while, the pain gradually eased. I found it amazing.After using the massage gun, I tried to relax my legs with my unprofessional technique.

Joey's secret...While making coffee, I speculated about what kind of secret Stephen was referring to.By the time I brought the coffee to Luke's office, Stephen had already left."Mr. York left?"They finished talking so quickly?"She's not my responsibility. I don't need to do things I don't want to do for her sake."In other words, Luke had refused Stephen's request.Joey's behavior was outrageous, and I had a very poor impression of her. I wouldn't say a word about Luke not visiting her in the hospital.I put the coffee on Luke's desk. "Stephen, who's invincible in court, has actually stumbled over Joey.""That invincibility is just a shell he wears. After countless battles, that shell isn't as hard as it once was."I didn't quite understand Luke's words and didn't ask further. I left the office.At lunch, I received a call from Stephen. He asked to meet me at the cafe downstairs.I knew why he wanted to see me and was reluctant. But he had helped me win a lawsuit befor

"She just wants to see Mr. Walker once.""And then what?" If she succeeds in seeing Luke this time, there will be a next time. "She's an adult and needs to take responsibility for her actions. We can't force Luke to do something he doesn't want to do because of her whims. Mr. York, you're close to Mr. Walker and know his family situation better than I do. If Ms. Parker can completely distance herself from Mr. Walker this time, it would be a safeguard for her future personal safety."Stephen remained silent."I'll keep Ms. Parker's mental illness a secret."After finishing my coffee, I told Stephen I was leaving."I'm glad you could say that."Not understanding his words, I paused and looked at Stephen.Stephen's lips twitched slightly. "You can go now. I'll sit here a bit longer."Before leaving Starbucks, I ordered a set meal for him....After that day, Joey was forcibly taken to surgery. When she woke up, she lay in bed, raging at Stephen and Annette.Stephen asked Annett

For Luke, this was a thorny issue. Visiting Joey would encourage her bad behavior, but not seeing her might push her towards Felfast.Jon's talent was unparalleled. If he joined Felfast, Hanque's future would look bleak.Luke remained silent for a long time, then said, "No one has asked for Jon's opinion.""Would Jon be able to express his own opinion?"Jon's situation was special. Except for AI, he couldn't communicate normally with others.Joey was Jon's guardian and could decide who he cooperated with."One should always have some hope."Luke's words were partly to comfort me. I wanted to ask if he had decided not to see Joey, but feared adding to his pressure."Whatever decision Mr. Walker makes, I'll firmly support you!""Does your statement have an expiration date?" Luke looked up, the coldness in his eyes gradually dissipating."For now, no. As for the future, I can't be certain yet."At least during my time as his assistant, these words would remain valid!"I'll wor
