Perhaps it was because, in front of Summer, he could not utter those beautiful words; he only wanted to express the most genuine and sincere emotions with the most plain words."Summer, actually, I could say a lot of sweet words, a lot of romantic words, but I feel like they're all just playing to the crowd," he said. His flowery words were for show. However, he just wanted to be genuine.Despite feeling that way, she still questioned his sincerity. Joe felt a bit disheartened. Was he really so incompetent that he could not win over the woman he wanted?"Alright."Suddenly, Summer spoke a single word.Joe's eyes, which had just lowered, shot back up, staring at her without blinking."I understand. But I feel like I need some time to calm down and think. Can you give me some time?""How long do you need?""Three days."Joe did not hesitate. "Okay. I'll wait for your answer in three days."Summer suddenly felt the weight in her heart lift. She breathed a sigh of relief.He was

Summer glanced at the staircase.Shawn and Gale had said they were taking the kids to wash up and sleep, but they had not returned for quite a while now, and there was no sign of them anywhere.She figured that they would not show up as long as she and Joe did not leave. Those who knew, knew. This was their way of giving space to her and Joe, letting them sort things out on their own!At this point, even best friends were not entirely reliable anymore."Gale already has two kids, and you're still single. Need some encouragement? Hm?" Joe leaned in close to her ear, whispering.Usually, Summer would have shot him a fierce glare and snapped back at him. However, she was quiet and docile.She even could not help but wonder if having children and a family would make her gentler.Suddenly, she was startled by her thoughts. She snapped out of it. What was she thinking?Seeing her being so obedient melted Joe's heart.The usually fierce and bold little wildcat had suddenly turned into

She had a hunch about where he had gone.Upon hearing this, Joshua exclaimed, "Oh, I see, you wanted Uncle Joe to come in, but you were too embarrassed to do it yourselves! Now that I've done it, you're blaming me! Is there any justice in this world?"Gale cleared her throat and withdrew her hand, saying, "No blame to be had. You did great! Really great! Absolutely fantastic!""Exactly." Joshua loved to be praised. "I couldn't let Uncle Joe stand out there alone, in the cold wind, worrying and fretting..."Gale asked, surprised, "I didn't expect that you and Joe were so close.""That's right, you women wouldn't understand the friendship between us men!""When did you and Joe become friends? I'm curious."Gale was puzzled.Since Joshua arrived in Sea City, she had not noticed him interacting much with Joe. Also, at the time, Joshua's identity had not been revealed, so he and Joe did not seem very close.Shawn said with a deep smile, "Their friendship was established when you we

As she spoke, her voice grew quieter, but she looked more excited.Shawn made sense! What if, on the way or at the entrance of Summer's apartment, they suddenly felt a spark, a sudden blaze of passion? It was entirely possible! Calling now would ruin the mood."You're right." Gale nodded repeatedly, like a chicken pecking at grains. "I'll wait until tomorrow to ask Summer in person!""That's my guess. Who knows, maybe Summer is waiting for you to call. You girls always have a lot to say, right?""No rush, no rush. There's no hurry."Gale thought Summer might be shy and reluctant to agree to Joe at Temperley Hall, so she needed three days to consider. Now that they were both gone, what else was there to consider? They were together.Gale could not help but say, "If they become a couple... oh... the playboy suddenly becomes a devoted boyfriend. Summer, the fierce and decisive career woman, suddenly turns into a delicate and gentle girl."Besides, their foundation is rather solid.

Gale racked her brains, guessing, "A woman. So, is she an old flame? First love? Lost love?""How would I know how Joe defines her?" Gale silently noted that she must remind Summer tomorrow to go find Joe and clarify things. Joe must not have any lingering feelings for a former lover."Will this affect them being together?" Gale asked."No, it won't. These are all things from many years ago. At that time, Joe was still in college."Oh. So long ago. She thought it was something else entirely. Who, in their youthful days, did not have some beautiful memories of first love or unforgettable feelings?Gale felt happy."All sorted, they must move fast to be together, lock it in. I'll just wait peacefully for the wedding!" Gale said.Suddenly, she remembered something and looked up at Shawn. "Oh, I ran into Aurum and Ivy at the company gate today. Actually, I think they have something going on too. They are quite well suited for each other!"Shawn's large hand landed on the back of

Her voice became softer and softer, but her expression grew more excited.Shawn gently touched her long hair, accompanied by his thoughtful words. "Gale, your intentions are good. However, everyone has their own journey. Some bitterness must be tasted to be understood, and some detours must be taken to reach the destination."In life, whether in relationships or careers, there are no shortcuts. The destination one wants to reach requires one's own effort and exploration.Shawn and Gale had completely opposite views. However, their thoughts did not clash; instead, they respectfully heard each other out and understood each other.As the night deepened, Shawn's magnetic voice had a soothing effect on her. No matter what he said, Gale felt inclined to nod in agreement."You make sense, but I still want to try to help them avoid as many detours and pitfalls as possible, to find happiness a little earlier and a little easier.""Right, so we can offer advice and suggestions, but we can'

The morning sun rose, casting its radiance on the ground with a refreshing breeze blowing. Autumn had arrived, and there was still a hint of chill in the air. The servants were sweeping the fallen leaves, the gardeners were tending to the flower beds, and the kitchen was preparing breakfast. Everything was in order as usual.Suddenly, a car sped in. Then another car arrived, followed by yet another. Three cars in total, all parked neatly at the entrance of Temperley Hall. The housekeeper was taken aback. Who could be arriving like this? What was going on?Not until he saw who got out of the three cars did the housekeeper, with no time to think, hurriedly greet them!"Mr. Wood, Mr. Warm, Ms. Yarn, welcome, please come in, what a surprise to have all three of you here all of a sudden!" The housekeeper greeted them with a smile, politely addressing them.He thought these three elders had planned to come together.Lucas looked at Peter. "Hey, why did you come so early today?"He then

However, before she fell back to sleep, she heard the sound of Shawn's slippers shuffling on the carpet as he walked toward the door.Shawn opened the door. "What's the matter?""Mr. Wood, Lucas, Peter, and Mary are all here, having tea in the living room," the housekeeper reported."What? All three of them are here?""Yes, so I hurried to inform you both as well."The housekeeper dared not look into the master bedroom, only hoping that Gale was already awake and had gone downstairs to check.Shawn asked, "Did they come together or separately?""Uh... they came at the same time, but each in their own car. I'm not very sure about the details. They look quite normal though," the housekeeper said.That puzzled Shawn a bit. What could have prompted the elders to come so early in the morning and without any notice?"I see. I'll go down immediately."He was about to turn around when he heard Gale's voice behind him. "What? Mom and Dad are here? Grandfather too?"Gale had already g
