'What should I do? What should I say? Marcus will think something's going on between me and Mister Aaron if he comes here and sees we're having a candlelit dinner! How am I going to explain to him then?' thought Annie in a panic."What's the matter, Annie? Why aren't you saying anything?" asked Marcus quizzically after a while.After thinking about it, Annie decided to not let Marcus come. "Umm… The restaurant is very far from your office, and I'm just about to finish. Why don't we have lunch next time instead?"Marcus sounded dejected. "But I've already asked for a half-day leave, so it doesn't matter if the restaurant is far. I can take a cab there, and if you've already finished eating, I can send you home."Annie did not know what to say. 'He's so patient and kind to me. I can't let him come! He'll be super hurt if he does.'The private dining room they were in was very quiet. Aaron smiled at Annie when he heard what Marcus said."You should just have him join us for lunch si

Thus, Annie had no choice but to return to her seat. "You've crossed the line this time!"Aaron smiled and said softly, "Just stay and enjoy the lunch with me."After that, the waiter brought in one fancy dish after another.Annie ate without really tasting the food. All she could think about was how to explain what was going on to Marcus.The restaurant was not that far from Newmoon Group. In fact, it would only take Marcus 15 minutes by car to get there.Marcus smiled when he saw Annie in the room, but his smile froze when he realized Aaron was inside the room as well. He looked at Aaron, then back at Annie."Annie, why are you having a romantic lunch with Mister Aaron?"Annie smiled awkwardly. "Umm… It might look like a romantic lunch, but I can assure you it's just a casual lunch. Here, have a seat, Marcus. Order whatever you want. It's Mister Aaron's treat today," she explained as she patted the seat next to her.Marcus chose to believe Annie, but he still felt pressured t

Aaron smiled threateningly, causing a chill to go up Marcus' spine. For a moment, he thought he was going to fire him."Okay, then. Goodbye, Mister Aaron! We're going now," said Annie, breaking the silence as she pulled Marcus to the shopping mall near the restaurant.Aaron remained standing where he was, lost in thought for a few minutes before getting into his car.Annie dragged Marcus to the shopping mall and pushed open the glass door entrance before looking furtively back in the direction where they came from. She sighed with relief when she saw Aaron's car finally driving off.Marcus looked at her anxiously. "Annie, what is going on with you and Mister Aaron? Why does he seem like he really hates me?"Annie snapped back to the present and looked at him sheepishly. "Sorry, Marcus. I didn't mean to cause you any trouble…"Marcus quickly shook his head. "No, I don't mean that. I'm just worried that he's trying to steal you from me. I mean, I'll surely lose in a fight against h

Aaron went into the kitchen to heat up the food.Corinne glanced at Tommy. As annoyed as she was with him, there was nothing she could do about his presence. Thus, she sat at the dining table to wait for her lunch.Tommy frowned worriedly. He then took out his phone to text Jeremy.[Mister Jeremy, Miss Corinne is having takeout for lunch. It doesn't look like anyone living in the apartment knows how to cook.]Meanwhile, back at Holden Group.Jeremy was in a meeting, listening to his subordinates giving a slideshow presentation when his phone flashed twice.He picked up his phone to read the message, which caused his eyes to darken. He quickly replied to Tommy's text message.[Did she drink the soup?]Tommy looked up at the thermos that Corinne ignored ever since she left it on the table.[No.]After that, he did not receive any more reply from Jeremy. Nonetheless, he could feel his employer's anger through the screen.He looked at Corinne, who was eating the beef Wellington,

Corinne glanced at the soup and continued to eat her beef Wellington.Tommy looked helplessly at her before retreating to his spot at the main entrance.Aaron sniffed the soup. "This soup doesn't smell that nice. Guess Mister Jeremy isn't a good cook at all."Tommy was speechless.Corinne put down her fork and knife after she was full. She had finished all of the beef Wellington and half of the mushroom soup. The soup Jeremy cooked for her remained untouched.Just when Tommy was about to give up hope, Corinne suddenly picked up the bowl of soup. His eyes immediately lit up. 'Miss Corinne might act like she doesn't care about Mister Jeremy, but I knew she still has a soft spot for him. She must've been waiting for the soup to cool before drinking it. If only Mister Jeremy was here! He'd be so happy to see Miss Corinne drinking the soup he cooked,' thought Tommy.With that thought in mind, he secretly took out his phone to take some photos of Corinne drinking the soup.However,

Sophia put the container of cut fruits on the table and sat on the chair across from Jeremy. She then opened the container and said with a smile, "Okay, it is boring here, but you're here! I want to meet new friends and challenge myself in different areas to make the most out of my life. I mean, isn't that the point of living? Experiencing new stuff and stepping out of one's comfort zone?"As she spoke, she picked up a piece of chilled watermelon with a fork and passed it to Jeremy.Jeremy's head was throbbing from the long meeting and the photos Tommy sent. He took the fork from Sophia's hand and put the chilled watermelon inside his mouth to allow the coldness to wash away his annoyance.Sophia picked up a piece of watermelon and took a small bite. She then blinked and said curiously, "Jeremy, Miss Corinne must've treated you very well in the past for you to like her this much, huh?"Jeremy frowned at the mention of Corinne's name. After a long while, he asked her back, "How well

Sophia noticed Jeremy's attention was not really on her. After thinking about it, she said, "By the way, if possible, can you please invite Miss Corinne too? We didn't really start off on the right foot during our first meeting, but I'd still like to be friends with her. Can you please ask her for me?"At the mention of Corinne's name, Jeremy turned to look at her. "Why do you want to be friends with her that much?"Sophia grinned and said, "We're friends, Jeremy, so I should be friends with your wife too, no? That way, we can hang out together."Jeremy narrowed his eyes. "Probably only you'd think that."Sophia blinked innocently. "Huh? What do you mean? Don't you think Miss Corinne would think the same?"Jeremy glanced at Sophia's bandaged forehead. "She wouldn't have bashed your head onto the counter if she thought the same as you."Sophia touched the bandage on her forehead. "Oh, you mean this! I would've forgotten about it if you hadn't brought it up. Jeremy, I don't care ab

"Fine. You can stay in your room instead of annoying me here if you don't want to go back to work," said Corinne.Aaron revealed a vulnerable side of him that he would only show to Corinne. "Boss, I actually need your help with something."Corinne looked sideways at him. 'I knew this was coming.'"What?" she asked gruffly."Can you tell Annie I'm so sad that she's ignoring me and choosing her boyfriend over me?" said Aaron cheekily.Corinne was already annoyed by what happened, so she did not hesitate to push him away. "No! Not happening! Did you care about what she was feeling when you asked her to buy you some condoms that one time?"Aaron also knew he was guilty of that, but he still tried to defend himself. "That's 'cause I didn't like her then! Plus…it was you who asked me to make her give up on me."Corinne glared at him. "So this is all my fault? I only ask you to stay away from her. I didn't ask you to do something so hurtful!"Aaron waved his hand. "No, no, it's not yo

"What? Uncle Jeremy isn't here? Why are you here, then?" asked Annie in confusion."He asked me to stay here to protect Miss Corinne."Annie's lips twitched. "Oh my god, he's hopeless! Doesn't he know that what Corinne needs now is for him to spend time with her instead of asking you to stay to protect her? Ugh. You know what? Forget it! I'm going to see Corinne now."After that, she went into Corinne's room with a box of chocolates in her hand.Tommy sighed helplessly. He then texted Jeremy, [Mister Jeremy, are you going to visit Miss Corinne later?]A few minutes later, he received a reply from him. [Did she say she wants to see me?][No. She didn't say anything.]This time, Jeremy replied faster. [Okay. All you need to do is keep an eye on her.]Tommy sighed again. [Understood, Sir.]Somehow, he was panicking even more than Jeremy. He had just put away his phone when he saw Annie walking out of Corinne's room.She handed him some chocolates. "Here, these are for you.""Fo

Aaron took the chocolate from Annie's hand. Instead of eating it, he simply stared at it."Did you buy this? Or was it Marcus?""Actually…Marcus bought it for me," said Annie truthfully.Aaron raised an eyebrow. "So he won you over with this cheap chocolate? He might as well not buy it. Only chocolates from master chocolatiers are good enough to eat!"Annie did not like his attitude. "Mister Aaron, you can give me back the chocolate if you don't want to eat it. But you should know not everyone is rich or can spend thousands on a box of chocolates like you."Aaron smiled at Annie. "Well, that certainly doesn't apply to you. Your Uncle Jeremy can even hire a master chocolatier to go to your house to create custom chocolates right in front of your eyes, no?"Annie's eyes flickered. "I can do that, but…Marcus can't! His family isn't that rich, so he can't be wasting money on frivolous stuff like chocolates!"Aaron chuckled softly. "How is it wasteful when he's buying it for his girl
