I want to talk to him

Rowan hesitated to speak and glanced at James, who had paused to pay attention to their conversation.James interrupted her, a hint of concern in his voice. "What's wrong, are you still hungry?"Rowan opened her mouth to reply, but before she could say anything, James continued, "You really still want to eat? Alas, I really can't do anything with you. I'll heat it up for you! You wait here."With that, James stood up, collected the plates from the table, and made his way toward the kitchen."James," Rowan called out, suddenly halting him.James reluctantly stopped, his hands poised with the dishes.Rowan raised her head, gazing up at him as she spoke slowly, "James, I still want to talk to him."James put down the plates, looking at her with a furrowed brow. "Why?"Rowan explained, "He already knows about it... We can't let this linger in uncertainty. I'm afraid it will only become more complicated in the future."James, being a man, had a different perspective on the matter. His thou

James family issues

Rowan felt a growing unease within her.Initially, when David had taken the initiative to approach her, she had hoped it signified his willingness to reconcile with her. But David's recent behavior had left her feeling apprehensive.She feared that he might suddenly declare, "I will never break up with Flora, and I don't want the Thompson family's children to follow you outside. Just abort the child!" Such words could easily drive her to the brink of madness.So, after David fell into silence, Rowan hesitated to speak. Instead, she sat in silence, grappling with her thoughts.Outside the car window, James had been waiting patiently for some time, but he saw no sign of Rowan getting out of the car. He decided to take measured steps towards the silver car and leaned against a nearby flower bed.Though his movements were calm and composed, his slightly furrowed brows and the flicker of eagerness in his eyes betrayed his true feelings.David couldn't tear his gaze away from James.Suddenl

It won't take long

"When you came to visit me today, I initially thought you had already considered alternative solutions," Rowan remarked with a subtle smile.David lowered his gaze, hoping to conceal the hint of embarrassment that had momentarily flashed in his eyes.Rowan continued, her surprise evident in her tone, "I never expected to see you hesitate like this, David. It's a new side of you."David sighed in response, realizing that even he had never anticipated facing such a predicament.He should have remained steadfast in his commitment to Flora, who had been lost and then found. Yet, inexplicably, he kept finding himself drawn to Rowan.After a moment of silence, David spoke, as though trying to explain both to Rowan and himself, "If this child is mine, I can't let them grow up without me."Rowan's lips curled into a more pronounced sarcastic smile."Yes, you've said that before. But now you're uncertain about how to explain it to Flora, and you're unsure how to handle both me and the child gr

Just stay with me

When Steve heard this, he first glanced at Jessica, who was seated to his left. Jessica appeared composed as she quietly began clearing the dishes.In a deep, measured tone, Steve replied, "About a month."Curiosity piqued, Jessica inquired, "Have the hotel arrangements been made? Where is it?"Steve delicately served a piece of meat from Jessica's favorite dish into her bowl before answering casually, "I'll be staying here."The three other diners at the table suddenly halted their chopstick movements. Jessica acted swiftly and objected, "There's no room for you to stay here."Steve lifted his gaze to meet hers, calmly asserting, "I stayed here last night."Jessica hesitated for a moment before retorting, "Ryan and I both live here. There's no room for you." She glanced at the homeowner, Rowan, and added, "I suppose you could sleep on the sofa."James, unable to contain himself any longer, interjected, "You can come stay at my place; it'll be more convenient."After a moment's though

Tear into pieces

*Tear into pieces*Flora's recent experiences have left her feeling quite disheartened. Following Rowan and David's divorce, Flora and David's wedding had been a topic of discussion, urged strongly by David's mother.David had insisted that the wedding had to take place promptly, fearing that Flora might become pregnant before they tied the knot, and he wanted to ensure she wouldn't be wronged.He met with her family on two occasions, and the preparations for the wedding, including the ceremony, banquet, and hotel arrangements, were proceeding smoothly. Yet, David, one of the main figures in this event, appeared somewhat disinterested.Initially, Flora had assumed his disinterest stemmed from his hectic work schedule. This was the explanation provided by David's mother when he failed to attend Flora's wedding dress fittings. She tried to console Flora by holding her hand and speaking sincerely."Flora, you must understand that David is the only son in our family. His cousin is still q

Don't drive me away

*Don’t drive me away*David's office remained unchanged, much like his own demeanor—deserted, tidy, and somewhat monotonous in its decor.A faint fragrance wafted in the air, a subtle scent that didn't overpower the senses, suggesting perhaps the cleaning staff had lightly sprayed something.As Flora entered, her previously twisted and angry expression had transformed into a sweet smile. She carefully unpacked the meals from the food box and arranged them neatly on the low coffee table. Then, she softly addressed David."David, come over and have something to eat before you dive back into work; otherwise, the food will get cold soon."David, who had only exchanged a few words with her upon her arrival, continued to focus on his tasks. Upon hearing her voice, he responded simply, "Yes," without lifting his head from his work.Flora's gaze lowered, concealing the anger that had momentarily flashed in her eyes. For a while, the only sounds in the room were the scratching of David's pen a

Stay away from london

*Stay away from the city of London*"Rowan, someone is looking for you on the first floor," the call from the front desk interrupted Rowan's busy work in the hospital wardConfused, Rowan couldn't immediately think of anyone who would come to the clinic specifically to find her at this time. She bid her colleagues on duty a quick hello and took the elevator downstairs to the first floor.Arriving at the front desk, Rowan scanned the waiting area and, from a distance, spotted someone she wished she could avoid. Her initial instinct was to turn and leave.However, with few patients seeking advice at the moment, the reception staff were eager to assist. One of them raised her right hand and enthusiastically called out, "Rowan!" She then pointed to the person on the chair who had come to look for her.With her colleague's attention on her, Rowan couldn't escape the encounter. She reluctantly approached the waiting area, where Flora had already noticed her presence. Gracefully picking up h

You are here

You are hereFlora's primary concern was uncovering Rowan's intentions. She had extended such generous terms and approached the negotiation with a pleasant demeanor, all to ascertain whether Rowan had any intention of leaving. If Rowan had never considered relying on this child and the Thompson family for her livelihood, then why hadn't she accepted such favorable conditions?However, Rowan had different thoughts in mind. She had initially broached the idea of leaving London with David, but he hadn't responded at the time. Instead, he had summoned Flora to talk to her. Even people in complicated situations had their pride, and Rowan was no exception.Rowan responded coolly, "If this is what David wants, he should discuss it with me directly."Flora's expression darkened, her lips tightening as she spoke after a prolonged silence. "You're not willing to leave?"Rowan retorted without hesitation, "If you were in my shoes, would you want to leave? To quietly depart from the city where yo

The right opportunity

The right opportunity James firmly declined, "I won't attend."Steve tried to persuade him, "It's just a birthday party. You can make a brief appearance and come back."James remained resolute, "The invitation is for the Williams family, not for me. I have no interest in business matters, and we've agreed on this long ago."Steve glanced at Ryan and then changed his approach, "Take her with you then. It's a great opportunity, with many influential business families in London. It could be a suitable occasion."James understood his brother's hint immediately, but he pretended ignorance and asked, "Opportunity for what?"Steve smirked, "Don't play dumb. You know what I mean. If you don't act now, what chances do you think you'll have with her once he makes a move?"James fell into contemplative silence. He didn't want to admit it, but he couldn't deny that Rowan's feelings for David were profound and sincere. If she were forced to choose between him and David, she would undoubtedly cho

The fitting incident

The fitting incidentRowan, realizing the situation was becoming tense, decided to diffuse it with some humor. She stepped forward, extending a hand to the young woman with a friendly smile."I'm really sorry if there's been a misunderstanding. I didn't know this dress belonged to you. You have great taste; it's a beautiful dress, isn't it?"The young woman hesitated for a moment before shaking Rowan's hand cautiously, her expression softening."Well, yes, it is a beautiful dress. I just thought I'd come back for it, but I guess I was too late."Rowan, always ready to make amends, decided to offer a gesture of goodwill."How about this? You can have the dress. I didn't intend to buy it anyway. Consider it a gift from me."The young woman's eyes widened in surprise, and she glanced at Rowan, seemingly taken aback by her generosity."Are you sure?"Rowan nodded with a friendly smile, "Absolutely. No hard feelings, okay?"The young woman's expression transformed into a grateful smile. "
