As they passed by the shop, Mindy suddenly stopped and mentioned that she wanted to have some castella. Miranda glanced around, noticing that the shop looked quite old-fashioned, with outdated décor and no promotional posters.One had to walk all the way inside to see the menu of pastries listed on
Miranda asked, "Would you like to try some castella? I can get you a piece."Fiona was about to respond when Sam's phone rang. Whatever he heard on the other end made his expression turn cold immediately."Alright, I understand. Keep the situation under control. I'll get there as soon as I can," he
After visiting the garden and enjoying the castella, Mindy felt completely satisfied. The next day, she and Lionel headed back to Lumberville. Miranda had accompanied them to the train station.Upon hearing the news, Warren rushed over. "Ms. Harrison, these are letters from your fans sent to the pub
As they passed through the home essentials section, Paul paused and asked, "Do you need anything from here?"Miranda remembered that she was running low on both body wash and laundry detergent. "Yes, I do," she replied.While she was picking out the body wash, Paul was also adding items to the cart.
Miranda had no idea whether it was a lot or not because Paul wasn't replying to her messages anymore. Once she was done making all the rolls, she packed ten crab rolls into a bag, planning to bring them over to Paul.She knocked on his door for about half a minute, but there was no answer. Taking ou
"I'll treat you to dinner!" Zach immediately offered."No need. I already have plans. Maybe next time," Winter replied, moving to walk past him.Zach quickly caught up to her. "Then let me give you a ride?"Winter paused, glancing at him suspiciously. "Are you serious?""Yeah, totally!" Zach nodded
"I-I got tired and thought I'd pull over to rest for a bit. But then I ended up falling asleep…" Zach explained.Without another word, Winter circled the car. She opened the passenger door and slid inside. "Perfect. You can give me a ride home."Zach chuckled. "You really don't hold back, huh?" Desp
"I don't eat noodles," Winter said.Zach gave her a look that clearly said, "Yeah, right. Like I believe that."She was about to head back to her room when he suddenly asked, "How about a drink?"Winter glanced back at the wine, noticing the condensation on the decanter. It was her favorite kind of
Paul's genes ensured both good looks and a decent figure. On top of that, judging by how generous he was with his gifts, he clearly wasn't just an ordinary college professor. He probably came from an affluent family. Elite families like his often went back several generations, which meant his rela
Since it was the end of the year, the students were all on holiday. The vast school grounds felt a little deserted. Dallas Urban, the school's security guard, noticed Lionel coming from a distance. He stepped out of the guard booth and greeted him cheerfully, "Mr. Sutton!" Then his gaze landed on
"There's still a pile of pots and pans in the kitchen waiting to be cleaned," Jenny complained."I'm just like a maid that's born to toil endlessly, unlike you who can enjoy such an easy life. "You should really learn from Lionel. He cooks every time they host a gathering. You two are brothers, but
"I'm cooking something," Paul said. "Why are you cooking this late at night?" Susan asked. "I wanted a midnight snack."Susan knew her son didn't normally eat late. Clearly, he was cooking for someone else. The thought worsened her mood. "When are you planning to come back to Elgerson?" she asked
Suddenly, Miranda stopped walking. She turned to face Paul and said seriously, "Thank you, Paul, for coming to Lumberville to spend Christmas with me. And… thank you for being in my life."Paul was slightly taken aback. Then, he gently squeezed her hand. "You dummy. I should be the one thanking you.
Yale wasn't too pleased. "But… I was just trying to clear the way for you. Am I wrong for doing that?"He couldn't help but feel a little wronged. Paul softened his tone and explained, "That's not what I meant. First off, Mom had already agreed to me coming to Lumberville. There was no need for lie
"Oh, you're back? What were you guys doing?" Lionel came out of the kitchen, still wearing his apron. He looked a little puzzled when he saw everyone gathered around Paul and Miranda. "Dad…" Miranda was about to go over with the shopping bags, but Paul had already taken them from her before she cou
Jenny's usage of the phrase, "real boyfriend", was quite interesting. As if Miranda even had a fake boyfriend before.Jack spoke up immediately. "Let me do the honors. This is Paul Jefferson, a professor at Bedford College's Faculty of Physics. He's the youngest leading figure in the country for the
A man stood at the entrance. He was tall and imposing, and he had a cold expression on his face. Miranda stood next to him and looked equally stoic. Jenny was taken aback. Shock flashed in her eyes as she asked, "You… Who are you?"Paul stepped forward confidently, still holding Miranda's hand. "I
