Josh leaned over and noticed Zachary scrolling through Serenity’s social media posts.“Serenity seems to be having a great time traveling with the kids,” Josh remarked. “Jas mentioned she also wanted to take Xavier out, but she was worried she wouldn’t be able to handle him alone.“She asked when I could take a few days off. I won’t take too much time off. A week should be enough.”Zachary slipped his phone back into his pocket after he was done looking through the photos Serenity had posted on social media. “Once you’re done with what you have on your plate right now, you can take a break.”Josh thanked him with a grin. “I don’t know where we should even take him, though. Children love amusement parks, but for us adults, they’re just boring.”“Since you’re trying to spend quality time with him, the priority is making sure he has fun and enjoys his childhood, so of course, his interests come first. “You two ditch him at home all the time to go off on your own adventures, don’t y

Meanwhile, at La Grande Solville, inside the private dining room Rosalie had reserved, River was already seated at the table.On the chair beside him lay a bouquet of flowers. He had rushed out to buy it from a nearby florist.It was just an ordinary bouquet for his blind date, meant to give the impression that he was sincere about this blind date. Later in the afternoon, he planned to visit the florist again and commission a money bouquet made of cash for Rosalie.Regardless of the sacrifices he had to make for his career, he needed to start pursuing her. He could work on transforming Crest Co. while winning her over. That way, by the time the company’s restructuring succeeded, he would have the girl too.After all, neither of them was getting any younger.He was thirty-one, and she was twenty-nine. In the eyes of their elders, they were practically spinsters.River’s phone buzzed.Rosalie was calling.He answered immediately.“River, where are you?”Rosalie had just arrived

“Rosalie, did you say something? I couldn’t quite hear you. Maybe you should sit next to me.”River grinned, pulling out the chair beside him in invitation.“It would make it easier to serve you, too.”Rosalie shot him another glare. He just kept smiling.Of course, there was no way she was moving.She was the matchmaker. What kind of image would it give if she sat next to him, letting him dote on her?Instead, she turned to Madeline with a bright smile.“Help yourself, and don’t forget to serve River, too. He’s not picky and he eats anything.“Plus, his cooking is amazing. Those lucky enough to taste it still rave about it.”Rosalie had only heard about this, of course.Given their rivalry, she never had the privilege of sampling River’s culinary skills.People claimed his cooking surpassed five-star chefs.Rosalie thought those people were just kissing River’s ass and refused to believe it, not without proof.Still, as the matchmaker, she had to sell his virtues.“Madel

Rosalie’s expression darkened.“River! Can you be serious for once?”River said innocently, “I am being serious. I’m not even smiling. Everything I said is true.”Rosalie was momentarily speechless.After a pause, she tried again. “So do you actually want to go on these blind dates or not? If not, I won’t waste time arranging tonight’s blind date, and I’ll cancel this whole month’s blind dates.“Yes, we signed an agreement, and I can’t go back on it, but if you’re the one not cooperating, that’s on you. It wouldn’t be my fault even if I canceled the dates.”River replied, “But I showed up, didn’t I? You arranged a blind date with your employee, and I came. I even brought her flowers. How is that not cooperating?”Rosalie gritted her teeth. “You came, but you didn’t engage. You didn’t even serve her food.“Why did you keep serving me? Do you have any idea how that looks? She probably thinks I’m the one you’re interested in!”River said guilelessly, “But I don’t know Ms. Lejeune

“A matchmaker can arrange the meeting, but can’t guarantee a match every time.“It was an honor just having the chance to meet Mr. York today. I never dared to expect he’d be interested in someone like me. I came in with no expectations, so this outcome isn’t surprising at all.”Rosalie glanced at her briefly before returning her focus to the road.“Madeline, you’re still young and just starting your career. Focus on your work first. Gain some achievements. That’ll give you an advantage when it comes to dating or marriage later.“At least you won’t be looked down upon by any potential in-laws.”Madeline agreed. “You’re absolutely right. I’ll concentrate on my career for now. After a few years, once I’ve made some progress, then I’ll think about relationships and marriage. There’s no rush anyway.”“Keep it up. I believe you’ll go far.”“Thank you, Ms. Lafayette. I will.”When they arrived back at the office, Madeline got out of the car first. Instead of heading straight into the
