The next day, Adrian told Samantha and Gloria about his plan to take Riley to meet her first love and drove to the Xander Group. He called Riley when he was at the entrance of the building.She was flustered and said on the call, “Okay, okay. I get it. Why are you being so pushy? I’ll be right down!”It did not take long before Riley walked out of the building. She had on her business suit paired with high heel sandals and her long hair draping across her shoulder as usual. However, her cheeks were tainted with a tinge of pink which made her seem shy. She appeared to be rather embarrassed, perhaps because she was about to meet her first love. Her rounded face did not look like her usual self.“This is what you wear to meet your boyfriend? Can’t you be classier?” Adrian said as he looked her up and down.Riley rolled her eyes and opened the door, her face beet red. She said, “I don’t have a nice figure like your Samantha who looks good in everything she wears, so this is all that I

Adrian left in the company of Marie. He planned on taking a stroll around the farmstead.Benson and Riley stood opposite each other.Benson’s heart was racing ever so slightly after hearing Adrian’s remark earlier. He quietly looked at the woman standing before him and felt all the memories of their time from their university days fill his mind.Benson was at a loss for words under the circumstances. After all, it was he who had broken up with Riley in the past. He was rather reserved upon meeting the love of his life once again.Riley looked at Benson quietly as well. They looked at each other in this manner for a while. The people in the surroundings began to discuss softly.“I recall you being a good talker. Why aren’t you saying upon meeting me? I remember you being very talkative when you were pursuing me,” Riley said as she looked at Benson.Benson chuckled awkwardly and hastily said, “Please come in, Riley.”Riley did not comment further and strode into the estate.Benso

“Awesome! I’ll go look for him right now!”Seeing Riley nod, Benson was overwhelmed with excitement and instantly ran outside. She hastily called out, “Hey!”Riley went chasing after him.***On the estate’s farm, Adrian and Marie were strolling around. As a local of Mount Sol, the eighteen-year-old Marie had been helping Benson out since she was a child and was very familiar with the place. She served as a guide and explained everything to Adrian whenever they strolled through an area.They soon arrived at an orchard. It was coincidentally harvest season now, and there were numerous staff members harvesting fresh fruits in the orchard. Marie led Adrian inside to gaze at the dense growth of fruits on the trees. The scene uplifted one’s mood.Marie explained, “This is the fruit orchard where we’ve planted several dozen types of fruits including apples, pears, dates, and many others. This is the largest orchard in our farmstead, and it’s apple harvest season right now. The apples g

Marie shut her eyes to enjoy Adrian stroking her hair for a while. When she opened her eyes, she giggled. "Can I call you my big brother?"Adrian nodded. "Of course, you can."Marie excitedly stood up and patted the soil off her. Giggling even more, she said, "From the TV shows I watched, brothers always give their little sisters presents. So, what are you planning to give me, Big Brother?"Adrian was slightly startled. "I thought you said you don’t watch TV."Marie stuck out her tongue. "I meant I don't watch military news. I love watching dramas, the ones that have fiery romance and lots of excitement."Inside the heart of every girl was the longing desire to be in a relationship that was passionate and filled with love—a fantasy life, per se.Adrian laughed. He then slipped off a ring from his finger, took Marie's hand, and put it around her middle finger.Confused, Marie asked, "What's this? Is this an engagement ring? Are you proposing to me?""Silly girl, engagement rings

A wave of absolute happiness washed over Benson and Riley.***Meanwhile, Adrian and Marie arrived at a farm. There were all kinds of herbs planted across the fields, which went all the way up the mountains, a gentle breeze blowing through like spring.She began to introduce the herbs scattered across the field, their uses, and their benefits. Despite being just eighteen, Marie knew a whole lot about medicinal herbs. Just as she was introducing another herb, Adrian cut her off."How's Mr. Benson's health lately?"Marie was stunned for a moment, unsure why Adrian would suddenly ask about Benson's health. 'Maybe he's asking because he's worried about Riley.'At that thought, she replied, "Mr. Benson has always been in good health, Big Brother. There's nothing to worry about.""Little girls shouldn't lie," Adrian chided, leaving Marie slightly dumbfounded.'Looks like he noticed something.'Marie’s lips twitched as she revealed, "Okay, he had a couple of instances of upset stomac
