Julian was speechless."With things at this point, what's the point of hiding anymore?"Julian had clearly heard Greg's furious outburst over the phone, but Rowan continued to deny it. Julian assumed that maybe Rowan was just in the early stages of dating Evelyn and felt a bit hesitant to admit it, which he understood.So, in the capacity of someone with experience, he offered some advice to Rowan. "Here’s a piece of advice: When you're in a relationship, be careful not to say things that might offend your partner. Otherwise, you'll definitely drive her away."Rowan had an infuriating demeanor on a daily basis. Because of that, Julian had made this call. He couldn't help but worry about Rowan's love life. He genuinely wanted to help.However, in response to his well-intentioned advice, Rowan only responded with a disdainful snort. "Hah."It left Julian in an awkward position, unsure of whether to continue talking or not.Rowan thought Julian might be a bit foolish. If one genu

Regardless of Jeremy's intentions, his irresponsible behavior had genuinely hurt Evelyn in her view. It had added in her another layer of disappointment in him.A man who had lost his grace was not a good sign. Even a woman like Evelyn, who had loved and moved on, could part amicably. So why was Jeremy so persistent in his pursuit?Some might argue that those who can easily let go have never truly loved. However, that wasn't the point Evelyn was trying to make. If it was impossible for the relationship to work, being unable to let go would only amount to self-inflicted suffering.Jeremy's parents were extremely concerned about their reputation and would never accept her being with Jeremy. Furthermore, at this point, Helena had also lost all hope in Jeremy. Evelyn herself felt disappointed.She was well aware that there was no future for her and Jeremy, so she had started letting go from the moment he broke off their engagement two years ago. Two years were enough for he

Evelyn was an early riser by habit, especially now with Helena in the hospital. So, she got up early, prepared breakfast, and left the house. It had rained all night yesterday. As she stepped out today, autumn was already in the air.The weather had a touch of chill after an autumn rain, with significant temperature differences between morning and evening. Evelyn had learned her lesson from yesterday. She bundled up in a thick cardigan before going out to prevent herself from freezing again.While she was still on the bus, she received a call from a company asking her to come for an interview at 9:00 AM.The caller mentioned that their company's name was "Creative Sail Designs”. Evelyn furrowed her brows, trying to recall if she had applied to this company. However, upon further thought, she realized that she had sent out so many resumes recently that she might have overlooked this particular one.Regardless, she was currently eager to receive any interview invitations. So, a

Right now, his thoughts were centered on Evelyn.He knew she was coming for an interview today, but he didn't expect to run into her like this.When he saw her enter the elevator with red eyes and a dazed expression, it felt like someone had taken a hammer to his heart.He was well aware of the unusual emotion he was experiencing. It was the kind of feeling that arose when someone held special significance to you.Taking a deep drag from his cigarette, Rowan's demeanor seemed even colder and mysterious amidst the swirling smoke.To be honest, Rowan had never imagined that his future would be linked to any woman.His romantic history, while not entirely pristine, wasn't chaotic either.Especially after the events of the past few years, he had come to appreciate the beauty of solitude.He had never thought about having any other thoughts about Evelyn, but it seemed that he had developed impure thoughts already, perhaps from that moment when he had wanted to kiss her.He didn't f

After hearing Barry's explanation, Rowan nodded in apparent understanding."Tigers might be fierce, but they wouldn't harm or eat their own offspring. Tell me, Mr. Stewart... There are some among us humans—well, parents, to be exact—who repeatedly push their children into miserable and helpless situations. Are such people worse than animals?"Rowan's words indirectly imply that Barry was less than an animal.Barry couldn't pretend not to understand, and his expression darkened immediately.Barry was in a predicament, but Rowan's repeated sarcasm and taunting got on his nerves. Moreover, Rowan was younger than he was! But wanting to get angry and actually having the courage and presence to do so were two different things.In the company of a man like Rowan, most men would pale in comparison. He possessed a handsome and captivating appearance, an elegant and distinguished demeanor, as well as experience and depth. His every move exuded the poise of a mature man. More important
