Pained Reginald
She grew up in the countryside of Yorkshire with her grandparents, and her favorite pastime was exploring the wild daisies, dandelions, irises, and sunflowers near their cottage.She had no affection for these exotic imported roses because they seemed too high-maintenance to enjoy.Buying so many was purely malicious.As they neared the entrance to the Treasures of Yesteryear antique shop, Arabella suddenly stopped and said, "You don't need to accompany me any further."Reginald furrowed his brow slightly. "Afraid your colleagues will see us together?""We're destined to divorce anyway, aren't we?" Her voice trembled ever so slightly, her heart quivering.The edge of this painful ordeal felt like being peeled by a dull knife.Reginald fell silent for a moment, halting his steps, wordlessly watching her retreating figure, his gaze as deep as a calm water surface.At the entrance to Treasures of Yesteryear, Arabella encountered the store manager, Cosmo Harrington.He chuckled. "Such bea

Awkward Arabella
The door opened, and a person walked in. Oval-faced, with delicate and beautiful features, she was dressed in a white off-shoulder lace blouse, tucked into a tight pencil skirt, adorned with a full set of Cartier jewelry. She had her arms draped in a Chanel coat and held an Hermès handbag.It was Chloe.Upon seeing her, Reginard's expression cooled slightly. "What are you doing here?"Chloe swayed her slender waist, elegantly walking behind Reginard. She draped her arm over the back of his chair, leaned down, and her red lips almost brushed against his earlobe. "I heard Reggie was dining here, so I thought I'd come by to say hello."Reginard rubbed his ear as her warm breath made it itch. He turned his head slightly, avoiding the sensation. Seeing that she had no intention of leaving, he said casually, "Take a seat.""Thank you, dear Reginard." Chloe pulled out a chair and sat down, draping her coat over the backrest.The waiter quickly brought her a set of utensils.Reginard slid the

Unnecessary Worries
Reginald turned to Chloe, "You should head home, Chloe."Chloe's lips pursed slightly, displaying some reluctance. Nevertheless, she stood up, saying, "Dear Arabella, please don't be upset. Reggie and I were just having dinner, and George can vouch for that."George, sitting nearby, nearly rolled his eyes. What began as a simple meal of shrimp had turned into a feast of voyeuristic delights, with Chloe personally feeding Reggie soup and water.Seeing no one insisting she stay, Chloe reached for her coat draped over the chair. As she lifted it, the hem knocked over a teacup at the table, shattering it into pieces.Quickly bending down to collect the shards, the sharp edge cut her fingertip, and blood immediately began to flow. She cried out in pain, holding her finger, tears streaming down her face. Her fingertips trembled. She grasped the edge of the table for support, whimpering to Reginald, "It hurts so much, Reggie, can you take me to the emergency room to bandage it up?"George gl

The Misunderstanding Between Them
"The moonlight is truly beautiful. Just talking to her lifts my spirits. Suddenly, Arabella's gaze froze. She saw a tall and elegant figure approaching from a distance. The man was unusually tall, gracefully shaped, with light and charming strides. Even from this distance, Arabella instantly recognized him—it was Reginald. She wondered, wasn't he the one who just took Chloe to the hospital? How did he return so quickly? Noticing her unusual reaction, Cosmo Harrington asked, "Your cousin is here." Arabella paused and weakly murmured in response. As Reginald approached, Cosmo politely extended his right hand, "I assume you're Arabella's cousin. Nice to meet you, cousin. I'm her colleague, Cosmo Harrington." Reginald glanced at Arabella, his gaze icy. "I'm your cousin?" Looking up at him, Arabella's expression remained calm. "Yes, cousin." In her clear eyes, there was evident stubbornness. Someone accustomed to gentleness quietly rebelled. Reginald had initially intended to sc

Accidental Fall
Arabella spoke earnestly, "You helped my grandmother find a kidney donor, saved her life. You bought a house for our family, lifting us out of poverty. I am truly grateful; my grandfather instilled in me the importance of repaying kindness."Reynald listened expressionlessly until the last word. Lazily lifting his eyelids, he asked without much emotion, "Do you feel gratitude only toward me?"Arabella fell into silence.In the past, if he had asked such a question, she would have answered without hesitation – gratitude, along with the accumulated emotions over the years.But now, with him proposing a divorce and getting close to Chloe, holding onto any resentment would only make her seem cheap.She gently bit her lip, making no sound.The elevator doors opened.They stepped out.Arabella took out her keys to unlock the door.Reynald silently watched as she changed her shoes.When she stood up straight, he suddenly leaned against the wall, pulling her into his embrace. He looked down a

He lazily raised his eyelids without much emotion and asked, "Are you only grateful to me?"Alarabella fell silent.Once, if he had asked that, she would have answered without hesitation—beyond gratitude, there were feelings built over time.But now, he had asked for a divorce, and he was getting close to Chloe.

revenge
"The money is for your medical expenses. I have urgent matters to attend to. Can we connect later?"Arabella was in too much pain to speak.Everything before her turned pitch black, and she could see nothing.Her eyes—she had worked diligently every day, dedicating nearly two decades, inheriting all the skills from her grandfather.

Struggles of the Night
Cosmo focused on studying her face. "Your eyes look fine. Tomorrow your vision will be restored." He made a call to the nurse to bring medication.Soon, the nurse arrived with eye drops and cotton swabs. Cosmo dripped the eye drops into Arabella's eyes and administered an intravenous drip.The eye drops could greatly alleviate the pain. After Cosmo finished, he gently patted Arabella's arm."It's getting late; you should rest. I'll come to see you tomorrow."Reginald stood up. "I'll escort you out."The two exited the room, and Reginald closed the door. He glanced at Cosmo. "Arabella doesn't like your type; I advise you not to pursue her feelings."Cosmo's face changed slightly, revealing a smug smile. "What type of person does Arabella like?"Reginald couldn't imagine Robert's appearance and couldn't identify his "type." So he said, "She likes my type."Cosmo's smile deepened. "Too bad you're her cousin."Reginald's eyes filled with coldness. "I am her..."Ding ding ding, Cosmo's pho

crazy woman
Raynald gently acknowledged and then walked to the bedside. He leaned slightly towards Chloe and softly called her name. Staring blankly ahead, Chloe slowly turned her head upon hearing Raynald's voice. Upon seeing his face, she burst into tears. Raynald sat down by the bedside and gently patted her arm. "Chloe, you must be strong now." Tears streamed down Chloe's face. In pain, she cried out, "My hand... Raynald... my hand is ruined!" Raynald tried to reassure her, "You're young, and you can recover." "I can't recover! The bones are shattered, pieced together bit by bit. My life is over!" Chloe cried in despair, her heart seemingly torn apart. Watching Chloe sobbing pitifully, Raynald couldn't help but recall the heartbreaking expression on Arabella's face when her fingers were broken. He gently wiped away Chloe's tears with a tissue. "Don't cry now; try to stay positive." "I can't be positive! Ah..." Chloe's wails continued. Raynald wasn't sure how long he had been trying t

War in the Hospital Room
Arabella pursed her lips slightly and looked at Eva, gesturing for her to explain.Eva quickly recalled, "Madam was quietly sitting and reading, and Mrs. Jones suddenly barged in, cursing at her and wanting to hit her. I intervened at the beginning, but she kept hurling the most vicious insults at Madam—even me. I couldn't stand it anymore, but Miss Arabella patiently listened calmly for quite a while before finally erupting."Reginald's expression instantly chilled. He commanded Olivia, "Apologize to Arabella."Olivia was greatly surprised, thinking she must have misheard. "Reginald, I'm the one who's been hurt. If anyone should apologize, it should be her. Look at the force with which she hit me! She must have also sent someone to break Chloe's hand!"Reginald's expression became serious. "Your extreme pain for Chloe is understandable. But without evidence, you can't casually accuse Arabella. Physical harm is harm, but so is emotional harm. You insulted Arabella, so you must apologi
