Willow carried a bag of fruits in her hand.Despite Theodore's earlier insistence that she needn't bring anything, she felt it was inappropriate to arrive empty-handed, so she had bought some fruits in advance.Before Willow could speak, Theodore asked, "Where is Grandma?"Ellie felt embarrassed because no one answered her question, but she seemed accustomed to Theodore's mannerisms.She quickly regained her composure and said, "Grandma is in the side hall's greenhouse. She said to visit her as soon as you returned because she has something to discuss with you."Theodore frowned at the mention.Willow held his hand and said, "Go ahead.""I'll be back shortly. You just wait here.""Okay."After Theodore left, David came over to help Willow with her things. He said, "Ms. Jett, let me take those for you.""Thanks." Willow then handed the bag of fruits to David."Let me have a look," Ellie said as she gestured for him to bring it over.David hesitated for a few seconds before h

The air felt almost stagnant. No one in the household dared to speak, and everyone held their breath.Willow wasn't sure if this was the usual atmosphere in the Bassett family, but she knew it was because of her that it was like this currently.She had become the target of everyone's scrutiny, and it made her very uncomfortable."This is all my fault. I suggested we ask some questions since it was our first meeting, and it led to this awkward situation. Theodore, if you want to blame someone, blame me. It was my idea. I'll apologize to Ms. Jett," Ellie suddenly intervened, acting like the peacemaker.She asked, "Ms. Jett, you won't hold it against me, will you?"Willow wore a faint smile as she said, "Of course not."Asking a few questions was harmless. She also wanted to downplay the situation and let it pass without making a big deal out of it.Sara probably didn't want to strain her relationship with Theodore, so she reluctantly softened her tone a bit. She said, "Ms. Jett, y

Theodore's tone sounded as he usually did, but the way he served food and kept his gaze on Willow seemed to add a touch of tenderness to his words.Willow blushed. She defended herself, "I've been eating the whole time.""Yes, but you've been eating just one dish. You've nearly finished it."The plate of garlic butter shrimp in front of them was originally full, but it had been completely cleared. The white porcelain plate was so clean that he couldn't see any stains on it.Willow pretended to be composed in front of others. In reality, she was nervous.She looked at Theodore and said, "Your grandmother doesn't seem to like me.""As long as I like you, that's enough.""Huh?" Willow thought she misheard. This was the first time Theodore had used the word "like" on her.She wanted to confirm what she heard, but Theodore simply placed two more chunks of steak on her plate.He said, "There's no one else around now. Just focus on eating."Willow relented. She couldn't bring hersel

The night had grown late, and Ellie had already dismissed the Bassetts' maids. Hailey reached the door to the guest room on the second floor without any incident. A wave of unease washed over her as she opened the door, causing her to clench her fists.Hailey had never done anything like this before. She wouldn't have stooped to such a despised method of marrying into the Bassetts if it weren't for securing a promising future. There was no turning back now with things as they stood.The door's opening cut through the stillness of the night. The guest room was shrouded in darkness, utterly devoid of any light. Hailey relied solely on the sliver of light filtering through the door as she surveyed her surroundings.In the heart of the spacious guest room rested a sizable bed. The silk blanket was lifted slightly as if someone lay still beneath it. Hailey's heart seemed to swell with happiness as she closed the door and carefully felt her way toward the bed. She would officially be part

Kelly's voice echoed from beyond the door. "Ms. Jett, are you awake?"Willow was visibly flustered as she urgently motioned for Theodore to be quiet."What's got you so scared?" Theodore whispered."Why wouldn't I be scared? This isn't a hotel. It's your place!"This was Bassett Residence. It was Willow's first time here, and she ended up sleeping in Theodore's bedroom. While the more open-minded elders might understand, it was apparent to everyone last night that Sara had a strong disapproval of her."Now's the perfect time to let everyone at home know we've made it official. Grandma will have to accept it, whether she approves or not."Right after Theodore finished speaking, there came another knock at the door. He was about to respond, but Willow, in a panic, rushed over to cover his mouth.Amid their struggle, they both toppled onto the bed. A wave of raw chemistry permeated the air. Willow let out a muffled groan as she ended up beneath him along with the blanket. Suddenl
