Summer looked at James with a surprised expression. "This can't be real… You brought me here today for this?""Yes, this is the surprise I prepared for you. I thought you would like everything I did for you."James was absolutely right. Summer loved everything he had done. It was as if he could read her mind!No, it was more like they had a telepathic connection between them as husband and wife. So, he knew what she liked and arranged for them for her.Summer looked around the villa happily, feeling amazed. With light steps, she went to sit on a cotton armchair."I like it here. Are we staying here tonight?""Yes, we are. And I have another surprise." As James spoke, he clapped, and Lexi suddenly popped into the villa. She smiled foolishly at Summer, holding a bottle of champagne in her hand."Mrs. Quigley, Mr. Quigley has prepared a big surprise for you." Lexi popped open the champagne, causing it to spray like a fountain. The extravagant smell of alcohol wafted in the air.

Since Summer had the opportunity now, she readily agreed."Let's cook together, then. And we can see whose cooking is better—mine or yours."James seemed amused by her challenge and agreed to it.He had already prepared the ingredients. The villa's refrigerator was stocked with various ingredients—spinach, cabbage, tomatoes, pork, lamb, and everything else that was available in the market.Summer and James agreed to each prepare three dishes. Then, Lexi and Charlie would judge which dishes were better.After the agreement, the two got busy. The kitchen in the villa was huge, and they each had plenty of space to cook.Summer used to frequently cook with Amelia, so she was confident in her culinary skills. Although talented, James had been born into a wealthy family and probably rarely cooked. So, Summer was full of confidence for this competition.Summer had already planned her three dishes—an omelet, garlic pork roast, and barbecue ribs. They were ordinary home-cooked dishes t

Just like that, the two of them essentially confirmed a tie. According to them, it was a three-to-three draw. Neither Summer nor James gained an advantage.At this moment, Summer asked, "Did you guys already guess which dishes are mine and which are James'?"Lexi and Charlie both fell silent. Even though they kept quiet, it was clear from the way their eyes darted around that they had indeed guessed it.After all, these dishes had distinct personal characteristics.James said, "It looks like we have a tie. I think Summie and I have different styles and flavors in our dishes, making it difficult to determine a winner."Lexi immediately nodded in agreement. "Yes, Mr. Quigley is right. Both of you cooked delicious food, but the styles are different. It's hard to compare."What they said was reasonable. Although Summer had wanted to compete with James to see who was the true master chef, it was better to let the matter go.Summer was starving; she just wanted to dive into the food a

As for why it was called Sunflower Garden, it was purely Summer's personal preference.To her, a sunflower symbolized vitality, sunshine, happiness, and freedom. Summer hoped that the future residents of Sunflower Garden could always be happy, hence the choice of name.Some employees in the company initially did not like the name, thinking it sounded a bit ordinary.Compared to "Sunflower Garden", names like "Starry Garden", "Moon River Garden", or "Bloomingdale Garden" would sound nicer. Unfortunately, Sunflower Garden just sounded a bit odd.In this regard, Gerald actually agreed with Summer. He thought that Sunflower Garden sounded positive and meaningful, so they settled on it.With that, the first phase of the Sunflower Garden project began with an initial investment of 300 million dollars. Charter Corporation, as the main developer, had already contacted construction units to begin the project.It would take about half a year before the first phase of Sunflower Garden could

Firstly, Bradly was indeed up to something. Perhaps he intended to play a game to mock Summer.The second possibility was that James had secretly made a move, letting Bradly transfer the order, which originally belonged to Quigley Group, to Charter Corporation.Comparing these two possibilities, Summer felt that the latter was more likely. James now knew that Charter Corporation was ready to develop, and if they helped other companies design villas, they could earn a hefty profit. Plus, it wouldn't require much investment.Although she didn't know which possibility it was, since she had gotten a free lunch, it would be foolish not to take it."I understand, Bradly. I accept your order, but tell me more about your project and the remuneration.""No problem." Bradly was visibly pleased that Summer had agreed and began to explain their project.The project was mainly targeted at high-end customers. The initial design concept was to create a modern project with nature as the theme.
