Semua Bab Standing before love : Bab 501 - Bab 510

The meal had made everyone in the Langston Family quite nervous. Upon seeing Robert’s attitude toward Caleb, everyone was doubting Caleb’s position.Because Robert did not introduce Caleb to the Langston Family and Caleb did not make his position clear, the rest of the family members did not know how they should treat him.On the other hand, even though Heather knew his high-ranking position, she was quite indifferent as it was nothing to her and she had no interest in the military. After all, not only was she a talented businesswoman, she also liked entrepreneurs more than military men.An outstanding entrepreneur would warrant second glances from her, but sometimes she also wondered why she had her eyes on entrepreneurs. It was as if she had decided that she wanted her future husband to be involved in business.After the lunch, Caleb showed no signs of leaving, but Heather wanted to look for an excuse to return to her room. However, his occasional glances at her made her swallow her

Heather pushed open the windows and turned around to smile at Leon as she inhaled the fragrant scent of the flowers in the air. “ Leon, have you heard of Caleb Moriarty?” Perhaps Leon knows something about him, she thought to herself.However, Leon stared at her with a confused expression. In all honesty, he couldn’t quite recall this person at all, so he asked rather perplexedly, “Is he from Bradfort City?”Heather shook her head in reply. “Could you help me look into this man? He’s a general from Leisfeld.”Surprised, Leon wondered, How did she get involved with someone from Leisfeld? He furrowed his brows and placed his cell phone aside.“Why are you asking me to investigate this person out of the blue?” he asked, needing a plausible reason from her.Heather, on the other hand, said resignedly, “Today, he paid us a visit and mentioned our arranged marriage…” She couldn’t quite bring herself to mention the rest of it. Obviously, no one would be able to accept this sudden appearance

As Heather walked out of the apartment, the cold breeze hit her face and it brought upon a wave of coldness. However, she couldn’t stop thinking of Leon’s words; he actually made a lot of sense. Perhaps making use of Matthias is the most logical decision right now. However, the thought of having to become entangled with Matthias once again deterred her from making this move. As far as things were right now, Caleb hadn’t made his move just yet.She didn’t go to her car immediately after walking out of the housing compound; instead, she decided to take a walk around the area. Normally, she felt better after taking a walk when she was in a bad mood and presently, she enjoyed being out on this bitterly cold night.There was a drop in temperature on this cool, fall night and it slowly seeped into her. The cold air flowed through her jacket so she quickly wrapped herself up tightly. Today, she was dressed quite thinly and the bone-chilling cold air on such a night reawakened her senses, mak

The next morning, Heather woke up on the couch. She tried to open her sleepy eyes but her entire body was aching. I can’t believe I fell asleep on the couch! After getting up, she loosened up her neck uncomfortably before quickly taking a bath.She came out of the bathroom feeling refreshed, and her eyes were bright as she dried her wet hair. Then, a knock was heard on the door, so she quickly opened it and saw the butler standing outside.“What’s the matter?” Usually, the butler would follow Robert around to serve him, so the former would rarely see to others in the Langston Residence.“We have a guest outside. He is your friend, Miss Heather.”At the moment, Heather was still wearing her pajamas and her hair was wet. She tried to guess who it was and she wondered, Who would visit us this early in the morning?Looking at the butler’s mysterious expression, she slowly muttered, “I’ll change my clothes and be right there.” After that, she closed the door straight away but at the very l

There was only silence all the way to the art gallery and Matthias didn’t answer Heather’s question. Am I doing this because I hate her? Or is it because I’m exacting my revenge? At first, this was actually the reason why he did it but at some point, he began to look at her differently.After the car stopped, she got out of the car straight away without even waiting for him to open the door for her. Looking at her retreating figure, Matthias had many emotions surging within him but he didn’t know what to say.There were many times he wanted to tell her outright that he had fallen in love with her, but the moment the words reached the tip of his tongue, he couldn’t spit them out.After all this time, he had never confessed his love to anyone since his confession toward Myra had totally failed back then. He had always been waiting for a chance to say the words that he was preparing for a long time. Should I be more fancy like on television or more straightforward and simple?“Heather!”
