As soon as Herbie asked the question, Adela nearly choked on her food. She quickly reached over and pulled Herbie’s arm, her voice slightly flustered."What nonsense are you talking about? Just eat your food."Herbie, still brimming with curiosity, looked back and forth between Layson and Adela, clearly expecting an answer. Layson, on the other hand, let out a quiet chuckle, amused by how unexpectedly helpful Herbie was turning out to be. Meanwhile, Ralph, who had been quietly observing, suddenly blinked and tilted his head, his little face full of confusion."What does getting married mean?"Adela felt her temples throb. Why was this conversation still happening? She was already overwhelmed by Layson’s sudden visit with Ralph, and now they were diving headfirst into a conversation about marriage?"Getting married means two people stay together forever," Layson answered smoothly, his deep voice calm and certain.Adela’s fingers clenched slightly around her forks. Hearing those words f

Late at night, Layson lay awake, staring at the faint glow of streetlights reflecting on the ceiling. Beside him, Ralph was sound asleep, his soft, steady breathing filling the quiet room. Layson turned his head slightly and glanced at the boy—he was sleeping so soundly, completely at ease.Just then, a faint noise came from outside.The guest room where Layson was staying was right next to Adela’s bedroom, and the sound seemed to be coming from her direction. Frowning slightly, he got up quietly, wanting to check what she was doing.Meanwhile, in her room, Adela stirred awake, feeling incredibly thirsty. Reaching out for the glass of water she usually kept on her nightstand, she realized it was empty. Letting out a small sigh, she slipped out of bed as quietly as possible, careful not to wake anyone. She tiptoed toward the kitchen, poured herself a glass of water, and drank it all in one go.Just as she placed the glass back on the counter, a deep voice suddenly spoke from behind her

The weekend flew by in a blur of cozy movie nights and home-cooked meals for Adela and Herbie. They had spent two peaceful days together, indulging in the little joys of life. But soon, Monday arrived, bringing back the usual hustle of work and school.“Adela, I’m heading to school!”Herbie called out, her voice slightly muffled by the piece of toast she was hastily chewing. She quickly slipped on her shoes and dashed out the door before Adela could even remind her to be careful.Adela sighed, shaking her head as she grabbed her own bag and headed out.At Starry Jewelry, the office building was already buzzing with energy. As soon as Adela stepped inside, she was greeted by a crowd gathered around the elevators. She exhaled deeply—New York’s fast-paced work culture was no joke. But the busy environment also meant less time for overthinking. Adjusting her expression, she reminded herself to start the day with a smile.Meanwhile, in the Director’s Office…Leopold Davis leaned back in hi

Summer was quickly approaching, and the sun was the best proof of it. At Starry, the entire design team was working overtime, racing against the clock to finalize the summer jewelry collection.Adela had also been working late for several days in a row. Just last night, she had stayed at the office until well past midnight, making sure everything was on track. She was exhausted, so when Saturday morning rolled around, she was relieved that she could finally sleep in.But her peace didn’t last long.Half-asleep, she heard her phone ringing. Groggily, she fumbled under the covers until she finally found it.“Hello?” she mumbled, her voice thick with sleep.“Adela, wake up! We have an emergency meeting at the office!”It was Cora.Hearing this, Adela snapped awake, sitting up so fast that her blanket slid off her shoulders.“What?! A meeting? On a weekend? Why?”“No idea, but Mr. Davis just announced it. Get here ASAP.”The call ended before Adela could ask anything else. She sat there f

Cora followed Leopold Davis into his office, barely settling into her seat before he spoke with a teasing smirk."Didn’t expect you to be so entertained today!"Leopold had been observing her reactions the entire time. It wasn’t just Layson acting out of character today—Cora had clearly enjoyed the show too. She had subtly nudged the conversation toward Adela multiple times, even stealing amused glances whenever Layson found ways to keep Adela engaged. Her usual cool demeanor had cracked just enough to show something else—curiosity, maybe even excitement.Cora hesitated for a moment, brushing a strand of hair behind her ear, suddenly feeling a little self-conscious."I just found it amusing," she admitted.She had always thought of Layson as someone untouchable—cold, distant, someone who didn’t waste time on unnecessary interactions. But today, he had gone out of his way to put on a whole act just to have lunch with Adela.Leopold watched her closely, his usual playful smirk softening
