"Okay, let's fight again."

Ariana gave her a big hug.

"I'll call them and ask to sign the contract tomorrow."

That evening, Ariana left work in a good mood, which rarely happened

She went back to the Anderson family's residence by subway. When she walked through the door, the villa was quiet and the garden lights were dark. Normally Judy would be in the kitchen cooking at this time. Why couldn't she smell anything?

Ariana rubbed her hungry stomach and put on her slippers, calling out to Judy.

But it was Theodore who answered.

“Judy asked for some Leave and went home."

The man was maneuvering his wheelchair on the balcony. He was wearing a suit and his hair was meticulously combed. It seemed he had just come back.

I'll cook then. What would you like to eat?" Ariana went into the kitchen and opened the fridge to find it empty

Theodore followed her and glanced at the empty fridge.

“Let's go out for dinner."

Downtown, colorful Lanterns filled the streets, reminding everyone it was a holiday. Young couples walked around, in intimate embraces.

It was only then that Ariana remembered it was Valentine's Day. She turned to look at Theodore who was sitting next to her. He looked out the window, with his chin resting on his hand. He looked indifferent, and it was unclear what he was thinking.

Ariana looked away again and fiddled with the button on her coat. Such an indifferent person wouldn't pay attention to holidays like Valentine's Day, and he certainly wouldn't have come out with her today if he had known, she thought to herself.

The car stopped outside an expensive French restaurant. A man stood at the door, and Ariana assumed he was the manager. When he saw Theodore, he gave him an enthusiastic smile.

“Mr. Anderson, welcome. Let me take you to the private room." He then introduced some of their new dishes while he walked.

Clearly, Theodore was a regular here. The restaurant spanned three large floors, and was decorated with an authentic French style.

The manager led them to a luxurious private room on the top floor. It was a superior location, with floor-to-ceiling windows with a view of the sea.

It was a shame it was snowing. The view wasn't very clear.
