Chapter: 486
Entering from the living room, Helen overheard their conversation. With a flicker of resentment in her eyes, she feigned enthusiasm and asked, "Theodore, are you planning to charm Ariana tonight? Women appreciate romance. Consider preparing some gifts before heading to the restaurant, like a bouquet of flowers or exquisite jewelry."
As she spoke, she pretended to be concerned.
"I don't think we have enough time to buy jewelry now. Why not purchase some flowers? I'm aware of a renowned flower shop in the city. It's been in business for over 20 years, offering a wide variety of fresh flowers."
Although uncertain whether Ariana would like it, Theodore gave it some thought.
He hadn't given her any gifts, and they hadn't gone out on a date yet.
He decided to create a romantic atmosphere that night.
He had never pursued anyone before and had overlooked many things. Women. likely wouldn't be fond of men who lacked a romantic touch, which could be a reason Ariana sought a divorce from him.
A sudden sense of urgency gripped Theodore's heart. He pondered for a moment and accepted Helen's advice.
“Horace, help me purchase flowers. Ensure they're the freshest in the store."
With that, Theodore departed and entered the dressing room.
Observing his boss's retreating figure, Horace nearly burst into laughter. Men in love tended to be impulsive, but his boss finally grasped some fundamental aspects of romance.
"Horace, I've sent you the flower shop's address," Helen said obediently.
Horace nodded, "Thank you very much. I've reserved a room for you at the nearby hotel. Would you like me to take you there now?"
“I. can manage on my own. Horace, please proceed with your work." Helen offered a sweet smile.
“alright. Contact me if you need anything." Horace quickly left after checking the time.
Once Horace was entirely out of sight, Helen's expression instantly soured.
Damn that bitch! Ariana was unworthy of being with Theodore!
In the evening, as Ariana arrived at the restaurant, Theodore was already there, awaiting her presence. He donned a silver-gray suit, exuding elegance and sophistication.
Ariana wore a black dress and matching sweater. As they entered together, they appeared as the perfect couple.
The two guards couldn't help but steal a few extra glances at them.
