“I’ll do whatever you say. I’m heading back now. Tomorrow’s the competition–I take you there.”Â
In the end, no one knew exactly what Emily said.Â
But Daniel became like a happy puppy, exceptionally gentle and warm.Â
Emily met his smiling eyes, feeling like there was a huge whirlpool about to pull her in.Â

She pressed down on her racing heartbeat, thinking to herself that she couldn’t get too close to him rightÂ
now. Her heart was increasingly out of control, about to fall.Â
Having just gotten out of a relationship, she needed time to think clearly about what she wanted. SheÂ
didn’t want to be controlled by emotions again so quickly and make a hasty decision.Â
Emily opened her mouth, about to refuse. “No need, you’re busy too.”Â
“I’m not busy. It’s settled then. After your competition, you’re going to the Smith Villa anyway, so naturally,Â
I should pick you up and drop you off myself to feel at ease!”Â
Daniel didn’t give Emily much chance to refuse. After saying this, he turned and left the villa.Â
The next day.Â
Daniel arrived at the villa early to wait for Emily.Â
“Sorry, I stayed up late last night and woke up late!”Â
When Emily got up and found Daniel waiting outside early, she felt a bit embarrassed.Â
“There’s still plenty of time, take your time.”Â
Daniel knew Emily had a competition, so naturally, he had found out who was organizing it and even got them to give him a detailed schedule. So he knew what time Emily’s competition was.Â
Even if Emily were really late, with just a word from him, they would make an exception for her.Â
Of course, he believed Emily wouldn’t be late.Â
Besides, he understood Emily and knew she probably wouldn’t want to use this seemingly unfair methodÂ

anyway.Â
If she were going to win an award, it would naturally be through the fairest, most ment–based way.Â
He set out the prepared breakfast on the dining table..Â
“When you’re ready, come eat breakfast. I had it prepared!” Daniel’s voice was low and calm. His sleevesÂ
were rolled up from working, revealing his lean wrists, adding a casual and sexy touch.Â
She quickly went upstairs to wash up briefly before coming back down.Â
Daniel hadn’t eaten, seemingly waiting for her.Â
Emily had already calmed her emotions and started having breakfast with him.Â
Neither of them spoke again, but the atmosphere was particularly harmonious and warm.Â
Emily took a sip of the porridge, and her eyes immediately lit up.Â
She didn’t expect it to be so fragrant. She wondered where Daniel had found someone to make it—it was just porridge, but it was so delicious.Â
The sandwiches were also especially good.Â
Daniel saw Emily’s eyes light up as she ate.Â
This meant she was very satisfied with the food.Â
Instantly, joy bloomed in Daniel’s heart.Â
She liked the breakfast he made.Â
Daniel’s face showed nothing, but he quietly ladled another bowl of porridge for her.Â
Both of them ate this meal with great satisfaction.Â
Daniel then personally drove Emily to the competition Menue.Â
Yesterday, because Daniel had someone look into the competition, the organizer, being smart, guessed that Daniel might show up today. So they’d been secretly checking visitor information, and sure enough, they spotted Daniel.Â
What surprised the organizer even more was that Daniel, who had stayed awa was even rumored to possibly like men, had a girl with him for the first time.Â
And he was personally escorting this girl to the competition.Â
on for years andÂ
“Mr. Smith, hello, I’m the person in charge of this competition. Your presence at our design competition isÂ
truly an honor!”Â
The organizer smiled so enthusiastically that Emily, watching, worried a bit for his face–afraid he might smile so wide his face would break.Â
