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.
Asudden 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?”
“|, 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.
Once seated, the waiter presented Ariana with an immense bouquet of champagne roses. Struggling to hold them, she placed them on the chair beside her.
She gazed at Theodore in astonishment. “Did you send me these flowers? What prompted this surprise?”
It was Theodore’s first time making such a gesture, causing him to feel slightly embarrassed and awkward. Nevertheless, he nodded subtly to maintain his composure.
Ariana blushed, surprised by Theodore’s thoughtful gesture. She found it amusing since it wasn’t something he typically did.
In fact, she wasn’t particularly fond of flowers, but no woman could resist when the man she admired gifted her with them. Ariana felt delighted yet increasingly anxious about her impending conversation with him.
The dishes served were all her favorites. It marked the second time she and Theodore had shared such a formal meal. The previous occasion was Valentine’s Day, which had concluded in disagreement.
They quietly consumed their respective dishes, each waiting for the other to initiate a conversation. The atmosphere was somewhat peculiar.
Ariana’s heart raced. She gripped the fork in her hand and sipped her juice as if steeling herself. After swallowing the food in her mouth, she inquired, “May | ask you something?”
