The following day at noon, Lenora and Sophia, exhausted from their stroll, dined at a Clusian restaurant.
While waiting for their food, Lenora casually flipped through her phone, a hint of confusion in her voice as she asked, “Has Jonas not arrived yet? Why hasn’t there been any news?”
Based on the flight details provided by Jonas, he should have arrived in Sloummont that morning.
Sophia glanced behind Lenora, a hint of amusement flickering in her eyes. “Perhaps there has been a delay. Let’s wait a bit longer,” she suggested.
“Let’s wait a little longer then.””
Just then, everything before Lenora’s eyes suddenly went dark.
A pair of large hands had covered her eyes.
Without thinking, Lenora instinctively clutched the hands before her eyes.
The owner of the large hand asked mysteriously, “Guess who I am? If you’re right, there’s a gift for you!”
“Jonas, aren’t you
Upon hearing the voice, Lenora immediately recognized it and said with a chuckle, “Jonas, acting a bit childish?”
Jonas released Lenora, feeling annoyed. “Is it that obvious?”
“Of course! Where do you want to sit?” Lenora asked.
There was an empty chair on either side of her and Sophia.
“I’ll sit here,” Jonas replied, motioning to a spot next to Lenora. He wasn’t very familiar with Sophia, so his choice made perfect sense.
Lenora shifted inward, moving her bag from the seat beside her to the empty chair across from her. She glanced at Jonas and asked, “When did you get here? Why didn’t you say anything?”
Jonas was tidying up the tableware before him. “Isn’t this meant to be a surprise for you?”
“How did you manage to find this place?”
Jonas glanced at Sophia, saying, “Just a guess. This is the place I recommended to Ms. Tortell.”
“That’s smart of you. Finished with work?”
Yup. I have no more schedules until New Year’s Day. Everything else is left for next year.”
Upon hearing the words ‘next year, Lenora sighed. “Time flies! There goes another year! By the way, I’ve got a gift for you.”
As she spoke, Lenora pulled out a delicate square box from her bag and placed it on the table. “Open it and see if you like it?”

Jonas shot her a smile. He didn’t rush to open it as he answered, “I also brought a gift for you.”
He pulled out a small box from his pocket.
Such a small box could only contain a ring or a pair of earrings.

Lenora was taken aback. “Why are you bringing me gifts again? It’s not a holiday or any special day!”
Sophia’s gaze flickered between Lenora and Jonas. She loved watching the drama. “Nora,” she said, “Jonas brought this for you. Why don’t you just accept it?”
Jonas nodded in agreement. “Didn’t I say it earlier? Make the right guess, and you’ll get a gift. Well, this is the gift you get for guessing correctly!”
With a playful tone, Lenora jested, “Had I known, I would have guessed wrong.
Jonas said with a smile, “If the guess is wrong, I’ll find another time to give it to you.”
Lenora was contemplating how to decline his gift when Jonas pulled out another identical small square box from his pocket and pushed it toward Sophia. “Ms. Tortell, this is for you as well. This is my first time
s on my part.” traveling with two ladies, so please forgive any
Sophia immediately picked up the box and opened it. She gazed at the exquisite earrings inside, and with a smile, she said, “Sure, sure. Nora, aren’t you going to accept it?”
This time, both of them had gifts. Lenora found it hard to refuse him anymore, so she accepted the gift.. Just as she was about to keep it, Jonas asked, “Aren’t you going to open it?”
Lenora opened the box, and there was a pair of earrings inside, identical in style to Sophia’s.
“Does it look good? I’m not really good at picking out gifts. It took me a long time to settle on this one.” Jonas was slightly worried.
“It’s beautiful,” Lenora said with a warm, charming smile.
To be honest, the earrings looked pretty generic. However, it was a genuine gesture from Jonas, who had picked out the gift himself.
Indeed, the dense Jonas didn’t have the best taste.
Suddenly, Lenora remembered the many pieces of jewelry that Zachary had given her, each one delicate and beautiful.

of them were his choices.
It was Miles, his assistant, who had recommended the popular designs in the jewelry store, so there was no way it could be wrong.
Hence, Lenora didn’t fancy any of Zachary’s gifts, and she had never worn them either.
From Jonas‘ perspective, her eyelashes were dark and long. Her complexion was fair and delicate, so pale that he could make out the fine fuzz on her skin.
Is Zachary around? That can’t be.
From the second floor of the café across from the restaurant, Zachary spotted Jonas. His eyes were so gloomy they could have dripped ink.
Why on earth is Jonas here? He’s like a piece of stubborn gum
