Today was Elena's first day at work. She tried to follow the directions of the other staff and managed to do her job quite well.Claire entered the restaurant at the hotel with her assistant, Emma. Her gaze immediately fell on Elena, who was seen serving customers. She was at this hotel for a meeting with her client. After thinking for a long time about which restaurant they would choose for lunch at this hotel, their choice accidentally fell on the restaurant where Elena worked."Oh, so that village girl started working today?" Claire muttered.Emma looked where Claire was staring. She frowned with questions on her mind. "Does Mrs. Claire know that waitress?""Guess, she's someone's new girlfriend." Claire smiled teasingly.Emma narrowed her eyes, watching Elena's face, which was quite clearly visible from her table. Instead of immediately guessing, she actually complimented Elena. "She looks beautiful. Who's her boyfriend, anyway?""She is Leon's girlfriend," Claire answered."What?
Elena was taking additional plates from the cupboard in the restaurant area. She bent down to open the cupboard and took out three plates. When she stood up, she gasped when she saw Noah who was standing next to her."Sir, what can I help you?" Elena asked spontaneously."Hmm, nothing. I came to you to find out who you are," Noah replied casually."My name is Elena, sir," said Elena with a slight nod."Beautiful name. And my name is Noah Hensen. You must already know about me, right?" Noah came from one of the most prominent families in the city, and he was a VIP member at several well-known clubs and restaurants in Auckland. He was sure that a waitress like Elena would know him.Elena shook her head. "Sorry, sir, but I don't know about you," she said.Noah chuckled. This was the first time a woman in this city didn't know him. "Are you kidding me? That's impossible, you must just be nervous because I approached you.""Sir, but I really don't know who you are. Besides, I've only been i
Jasmine had arrived first at the restaurant where they had an appointment. Five minutes later, Leon arrived there. With quick steps, Leon pulled out a chair and sat down."Sorry for making you wait so long," said Leon."It's okay." Jasmine frowned when she saw the sweat dripping along Leon's hairline. "Leon, where have you been? Didn't your driver come here with you?" asked Jasmine in wonder."I came by taxi," answered Leon with a faint smile.Jasmine took an invitation from her bag and handed it to Leon. "I asked you to meet me to give you this."Leon accepted the invitation while narrowing his eyes. "I thought this was a wedding invitation," he teased."Why would you think like that?" Jasmine blushed when she heard about the wedding invitation because she immediately imagined her wedding to Leon in the future."I'm just guessing. Who knows?" uttered Leon while reading the date on the invitation.Silence paused their conversation for a moment. Jasmine felt that this was the right tim
“Oh, I see. Elena, you can go into your room now. We have to rest," said Leon with a smile.“Okay, Leon.”Leon stepped into his room. When Leon entered his room, Elena immediately threw Noah's business card in the trash can in front of her room."It's almost! If Leon sees this, he'll definitely think I've betrayed him." Elena breathed a sigh of relief.***The next day, after dropping Elena off at work and on the way home, Leon stopped at a flower shop. Today was his day off from work. Leon wanted to cook for Elena and prepare a romantic dinner for tonight.Leon took a stalk of lily and smelled its aroma. He exhaled a long breath. Elena liked lilies more than roses. "This flower is Elena's favorite, she will definitely be very happy if I give it to her."Leon called a florist employee and ordered a bouquet of lilies. While he was waiting, Claire had just arrived at the shop to buy flowers. Seeing her ex-husband's presence, Claire was curious.“What is that loser doing here?” Claire mu
Elena rolled her eyes in annoyance. She sighed and turned to the man. With a flat expression, Elena spoke to him, "Mr. Noah, what are you doing here?"Noah snorted while smiling. “This is a public street, am I not allowed to be here?” he replied."Okay, sir, then I have to go now." She spoke as she got up from her seat. Elena was about to move, but Noah suddenly grabbed her wrist.Elena's eyes widened, she looked at Noah with an annoyed expression. “Please, Master, let me go!” she begged.“Why do you call me so formal? Just call me by my name," asked Noah.“Okay Noah, please let me go now. I want to go home!" Elena ordered."I won't let go of your hand until you answer my question." Noah grinned. Seeing Elena, who kept avoiding him, made his curiosity about that woman grow even more. He had never been that enthusiastic about pursuing a woman before, and he didn't even care about Elena's social status.“Quickly say what you want to say!” Elena exclaimed.“Why didn't you contact me? I'v
"It's possible that Leon was drunk and emotional last night, so he didn't want to listen to me," Elena muttered. She came out of her room and looked at Leon's door.“Is he waking up?” she muttered.Elena took a deep breath and dared herself to go to Leon's room. She knocked on Leon's door and spoke in a low tone. “Leon, please open the door!”There was no answer from inside the room. "Is it possible that Leon is still sleeping?" She knocked harder on the door. “Leon, I know you're still angry with me. But I just want to explain everything to you.”“Leon!” Elena turned the doorknob and was surprised to find that the man's bedroom door was unlocked. She immediately went inside and looked for Leon all over the room.“Leon, are you hiding? Please listen to my explanation!” Elena's voice was sobbing, with tears rolling down her cheeks. She sat limp on the edge of Leon's bed. She hoped that Leon would appear in front of her and listen to her explanation.***In a hospital bed, Leon was lyin
Leon was stunned and thinking for a moment. "You are right. But without me, what if something happens to her? She needs me.” He was still angry with Elena, but his worry was much bigger than that.“Sir, your condition is still weak. I'll go to Miss Elena and talk to her.”"But-""Sir, this is for your good."Leon sighed and nodded slowly. "Okay, but don't make her suspicious of my identity!""Okay, young master."***Elena rushed home in the hope that Leon had returned to the apartment. She really wanted to explain everything to Leon and hoped that her relationship with him would return to good condition.Arriving at the apartment, Elena gasped when she saw Mr. Altafini standing in front of Leon's room door. Seeing Elena's arrival, the old man smiled at her."Elena," said the Jensen family butler.“Sir, what are you doing here?” Elena asked while frowning.“I came here to tell you that Leon is at my house now. He won't be able to see you for a month."“A month?” Elena gasped. Her expr
Leon sighed with his hands clenched into fists. The muscles on his face stood out as his sharp hazel eyes stared at Zara. The woman did not hesitate to look down on Leon because, when he was still in college, Leon often borrowed money from her to take Claire to eat her favorite food, and Leon usually returned the money after he got his salary working part time.Seeing Leon, who was just silent, Zara smiled grinningly. She waved her hand to summon a guard. "Because you didn't want to speak honestly, I'm forced to call the guard. As Jasmine's business partner, I won't let her birthday party be ruined by a poor person like you!” she sneered.Leon smiled bitterly. In a casual tone, he replied, “Whatever. Let's see who gets kicked out of this party!”The guard came and asked Zara. "What's happened, Miss?"“Please throw him out! He snuck in here just to grab some food. He is just a poor man, and of course there is no way Jasmine Braun would invite him here!” Zara exclaimed.The man turned h
