A One Night Stand With My Boss (by Ela Osaretin) novel Chapter 151

After dinner, Ray took the head of the sofa, while Annabelle sat opposite Connor.

Ray smiled at Annabelle and said, “I’m an old man out of touch with today’s world. I hardly know what to talk about with you young folks. Aren’t you bored?”

Annabelle replied with a demure smile, “Grandpa, you’re joking. I learn a lot from our conversations.”

Ray chuckled at her response. “Connor, why don’t you take Annabelle out to the garden for a walk? Go enjoy the moonlight, don’t just sit inside.”

“Of course, Grandpa,” Connor said with a nod.

Connor and Annabelle left the main house and walked to the backyard garden. There was a beautifully designed lily pond there, where the water lilies were in full bloom, reflecting the moonlight in a breathtaking display.

Meanwhile, Ray and Jordan were chatting inside.

Jordan commented, “Connor is a remarkable young man. I’m very pleased with him.”

Ray nodded, “With Annabelle by his side, his future looks even brighter.”

Madison added, “I hope they can support each other and grow together. After all, they are both talented individuals who deserve a bright future.”

Holly and Hugh looked slightly displeased. They had always envisioned Annabelle as their future daughter-in-law and were a bit resentful, but they managed to swallow their grievances and kept smiling.

Peter, sitting on the side, just smiled without saying a word.

Annabelle admired the lily pond and said with a smile, “It’s beautiful here, isn’t it?”

Connor took out a cigarette and asked, “Do you mind?”
