Chapter 296
Culinary Paradise was known for its signature dishes and take–out, but since the food needed to be freshly made, Emily had to wait for a while outsid. In the meanwhile, she took the opportunity to finish her dinner.
Upon entering the hotel lobby, a waiter handed her the packed food with a reminder, “Two boxes contain pastries. Make sure they don’t get wet!” Emily nodded with a smile and placed everything neatly in the take–out box.
After packing everything, she slung it over her shoulder and turned to walk out. Just then, she glanced towards the window and locked eyes with Charlie, who was staring right at her.
Charlie gave her a gentle smile.
Emily wanted to say hi and remind him to take the money, but seeing two well–dressed men sitting next to him, who appeared to be Charlie’s friends, she merely nodded at him before quickly walking away.
During the time when Charlie stayed at The Royal Mansion, the two of them were very close, chatting about everything.
However, now that they hadn’t seen each other for a while, the familiarity had faded, and it felt like they were just casual acquaintances. Emily felt this was normal, as she and Charlie were from different worlds, but not the same kind of people.
As soon as she stepped outside, she was caught off guard by the sudden rain.
Emily wanted to take shelter from the rain outside the hotel, but soon she received a call from a customer urging her to deliver the takeout quickly, or they would leave a bad rating.
Left with no choice, Emily removed her jacket, wrapped it around the take–out box, and braced herself to run through the rain.
By the time she reached her vehicle, she was already drenched.
She fastened the take–out box securely on top, ensuring it wouldn’t get wet, before wiping the rain from her face and setting off on her delivery.
Charlie was watching from the window. Under the dim street lights, the rain shattered the shadows cast by the lights on the ground. The girl was soaked, the rain pouring over her head as she straddled her bike. She wobbled for a moment, almost falling over.
But she managed to regain her balance and rode off.

Hey Admin, please ,can you update the novel regularly?...
It’s really annoying to have these times of no updates. Is it because you’re giving us 6 updates at a time, when the site states 2 updates/daily…therefore 3 days of no updates. Hope all is well with you and your family and thank you for writing a great story....
