Coming out of the movie theater, Lenora brushed back a strand of hair by her ear and asked, Do you still have any of the materials that were deemed noncompliant at your place?” 

Connor gave a nod. There’s still a batch at home. We were planning to send it to the property owner’s residence, but it got reported before we could.” 

Then let’s go back to your place to get some.” 

Alright.” 

The two arrived at the parking lot. Lenora took the driver’s seat while Connor settled into the passenger 

seat

After fastening his seatbelt and watching Lenora start the car, Connor suddenly felt a bit awkward. Lenora, maybe I should drive.” 

Lenora turned her head and smiled. I’ll drive. Your foreign license needs to be approved before it can be used here in our country.” 

I’ll go apply for that another day,Connor said

Half an hour later, Lenora parked near Connor’s residential area in a public parking spot. Go grab itI’ll wait here.” 

Then wait for me. I’ll be out in no time,he said

After finishing his words, Connor unbuckled his seatbelt and got out of the car

Just as he was about to close the car door, Lenora called out to him again, Oh, and don’t mention me to your parents.” 

Connor paused for a moment, then instinctively asked, Why? You’ve done me such a huge favor, Lenotá I was actually hoping to invite you over for dinner at my place.” 

The real reason was that she worried Richie might grow suspicious if he learned of her identity and became wary

However, she couldn’t voice these thoughts. Lenora remained calm and collected, looking at Connor with. a steady gaze and a sparkle in her eyes. It’s because I’ve been divorced beforeI think most parents wouldn’t want their child to be with a woman who’s older and has been divorced.” 

That was especially the case since Connor was considered quite outstanding

Suddenly, it was as if Connor realized something. The smile on his lips grew wider, and he looked like a big puppy, showing his cute little canine teeth. I understand, Lenora. I swear I won’t mention you to them!” 

After saying his piece, he waved cheerfully at Lenora and headed inside in high spirits

Didn’t her words mean that she might also like him and have plans to be with him

Connor was so happy he felt like he was floating as he walked

However, what Lenora said was right. His mother likely wouldn’t agree to them being together

His mother was rather conservative and had recently been arranging blind dates for him through connections, all with women in fields like teaching or medicine

However, he wasn’t going to yield

+10 Bonus 

Bringing up Lenora with his parents at this point wasn’t the best timing. If his mother sensed anything unusual, she might just force him into more blind dates, thereby limiting his freedom

It would be better to wait until his relationship with Lenora was secure before mentioning her

Richie’s construction team was reported for using substandard materials, specifically synthetic resin emulsion wall paint and polyethylene pipes

Connor grabbed a portion of the paint and some pipes, then jogged out of the neighborhood and put them in the back seat of the car

He pulled open the car door and slid into the passenger seat, catching his breath. As he buckled his seatbelt, he said, My parents were asking about you, Lenora.” 

Lenora’s hands that were resting on the steering wheel unconsciously clenched. Oh?” 

Connor grinned. Good thing you reminded me ahead of time. I told them you’re a helpful colleague of mine.” 

With a smile, Lenora said, That’s not exactly a lie. You could say we were former colleagues.” 

Connor chuckled, his eyes sparkling like stars. That’s exactly what I was thinking.” 

With a light chuckle, Lenora then drove off to the testing facility

After handing over the materials to the inspection personnel, Lenora and Connor left the testing facility

Connor was not ready to leave just yet. He pointed and said, Lenora, I recall there’s a newly opened cake shop in that mall over there. How about we go take a look?” 

Meeting Connor’s hopeful gaze, Lenora gently nodded in response

The two of them walked side by side at a leisurely pace, gradually making their way toward the nearby mall

While pedestrians on the street hurried by, the two of them strolled casually forward, chatting as they 

went

Suddenly, Connor’s swinging arm brushed against Lenora’s hand

Subconsciously, Lenora pulled her hand back a bit before continuing forward, casually mentioning, I’ve tried cakes from several cake shops around Goldthorn Mall” 

Connor lowered his gaze, not really paying attention to what Lenora was saying

His ears tinged a faint red, and he closed his eyes for a moment, mentally cheering himself on. Suddenly, he took hold of Lenora’s soft, slender hand

His hand was one size larger than hers, enveloping hers tightly

As the sensation of his skin touching hers registered, Lenora tensed, instinctively wanting to pull away

Yet, she simply held herself back

Lenora pressed her lips together, lowered her head, and said nothing 

At that moment, she only felt awkward, as if she were sitting on pins and needles

An image of Zachary inexplicably flashed across her mind, adding a touch of heaviness to her heart

Why did he come to mind again

She must have truly lost her mind

Her emotions were in turmoil, but she didn’t want Connor to notice, so she had no choice but to lower her head and conceal her feelings

Connor said with a smile, Lenora, your hands are a bit cold. Next time you go out, wear a bit more. Don’t catch a cold.” 

Lenora remarked, It might be due to my constitution. My hands are always cold in winter.” 

Then, every winter from now on, let me be the one to warm your hands.” Connor’s voice was incredibly tender

Lenora remained silent

She really didn’t know what to say

Connor simply assumed she was feeling embarrassed

That was fine. Everything was progressing in a good direction

The two of them arrived at the cake shop

Looking at the array of cakes in the display case, Connor saw the sparkle in Lenora’s eyes and asked, Lenora, which one do you fancy? The black forest cake?”
