Early the next morning, Charlie was getting ready to head out to the market when his phone rang. It was Aurora, the fiery hot pepper from the Quinton family.


    Aurora’s yful voice came through the line. “Master Wade, are you at home right now?”


    “Yes, I am. What can I do for you?” Charlie replied.<fn5a25> This text is hosted at find(?)ovel</fn5a25>


    “My dad asked me to deliver some medicinal ingredients to you, and he mentioned it’s for Miss Moore. Is this a good time for me toe over? I can swing by if it’s convenient for you.”


    With ire busy with her new office and Jacob out with ine at the Thompson First mansion to oversee the renovation progress, Charlie was alone at home. He responded, “Sure,e on over.”<h3 style="background-color:DodgerBlue">


    “Great! I’ll be there shortly!” Aurora chirped back.


    Just a few minutester, Charlie heard a knock at the door.


    He opened the door to find Aurora standing there, looking stunning in a beige dress. Her long wavy hair flowed gracefully over her shoulder, and a soft pink blush adorned her cheeks. She carried arge piece of luggage, adding to her striking appearance.


    “Mas… Master Wade, hi… I… I’m Aurora Quinton. Do you remember me?” she stammered, clearly nervous.


    Aurora had tossed and turned all night, her father’s words about Master Wade’s importance to their family’s future echoing in her mind. Charlie was the only person she could think about.


    As a young woman, she found herself drawn to the idea of a handsome, wealthy, and capable husband—qualities she believed Charlie possessed in abundance. Looking around, she realized that no onepared to him; he was truly the ideal candidate for a husband!


    Even without her father’s encouragement, Aurora was already captivated by Charlie.


    Charlie, on the other hand, was puzzled by her nervousness. Thest time they met, she had been the bold and fiery youngdy eager to challenge him. Now, it was as if the spirited hot pepper had transformed into a gentle and delicate cucumber!


    Curiously, he asked, “What’s with you today? You seem so different from your usual self.”


    Aurora shyly replied, “Master Wade, I’m really sorry for being so arrogant and ignorantst time. I hope you can forgive me…”


    Charlie smiled, “Wow, impressive.” He then turned and added, “Don’t just stand there;e inside.”


    Aurora nodded, her anxiety palpable as she carefully dragged the heavy luggage into the house.


    Charlie was surprised to see her struggling with the load. Despite being fit and athletic, it was clear that the luggage was quite heavy.


    “What’s in there? Why is it so heavy?” he asked, genuinely curious.


    “These are the medicinal ingredients my father prepared for you. They’re top-quality and impossible to find anywhere else in the world!” she exined.


    With that, she set the luggage down in the living room and opened it.
