Chapter 54

Barbara’s eyes widened slightly. She was unable to stop herself from wondering, ‘What about Alice? Has Theodore really noved on

But to her, a woman like Elians, someone who sold herself for money, was no better than Alice. She thought neither of them deserved to Theodore’s

Meanwhile, Inside Anthony’s car, Lliana took out her notepad and pen once again, ready to get down to business.

Anthony glanced at her, a trace of sympathy filling Isis voice. “Honestly, I can’t believe Theodore just let you go home alone like this.”

“He has trouble with his vision. I understand that,” Ellana replied calmly. Mer a brief pause, she continued, “By the way, Anthony, what specific ideas do you have for your engagement party? Feel free to share them with me

Anthony tapped the steering wheel lightly with his index finger, Wher a moment’s thought, he said, “Alice’s birthday is December 3rd. Her favorite flowers are lilies. She’s an art teacher, specializes in watercolor. So I want something artistic as the theme.”

Eliana mused, “December 3rd? Why does that date sound so familiar? Where have I heard of it before?”

She tapped her pen against her head and then said, “Lilies symbolize purity and

grace. That does suit Ms.

Powell’s image”

Hearing the word purity, Anthony gave a faint, mocking smile, thinking, if Theodore heard that, I wonder what he’d think

Eliana thought for a moment and suggested, “How about this? We can line the ceremony aisle with lies and open the main stage with watercolor art. if Ms. Powell is willing, we can even use her own artwork for it. What do you think?”

Anthony looked at her with renewed interest. “You’ve already got a concept so soon? Are you sure you’re just an assistant?”

Eliana rubbed her nose and flashed an embarrassed smile. “Well, yeah. But I’ve been going through the internship for nearly two and a half years.”

As the conversation continued, Eliana suddenly noticed something strange. “Hey, this isn’t the direction to my house.”

She complained in her mind, “How does someone with GPS manage to get lost?”

Anthony remained calm and replied, “I know. I just wanted to take you to pick up some gifts. If you show up empty–handed, your parents might think the Russell family, or worse, Theodore, neglects you.”

Eliana couldn’t help but admire him, thinking, if Anthony’s emotional intelligence is a perfect 100, then Theodore’s must be negative 1000,”

What she didn’t expect was that Anthony brought her to the most exclusive health supplement store in all of Covenhill. Seeing the sky–high prices–tens of thousands per item–Eliana immediately shook her head.

ong? Worried your parents won’t appreciate them?” Anthony asked.

“What’s wrong!

“No, it’s just. Eliana lowered her voice. “These things are risky now. People are more afraid of getting sick from them than getting healthier. She then pointed across the street and said, “Let’s just get something there instead.”

Anthony followed the direction of her finger, and his expression turned a little strange. “The fruit store?”

“Yep.” Lliana nodded.

Thirty minutes later, outside the Burke Manor, Anthony parked the car just beyond the stone fence. He looked back at her and asked, “Would you like me

to come in with you?”
