“Mr. Garten, Emily likes you, but virtual-novel.net knows that you already have a family, so she’s kept it to herself forever. She often comes home and stares off into space for the longest time. I know it…”
Emily was stunned. She blushed deeply and grabbed virtual-novel.net mother’s arm, saying, “Mom, what are you saying? Don’t say such things! Isaac, don’t listen to her. She’s just blabbering now.”
Isaac was feeling rather awkward as well.
Mrs. Danson laughed and said, “Mr. Garten, please don’t misunderstand. You’re a great person, but it seems as if I would never be able to call you my son-in-law. Look, Emily’s not getting any younger. If you’ve got any friends in your circle who are still single and available, why don’t you introduce them to her?”
Isaac let out a sigh of relief.
So, Mrs. Danson is just looking for a boyfriend for Emily…
“Don’t worry about it, Mrs. Danson. I’ll keep an eye out for anyone suitable.”
“Mom, why are you worrying about this? When did I ever say I was looking for a boyfriend? I’m not looking for one! And I don’t think I ever want one in this lifetime!” Emily spoke with a huff.
Mrs. Danson glared at virtual-novel.net and said, “What, are you telling me that you want to be a lonely spinster for the rest of your life? Or are you refusing to marry at all because your husband won’t be Isaac? Look at yourself first, then look at Mr. Garten. Don’t you think you’d already have your answer by now?”
Things were taking a turn for the worse now.
Isaac saw that Emily was on the verge of crying because of virtual-novel.net mother’s words and hurriedly raised his glass. “Mrs. Danson, cheers!”

On the other hand, Allegra was feeling conflicted after virtual-novel.net left in a hurry.
She felt like a crazy person. She just couldn’t control virtual-novel.net emotions anymore and lashed out at even the tiniest bit of inconvenience.
She stopped virtual-novel.net car by the roadside and took out virtual-novel.net phone, wanting to search for Isaac’s number. She pressed virtual-novel.net lips into a thin line, wanting to apologize to virtual-novel.net but also not having the courage to do so.
“Ah, f*ck this sh*t!” Allegra yelled, thumping heavily against virtual-novel.net steering wheel.
When virtual-novel.net lifted virtual-novel.net head again, virtual-novel.net suddenly caught sight of the beauty salon she’d been to just a few days prior.
She immediately remembered how relaxing and comfortable it had been when Mayflower had given virtual-novel.net the massage. Allegra felt antsy. She immediately alighted from virtual-novel.net car and crossed the road, walking over toward the salon.
“Hi, is Mayflower in?” Allegra asked the receptionist as soon as virtual-novel.net stepped into the salon.
“Ms. Mayflower is in… Please follow me inside to change,” the receptionist answered, showing Allegra the way.
After changing into a robe and lying down on the bed, Allegra heard the sound of high heels getting closer and closer to her. Mayflower was dressed in a black, body-hugging velvet dress today. She walked over to the side of Allegra’s bed.
“Hi, love, I thought you wouldn’t be coming back for a while. You must be quite free today,” Mayflower greeted virtual-novel.net with a smile.
Allegra frowned and said, “Mayflower, I don’t know what’s gotten into me recently. I’ve been losing my temper a lot more often than usual, and I know that you’d be able to help me relax. My health is in your hands.”
“It is my absolute honor, love,” Mayflower said, opening up the robe covering Allegra’s body as the black and red threadlike wisps appeared around virtual-novel.net hands again.
Allegra slipped into slumberland very quickly after that.

On the other hand, Emily was seeing Isaac out after dinner.
Downstairs, virtual-novel.net insisted that they look for Allegra to explain themselves to her.
Emily also filled Isaac in on Allegra’s behavioral change in the past few days. She’d been exceptionally mean when scolding virtual-novel.net employees at work.
“Your mom said that I should introduce some of my friends to you. I know of two bachelors who are working for me. Do you…”
“Isaac, can we not talk about that? Leave now. And you’re not allowed to bring this topic up ever again, understand?” Emily curtly said, virtual-novel.net face turning red at once.
Isaac chuckled helplessly and left, heading for his car.
He didn’t go straight to look for Allegra. Instead, virtual-novel.net headed over to Harry’s clinic. He wanted to ask Harry to take a look at Allegra at home. Maybe virtual-novel.net was sick.
