Christopher had planned to bring out a bottle of well-aged red wine,
but Sophie kept serving Bella juices. Bella had drank orange juice, grape juice, pineapple juice, and
other varieties of squashed fruits.
After dinner, Zelda took Sophie elsewhere for other activities to give

Belials totood up straight and cheekily looked at Christopher through the magnifyiving glass. She
blinked. “Are you an antique collector? Or are you juststabllecting for fun? If you’re a real collector, you

Christopher smiled and spoke in a soft and alluring tone. “I’m only generous to two people. That’s you
and Chairman Thompson.”
Bella’s heart skipped a beat, and she pursed her lips.
Christopher and Justin were two extremes. The former was a sweet
talker, while the latter would not have anything nice to say even with a
gun to his head.
“Wyatt is a greedy man. If he knows you own such treasures, he’ll
certainly take your generosity for granted.”
“Chairman Thompson is welcome to take anything he likes. I don’t have much to offer, but if there’s
anything that catches his eye, I
won’t be stingy with him.” Christopher’s tone could not be more

Bella felt.
She turned over to meet his burning gaze.
Bella murmured, “You…”
The man’s heart raced, and his breathing turned heavy.
“Your glasses are foggy. Can you even see the snow?” Bella asked in
a serious tone.
Christopher was taken aback, but he smiled faintly, not hiding the
affection in his eyes.
‘Bella, do you know? There’s a saying in Sentania that couples who experience the first snow together

Not minding her frozen, stiff cheeks, Bella reached out to capture the
snowflakes. Her face was alight with joy.
Christopher, stirring with feelings, was tempted to grab her hand and
never let her go.
A disruptive phone call shattered this joyful moment. Bella glanced at her phone screen and frowned.
