His Eagle Eyes on Me

"He invited you to have a meal in his office. Isn't that considered a date?" Courtney felt that their relationship, even if not romantic, was definitely not ordinary.NôvelDrama.Org owns this text.

"It's just a meal, it can't be considered a date. Besides, it wasn't his idea to invite me for a meal. It was because I brought him my mom's homemade kimchi, and out of politeness, he invited me to eat. You don't know how awkward it was. There was only one serving of food on the table, and after I arrived, he asked his assistant to buy some food for me," Shelly recalled sheepishly.

"Hahaha! He accepted your kimchi, which means he still has some positive feelings toward you. Otherwise, he wouldn't have taken it. He must have had all kinds of delicacies, so he can't possibly be interested in tasting kimchi," Courtney said.

Shelly had a different opinion. "Is it possible that he has had too many delicacies and wants to try something different, like kimchi?"

"I understand now!" Courtney exclaimed.

Shelly was startled by her sudden outburst. "What do you understand?"

"Hayden has seen many wealthy heiresses and elegant ladies, so when he encounters a woman like you, from an ordinary background, he will be interested. The more you behave differently compared to those heiresses, the more interested Hayden will be in you." Courtney believed she had it all figured out. "Shelly! You have a great chance!"

Shelly was struck by her words. "Courtney, nothing will ever happen between Hayden and I. I'm not exaggerating when I say that every time I see him, my knees go weak..."

"Does your heart race, too?" Courtney continued to probe while eating her fruit.

Shelly nodded. "I was very nervous!"

"Nervousness is a good sign! That means you are deeply in love with him, and you have a crush on him!" Courtney, drawing from her years of experience in the field of love, concluded. "Trust me, you have fallen in love with him!"

Shelly stared at her friend in disbelief.

"Based on Hayden's current attitude

toward you, he should have some

small favorable feelings for you. However, these feelings are not strong enough for him to confess to you. After all, as a successful person, he is cautious in everything he does," Courtney continued analyzing. "He's probably watching you right now!"

Shelly trembled. "Courtney, please stop, or I won't dare go to his company to deliver the cakes next time."

"Can't you have some ambition? If

l.ne

you marry Hayden, we won't have to worry about the business anymore! Courtney began envisioning a successful future. "Who knows? With Hayden's help, our cafe might even grow to be a large chain store."

Shelly could not continue the conversation with Courtney and turned to work on something else.

That Tuesday afternoon, there were not many customers in the cafe, and Shelly was going through the account book.

She had no background in finance but managed to learn just enough after starting a business.

Courtney risked everything to obtain the money to open the cafe, so Shelly wanted to give her best so that Courtney could choose her husband freely.

"Ms. Taylor, a really pretty young lady is looking for you," one of the staff members said with a smile after knocking on the door.

Shelly immediately walked out of her office and spotted Ivy standing in the cafe right away.

"Ivy, why are you here?" Shelly was surprised and instantly assumed that Ivy was there to buy cakes. "What do you want? Consider it my treat."

Ivy did not hesitate to order a cupcake and a milkshake.

"Don't you have class today? I thought your university is located

quite far away from the city. et

Are you

out here on your own?" Shelly asked as she pulled Ivy into her office.

"I came to see you, Shelly." Ivy pulled out a gift box from her bag. "I bought you a gift. I hope you like it."
