With no more obstacles from Omar, Jonathan and Reina finally reconciled and were as close as ever. This time, there was no set deadline for their reconciliation. They enjoyed their relationship just like any normal boyfriend and girlfriend, savoring the sweetness of love.
Meanwhile, preparations for Liam and Cynthia’s wedding were also in full swing. As the wedding date approached, Liam became busier by the day. He would leave for the office before Cynthia woke up and return late in the evening after she had fallen asleep. They even had no time to make
out.
Seeing how exhausted Liam was, Cynthia, worried, found a moment to intervene, “Honey, you can leave the wedding arrangements to the wedding planner. You don’t have to oversee everything. I don’t want you to be too tired.” Hearing this, Liam just gently patted Cynthia’s head and smiled faintly, his deep eyes filled with love.
“I promised to give you an unforgettable wedding. I don’t actually feel tired. Every day, watching the progress of the wedding arrangements, I feel energized,” Liam responded.
Cynthia was completely charmed by Liam’s words, but she couldn’t help but worry. So, she suggested, “Then I’ll join you.”
“As the soon–to–be bride, you just need to take care of yourself in these two days. Be the most beautiful bride on the big day,” Liam said. He pinched Cynthia’s nose playfully, his voice soft and charming.
Defenseless against Liam’s tenderness, Cynthia could only rely blissfully on him, nodding shyly.
In the following days, whenever Cynthia had free time, she would visit Isabella or help take care of Theodore. Now, Theodore, with constant repetition from Cynthia, finally managed to say “auntie
Every time the child spotted Cynthia, he would run over on his little legs, saying, “Auntie, hug.” Cynthia would quickly bend down to lift him up and twirl around, making him giggle endlessly.
Isabella handed the company back to Anthony these days, enjoying some relaxation at home. More accurately, she was threatening Anthony to return to the company.
Since recovering from his illness, Anthony had been sticking to Isabella all day. The staff at the company and William were anxious as he refused to take charge of the company. Eventually, he even considered handing the company directly to Isabella, with all the necessary paperwork prepared,
Isabella knew that Anthony’s actions were to protect himself, but she was never a career–oriented. person. She wouldn’t have taken this position unless it was absolutely necessary, so she sternly refused. She even threatened that if Anthony didn’t return to the company, she would take her child and leave for the border, never to return. This scared Anthony enough to begrudgingly return to the company.
Now, Cynthia and Isabella would spend every day together. Cynthia thought Liam had been working hard these days and she couldn’t help in that aspect. Since she was free as well, she decided

to learn how to be a good wife and mother. So, the two sisters, along with Theodore, spent most of their time in the kitchen.
With Isabella’s patient guidance, Cynthia’s cooking skills finally showed some improvement. Though not on par with experts, it was passable.
When Cynthia saw Isabella giving her a thumbs up, her eyes lit up. She quickly removed the forks in Isabella and Theodore’s hands and then packed the food into a thermal container.
Theodore pouted unhappily as he watched his food being taken away, tears welling up in his big eyes. Cynthia realized she had been too harsh and hurriedly squatted down, gently patting his head and soothing him.
“Theo, my cooking skills can hit or miss. I can rarely make something palatable, so don’t snatch from your uncle. If you want to eat, ask your mom to cook for you. She cooks better than I do.” But Theodore shook his head with a mournful expression when he heard this.
“Don’t mind him, Cynthia. Quickly take the food to your Liam before it gets cold, Isabella spoke up. Cynthia hesitated for a moment but eventually couldn’t bear it. She opened the food container and shared some of the dishes inside.
Today was just a trial run, and to avoid wastage in case it didn’t turn out tasty, they had made very little. Surprisingly, the dishes tasted quite good. Finally, with half the container of dishes in hand, Cynthia headed out joyfully towards the Sullivan Group.
It was lunchtime, and employees in Sullivan Group were just leaving the company. They greeted Cynthia respectfully when they saw her. Cynthia smiled back and took the CEO’s exclusive elevator to the top floor.
She noticed Liam’s office was still brightly lit, indicating that he was still working. She immediately felt sorry for him. Gently opening the office door, as soon as she peered in, her gaze met his.
Their eyes locked for a moment, and Liam first appeared perplexed, then a tender smile spread across his face as he stood up and strode over to embrace Cynthia. “Why have you come?”
“I brought you food,” Cynthia nestled into his arms and lifted the food container, then proudly raised her head. “I made this, you know.”
Exiting his embrace, she led Liam to the sofa and placed the meal in front of him, her face full of expectation.
Liam didn’t expect much from Cynthia’s cooking skills, but faced with her hopeful gaze, he bravely took a large bite. The next moment, Liam subtly raised his eyebrows.
“How is it?” Cynthia stretched out her neck eagerly, her eyes shining brightly.
Liam chewed for a moment, then took another big bite. “My dear Cynthia is indeed clever. Your culinary skills have improved so much. After speaking, he continued to have several more big bites, as if he were savoring a delicacy.

After the meal, Cynthia didn’t linger at the company for long. As she was about to drive to the basement, she happened to spot Anthony’s figure.

“What is he doing here?‘ Cynthia thought to herself. She watched as he took the elevator to Liam’s floor, feeling puzzled. However, considering that they might have some cooperation, she decided not to follow and drove away directly.
While waiting at a traffic light, she happened to see a beauty advertisement on a distant electronic screen. The ad reminded Cynthia of something. There was a scar on Isabella’s face and it hadn’t been there for many years. Perhaps she could try removing that scar.
Thinking quickly, Cynthia turned her car around. She bought some medicinal herbs from an herbal store and went straight back to Regalian Garden.
For the next two days, Cynthia devoted all her energy to preparing scar removal medicine. Once it was ready, she hurriedly took the medicine to Isabella.
Although Isabella had lived with this scar for two years and had grown accustomed to it, she wanted to remove it to make herself more beautiful. So, she was quite hopeful about this scar removal
intment.
Over the following days, Isabella diligently applied the ointment every day, and gradually, the scar on her face began to fade with each passing day.
