When the sound of water in the bathroom stopped , Ariella put the phone back in its place , pretending she hadn't seen anything . Kenton came out , drying his wet hair , droplets falling onto his collarbone . He smiled and asked , " Ella , what do you want to cat tonight ? I'll cook " Ariella casually named a few of her favorite dishes , and Kenton quickly went into the kitchen . She leaned against the doorframe , watching the back that once made her heart flutter . The light cast a soft outline on him . She had seen this scene countless times , but now it felt like a lifetime ago . Amid the sizzling sound of stir - frying , Kenton's phone rang again . Ariella picked it up to hand it to him , but the message that popped up on the screen made her fingers tremble : " Mr. Bennett , did you take several cold showers last night ?

" Ella , something happened at the company , " his voice carried a hint of urgency , " Can you order takeout for dinner ? " Ariella knew this was probably their last meal together in this life , so for the first and only time , she didn't go along with his words . " It's just a meal , only an hour .

Her suitcase broke , so I bought a new one to bring over . She looked at him again . " And you ? What are you doing at the airport ? " Kenton also didn't tell her he was taking Marisa abroad to get married , and gently lied , " Didn't I tell you before ? I'm going on a business trip . " He glanced at his watch , his expression suddenly a bit hurried . " Ella , you should go pick up your friend early . If she arrives and you're not there , it wouldn't be polite . " Ariella knew he was worried about running into Marisa and having trouble explaining , so she cooperatively went into the restroom and lingered for ten minutes .
