Chapter 144 Happiness Arrived Unexpectedly

Madelyn looked at him with satisfaction, a hint of smugness in her expression. “I told you, didn’t I? It’s really delicious."

After saying that, she wanted to take a spoonful for herself, but she found that the spoon was nowhere to be seen.

“Huh, where’s my spoon? It was just here a moment ago,” Madelyn said, looking around curiously.

Suddenly, her gaze fixed, falling upon Sebastian’s hand.

Sebastian took my spoon! Madelyn was instantly dumbstruck, standing frozen on the spot. She stared at the spoon in disbelief for a long time, then foolishly turned her gaze toward Sebastian. Could this be just a dream? Usually, Sebastian would make a point to keep his distance from me. Rarely did he initiate any interaction, let alone any intimate contact. But now, he has actually used my spoon to eat!

Madelyn was in disbelief. Doesn’t he mind at all? This action is akin to an indirect kiss, no?

Sebastian seemed oblivious to what Madelyn was thinking. He scooped another spoonful and fed it into his mouth, calmly praising, “Lydia, your culinary skills have certainly improved.”

Upon hearing these words, Lydia was immediately filled with joy. A radiant smile spread across her lips.

It was important to note that Sebastian was usually reserved and rarely spoke, let alone give out compliments.

Unable to contain her laughter, Lydia said, “There’s another one inside. Since you like it so much, I might as well bring it out.”

After speaking, she went into the kitchen and brought out another serving, which she placed on the table.

Of course, there was also another spoon.

Madelyn felt a peculiar thrill in her heart, though she didn’t show it. Instead, she expressed her joy by saying, “This is fantastic. We’re truly in for a treat today.”

After saying that, she picked up the new spoon and continued eating, acting as if she was completely unaware of anything. She seemed remarkably composed.

While eating, she couldn’t help but steal glances at Sebastian.

Every time Sebastian took a bite with that spoon, Madelyn felt an extra bit of sweetness in her heart, as if she was on the brink of being overwhelmed by the sweetness.

In the end, after finishing the snacks, Lydia joyfully cleared away the plates.

Suddenly, Sebastian asked, “Do you want to have dinner together tonight?”

Upon hearing these words, Madelyn was filled with surprise. Was Sebastian speaking to me? Did he invite me to go out for a meal?

“Yes! I want to!” Madelyn suddenly came to her senses and vigorously nodded. How could I possibly pass up such a golden opportunity!

A slight smile played at the corners of Sebastian’s mouth when he heard those words. “It’s five-thirty now. We’ll leave in half an hour. It gets chilly at night. Remember to dress warmly,” he said.

With that, he turned around and ascended the stairs.

Madelyn stood still, gazing longingly at his retreating figure. Suddenly, she leaped up in a burst of ecstatic joy. How! Happiness has come so unexpectedly! This is simply fantastic!

Half an hour later, Madelyn had applied a touch of light makeup, and she was dressed in a pale blue long dress complemented by a lace jacket of the same color. She wore petite, high-heeled shoes and let her glossy, black curls cascade down. Standing in the living room, she exuded an aura of elegance.

When Sebastian descended the stairs, his eyes lit up.

In reality, her necklace outshone her attire.

The necklace had been meticulously crafted under Sebastian’s orders and was then placed beside Madelyn’s bed.

Unexpectedly, Madelyn actually put it on that day.

Her slender, fair neck was adorned with a necklace shaped like a planet. From different angles, the necklace refracted various hues, a sight so beautiful that it was impossible to look away.

He couldn’t help but lightly compliment, “It suits you very well.”

Upon hearing the words, Madelyn was taken aback, looking down at her neck. Only then did she realize he was referring to her necklace, causing her cheeks to flush with embarrassment.

After that, the two of them left the house hand in hand.

That evening, he brought her to a five-star Epean restaurant for dinner.

The gentle melody of the piano played softly. Even the air seemed to carry an aura of elegance and romance.

Sebastian had reserved the most luxurious private room there.

As soon as Madelyn stepped through the door, she was taken aback by a pleasant surprise. Is this a candlelit dinner? Is this really true?

Madelyn turned around, gazing at Sebastian, suddenly feeling the surrealism of it all.

Surprisingly, Sebastian responded with a gentle smile. “Please, have a seat."

There and then, it became even less real.

In her mind, Madelyn wondered if this could also be a form of compensation from Sebastian.

However, regardless of whether it was compensation or not, Madelyn could sense something. After that...

Without giving it much thought, Madelyn cheerfully took a seat.

Likewise, Sebastian, the gentleman he was, took a seat across from her.

At that moment, the cellist and pianist on one side began to play a beautiful melody.

Under the candlelight, the features of the two individuals appeared even more profound.

Madelyn was stunningly beautiful, radiating a captivating glow, while Sebastian was so handsome, it was almost inhuman.

Upon looking, it was indeed a scene straight out of a romantic drama.

The two of them clinked their glasses together, thus commencing their romantic candlelit dinner.

Later on, the two had finished their meal.

Madelyn didn’t want to go back, so she casually strolled around, holding Sebastian’s hand.

As the evening breeze blew, Madelyn suddenly let out a sigh. “It seems like fall is fast approaching…”

Sebastian looked at her and asked nonchalantly, “Are you cold?”

Madelyn shook her head, a playful smile on her face. “I’m not cold, just a bit chilly. It’s nothing,” she said.

After speaking, she casually glanced at the display window next to her. Suddenly, her gaze froze.

In the display window, a mannequin was adorned with a gray coat. The design was minimalist yet uniquely stylish.

Madelyn’s eyes were immediately drawn to that piece of clothing. She couldn’t help but exclaim excitedly, “That coat is so beautiful!”

No sooner had the words left her lips than she took off running inside.

The speed was simply faster than a rabbit.

Sebastian couldn’t hold on to her in time, so he silently followed her in.

Upon entering, Madelyn rushed over to the coat, examining it from front to back. She then reached out to feel the quality of it.

“Miss, you have such a good eye! This piece is the latest arrival in our store,” said the well-dressed shop assistant, approaching her.

“Really? Can I try it on?” Madelyn was so thrilled that she couldn’t wait to put it on.

In no time at all, Madelyn emerged wearing that gray overcoat.

The shop assistant couldn’t help but praise after taking a look, “Miss, you look absolutely stunning in this outfit. It’s as if it was tailor-made just for you!”

“Then I’ll take this one,” Madelyn decisively said.

Sebastian, trailing behind her, saw her happiness and couldn’t help but let a faint smile grace his lips.

Following that, he instinctively went over to pay the bill.

“Hello, the total comes to thirteen thousand and four hundred,” the shop assistant said.
