A wedding night Love Affair With The Billionaire

Chapter 26 Unexpectedly Harmonious

Ms. Bell brought over a tray and helped her apply some ointment on her wounds. Her touch was gentle

yet skilled. She applied the ointment on her face softly, making it feel cool and comfortable.

Eliza looked at Ms. Bell, and suddenly thought of something, then she asked her, “Aunt Bell, are you

the one who planted the flowers outside the house?”

Ms. Bell smiled kindly and said, “Mrs. Deleon, why would you think that I am the one who planted it?”

“Because I think you are a delicate woman. Only a delicate person like you can plant such flowers.”

Eliza was a clothes designer, she was very sensitive to color. The reason why that garden of flowers

was so beautiful was because of its perfect unison of different hues. This was an important factor, and

only a thoughtful and careful person could have that attention to detail.

“Mrs. Deleon, you are indeed a smart person. The flowers outside were planted specifically for you. I’m

glad that you like them.”

The flowers were planted specifically for her? Or rather… it should have been for her sister, right? They

must not be aware of the complicated relationship between her and Tanner. They must’ve blindly

assumed that she was the person he liked…

Ms. Bell could sense that Eliza’s mood was a little low, and she quickly finished her work.

“Mrs. Deleon, are you tired? You should rest in your room first, dinner will be ready soon.”

"Okay."

Upon receiving Eliza’s response, Ms. Bell packed up her tray and left.

What was she thinking… Nothing here belonged to her. However… she really liked it. Even though this Content bel0ngs to Nôvel(D)r/a/ma.Org.

was a strange place, it gave her a feeling of home.

She was in a daze for a little while. After that, Eliza heard the sounds of a maid knocking on the door.

"Mrs. Deleon, dinner is ready."

"Okay."

She patted herself on her forehead. "Eliza, wake up!"

After sorting out her emotions, she went downstairs. The maid pulled out a chair for her to sit down.

Tanner had not arrived yet. This was his home, so she thought that she should wait for him. The dishes

on the table looked scrumptious, and she had not eaten anything for the whole day. She was so

hungry…

After waiting for some time, Tanner still did not come down. The fragrance in the room was teasing her

taste buds, but she could keep glancing at the stairs…

She continued to wait, until… finally! She heard his calm footsteps, and she quickly gathered up her

emotions and sat upright.

Tanner came down from the first floor, he saw her sitting there carefully. She did not look at him, nor

had she eaten.

Naturally, he sat down next to her. “What’s wrong? Is the food not to your liking?” He spoke in a steady

and hard tone.

When Eliza saw him sitting next to her, she felt nervous for no reason.

“That’s not it,” Eliza spoke in a low and soft voice, but he could hear it clearly.

“Then, were you waiting for me?” Tanner was sitting upright, with his hands supporting his chin. He

tilted his head slightly to look at her, waiting for her reply.

Eliza looked at his perfect face, and was left speechless for a while. Wait, why was she sitting here but

not eating? She suddenly felt an ambiguous affection rising.

Tanner could tell that she was at a loss, and he probably had an answer in his heart. His icy-cold

countenance softened slightly. Since she was waiting for him to eat, then he decided to forgive her for

her previous actions.

“Let’s eat.” Without waiting for her to speak, Tanner immediately started to eat.

How perfect... She could not think of what to say, so she only followed his words and started to eat.

This was the first time that the two of them were eating together with no one else around. However,

Eliza felt uneasy due to her hunger. Tanner intentionally wanted her to stay closer to him, and that meal

went unexpectedly harmonious.
