All Novel Sweet
Chapter 234
Leon shook his head, smiling gently.
“I’m not really into all the scheming and plotting that goes with joining a fashion company. I think a simple
life is what I want.”
“But you’re still young. Your mentor would be disappointed to see you settle like this!”
Wanda’s voice held a mix of admiration and concern as she persisted.
She believed Leon’s talent could propel Islo Clothing to international fame.
Despite Wanda’s eamest pleas, Leon’s smile remained unwavering.
“My mentor supports my decision.”
Visibly deflated, Wanda sighed.
“Alright then. I’ll respect your choice as well.”
Carlisle, lounging in his chair, chimed in, “You’re going to stick to what you said earlier, right?”
Leon nodded.
“Of course. I always keep my word.”
A mischievous smile played at the corner of Carlisle’s mouth.
“Then you’re definitely going to lose because we’re never breaking up!”
A blush tinged Wanda’s cheeks. Her heart swelled with a newfound sweetness.
Although Carlisle hadn’t explicitly confessed, his words clearly implied that he embraced her as his girlfriend.
Leon’s grin broadened.
“I hope I’ll be taking your wedding photos in four years!”
His words sparked a vision in both Carlisle and Wanda. Their eyes were drawn to the bridal gowns in the shop window.
Wanda’s eyes lit up, already envisioning herself in a wedding dress.
“Hold on a moment, you guys. I’ll grab you a gift!”
Leon picked up a DSLR camera/from the counter and disappeared into the workroom, closing the door
behind him.
“What kind of gift do you think it is? Wanda asked excitedly.
Carlisle shrugged.
“I have no idea…”
As Wanda admired the stunning photographs adorning the walls, she suddenly turned to Carlisle.
“Where should we go for a walk later?”
Carlisle was caught off guard and hesitated before asking, “Where would you like to go?”
His previous corporate life had left little room for romantic outings. Thus, he felt out of his depth in suggesting locations.
Chewing on her finger thoughtfully, Wanda’s eyes danced with mischief before she suggested shyly, “How
about… Yearning Island?”
“Yearning Island?”
Observing her bashful manner, Carlisle couldn’t resist teasing, “Who are you yearning for?”
Wanda’s cheeks deepened in color, and she playfully brandished her fist. Content is property of NôvelDrama.Org.
“Don’t tempt me to hit you! You can believe it or not!”
“I believe you! I’m sorry!” Carlisle quickly capitulated with a sincere tone.
Smoothing her hair behind her ear, Wanda managed a small smile.
“Seeing how well–behaved you are, I guess I’ll just have to forgive you.”
Almost immediately, Carlisle leaned in again.
He provoked her, “I dare to do it again!”
“You… you dare…”
Wanda stood, hands on hips, her posture defiant.
With a brazen glance, Carlisle commented, “Puff it up a bit more…”
“Pervert!” Wanda shrieked, covering herself.
The door to Leon’s workroom creaked open, and both quickly composed themselves as if their playful exchange had never occurred.
Leon approached with a collection of photos and a broad grin.
“I took some photos of you two while shooting the wedding dresses!”
Carlisle accepted the photos. The photo on the top of the pile caught his eye immediately.
It captured him and Wanda gazing deeply into each other’s eyes, resembling a poignant close–up from a
romantic film.
It pictured a scene of the young couple standing entranced by one another on a bustling street.
In the photo, Wanda tilted her head slightly, meeting Carlisle’s tender gaze as he looked down at her.
Their eyes locked, creating a bubble of intimacy that shut out the bustling street and passersby. The artfully blurred background emphasized how they existed solely for each other at that moment.
Wanda leaned closer, her eyes widening with awe.
“This photo is stunning!“
