Chapter 67 I Like You
"Yes!"
"Everything wrong is the fault of the villain!" Jacob also didn't expect things to turn out this way. "I promise, this thing will never happen again!"
"Let's find a place to eat first," Lola raised her gaze and looked at the Ferris wheel. "We can go to the Bourbon family group later."
They could only confront it head-on. After all, she didn't want to waste her beautiful attire today... she had confidence that once Phillipe saw her, he would be captivated.
Inside the cabin of the Ferris wheel, Abella looked at the beautiful scenery outside when, a gift was placed in front of her.
"Open it and see," Phillipe's eyes were filled with tenderness.
Abella opened the box, revealing a beautiful diamond bracelet inside. The main stone was a graceful butterfly, symbolizing transformation and rebirth.
On either side of the butterfly were 99 smaller stones, each of them equally sized and tightly set.
The bracelet had a unique design, exuding a touch of luxury and elegance while showcasing a woman's transcendent charm.
Abella looked at the sparkling and dazzling bracelet, and on the back of the clasp, their initials were engraved: A&P Forever.
Was this Phillipe's way of expressing a lifelong commitment?
"Do you like it?" Phillipe observed her reaction with indulgence and said, "Your hands are fair, it will look beautiful on you."
"Why did you give me this?"
"Because you like it," he said, as though there needed to be a reason.
If he had to give a reason, it was because during their last encounter at his grandfather's place, there was a power outage, and he saw her beautiful collarbone that resembled a lifelike butterfly. This sparked his creative inspiration.
He designed and closely oversaw the craftsmanship of this bracelet. Despite having so many production lines under his name, he had never overseen them, but this girl broke his tradition.
"You accepted my grandmother's necklace, so, you should also accept mine. I can't be biased," Phillipe didn't give her a chance to refuse. He took out the bracelet and placed it on her fair wrist.
With its unique design and exquisite workmanship, it looked even more luxurious and elegant when worn.
Phillipe raised a doting smile and said, "It looks good."
No one else could wear it with the same effect. Even his top jewelry spokesperson couldn't bring him the satisfaction and shock he felt at this moment.
His girl looked so beautiful. She looked good even without the bracelet, but it looked even better on her.
A waiter who was serving the dishes couldn't help but secretly admire Abella's appearance—a top-level face and a fresh and elegant temperament.
It was no wonder she had caught Phillipe's attention... They just didn't know who she was since she didn't show any reaction to receiving such a valuable gift...
If it were an ordinary girl, she would have been overjoyed and shedding tears long ago.
To make Phillipe show such a doting gaze and hold a gift so carefully in his hands, this girl's position was not ordinary.
"Thank you," Abella saidas she picked up her knife and fork, eating the steak in front of her.
Phillipe raised a smile. "Let me help you cut it."
He sliced the steak into pieces and placed them one by one onto her plate, his tone gentle. "Eat more."
At this moment, her phone vibrated a few times, and Abella took it out.
"Here, take a look, it's from assistant Joseph.
*Miss Medici, the company cafeteria...shouldn't you take care of it too?*
*The food here is tasteless, but recently it has a strange taste!*
*Although I rarely go to the cafeteria, the complaints about it from the people in the company have been going on for a while.*
Joseph also attached a picture and added: *This cafeteria is rented out by Benjamin's relatives, and they charge us $9 for each meal!*
Abella, with her slender fingers, replied, "It is tasteless."
*These past two days have been relatively better! The kitchen staff knows that you are reorganizing the company, so today they even made fish soup for lunch! Take a look.*
Joseph sent another photo.
Abella glanced at the color of the soup and said, "The color is off."
*Ah? What? Miss Medici, please don't scare me...isn't this fish soup supposed to be milky white?!*
Abella zoomed in on the photo and looked at the other food that Joseph had taken, replying, "Save samples of all the dishes for me. I'll take a look later."
Joseph, felt that the food in front of him wasn't appetizing anymore!
"Busy?" Phillipe noticed that she had been replying to messages the whole time. "Something going on at the company?"
"A little bit." Abella finished her meal and planned to go back to the company cafeteria. "Let's go."
Just as she stood up and took a few steps, Phillipe hugged her tightly from behind.
"It's still early." Phillipe lowered his gaze to admire her beautiful side profile. 'spend a little more time with me."
Abella felt a bit helpless. She had already accompanied him for lunch, wasn't that enough?
"I want you to stay with me." Phillipe held her tightly, breathing in her fragrance. "When I can't see you, I miss you; when I see you, I want to be with you, every moment, I wish you were by my side."
The two waiters and the restaurant manager around them all widened their eyes.
The supposedly cold and ruthless Phillipe, saying such sweet words to a girl. Was it their imagination or were the rumors wrong??
"Someone's watching." Abella's tone carried helplessness. This man seemed to be getting more clingy, and his words were becoming bolder.
Phillipe glanced at the people nearby, and the restaurant manager and two waiters turned away, not daring to pay any more attention to their every move.
"Abella." Phillipe's hands greedily held onto the girl in front of him, his voice seductive. "I want to experience everything that couples do with you."
Abella:...
"Many, many times."
"No time." Lately, she had been so entangled by him that many of her private tasks had been delayed.
"I can wait when you're busy." Phillipe seemed to have expected her refusal, his voice gentle. "Just accompany me when you're free."
"..."
The Ferris wheel slowly ascended to its highest point, and Abella's eyes were filled with the breathtaking view of the city, but in her ears, she only heard one sentence: "I like you." This was from when they first met until now."
"Like." Philippe said.
She was a little stunned and hadn't reacted yet when she heard him say, "I like holding you, like this. I like being with you, liking you as a person, no matter what mood or appearance you have."
John realized it was almost time and planned to come in to pick up Mr. Bourbon and Miss Abella.
However, When he pushed the door open, he saw three people winking at him, meaning "don't disturb Mr. Bourbon's romantic moment."
John seemed to hear Philippe's confession in a daze, unable to believe it, and then looked at the two lovebirds not far away...
"Abella, I like you." Philippe gently kissed her cheek.
Abella could feel her cheeks heating up, and she felt a bit restless, a strange feeling rushing over her heart. Was she falling in love?
If not, why was her heartbeat accelerating?
"I want to be with you every day." Philippe hugged her tightly, gently rubbing his handsome face against her delicate cheek.
Despite such an intimate gesture, Abella didn't refuse or push him away. She just said after a while, "We should go."
It was getting late.
