Chapter 810 Who Says He Can't Pursue Women
That night, Juniper's mood was completely different from before, and she fell asleep with a smile on her lips.
She even had a sweet dream, and when she woke up, her smile almost reached her eyes.
She patted her face in the mirror, looking radiant and fresh, her complexion was excellent.
When she went out, she carefully chose her clothes, picking a beige blouse that complemented her skin tone, and applied a delicate light makeup.
As soon as she came downstairs, she saw Anthony leaning against his car, holding a bouquet of red roses.
He looked a thousand times more handsome than any prince from a fairy tale. "Morning," he said.
He had also had a good night's sleep, looking as gentle as when she first met him, no, even gentler, with stars in his eyes.
He walked over to her and handed her the flowers.
Juniper held back a laugh and said disdainfully, "Flowers? That's so outdated. Your courting skills are a bit weak."
Anthony scratched his head, "Well... I don't have much experience in courting girls. I'm a novice and need to learn more. Give me a chance, I'll get better and better."
"Seeing as you're sincere, I'll reluctantly accept these flowers."
Juniper said reluctantly, but her heart was already blooming with joy. "Why are you driving yourself today?"
"Well, isn't it good for me to be your driver? Besides, I like having just the two of us, no third party to interrupt, and it's easier to chat."
"What do you want to talk about that others can't hear?" Juniper raised an eyebrow and smirked.
Anthony was stunned for a moment. Was she teasing him?
Was he overthinking it?
While he was pondering, Juniper had already smiled charmingly and walked towards the car.
That smile was like a bright red, lighting up Anthony's world, making his heart flutter and tighten.
From the moment he saw her, he had an overwhelming urge to kiss her.
He couldn't be too forward, Anthony restrained himself. He quickened his pace and opened the car door for her.
"Thank you." She liked gentlemanly gestures.
"How about I pick you up for work every day?" Anthony asked.
"Our companies aren't on the same route, it would take you an extra hour."
"No problem, even if I have to drive around the entire Harmony City, it's worth it to spend an extra minute with you."
Who wouldn't be sweetened by such words? Juniper felt like she had been fed a spoonful of honey.
"When did you learn to sweet-talk?"
"Did I? Is speaking from the heart considered sweet-talking?"
"Well, it's all your tactics." Juniper teased him.
Anthony gave a shy smile.
His handsome profile made Juniper's heart flutter, wanting to pinch him.
The heir of the Eilish family, the president of the Eilish Group, such a powerful figure, who would have thought he was a simple big boy, and especially easy to blush. This contrast was irresistible.
Juniper felt she was easily falling for him.
But no, she had to hold back. She had chased him so hard before, how could she let him catch her so easily?
Stay strong!
She had to stay calm.
"Here, have some breakfast first." Anthony handed her a paper bag.
Juniper opened it, "A sandwich? You made it?"
"Yes."
He had to drive for over half an hour to get here, meaning he had to get up at least by six, and...
"You can cook?"
"Is that strange?"
Juniper thought for a moment and said, "You're already a jack-of-all-trades, so it's not too surprising that you can cook. But being able to eat a sandwich you made yourself, I'm a bit flattered."
Juniper took a bite, it tasted especially good, better than what she made.
It was just an ordinary sandwich, why did it taste so sweet? It didn't even have honey or sugar.
"You used to make me breakfast every day."
"Yeah, and you fed it to the trash can."
Anthony stiffened for a moment, awkwardly saying, "You saw that?"
"Of course, I just didn't want to expose you." Juniper glared at him, "You were so arrogant back then, I worked hard to make you breakfast every morning, and you just threw it in the trash."
"Sorry, I..."
"Forget it, since you ate it later, I'll forgive you. I'm not a petty person." Juniper said generously.
"Thank you. I'll make it up to you every day from now on."
"Are you sure you can keep it up?"
"I can."
Juniper licked the sauce on her lips, "Have you heard this story? A knight courted a princess, waiting for her outside her castle every day, rain or shine, for 99 days."
"On the last day, he gave up, but that day the princess had decided to agree to marry him. Many men claim to be devoted and persistent, but few can actually keep it up."
Anthony smiled and said, "It's only the first day, anything I say now is meaningless. I'm not good with words, I don't know how to sweet-talk or make grand promises, let's leave it to time, okay? Let time prove my sincerity."
Juniper's lips curled up secretly, muttering, "Let's see how long you can keep it up."
The car stopped at a red light.
"Have you eaten?"
"No."
"You only made one sandwich? You idiot, if you made one, why not make two?"
"I didn't think of it." Anthony smiled.
Clearly a genius with an IQ of 200, the president of a multinational group, yet he couldn't think of this, Juniper was both amused and exasperated.
"It's okay, I'll eat at the office." Anthony said.
"Aren't you hungry?"
"Not really, but watching you eat makes me a bit hungry."
"Then I'll give you a bite, because I'm generous." Juniper brought the sandwich to his mouth.
Anthony's ears turned a bit red, he opened his mouth to bite, but she switched sides, "Why can't I bite the side you bit?"
Hadn't they already kissed, and... had sex?
"Lipstick, do you want to get poisoned?" Juniper laughed, Anthony was quite sensitive.
Anthony pursed his lips, "It's okay, I'll be eating your lipstick anyway."
Juniper was stunned, who said he couldn't court women, he was clearly an expert!
