Chapter 1591


    Ste spotted the approaching figure and momentarily froze. It was Marshall.


    ‘Okay, fine. I’ll admit he’s good-looking. But Keegan is slightly more handsome than him,I thought Ste.


    She had infrequent encounters with Marshall following the banquet her family held to announce her


    return. Due to a priormitment, he was unable to attend the productunch, but he made sure to


    send two flower baskets in his absence.


    Over a month had passed since then, and Marshall seemed a little slender. His features had be


    more defined, but his smile remained gentle. His appearance suggested he had been at a party. He was


    dressed in a crisp white suit, projecting an image of refined sophistication.


    When Marshall approached the store, Ste greeted him with a smile and said,


    “Mr. Moore, what brings you here?”


    “I attended a wedding nearby and figured I’d stop by since I haven’t been here since you took over. Not


    gonna lie, I was worried you wouldn’t be here,” he exined, offering a bag of candy. “Here are some


    sweets from the wedding. We can share the joy.”


    Ste grabbed a handful of candies and took one for herself. She passed the rest to Ka and said,


    “The flower baskets were more than enough, considering your busy schedule. I’m afraid I would have to


    pay you for your time if you were to show up to the grand reopening.”


    Marshall joined in the banter, “Perhaps you could treat me to a meal to make up forst time.”


    Ste paused, suddenly recalling the time when she had just divorced, and Marshall had helped her with


    the defamationwsuit. She offered to treat him to a meal aspensation. However, due to Keegan’s


    antics, they never got to enjoy it. It had been so long since then. Ste did not expect Marshall to still


    remember.


    “Alright. It’s a deal,” sheughed.


    Ste turned to Ka and said, “Ms. Wilson, this is my- My partner’s childhood friend, Mr. Moore. He’s a


    pro in thew field. If you ever have legal concerns, he’s the man to go to. You’re practically guaranteed


    a win in anywsuit thates your way.”


    She then looked at Marshall and continued, “Mr. Moore, this lovelydy here is Ms. Wilson, the daughter


    of Mark Wilson from Mark Energy. She’s also a friend of mine. You two should get acquainted while I go


    settle some stuff.”


    Ka confidently extended her hand, “Hello, I’m Ka.”


    Marshall greeted her with a brief handshake. “Marshall,” he said and stared at Ste while Ka sized


    him up.


    Ste was wrapped up in her conversation with the store manager as Marshall stood by patiently. He


    was watching her with an indescribable emotion behind his eyes.


    Previously, the Moore family had arranged for an acquaintance to introduce Ka to Marshall, hoping to


    set them up. Her parents had a favorable impression of the Moores, so they approved the request


    without consulting her.


    Although they did not push her to date Marshall, they hoped she would give him a chance.


    Ka’s parents doted on her greatly, and she did not want to upset them over a small matter. So, she


    agreed.

    On the day of the blind date, Ka’s car broke down on the way. She called for a mechanic and took a


    cab to her date. She arrived at the coffee shop a little after the scheduled time. That was when a waiter


    handed her a note that read, “I don’t like people who arete. I’m afraid we’re ipatible.”


    That incident infuriated Ka.


    She could not help but feel irritated when she realized the guy she deemed attractive earlier was the


    same person who wrote that note. However, she remained silent.


    Once Ste finished her conversation with the store manager, she walked over and said, “Give me ten


    minutes. The three of us can go out for a meal after I attend to something upstairs.”
