Daniel opened the car door diligently and said to Doris with a bow, âGet in. Watch your head.â
âIâll sit in the backseat.â Doris said, âIâm afraid I might distract you while driving.â
âIâm not your driver.â Daniel teased, âYou and I are on the same level, so come in front.â
Doris could only sit in the co-driver seat.
Waylon had fetched her several times.
Even if Waylon was driving his car, she was still sitting in the backseat.
Waylon had never minded being her driver.
âWell then.â Doris sat in the co-driver seat.
Daniel was about to put on the seatbelt for Doris, but she had already done it herself.
Daniel could only retrieve his hand.
âYou are beautiful today.â Daniel put on his seatbelt and started the engine, âMore beautiful than ever before. Iâm honored.â
âWe are just friends.â Doris smiled. âYou donât have to flatter me like this.â
âIâm just telling the truth.â Daniel took another glance at her.
âDo you not know that you are beautiful?â Daniel asked in disbelief.
Why does she have so low confidence in herself?
ââ¦â Doris hesitated a little. People say Iâve been pretty since I was young. How could I not know about this?
But whatâs the use of being pretty?
Hard work in studying, working, and living my life are fundamental truths.
Being pretty only makes me look better Half an hour later, the car reached the wedding venue, Nimbus Hotel.
Daniel parked the car and got out to open the door for Doris.
Just as Doris stepped out, a black Maybach had just parked beside her.
Waylon came down from the co-driver seat, and Lily was sitting in the backseat.
Lily was initially waiting for Waylon to open the door for her.
But after waiting for two seconds, Waylon didnât seem like opening the door for her.
Lily didnât dare to delay anymore.
If she waited any longer, she was afraid that Doris didnât see her coming out of Waylonâs car.
âDaniel! Doris!â
Lily warmly greeted in time, âGood evening!â
Doris saw Lily tenderly hug Waylonâs arm beside the Maybach.
Lily was wearing a light yellow fitted long skirt, looking especially enchanting.
Waylon was still wearing the white suit as usual.
But he was wearing a black silk shirt inside with a narrow white tie.
Subtly luxurious, restrained yet noble.
This black and white combination somewhat harmonized with Dorisâ skirt dress.
They seemed to be wearing couple outfits.
Doris didnât expect her clothes would match Waylonâs attire.
Lily showed a gloomy face after seeing this.
There was no way to explain this.
âMs. Thomas, Mr. Waylon.â Doris greeted politely.
Lily nodded coldly unlike her previous warm greeting.
Waylon responded with a âhmmâ indifferently, then he said, âDid you inform Emma about your leave?â
âI did.â Doris pursed her lips, âI wonât affect my work.â
âYou better donât forget to check your kid.â Waylon said indifferently, âDonât forget that Nessa was having a fever last night.
⦠Doris felt awkward, âUhm, Nessa is fine today.â
âThatâs good.â Waylon showed a gloomy face, âLetâs get in. We are blocking the entrance.â
Lily took a glance at Doris, then she walked in while hugging Waylonâs arm.
They were together last night?
Otherwise, how did Waylon know that Dorisâ kid had a fever?
Waylon took long strides. Lily couldnât keep up with him with her fitted long skirt, so she had to let go of him.
Waylon even walked into the lobby alone.
âMr. Waylon, wait for me!â Lily hurriedly lifted her skirtâs hem and caught up with him.
