âI donât understand.
What do you mean?â Theodore wasnât used to reading romance novels, let alone web novels.
So the details Ariana pointed out puzzled him.
âHeâs the kind of person who took the woman he loves for granted at first.
When he realizes his mistakes, he strives to win her heart back through fair means or foul.
Alas, he fails in the end.
â While explaining the plot of the novel to Theodore who seemed more and more puzzled, Ariana picked up her fork to start eating.
Who would have thought that one day, Theodore, who had been a valedictorian in a world-renowned school, would be so perplexed by something so simple one day?
At the thought of this, Arianaâs smile broadened.
âOh⦠I see.
â Theodore sighed and explained helplessly, âI picked this book because it was in the top three of the list of most popular novels.
As a matter of fact, itâs even reached the top of the list today, and I think thatâs for a reason.
â
Didnât he know why the book was on the top of the list? It was because of the mind-blowing amount of tips he had given.
Hearing Theodoreâs explanation, Ariana wanted to burst out laughing, but she held it back and didnât speak her thoughts out either.
It was all Soniaâs fault.
Those novels she had written could only cause embarrassment when others inspired themselves with the plot to pursue the women they loved.
âyou donât like it?â Theodore asked Ariana, looking at her with a gloomy face.
He had never put any effort into pursuing a woman before, and while he was a little clumsy, he certainly had no intention of causing Ariana any trouble.
Ariana wanted to answer bluntly, as she really didnât like those methods to pursue a woman.
But when she thought about what happened today, she couldnât help but smile.
Her heart softened and she felt touched by all his gestures of love.
She was overwhelmed with a feeling of warmth and sweetness.
Theodore was a man who believed that time is literally money, yet he was willing to spend time reading novels and doing a lot of silly things for her.
There was not much to complain about.
âWell, I love it.
Thank you, Mr.
Anderson,â Ariana said at last with a huge smile.
Ariana wanted to hold his hand but she restrained her desire.
Instead, looking him.
in the eye, she said seriously, âBut thereâs a difference between the fantasy world in the novels and reality.
I think we should go on dates like normal people do.

âWhat do you mean?â Theodore asked humbly.
Ariana tilted her head and pondered for a while about how to explain it.
Then she said seriously, âIâll arrange the next date, okay?â
After dinner, Theodore did not forget his game and kept his gentlemanly demeanor.
He looked at Ariana and said politely, âI wonder if Iâm qualified to drive you home, Miss Edwards.
â
Ariana pretended to think for a minute before finally giving him her address.
Although they were both aware that this was all just a game, they just couldnât get enough of this.
When they got to the apartment building, Ariana got out of the car first.
She didnât leave immediately, however.
She took a few steps leisurely, waiting for the man behind her to follow.
When Theodore caught up with her, Ariana turned to him and said with a frown, âDo you think itâs appropriate for you to spend the night at a ladyâs house after just a first date?â
