In the hospital, Seraphina had just set her phone down when a rhythmic knock echoed from the door- steady and not urgent.

She felt an instinctual knowledge of who stood outside

"Come in," she called.

Wilson pushed the door open, standing tall and graceful. His modest demeanor and warm presence made him stand out, an innate elegance that was impossible to overlook. "Did I disturb your rest?" he asked.

Seraphina smiled lightly and said, "Not at all."

Wilson held a pink food container. He placed it in front of her and asked softly, "Are you hungry? My chef's skills are just average, but if you're hungry, you can manage a few bites." Seraphina felt a pang of guilt as she glanced at him, her smile turning shy.

"I just ate."

Wilson paused, his hand hovering over the container before he closed it back up.

"Alright, I won't torment your taste buds then."

Out of nowhere, Wilson produced a beautifully round orange, its vibrant color and sheen glowing in the light. It looked delicious.

His eyes and sounds were gentle as he said, "This is for you."

Seraphina blinked, momentarily taken aback by the sight of the orange.

She had received numerous gifts, including jewelry, diamond necklaces, and luxury items that sparkled with their extravagance.

Despite its small size and glossy skin, this little orange managed to find its way into her heart.

A slight quiver stirred within her chest, softening her resolve.

Even before tasting it, she could almost sense its sweet and tangy flavor.

She reached out and took it, striving to ignore the whirlwind of emotions inside her..

With a composed demeanor, she looked at him, a polite smile on her lips.

"Where did you get this from?"

"When I parked just now, a vendor selling oranges accidentally bumped his truck against my car door. He seemed a bit nervous, so I took an orange as compensation," Wilson explained, his voice flowing like a gentle stream, pleasant to hear. Seraphina raised an eyebrow at the thought. His car was a low-key luxury vehicle, and the repair cost

Yet, that was so typical of Wilson-kind and warm-hearted.

"Well, that little orange must be the most expensive one in the world!" she teased.

Wilson agreed wholeheartedly. "Exactly! I wanted you to give it a try and see if there's anything special about it."

His gaze made Seraphina's cheeks flush slightly.

She turned to the window, admiring the clear blue sky, devoid of clouds.Text © by N0ve/lDrama.Org.

"Let's wait another thirty minutes to eat it. Eating fruit right after a meal can be overwhelming."

Wilson paused a little. He seemed to recall something and pulled out his phone.

"By the way, little Dani has been eager to have video call you since the day before yesterday. Would you like to see him now?

He was humble and respected her wish.

"Of course," Seraphina replied eagerly.

She had been missing that clever little boy.

In no time, Wilson set up the video call. Soon, little Dani's chubby, handsome face appeared on the screen.

"Daddy, I miss you so much! Can I come see you?"

Dani behaved cutely and voiced his grievances.

Wilson was not moved. He forced a smile and said, "No, you can't."

He was all too familiar with Dani's tactics.

Did this r*scal miss him?

Dani is clearly trying to get closer to Seraphina!

Wilson had no intention of letting Dani hang around her all day, whispering about his old man's shortcomings. That would surely ruin his chances!

Seraphina couldn't help but chuckle, extending her hand toward the screen. She said, "I want to see him."

Wilson passed the phone to her. The moment Dani saw her face, he jumped up with excitement.

"Ms. Lovely!"

Seraphina beamed at him and asked, "Dani, have you been good?"

"Of course! I recently won the International Youth Robotics Competition! I'm super awesome!" He exclaimed, usually modest but unable to contain his pride in front of Ms. Lovely..

As the youngest champion, his promotion from the children's group to the youth group was a remarkable feat, already making waves in the field.

Seraphina praised him. Dani's joy soared, practically floating in delight.

From the side, Wilson scoffed quietly-this boy actually boasting about that menial accomplishment?

Dani heard that. He wasn't too thrilled about it.

"I'm having a private chat with Ms. Lovely! Anyone else should leave!"
