In the end, he did not bring himself to ask her that. Sooner or later, he would make sure she had him on her mind all the
on it.
The two went to the restaurant on the first floor, which had a very unique ambient.
There were large window walls by the dining table covered with a white tablecloth, and there was even a vase with flowers
Obviously, there were private chefs in the restaurant on this floor.
As soon as the two entered the door, a waitress in a black dress and a white apron came to greet them.
“Mr. Hilton, this way please.”
The two of them sat by the window walls where they could see the bamboo forest in the courtyard and the creek behind the
bamboo forest.
The environment was impeccable. Elizabeth wondered if the restaurant they had been to at noon was the same place.
The place looked completely different from how it looked at noon.
Matthew held the menu and was about to order. He already knew what kind of food would be to her liking Also, she did
not seem to like making orders.
She would often hesitate after looking at the price, and she would end up passing the menu back to him.
“Mr. Hilton, you’ll order ”
She had indeed suffered too much to be so frugal, which made her very different from other women.
Elizabeth propped her chin, looking out at the creek.
A smile flashed on her face as she said, “It’s so beautiful here!”

Matthew returned the menu to the waiter, and the latter left with a smile.
“Elizabeth, have you thought about what kind of life you want to live in the future?”
There was a hint of anticipation on Matthew’s handsome face. He wanted to know more about her thoughts.
He did not know enough about her, so he wished to discover more sides about her.
After pondering for a brief moment, Elizabeth replied, “Nothing much. I only wish that my three children will be healthy and happy, and I can afford to buy a house, giving them a real home. Mr. Hilton, you have no idea what it’s like to live in a rented house. Sometimes, when the landlord wanted to use the house, they’d just tell us to move. I once took the kids out and sat on the roadside at night. I felt so sorry for them, but they didn’t mind at all. They were even counting the stars in the sky.”

Her children were like a gift sent to her to repay her kindness.
Hearing that, Matthew could imagine the picture of the family of four sitting on their luggage by the roadside.
“What happened in the end?” asked Matthew.
I could have helped her if I had known her earlier.
A smile crept up Elizabeth’s face as she replied, “It was Dominic who picked us up and brought us to the hotel.

Matthew subconsciously glanced at the sweater he was wearing upon hearing Dominic’s name.
That was one of his favorite clothes lately, but it was knitted by her for Dominic.
“Elizabeth, knit me a sweater too,” said Matthew calmly as he picked up the cutleries to scoop some dishes for her.
Elizabeth was momentarily stunned after taking a bite of the dish. It tasted so good. She had not eaten such delicious food.
in a long time.
It seems that I could always enjoy sumptuous meals whenever I’m having a meal with him.
“Mr. Hilton, since you’re so rich, I think there are at least a hundred sweaters in your wardrobe. The ones I knit don’t look
good, and they’re not comfortable to wear.”

What she had said was the truth. She was clumsy, and it took a few months to knit a sweater, so she might as well buy
Matthew’s expression darkened. “I’ve been taking care of your children for a day. Do I not deserve to get you to knit me at

Elizabeth was slightly irritated. Of course, he’ll ask me to repay the favor after doing something for me,
At the thought of how much fun her three children had had today, she could only knit it for him even though she was
exhausted.
“Okay, I’ll go buy wool tomorrow and knit it for you. What color do you
like?”
