Warren’s tone was indifferent, devoid of any emotion.
Isabelle froze, her heart almost jumping out of her throat.
How did Warren come to the kitchen?
Warren stared at Isabelle’s suddenly drooping face for a moment, without saying anything. His slender fingers covered her pale hand. Warren picked up the kitchen utensils and skillfully and elegantly placed the vegetables into the pot, pouring water to boil.
Isabelle was in a state of confusion, not understanding why Warren still wanted to get close to her.
She struggled to break free from Warren’s unusually scorching embrace, unsure of how to evade him.
Warren reminded, “The water boiled.”
His nasal voice was very heavy. Was he having a cold?
“Oh.” Isabelle stiffly went to pick up the pot.
Warren helped her by lifting and pouring the water directly.
Tara wandered around at the kitchen door, with a smile on her face.
Isabelle turned around and saw Tara. Upon further reflection, she understood Warren’s meaning.
She pretended to cooperate and no longer avoided him. Warren ordered, “Add a little oil.”

Isabelle went to fetch the oil pot. Her pinky finger instinctively lifted, delicate and gentle. After pouring a little oil, she waited for him to remind her.
Warren squinted his eyes and looked at Isabelle’s delicate fingers. His voice was hoarse as he said, “Pour again.”
“Put the vegetables.” he said.
Isabelle hastily picked up the vegetables and put them in. She was not very skilled at stir–frying.
Warren held her small hand and picked up the spatula.
They were so close to each other, and the kitchen was warm. Isabelle felt her body warming up at that moment.
But is this really not just the last illusion before waking up from a dream?
Maybe Warren also knew. So, Warren was willing to get closer to her in this final moment.
Isabelle felt as if her heart had been pricked by a needle, causing a sharp pain. She silently wished for time to pass more slowly.
Slow down a little more…
But these few dishes were quickly made in the end.
Warren walked out of the kitchen, resuming his cold demeanor.
On the luxurious marble long table, it quickly filled up with sumptuous dishes, cakes, desserts, and exquisite wine glasses.
Tara lit romantic candles and invited Isabelle to take a seat.

The spacious dining table only had three people sitting.
Tara, however, was particularly happy and sighed, “In the past, it was just Warren and me celebrating the New Year, and it felt empty and lonely. Now we have Bella and her little baby in her belly. Although there are still few people, you will become happier and happier in the future.”
Tara’s face lit up with joy.
Isabelle’s face stiffened, and she murmured bitterly in her heart, “Will we become happier and happier?”
No. This is the first time we celebrate together, and also the last time. right?
Warren remained silent, his face expressionless, sitting on the opposite side.
Warren poured himself a glass of red wine, shook the glass, and drank it with a cold expression.
The silent atmosphere spread across the dining table. Tara paused for a moment and then nudged Warren, “Don’t you have something to say to Bella?”
Warren put down his glass, wiped his thin lips with a napkin, and looked at Isabelle with a cold and mysterious gaze.
Isabelle froze for a moment, her heart seemed to be locked inside a sealed box, unable to breathe.
She knew what Warren wanted to say. She had also been waiting.
She caused trouble for Warren’s company. Harmo Real Estate suffered significant losses. Warren will not forgive her.

That’s fine too, they will cut ties completely in the future.
Isabelle’s fingertips trembled slightly, as if a needle had pricked them, causing her unbearable pain.
Warren, however, got up and walked over, holding a velvet box in his hand. The sapphire blue box passed through the romantic candlelight and arrived in front of Isabelle.
His long legs leaned against the edge of the table. Warren lowered his head, his cold and deep eyes fixed on Isabelle, “You open it.”
Isabelle, in astonishment, opened the box.
Inside the box was a beautiful diamond ring, which left Isabelle stunned.
Warren’s low voice sounded gloomy, “Isabelle.”
“I won’t ask you again if you intentionally made mistakes in the bid document. I can forgive this mistake.”
“If you were trying to make me angry and upset with the mistake in the bid proposal, in order to leave me and be with Amy, then give up. I don’t agree.”
His eyes were particularly dark and cold. “What problem did we have between us? I still don’t understand. It seems like we are about to break
up.”
He gave a slight smile, with a hint of mockery and a touch of pain in his eyes.
Isabelle’s heart clenched. She bit her lip tightly, afraid that this pain would engulf her.
Warren looked at her deeply and whispered, “I didn’t want to break up,

nor did I want to lose you! I’m giving you time to consider whether to wear this ring. This is our last chance. If you don’t wear it tomorrow morning, I won’t force you anymore.”
He decisively finished speaking and turned back to his seat. The cold- hearted Warren has always been aloof.
What was he doing just now?
Isabelle’s heart trembled.
Warren proposed to her!
Isabelle stared blankly at the ring. The ring had a simple design, but it was adorned with a rare pink diamond in the center.
Was it meant to imply that she was extremely rare?
Isabelle’s hands were trembling, hidden under the table. Tara held her hand and placed the diamond ring in her palm, then closed her hand. Tara smiled earnestly and said, “Bella, this was personally designed by him. You must wear it. I can testify that he has never said such words in his entire life.”
Isabelle’s heart ached unbearably.
Her mind was filled with astonishment and pain. Isabelle couldn’t bear it anymore, she couldn’t stay here any longer, afraid of being exposed.
She suddenly stood up and pretended to be about to vomit, “I’m sorry Maybe the baby kicked me and made me feel a bit nauseous. Tara, I’m going to the restroom.”
Isabelle fled in the face of Warren’s desolate gaze.
She almost sprinted towards the bathroom, abruptly closed the door, and quickly turned the faucet to the maximum.

With the sound of flowing water, Isabelle trembled as she pursed her lips and released her left hand. The warm diamond ring shimmered in the palm of her hand.
The edges of the diamond ring were sharp like a blade, cutting into her heart with each passing moment.
Warren should not have been gentle with her.
Isabelle thought, “Warren, are you silly?”
“Why didn’t you kick me away? Do you know what I was going to do?”
“I was going to seek revenge on you!”
Why did you propose to me?
“You were so down yesterday. Why did you still tolerate me? Harmo Real Estate had such a big issue, why didn’t you abandon me?”
At this moment, all the answers emerged in Isabelle’s heart. Warren had truly fallen in love with her… he had infinite patience for her and even wanted to keep her after the incident.
Warren said he didn’t want to lose her.
He loved her to such an extent.
Isabelle seemed to have seen Warren just now, handing over his heart to her.
But she held a blade of hatred. She would pierce Warren’s heart, make him bleed, and hurt him.
Before hurting him, she had already hurt herself deeply.
Isabelle was in so much pain that she couldn’t breathe. She stared at

the ring, curled up in the corner. Tears fell. She sobbed hoarsely, repeatedly asking, “Mom, why did it have to be like this?”
“Why did Warren, whom I loved, harm you back then?”
“If only it wasn’t him as the enemy, how nice it would be.”
“I wanted to be with him. I wanted to have children with him. I wanted to wear this ring and live happily with him. Why couldn’t it be…”
